A Day in French - 56 - Supplies
Bonjour à tous and welcome back to the podcast! Today is September 1st, which means it’s back-to-school day in France. Pupils are having their very first day of class, and for parents, that also means back-to-school shopping. In today’s episode, I’ll share my own adventure with school supplies, the mistakes I made in the past, how I tried to be more prepared this year, and even a funny story about a business idea I once had. This episode is designed for learners who want to feel more confident speaking French by following real-life stories.
