Hello everybody. May I introduce myself to you? My name is Fabrice; I work for the French subsidiary of a major software company. I’m in HR and we recently have introduced the TOEIC as a tool to measure our employees’ English language competence. My task is to organize specific TOEIC training classes and integrate the TOEIC into our existing training programs. We are also planning to offer TOEIC prep courses to other companies and professionals.
OK; enough about the TOEIC, I understand that in this section of the forum new members can introduce themselves and talk about social topics. So, once again, greetings from Paris and hopefully we can will become friends!

Hello KO9, thanks for expressing your interest in France. Paris is indeed an outstanding city though it can require a lot of energy to here at times. As for ?cole Polytechnique (pleased mind spelling) yes of course I know this university, many of my colleagues have studies there.
Have you ever been to France or any other European country? Why do you are you so passionate about France?
Hi, what is HR ?
Hello tortoise. HR is abbreviation which stands for Human Resources. Human Resources is an department of a company that is responsible for recruiting, training and developing the staff of that company.
OK., thanks.
Well, do many people speak English in France? French is also an international language, so I think there are not many French people who speak English…
Hello tortoise. Yes of course French is also an important language but English is the language of international business, science and technology. That’s why more and more people in France are learning English. As you probably know English contains many words that are of French origin so it’s quite easy for any French person to understand English.
Hi toeic,
I’ve studied French for 2 years in school. But I find it difficult to learn French. It’s difficult to remember that the word is “masculin” or “femelle”. I have 3 periods of French and 3 periods of English a week. It’s not too much.
Can you give me some advice to learn French better?
Regards.
Hello Tortoise, does your nickname have anything to do with the pace at which you are learning languages? Just a joke 
You ask how you can learn French. The methods and techniques are certainly the same you are using to learn English. You should listen to French radio stations, watch movies in French, read articles and books in French. And of course you can talk to French speakers in French. Also, you might want to try audio language programs such as Pimsleur or online resources.
well hello!!!
greetings from the US
