To make it worse, I'd never been taught grammatical terms in English, so trying to learn them in French wasn't helpful. Anything beyond nouns, adjectives etc.
Learn by doing was the biggest thing that helped. In lessons you might say it out loud a couple times but you'd never have to put together a sentence after being given the tools to do so. (Why I got on with Michel Thomas stuff)
We predominantly used the Coomber machines to record farts. Whoever used them in the following lesson must have wondered why the microphone didn’t smell too nice.
Spinning my own wool from some sheep fleece, dying it with natural materials and weaving it into a pattern sampler thingy.
I hope you didn’t go to the Casey Jenkins school of knitting
