Course Description

Welcome to course 3 :-)

This is the third course in the 3 Minute French series and it consists of lessons 19-26. The lessons in this course follow on from course 1 and course 2.

In this third course of the 3 Minute French series, we delve into a few French nuances. We'll look at some new verbs and learn how they are used differently in French to how they're used in English. We'll also begin to look at a very useful tool for new language learners: directions. Learning how to ask for directions is invaluable, because it will very often be one of the easiest ways for you to start to tune your ear into the French language. I'll give you a few tips on how to do this.

The sentences in this course might seem a little longer than the ones we've been used to, so far, but this is a great way for you to get your tongue around the French pronunciation. By saying long sentences to yourself over and over, you'll really be able to get to grips with speaking French.

We'll also be learning lots of prepositions, new adjectives and plenty of adverbs, plus some more Vocabulary Expansion Sheets that will make our sentences amazing! We'll be looking at ways to give your opinion on things, and we'll get introduced to some very interesting language features with plenty of practice for you to really get your head around them.

Finally, at the end of this course, you will find an extra section. To round off the tourism theme of the first three courses in the series, I have created a bumper recap section containing a plethora of examples and practise exercises to recap all the words and phrases we've learnt so far.

This course really rounds off the first three courses of the 3 Minute French series, and gets you ready to move onto the next course, which will take your French to the next level.

Happy learning

Instructor Details

Kieran Ball

Hello, bonjour, hola, hallo, ciao and olá! 

I’m Kieran and I’m a language tutor based in the UK, and I also create online courses and write books to make language learning accessible to all.

My books and online courses are based on the method I developed for teaching languages, which I've been using in all my classes for many  years. The method will get you speaking quickly, without the  struggle normally associated with language learning.

I have created three series of language courses available in French,  Spanish, German, Italian and Portuguese. They're called: '3 Minute  Languages', 'Building Structures' and 'Quick Guides'.


I hope you enjoy, and "Happy Learning" :-)

The 3 minute sessions are exquisite and I believe it keeps me interested and going. Also the recap at the end of sessions is very useful as it is a good way of trying to keep the words in my memory.

By Eddie Cooper on 10/13/2025

Kieran has picked up the pace in this one, with far more new words and phrases per lesson than in the last two courses I am finding it slightly harder but it has also motivated me to practice more. Still a very good way to learn and I like how he formats his lessons.

This is my third course with Kieran. He has an excellent teaching style, and I am enjoying this course as I have the previous ones. I most definitely will be taking the remaing French courses in this series.

By Eileen Roberts on 3/7/2024

Very helpful because I have a problem learning another language. My problem is thinking in English and that delay me in meeting up with the French speaker. Do you have any idea how I can change that problem. Thank you.

By G. Ebru Kundakcı on 7/29/2023

I love Kieran's way of teaching! And I am so glad that I chose his course to learn French. He makes this difficult language easier, and makes it very easy to remember everything I've learnt. Thank you so much!

Kieran has an excellent approach to teaching, making learning easy and rewarding. I would highly recommend this 3 minute approach, as long as you do it everyday like he suggests, it actually stays in there!
