Elisabeth Smith has used her wide teaching experience to write a fun audio course that teaches you enough to communicate all your basic needs. The course comes on one 75-minute CD and teaches only the essential words and phrases, which are extended by the use of body language. An accompanying 16-page booklet lists the words and phrases taught on the recording. The action takes place during a flight from London to France. Following a challenge from the passenger in the next seat to her, Elisabeth Smith agrees to teach him enough French to be able to get around on his vacation. The dialogue is broken up by in-flight announcements, meals and drinks being served and even some turbulence, making for an engaging and fun learning experience.
