When learning French, understanding the proper pronunciation is very important and is one of the first things you should learn. Yet, very few programs or apps actually take the time to teach it. In our program, we have an entire module dedicated to teaching the proper pronunciation of every letter and most common sounds.

Plus, we have recently developed a new pronunciation practice system that allows you to improve your pronunciation with thousands of full sentences; the possibilities are virtually endless. Even people who have been fluent for years, but still have a thick accent can improve their pronunciation by using our record-and-compare method, proven to be more effective than voice recognition systems. When looking for a good program, make sure it has a proper pronunciation module.

We’re a small family of language lovers, we have been learning languages for years and we will keep learning them forever. We understand the challenges in learning a new language, and the rewards you get from reaching your goal. When you join Ouino, you’ll get support and guidance by real passionate people. We’re doing this together with you.

When you contact us, you’ll always speak directly with one of the creators of Ouino. Always. We love sharing our passion for languages. We’re happy to provide assistance with the program, but we will also provide personal advice, guidance and resources to help you learn languages more effectively. Our mission is to help every Ouino user reach their desired level in French. Never underestimate the value of having some human help in this automated world.

Everyone is different. Different needs, different ages, different learning abilities, different levels. Expecting everyone to learn in the exact same way didn’t make sense to us. That’s why we have created the most customizable program on the market. In Ouino, you can choose exactly how and what you learn. You can adjust the speed, the difficulty, number of repetitions, and even the order in which the lessons are taken.

If you have previous knowledge of the language, you can skip everything you already know or simply review it really quickly. You’ll always learn at the optimal speed for you. And you won’t need to learn words you feel are completely irrelevant for your current needs. You take control over everything.

Grammar is an intimidating word for many people, but when you think about it, it’s simply the structure of the language. Explaining the structure of a language is often complex and specific to each language, which is why most apps don’t bother teaching any grammar at all, which is not ideal. On the other hand, grammar in traditional methods is often overdone with incredibly complex grammar rules that makes your head hurt.

In Ouino, we use a balance of both methods; we understand that most of the language structure is learned through a lot of exposure to the language. But we also believe that grammar, when used in a productive way that doesn’t drown learners in boredom, is essential to really understand how a new language works. With Ouino, you’ll finally understand sentence structure with simplified grammar.

Verb conjugation can seem like a terribly complex subject, but it’s not all that complicated. At Ouino, we don’t understand how most apps and programs simply don’t teach conjugation at all! However, most people who learn verbs with our method are relieved at how simple conjugation can be.

When broken down into smaller parts, and practised in the right way, you can feel confident using multiple French verb tenses very quickly. We teach conjugation is a unique visual way.

You may feel like when you learn from language apps, you can get most answers right away by making simple deductions, but do you really learn the words? The fact is, most of us are terrible at remembering new words. That’s why we created a method to force the brain to remember them.

With our method, you start with easy exercises and work your way up to difficult ones. You simply can’t receive a perfect score if you don’t have a solid grasp on the new words. So once you’re done with a lesson, you are ready to go try the words in real-life conversations.

You’ve probably heard nonsense claims like “Learn French in 2 weeks” while browsing the web. Well, don’t believe everything you see. Sure, if you want to learn a few phrases before your trip, you can easily do that in a few days, but I’m sure you understand that truly learning French is a lot more than that.

At Ouino, we won’t tell you demoralizing nonsense, instead, we’ll provide all the tools you need to reach your realistic goals. If your goal is to have a fluent conversation with a native French speaker while eating crepes in a trendy café in Paris, it’s going to take a lot more than 2 weeks. But if you’re willing to put in the time and effort, we would love to guide you to fluency, one step at a time.
