30-DAY STORYLEARNING® CHALLENGE


101 Essential French Verbs

Master 101 fluency-boosting French verbs in all tenses in the next 30 days and "unblock" your French with our August challenge!

Start Date: August 1st

Level: A2/B1 (Upper Beginner / Lower Intermediate)

Does your lack of verbs stop you from expressing yourself confidently in French?

Do you regularly find yourself stumbling over verb conjugations and just “having a guess” which form to use?

You’re not alone!

French learners the world over have a hard time mastering enough verbs to express themselves like intelligent adults in real-life, “non-scripted” conversations.

The result?

You’re stuck in the dreaded “quicksand” of basic French.

You can hold your own and manage reasonably well in French in certain basic situations….

… but when it comes to maintaining real, spontaneous conversations on a perse range of topics… you simply can’t keep up or express yourself clearly!

The prime culprit: French verbs.

Verbs are the most important building block of any language because we use them to express actions.

In French, they’re especially important. You literally can’t form a single French sentence without verbs.

So anything other than a rock-solid knowledge of a wide-range of French verbs ain’t gonna cut the mustard.

I don’t mean the basic verbs like manger, penser or écrire that you know inside out.

I mean more nuanced verbs like:

  • enlever
  • éteindre
  • pertir
  • parvenir
  • paumer
  • ... and many more!

Here’s the truth:

These are the verbs that really unlock your speaking and bring life to your French conversations.

Because they allow you to express yourself in a more eloquent and nuanced way, and in a wider variety of situations.

That’s why I’ve created this unique 30-Day Challenge - “101 Essential French Verbs”.

This challenge will help you master 101 essential French verbs in all tenses in just 30 days, so you can express yourself confidently in French in any context!

No more frustrating silences.

No more embarrassing verb conjugation mistakes.

And most importantly… no more “surface-level only” French conversations.

By the end of this challenge, you’ll be armed with a wide range of French verbs and know how to use them confidently in any verb tense, so you can start enjoying truly meaningful conversations with native French speakers, no matter the context.


Introducing the August Challenge:

"101 Essential French Verbs"

With...


Here’s how the challenge works.

The challenge is based on an exciting original story in French that develops over the 30 days of the challenge.

This is a brand new story, written exclusively for this 30-Day Challenge.

We’ve created the story to be jam-packed with hundreds of examples of the most important French verbs in ALL tenses.

Every day, you’ll receive one new chapter of the story, along with short video lessons and simple exercises to help you understand the verbs used in the story.

It'll take you about 15 minutes each day.

All you have to do is show up every day…

Over the course of the month, the daily immersion will help you absorb 101 fluency-boosting French verbs naturally, until they just “sound right” to you and you can use them instinctively and confidently to bring life to your spoken French.

You’ll be able to speak French more freedom and fluency, because the verbs you need will already be where you need them - on the tip of your tongue!

Here's What's Included...

The concept is beautifully simple!

Every day, for 30 days, you’ll get:

  • One 250-word chapter of our French story (jam-packed with examples of these essential French verbs)
  • The written story plus audio book (so you can read or listen...wherever you are!)
  • A short 5-minute video lesson with our instructor, Nolwenn. (She’ll explain the verbs in the story)
  • A short daily practice exercise (to help you remember what you’ve learned)
  • Discussion with dozens of fellow challengers in our interactive Facebook group (so you can discuss the story and get answers to questions).

We’ve carefully structured the entire 30 days, so all you have to do is turn up and get stuck in!

Frequently Asked Questions


What level is the challenge for?
Both the story and the lesson content is aimed at A2-B1 level. (That's high-beginner to low-intermediate). In other words, this is for you if you've been studying French for a little while (or maybe a long while!) and can understand at least some French, but struggle to express yourself in a comfortable and natural way.
How can I access the challenge?
Mobile, desktop, laptop, tablet... The challenge is super user-friendly and you'll be able to log on from anywhere!
What exactly will I learn? How will this challenge help me?
During this challenge, we'll focus on 101 essential French verbs in ALL verb tenses, recycled over and over throughout the story. You'll see these verbs used in different tenses and contexts over and over in the story. This means you'll master the most important French verbs to the point where they're effortless and automatic, and you instinctively know how to use them in conversation.
What if it's too hard, or my level is too low?
To make the challenge achievable, we've kept each chapter short - only 250 words! This means that you'll be able to easily make it to the end of the chapter each day, even if it does take you a little longer. However, the daily video lessons will give you all the support you need, as you'll have clear, professional explanations of how the verbs are used in the story. This means that, even if you're really unsure about these French verbs right now, just by watching and studying the daily videos, you'll learn to think about them like a native speaker by the end of the challenge. If I had my way, this is the only way students would ever learn French!
What's so special about this "StoryLearning" method anyway?
Most French students try to learn French through rules and rote memorisation. This doesn't work, and is extremely stressful for you as a learner. Why? Because there are lots of so-called "rules" to learn and it's impossible to hold them all in your head at the same time while you're speaking. It's also not a natural approach ... native speakers don't learn the language with rules, after all! With the "101 Essential French Verbs" challenge, you'll learn through example and context, just like native speakers do! The magic of learning through story is that your main focus is actually not on the memorising anything... you concentrate on understanding and enjoying the story! As you're reading and listening to the story, these fluency-boosting verbs will begin to lodge themselves subconsciously in your brain. It doesn't happen right away - in fact it may take a couple of weeks for you to feel the real effects. But by the end of the 30 days, you'll have a native-like command of French verbs that will amaze you.
I'm not sure I can commit for 30 days
Your daily commitment is only 15 minutes. This is because the principle of the challenge is that "little and often is the best way to learn". 15 minutes is a pretty manageable amount of time to devote to your French. You can fit it in comfortably: • before breakfast • during your lunch break • after dinner • ...even while waiting for the bus! The power is in the consistency - working at it for a short time every day. You'll be amazed at the huge progress you make from simply showing up every day to work on one area of your French! Remember, you get the audio of the story, as well as the text, so you can easily take part and keep up wherever you happen to be!
What if I am unhappy with the challenge?
I would never want you to be unhappy! If you are unsatisfied with the challenge, contact me at any point during the challenge and I'll issue you full and prompt refund.
How long do I have access to the course after the end of the challenge?
How does lifetime access sound? After enrolling, you have unlimited access to this course for as long as you like - across any and all devices you own.
