Everyone says you can get fluent in 3 months, but is that actually possible? 🤔 In this video, I break down the truth behind the “fluent in 90 days” idea and show you my real progress from day 1 all the way to month 11. 🇫🇷✨
When I first started French, I wanted to see how far I could go in 3 months. I pushed myself, tried every method, made a lot of mistakes, and documented everything. Now I’m around C1 and still improving every day. 📈
But it wasn’t because I’m naturally gifted. It was because I learned how language learning really works. Here’s how you can do it too 👇
💭 1. The Real Problem
People want fast results, but most don’t actually know what “fluency” means. The myth creates pressure and makes people quit before they even start. Once you understand what’s realistic, everything becomes easier.
🧠 2. What Fluency Actually Means
Fluency isn’t perfection. It’s being able to hold conversations, understand most daily content, and express yourself naturally. You don’t need native-like grammar or vocab to be fluent.
You can reach functional fluency faster than you think if you follow the right routine.
📅 3. My 3 Month Routine
I focused on the essentials: immersion, Anki, grammar videos, audio courses, and lots of listening. No complicated apps, no random study sessions. Just consistent, simple input and daily practice.
This helped me reach around A2/B1 in my first month and improve even faster after that.
🎥 4. My Progress
In this video I show you my real clips from month 1, 3, 6, and 11 so you can see the difference for yourself. No filters, no acting, just real progress.
🧩 5. Why 3 Month Fluency Is Misunderstood
It’s not impossible, it’s just rare. You need the right strategy, daily consistency, and tons of immersion. Most people fail because they don’t follow a clear plan.
With the right method, you can get surprisingly far.
🕰️ 6. Long Term vs Short Term
Even if you don’t reach full fluency in 90 days, those first 3 months can completely transform your level. What really matters is consistency over the next year, not a miracle deadline.
