Just joined but have read and listened…
Just joined but have read and listened and I can tell this is a great way to learn!
Enjoy the Musicality of the Language
Like many people, I tried apps, books, podcasts and YouTube videos to learn French. They weren’t working. When I first saw Alice on YouTube, I dubbed her “the lady with the white board and corny stories for kids.” It looked amusing, but not a way to learn a language. Boy was I wrong.
After watching her set of 8 YouTube videos on acquiring French the natural way (Re: Stephen Krashen, Beniko Mason and Comprehensible Input) I was hooked. Plus, the subscription was so cheap I figured I had little to lose.
Quelle coïncidence, quelle chance ! that the same morning I subscribed, I stumbled on a live online meeting of community members chatting and reading stories. It was so much fun, and that was just the first day!
I thoroughly enjoyed working my way through the levels and supplemental stories on the site, while attending online community meetings every chance I got. There are meetings to read, meetings to chat, meetings with Alice and meetings to delve deeper into the content. A year later and the site is still a part of my everyday life. Plus, I now have friends from all around the world with whom I connect regularly online.
As Alice will tell you, the French language has a flow and a musicality to it that you just can’t get through an app designed around games and quizzes. Instead, let your brain do the work naturally. By listening and listening and listening to COMPREHENSIBLE stories your brain can’t help but pick it up. You can ACQUIRE the language if you just give it a try.
Focused and helpful, with plenty of useful content
I’ve been studying french off and on for about 6 years, but never found a course or app that held my attention or that really committed to the ‘comprehensible input’ approach. This approach is used very successfully by Alice and it helps the student attach meaning to the words and sounds without translating it back to their mother tongue.
Currently I am only about half way through the courses, placing me in the Teen Stage. But every thing so far has been far more focused and helpful for me than what I’ve tried before.
Additionally there are plenty of supplementary materials for reading and listening! It really is a wealth of content all designed to solidify your French skills.
Excellent French Comprehensible Input
Alice uses the “comprehensible input”method to teach French. This means – all of her lessons are conducted in French. There is 0 English (except maybe in a couple of pre-lessons). As you go through the stages, you build on knowledge from previous lessons, and eventually you find yourself understanding the language.
It really works, but you have to be patient. Alice manages to make each lesson very interesting, and sets the tone. She speaks slowly and clearly (speeding up slightly in the later stages). If you don’t really want to learn French, but need to pass an example (grammar etc), this isn’t the course for you. If you want to learn the language. To be able to watch TV shows in French, and have some level of fluency, this course will be a good starting place. It is probably a bit too easy if you are already ‘advanced’ or fluent. But from beginner to intermediate, it’s extremely good. The only downside, I can think of.. It would be really nice if we could “Cast” the lessons to Chromecast (or similar).
Learning French with no pressure
Learning French with no pressure and no memorization is such a nice change from other methods I have tried when learning French. They use simple sentences that build your vocabulary gradually through repetition, drawings, colors, and emphases on new vocabulary words. Each new story builds from the previous story which helps to recall words or phrases already heard and adds on new words or phrases. It’s exactly the method of learning a language that I have been searching for but could not find anywhere until now. Thank you!
I am enjoying this learning platform
I am enjoying this learning platform. I love the solo option. I can take my time and process this beautiful language. Customer service has been so helpful. I highly recommend this program and I am so thankful for what they offer.

Je l’aime! Merci beaucoup Alice.
Finally learning a language and enjoying it!
I have always wanted to learn a language, and now at 65 years old, I find myself enjoying this journey. Alice makes it all fun and without stress. I am so grateful to this program!!
Love these videos
Love these videos! They’ve been super helpful in my French acquisition process and are just what I’ve been looking for. Thank you so much Alice! You’re the best.
Need a floating pause/play button
The content and the methodology are really good. Thanks. Just one suggestion. While listening to stories, it would be really helpful to have a “floating” button on the page (which can float as we scroll the page) to pause and play the audio. This will help to pause the audio anywhere in the text and look for meanings or to reflect.
Highly effective Method
It is a learning Method is highly effective for beginners aiming to reach a B level proficiency. This approach provides a comprehensive range of materials to facilitate an immersive language learning experience. Tailored for optimal results, it caters to the diverse needs of learners, making it an excellent choice for those embarking on their language learning journey.

I was returning to re-watch videos to help reinforce what I had learned from watching them the first time. Alice is a great instructor, she makes the lessons fun and interesting.
Alice’s approach to learning French is very amazing and I would recommend this approach to learn a new language.
Alice’s approach to learning French is natural and enjoyable. Start at the baby stage and move up. Don’t hesitate to listen to the same story more than once. It’s worth the time. And have fun learning naturally.

Very nice contents for learning French effortlessly & joyfully…contents are very organized and can be marked as played or unplayed…Alice is a wonderful teacher; she & her husband made a great efforts to bring such an easy and amusing experience of learning through the best collection of stories and historical events that widened your knowledge of French language, history and culture.
Thanks Alice & thanks for everyone in your awesome community.
Works for me
I had done a lot of the other usual approaches to learning French and was feeling very frustrated. After finding AliceAyel.com I immediately increased my reading and comprehension knowledge. I have done all the available stages (adult twice) and now I am going through the senior stories for a second time and am reading some of the books from where the excerpts come. I eagerly await the Senior stage. My oral abilities are slowly improving too. Love the method!
Love Alices’ method of learning French
Love Alices’ method of learning French. I have been listening to her stories for over a month aleady and I have learned so much. She has a special way of reaching across other cultures and reviving our appreciation of France, it’s language, and it’s history which is so needed especially in the days we are living. Liberté, égalité, fraternite. Vive Le France!
Loving my French studies!! Merci Alice!
I joined this community a month ago and am thoroughly enjoying Alice’s lessons and all of the other resources. Although I am able to speak French at a low intermediate level, I followed her recommendation and started at the Baby Stage. I am glad that I did! The lessons and stories have been interesting and have built my confidence. Alice weaves French history, culture and everyday life into her lessons and stories. They are accessible to beginners and allow one to naturally acquire the language. I have told many of my friends about the website. It’s fun and it works! Now I have “graduated” to the Infant Stage 🙂
Le français avec Alice…
Mon expérience avec le site est extrêmement bonne. Pour peu d’argent, vous obtenez une grand quantité de matériel d’étude pour aider vous a maitriser le français en peu de temps.
Meine Erfahrungen mit dieser Website sind sehr gut. Für wenig Geld bekommt man eine riesige Menge an Lernmaterial, das einem hilft, Französisch in kurzer Zeit zu beherrschen.
THE BEST !
THE BEST teacher & coach I know for acquiring French naturally through Comprehensible Input. Her creative talents, her innovative approach & dedication to this method of acquiring French never ceases to amaze me. The techniques Alice uses to get the gist across so one does truly comprehend & retain is solid & fun, as is her website. The resources available to Subscribed Community Members seems endless. Merci Alice
A rich source of French comprehensible input
This is such a rich source of comprehensible input for learning French. I really appreciated that the resources start from absolute beginner, because although I have learnt French in the past, at school and as an adult, my French knowledge felt shaky. Going back to the beginning and being able to relax and watch video stories and fully understand them, built my confidence over time.
Perfect for learning French naturally
Perfect for learning French naturally – Alice has made a fantastic site. There’s so much content on the site in addition to the wonderful videos, and it’s updated regularly. Alice is such a good story teller, and she introduces vocabulary repeatedly and over time so you acquire the words naturally. I’ve really enjoyed the site and would highly recommend to anyone who’s learning French.
