Watching French movies and TV shows is a great way to refresh your French, especially if you’re trying to pick it back up again after several years (or even decades). But unlike watching Netflix in your native language, which is meant for relaxing and fun… watching Netflix in French can often be mentally draining.
In today’s lesson, I want to offer my tips on how to effectively use French Netflix as a learning tool, without mentally exhausting yourself. This way, you can scratch that itch to learn modern, everyday French and have more fun doing it!
Take care and stay safe.

At Comme une Française, we specialize in everyday spoken French. We focus on three unique aspects that are different from school French, self-study books, Duolingo, etc:
1. We focus only on the specifics of speaking/understanding/being understood in everyday French and have unique ways to help you learn it properly & faster.
2. We focus on shortcuts to help you make progress faster, which also means we tell you exactly what you can stop learning to prioritize what’s really important.
3. We use French culture as the subject to make it fun and interesting for adults.
Take care and stay safe.
