We started talking about language and learning French 'grammaire'. His advice? Learn a lot of vocabulary, the present, the futur present, the passe compose and pretty much ignore the other verb tenses, because no one uses them except in literature.

If you want a dose of France, you can download France Bleu, which is an app that plays the regional radio stations.
