About the site

The French Journey is here to support your French language learning.

The site will do that with videos, audio, diagrams in a generally less text intensive way to learn, yet aiming to give you a more complete experience than you’d get in books or private tuition alone.

It works in a blog kind of way, you can sign up to the RSS feed for your convenience, you can interact with the author, me, via the comments and you can tell as many people as you like to come and look at the site, anybody’s welcome, no matter what stage they’re at. At the very least there will be some light entertainment.

I outline the site plan in this post, so please take a look: Welcome to the next step

My name is Luke Spear, I am a freelance translator from French to English (and Swedish to English). I’m a member of the Chartered Institute of Linguists, the Federation of Small Businesses and the Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire Chambers of Commerce. More information available on my site: lukespear.co.uk

I also run linguistdb.com, bringing free visibility to freelance translators and linguists around the world.
