How long to learn French ?

 How to learn French fast? How long does it take to learn French? This is perhaps the  most common question from students who wish to learn French. 

How long a student needs to learn French will depend on several factors, with some taking a  longer time than others. How long it finally takes will depend on several factors discussed  below. 

1. Desired Proficiency level 

You can speak French or any other language at different proficiency levels. For instance, a  French lawyer will use a much more sophisticated language (higher proficiency level) compared  to a French child (lower proficiency level), although both of them are fluent  in French! Consequently, if you simply wish to attain Beginner Level proficiency, 40-60 hours of  learning will be sufficient. However, to reach an advanced level of proficiency, much more hours  are needed! 

2. Available time for learning 

The time that you can set aside for learning French will definitely affect your progress. Hence, it  will take a busy person a much longer time to learn French compared to someone with much  time at his disposal. 

3. Gaps in between classes 

How long it takes to learn French also depends on gaps in between classes. Longer gaps in better  classes means more chances to forget what you have previously learned. Ideally, we  recommend a maximum of 2 days gap in between lessons for maximum retention. 

4. Mother tongue influence 

Your mother tongue can deeply influence how long you take to learn French, especially French  pronunciation. There is such a thing called mother tongue influence that mostly impacts on your  pronunciation of French words. 

5. Knowledge of another 'Romance' language 

Those who know another romance language (such as Italian and Spanish) will be able to learn  French much faster than others. That is because many French words share a similar root with  Italian and Spanish words, making it easier for Italians and Spaniards to correctly guess the  meaning of those words, especially in written French.

6. Knowledge of another foreign language 

If you already know a foreign language (especially another European language) with some  similarities to the French language - such as having the same alphabet, sentence structure,  vocabulary and grammar pattern - it is easier for you to make sense of French as a language.
