Textbook: Cosmopolite 1 - A1 - course book with DVD [978-3-19-003386-7]

Mamaroon:
Truth is anything worth doing well will probably cost you. In time, in resources AND money!!!

It seems very expensive but I would advise you to start with the initial set of classes and see how it goes. You may decide after A1 that you are confident (and disciplined) enough for self study. Also explore getting a tutor, they must abound in Cotonou, surely!

Yes brother. I am willing to burn this bridge. I have reached out my Sec. School teacher, we will finalize and I know if he can coach me too. I don't know how to get the Cotonou tutors, if u have any reliable one there, u can show me. Thanks for commenting.

Sir, I hear 2 concerns. 1 is : Can I realistically take the TEF exam early next year starting prep from June? Well, Yes. at least 2 people here have passed the TEF learning from scratch in 6 months.

2. Can I subsidize my learning approach? Yes. I'm personally biased towards self-study. However I recommend a blended approach. Start using self study resources (especially Michel Thomas and Frenchpod), practice (structured) with your French friends..and then register for a higher level class (B1/B2) later. You need to be disciplined however. Find a schedule and stick to it. If this is difficult, I strongly recommend the class you're wary of paying for (see it as motivation price I.e...you can't afford to lose it).

Thank you my brother, you answered it all, I appreciate. I will stick to your advise to find a way of cutting cost. I will do some self study, write the level language exam to be sure I got it all. Thank you.

My brothers I need your help and advice please

So I have concluded to start the French learning, I am looking at writing the TEF Canada exam early next year.

Since am not in Nigeria, I have made an online search and with the recommendation of my Morocco friend, I want to apply for institute of Francaise here in Berlin to start their intensive class lectures scheduled for June. The spaces remaining is just for 3 persons now I checked.

My concern is the price and if this goal is very realistic considering am new to the language and will be starting from A1.1. The price for the class lecture is 315€ which is about 130k, that means a complete A1 will be about 260k. I have interest in class organisation since am just starting off. By the time I would have learnt til B2, it will be 1m plus. My major concern is if this is achievable. Language is not easy, only the German language I did, I know how e be for me.

Guys please advise me on how to go about this, possibly to cut costs and meet my target. Any suggestions for other alternatives will be welcome as this Institute of Francaise Is not specifically structured for TEF exams writing.

I can also boast of a lot of contact here that are native French that I will be meeting for more assistance like my Morocco guy.

Please is the price not too much? What other suggestions guys abeg will u give me? I have procastinated this too much and just had my birthday last Monday, so e dawned on me am already getting old and late.

Cruelty at it's peak, a lady for God's sake, mtcheew. Am pained really

Modified: A lot of people have asked what of if it is a man? This is too brutal for a slimmest excuse of coming out to buy sth in lock down.

No one deserves that, not even a guy, but then if u as a man can raise cane and flog a lady like this, then sth big is wrong with you, u are a time bomb ......

These men u see here definitely are wife beaters.

Guys quoting me, i believe u understand what my real message is. A grown up lady flogged like where d are flogging cows with no modicum of humanity, u can only imagine what it would have been if it was a guy, that is why d police shoots are mostly with guys.

The system is very reprehensible and barbaric.

We are given to deceiving ourselves with specs we either don't really use or know its value. Can you tell me effect that will be for the P60 under basic usage. For those that claim advance users, if you check well, is game.

Hello friends.
Please o how do I begin to learn French. I am a total beginner. I will appreciate a honest guide on how to begin so that I can write the TEF exam.
Please as a complete beginner how long is it likely going to take me to study before I can get a decent result ?
I am in Abuja, I will be glad if anyone can suggest a good study centre..
Thanks.

GentleChief:
You dont have any relative that you can send Euros to and they fund your account with Naira?

Well this your particular statement shows you have exhausted any sensible point.

Sorry sir, we are done on this topic. This your 2nd comment is redundant. FYI, I have a buyer from here already, only that the amount he want is not up to my account, i am already working on completing the required fund, but should it not proceed, am not selling on NL again, I think I can still get guys here that has naira at home for transaction. So save ur....
Thank you for your understanding.

Disclaimer: I have withdrawn my comment on requesting for Naira transaction, i remember Honorableseyi etc had their monikers coined to defraud unsuspecting people. Please don't PM anyone answering Chriswazo for financial transaction, except you know him well and do recognize him. Please, thanks.

GentleChief:
Hmmmm.... Not that am doubting anybody ooo. Am not calling anybody a thief oo.

But I wonder what type of costs anybody will be avoiding that will make you loose guard over 4 million to a total stranger. This goes vice versa

Why intentions maybe right, I know it within me that criminals monitor this thread a lot too.

No matter how genuine it may look, save yourself the stress by going through the bank route and paying the normal fees

If you are sending money to Germany, please and please use access bank. Open a fintiba account. Open access bank Euro domiciliary account. Fund it with Euro. If you dont know how to detect fake or torn Euros, tell the Mallam or BDC guy to follow you into access. Once he funds your account, you transfer the Naira equivalent into his account. Then approach the bank manager or the people incharge of foreign transactions. Tell them you want to send money to Germany. They will give you a form to fill and move the Euro from your account to the designated account number Fintiba gave you. Within 3 days, your money will appear in your account in Germany!

N.B
Access Bank cant send more than a certain amount at a go. You have to transfer the money twice. All these costs less than 20k per transaction when I did my own. I don't know the charges now.

Again, I don't think its advisable to go through GT Bank. During my initial trial, they accepted only 1000 Euros deposit per week. This means it will take you over 10 weeks to fund your dorm account with them.

Whichever way, its far better than entrusting your money to a total stranger. People are VERY MEAN AND HEARTLESS IN THIS PART OF THE WORLD. THEY WILL WIPE YOU WITHOUT THINKING TWICE. I CAN BET MY BALLS THAT THESE WIPERS MONITOR THIS FORUM ON DAILY BASIS.

BE SMART AND STOP THINKING HOW TO CUT CORNERS! THANKS.

Before you follow this seemingly cheaper route, ask yourself one question; IS THE RISK WORTH IT?

You spoke rightly sir, I expected this kind of comment. If it were me, I doubt if I will do it. I made that statement cos I need naira and thinks is better to transact with someone that has naira at home.

You really spoke well, during my time, I discouraged guys from using someone that wanted to do it for guys on the WhatsApp group then, so I will also tell the people I quoted to be careful.

Btw, I have been here for a while now, then have built relationships out of here that knows me physically, my school, my address in Germany etc, my full names cos we are also friends on Facebook. I have a lot and a lot of them here.
Is more risky I think if is someone that is new or not well known. Some of us sent money to guys too that we heard a lot here to help us with funding and payments. I think you know some names already that are being recommended. During my time, when the euros started climbing again, I was told to get people there that I trusted that could do it, I contacted a lot of people that I know I could trust there but d all said d didn't have up to that amount. D even linked me up to people I didn't know but on their words, I tried with them too but then their prices were ridiculous too, even higher than I was getting with BDC then before I opted for Access Bank route. Some guys I wrote to then , I have never spoken to them here before or pm, but I did a little check on them when d were suggested to me, before enquiring from them. If you doubt me, I can also provide their monikers, so am not talking about what I wouldn't do. When I needed dorm account referrals, d all came from here, from people that don't know me and have never seen me before then, d saw d need and risked it for me based on their possible findings about me. I have returned that favour to some others too since after then.

So while you are right sir, there's also an exception to that. I will be surprise if someone like Hadampson that knows me well with my full names, up to my many pictures and family connections and friends from a platform, will come and write here, he doesn't trust me, that would really be weird.

Is all about doing your assignment well, [s]me I need naira, so I won't withdraw that statement[/s]. I hope you do understand sir. Thank you.

I don't think the opening post has any denigrating meaning to women. What she wrote is akin to the virtuous woman described in Proverbs 30.

As per the bolded, women do not need men to live a fulfilled and vice-versa. However, they need each other to make the fulfillment beautiful and smooth as helpmates.

One will chase one thousand and two will chase ten thousand.

No matter the level of knowledge available, there is a divine order that can't be broken irrespective of what we humans do.

Between, she is a female not male.

The beauty of the Umidigi Power 3 is, after a 12 hour day of near enough constant use, using Umidigi Upods all the way (YouTube, web surfing, small downloads, listening to online radio stations, bit of deezer, bit of Spotify etc etc.....

You are guaranteed to only lose under 50%, from a fully charged battery......

So with Umidigi Power 3, i can say with umiauthority..... That you would never need to recharge your Umidigi Power 3, within the same 24 hour cycle...........

Same with my phone, is not a big thing again.
