In this episode, I will speak to my husband, Bill who is getting ready to go on a ski trip in Western Canada with some of his friends. We will talk about where he is going, with whom, what training he has done up until now to get ready for the touring part of the trip and of course, what benefits he gets out of these trips in complete nature. You will see that the verb to master here is the verb ALLER which is irregular. I will put it in my notes so that you can review it. Have fun listening!

In this episode, I am talking about this special day that is the 2nd of February and the traditions around this date. You will discover that in some parts of the world, we make crêpes and we also predict how long the winter in Canada or Northern America will be. To support this podcast, I am including the recipe for the crêpes which are described in the audio. Hopefully, you will have some time today to make and taste them and most importantly, you will have time to breathe in and out. 

This episode is about the end of 2021 and the beginning of 2022. An introspection about starting my own company, juggling working from home and home schooling and most importantly, about accepting failures and embracing them as lessons to learn. In this episode, I also explain how important it is to stop feeling guilty about under-achievements. Success can be measured in so many ways and we all have different starting points.

Here is an interview with my son Etienne. He will talk about his passions, his school, his favorite books and most importantly, his cat. He loves him! In this episode, you will see how Etienne asks me how to clarify some of the questions I asked him and you will also learn new words such as truc which means thing in oral French.

This is an episode with my daughter Rosaleen who is 11 years old. Here, she talks about her life at school and being in her last grade of primary school. 

You will notice her accent from Quebec which I find fascinating, being originally from France. You will also notice how certain structures (mainly hypothetical sentences) are more difficult for her to master. I will include a document on conditional tense to help you if you are experiencing some difficulties like Rosaleen.

In this episode, I introduce you to my husband, Bill. He will share with you his background growing up in Ottawa, going to a French immersion programme. He will also open up about some of his struggles learning French. One of them is knowing when a word is feminine or masculine. For this notion, I have attached a document which should, hopefully, help. 

In this episode, I will introduce myself and the reasons why I created this podcast.
