Two Excellent French Resources
Free Language has put together two excellent resources to guide people in knowing how to learn French online.
One is a mega-page full of everything needed for learning about how to learn French online. It covers, podcasts, video podcasts, news, Web TV, software and more.
The other is a roughly ten-minute video entitled "How to Learn French Online for Free" which you can also watch below.
The days of one-stop language learning solutions are over. Your French does not exist in a vacuum. These days you bring together what you need to learn the French you want to speak. You can manage this by basing your studies on the kinds of things you want to read, hear, talk about and perhaps see.
Podcasts are a great way to learn languages because you can take the audio with you and learn anywhere, any time, as often as required or desired.
