French GCSE AQA How to get a 9

Wow how did u revise for the listening bit of french ? I’ve already done gcse but wow listening was the bit that always let me down 😭

Honestly listening was so bad for me in like year 9 and 10, but I started listening to lots of French music and I watched wayyy too many kids French cartoons to the point where listening to the GCSE Audio seemed slow, and easy to understand. How did ya do?

gosh im in year 10 and im struggling as hell in french( especially listening and reading!!). how did u all remember the vocab, i find that really hard and if u used any textbooks, websites, youtubers etc, what would u recommend?

What French shows do you recommend?

How did you revise for the listening and speaking? I listen to French songs, but I still suck.

Ah I should have done that in hindsight but I was far too into kpop and korean dramas . I got a 7 and I’m pretty happy with it . I knew it was listening that let me down tho . French was fun , just not the listening. It was like alien language 😂 but very well done for the 9 what u taking for alevels

Le Petit Nicolas!
Peppa Pig en français
The Asterix movies.

I would also recommend learning the lyrics to songs like Fallait Pas - Marwa Loud so that you can practice distinguishing words in songs. This is sooo helpful and is what I found most helpful

For Speaking, I wasn’t planning on learning answers but I thought I would anyways. If you’re doing AQA French I could send you the link to my French Speaking answers (please don’t use them tho!!) I learnt them well so that I could make sure I used all the tenses and grammar techniques that I needed. For listening try lots of kids TV shows like Le Petit Nicolas and Peppa Pig are good. You could learn the lyrics to a song eg Fallait Pas - Marwa Loud and listen to it a lot so you can start distinguishing sounds easier.

Yes please! I don't do AQA French but my exam board themes are the same!
Are the French shows on Youtube or actual TV?

Sent you a link to it in your messages! And they’re all on YouTube.

Thank youuu and a 7 is an amazing grade anyway! I’m taking Biology Physics Maths and Further Maths, how about you? <3

Im taking maths biology chemistry and further maths too but I’m thinking of dropping further maths and doing an epq instead because it’s hard , too hard .

That’s so funny lmao!! And honestly I’ve hand 2 lessons of further maths so far and I’m finding it ok because I’m spending legit like an hour going over everything at home..
