Known for its hip, thriving nightlife, coffee shops, bars, nightclubs, and fine restaurants, the city offers young professionals one of the most cosmopolitan urban cultures on the west coast.

Portland is also home to well-respected Portland Art Museum, the Oregon Ballet Theatre, the Oregon Symphony, and the Portland Opera.

About French
The French language is considered to be one of the most beautiful languages in the world. A descendent of Latin, is part of a set of European languages known as Romance Languages, which also includes Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, and Romanian. It is also one of the most widely spokes languages in the world, with 130 million people speaking it natively and 600 million people speaking it as a second language. The popularity of the language worldwide is the result of the fact that France was once the most important international language in the world for politics and trade. In addition, France colonized many countries in Africa, Asia, and the Caribbean, and as a result, the native people of those countries picked up the language. Today, it is one of the most popular languages to learn in America.
When learning French, a great of emphasis must be placed on learning how to pronounce the language, as French possesses a set of nuanced phonetic rules that, if pronounced incorrectly, can confuse the listener. In addition, a student of French must learn vocabulary, grammar, syntax, conjugation, word order, and expressions. Although classes in French are usually available beginning at the high school level in America and continue on through college, it is valuable to work with a one-on-one tutor, as having the opportunity to practice speaking the language with a native or fluent speaker will greatly improve one’s accent and delivery of the spoken aspect of the language.
