Explore the rich beauty of the

French and Spanish languages!

This special mini-course, ALPHABET EXPLORATION, will help you acquire next-level skills in pronunciation, intonation, and fluency, building your confidence in speaking French or Spanish.

Confused by all the options available?

Not sure of the best approach to SPEAK Spanish or French?

Tired of empty promises? (i.e. "Learn French in 3 weeks!")
Swimming in vocabulary words from your app with no way to actually communicate?
Spanish grammar makes no sense?
No opportunity to converse with a HUMAN or ask specific questions?

What you don't need is a another program full of "bells and whistles" - that is long on promise and short on delivering real language skills.

Prior Attempts at Learning French or Spanish Leave You Frustrated?

AND BEFORE YOU KNOW IT

You're Trying to Learn in a Vacuum

Your app or past programs didn't approach teaching languages using regular, quality verbal practice. You've heard words - but NOT learned to pronounce them comfortably or naturally.

Your past learning attempts wandered pointlessly

You're Not Learning in Context

Children learn by interacting in simple, essential, real life situations - not fragmented, isolated actions or scenarios that lack any meaningful context. Learning a language in relevant contexts makes the process engaging and fun.

Stymied by the lack of practice?

Practice really does make perfect

Children learn by guided repetition - as do adults. You must engage with a program that fosters verbal practice to gain mastery of the language and fluency.

After years of teaching I found the solution to making language learning come alive...

...the solution sounds almost too easy - an active, right-brain focused approach that works for all types of learning styles and mimics the way children learn their native language.

It's been a lifelong goal to bring this method to young students and adults alike.

We’ve Identified the Approach that truly works...

Anyone can learn Spanish or French - real, functional, useful language - using the Authentic Lingo approach.

Our Story

My teaching journey started in the Dallas Ft. Worth Metro years ago.

During my first years teaching French and Spanish, I relied far too much on the textbook "curriculum". Sparking the love of languages in my students was a challenge, and learning felt rote and uninspired.

The old approaches to learning a second language weren't working, and I could see it every day.

I struggled to help my students capture what inspired my love of languages - hearing the language spoken, using it in simple phrases, learning about the wonderful French and Hispanic cultures, and tapping into auditory, visual, and kinesthetic teaching styles to drive new learning home.

A couple of years later, while teaching in Utah, one workshop helped me identify and crystalize what I'd already begun to implement in my classroom - teaching to multiple learning styles while focusing on real communication.

It was then that I began to really learn to put these key principles together with the basic elements of French and Spanish. Building on the basics and remixing concepts and vocabulary - I forged ways to make practice fun.

This was the genesis of our Authentic Lingo method.

THERE REALLY IS A

BETTER WAY.

Introducing our Alphabet Exploration program from Authentic Lingo.

Alphabet Exploration adds dimension and nuance to your pronunciation skills learned in our first (and second) level Spanish and French courses.

We offer 2 different courses in our Alphabet Exploration program - one in Spanish, one in French. Both feature 4K-video lessons (9 in Spanish, 10 in French) with 2 additional video "worksheets" to start, stop, and review multiple times to anchor your learning.

From the alphabet to conversational cadence you will listen to and then practice with the sounds that are distinctly characteristic of beautiful French or exciting Spanish.

LET'S DIVE IN

QUESTIONS?

Frequently Asked Questions.

I've tried the apps and still couldn't speak a sentence, how is this program different?

The AI generated apps have their place, but let's face it, you're a human, and you want to learn to interact with other humans in French or Spanish.

To eventually be able to speak confidently, you need to HEAR French/Spanish spoken authentically, gain proficiency with a core vocabulary, and PRACTICE speaking .

Our approach offers all of these critical components, including weekly live practice sessions with our lead instructor and suggestions on different fun ways to hear French/Spanish spoken and interact in French/Spanish.

I'd love to learn French or Spanish for travel, but I'm busy and don't have big blocks of time to sit down for a course and study.

We've built Authentic Lingo's French and Spanish One courses just for people like you.

The video lessons are entirely self-paced, and our course management system tracks precisely where you've stopped in your last session, so you can watch even 5 to 10 minutes at a time (or more, or less) and pick up right where you left off when you have some time to spare.

Most of the videos are between 20 and 25 minutes in length, and the worksheet and vocab lists are downloadable PDFs.

How should I best view the course to maximize my learning experience?

We've crafted the video series to be OPTIMALLY viewed on a computer screen or television.

Our videos work well on most tablet screen sizes, though you'll enjoy your experience much more on a larger screen.

Though technically possible, we do NOT recommend viewing the lesson videos on a phone / mobile screen - you'll struggle to read some of the material on a screen that small.

How quickly do you recommend working through the course?

Most students find that setting a goal of working through a lesson or review lesson per week yields the best results.

Of course there's no set pace you must follow; some students take longer, some work through the lessons more quickly.

Ideally we'd recommend watching through each lesson video multiple times to really drive home the core components. And don't forget the optional live training offered weekly (and recorded).

Would your classes work for my kids in homeschool?

Absolutely!

We're home school / hybrid school parents ourselves, and in no small part designed the program to meet the needs of home schooling / hybrid schooling families.

From a home teacher perspective, our programs are for the most part self contained and require very little prep time for the home-based instructor.

We also commonly hear that parents love going through the lessons with their kids!

Do you offer private or private group live lessons?

We have limited time for private / private group lessons and typically have several classes going at a time.

We're physically located in the northern part of the DFW metro and do offer live in person group teaching in a limited local area "in the neighborhood".

That said, we've conducted live private and group lessons via digital means all across the country and in several international venues as well.
