These Terms govern each order document and order process conducted online, by email or through the application, as agreed between Fonetix and the User (each an “Order”). These Conditions must be incorporated into the contractual conditions of each order accepted.\n1.3. These Conditions also apply to future contracts concluded between Fonetix and the User without Fonetix being required to refer to them in each particular case. These Conditions are deemed to be confirmed by the User at the latest when the latter accesses the Services.\n1.4. These Conditions apply to the exclusion of any other. The deviating, contradictory or additional general conditions of sale of the User can only form part of an Order if and insofar as Fonetix has consented in writing to their application.1.5. Special agreements with the User in specific cases prevail over these Conditions when they are formulated in writing.1.6. When the terms “in writing”, “in written form” or their variations are used in these Conditions, it refers to the expression “in writing” used in Article 1365 of the French Civil Code. The electronic exchange of copies of documents signed by hand as well as those signed with a simple electronic signature (such as that provided for example by DocuSign or Adobe Sign) is considered sufficient. Except as expressly provided in these Terms, emails are not sufficient.1.7.

As an example, the [y] (corresponding to the letter “u”) will be perceived and pronounced [i] by Arabic speakers, [u] (“ou”) by Spanish speakers, correctly pronounced by German speakers.\nYour learners can therefore work on their own on the exercises that we carefully created according to each speakers difficulties in their mother tongue, by giving again the priority to prosody.\nFinally, to encourage the passage of repetition to spontaneous production, we progressively increase the size of the items in order to encourage the structuring of the units by the brain and regularly propose exercises of semi-production.\nWhichever option you choose, you will be able to follow your learners' progress on our site, ask them to upload their recordings and to send them to you for validation.

At the end of each exercise, a quiz (based on the perception) is proposed. If the learner passes the quiz, he goes to a more difficult level, like a video game. If not, new items at the same level of difficulty are presented, followed by a new quiz.

These fonts are transferred to your browser's storage folder and enabled when you visit this or other websites. If this option is not supported, the Web page text will only be displayed in a default font.

However, your data will not be merged with other data or transferred back to you.\nIn order to protect your privacy, we have made sure that Google's collection policy recovery does not merge your data with other Google services, for example if you have a Google user account.

In addition, the security standards of the Google platform and its data privacy policy (https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=fr) apply.

The correction of pronunciation is often neglected when teaching FLE (and languages in general), even though pronunciation is evaluated during official tests of French, and that the mastering of French sounds is preliminary to writing.

FOR STUDENTS

A platform for learning French pronunciation by yourself

Improve your French pronunciation on-line and in a fun way. By practicing one hour a day, native French speakers will understand you better, you will understand your contacts better and you'll avoid certain spelling mistakes!

Courses made according to your mother tongue

We've been leading phonetic correction workshops for more than 10 years and are well aware that pronunciation errors are different for speakers of different liguistic origins. We have adapted our hands-on practice and have created specific courses in 7 different languages.

A logical progress

We see learning as a journey of lessons through which the student is going to develop skills allowing him to acquire new ones, until finally being independent. Increasing difficulty puts you in a process of success in order to keep your motivated.

FOR TEACHERS

A Tool box

For schools and training insitutions, we offer special rates so that your teachers can create custom-made courses according to the needs of their students.

Some teaching ressources

The shortcomings of phonetic correction in teaching FLE is primarily due to a lack of teacher training and training ressources that are available to them. That is why, in the free access part, we wish to make available to FLE teachers the teaching material that we use and to propose teacher training.

REVIEWS

„This training is very suitable for those who wish to improve their French pronunciation.„
PHAM Van Long - Ingénieur géotechnique & structure
„Excellent. Clear way to explain and easy to understand and practice.„
Absequera
„Cómo resultado me siento más segura para hablar y me relaciono de mejor manera al momento de interactuar y utilizar el francés para comunicarme. When I started to study French in order to enter my master's degree I was looking for different methods to advance faster, I had no problems for written production, but when I arrived at oral production, I had problems with phonetics, I spoke French and people did not understand me correctly why I had many problems with my pronunciation and this frustrated me and did not allow me to advance in a solid way in my language learning. I looked for several months for ways to solve my phonectic problem, until I found the verb tonal method with FONETIX, and when I started practicing with this method, I felt that I could really identify the sounds of the French language more naturally, and through the daily practice of my specialized training for Spanish speakers, I managed to identify my particular problems, this allowed me to begin to correct in an effective way my errors when pronouncing, and thanks to an assimilation by repetition of specific sounds, in a short time my pronunciation improved noticeably. As a result, I feel more confident to speak and I relate better when interacting and using French to communicate.„

„Une méthode rigoureuse et ludique pour améliorer la prononciation en français. On a vraiment l'impression d'avancer !„
Nuria - Barcelone
„To speak French with a good accent, one must first be able to understand the spoken French. However, there are very few trainers and applications that prioritize spoken language, which is very different from written language. This application by Fonetix fills a huge gap in this regard. This program was developed for French language, which has a very different sound structure and rhythm from Turkish. It does justice to the language and introduces and teaches it with all its richness of sound. Fonetix is a method and platform that must be used in order to go beyond the classical method of language learning and to integrate with the language quickly, almost by living in it, through immersing oneself in French movies, series or television.„
Şeyma Haznedar - Turquie
„For the past 10 years living in France, I have struggled to pronounce certain sounds such as native ones. Thanks to this platform, I have learned to decrypt these sounds, to re-educate my ear, to correct defects and to be aware that there are two parallel worlds to succeed in expressing myself correctly in French: phonetics and grammar. The exercises are original, simple to do and can be applied immediately in our daily life. Now my confidence has increased, and I can speak French easily as well as understand the oral discussions.„
Mary. R - Vénézuela
„I am very happy to have found this platform. I found the information I needed to sign up for pronunciation workshops with excellent teachers, as well as relevant online resources and exercises. The activities proposed on the platform or during the workshops are always effective. My love for the French language is growing as I work on pronunciation with Fonetix. I have to get up very early to take the workshops because of the time difference between our different time zones, but it's worth it and I do it with great joy, it's a great activity to start my day!„
