emzhengjiu Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Try your local library. It may have a French language program. Unfortunately, Rosetta Stone isn't available in libraries anymore. My daughter is using First Start French. It's okay and inexpensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emzhengjiu Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 There's an open course French 1 program as well, but I can't remember the name. Also, chenck out BBC languages for an introduction to French. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenny in Florida Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 You might take a look at this: http://www.learner.org/resources/series83.html My son is doing the Spanish one with a text I bought used for $18. And, as someone else mentioned, there are good, free resources here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/languages/french/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webbeccjo Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 UT Austin has a free french class http://www.laits.utexas.edu/fi/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperDad Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Take a look at this Open Culture page. It's excellent. Here are some other websites to check out- Duolingo - http://www.duolingo.com Mango Language (see if it's offered free through your library system) Langmaster - http://www.langmaster.com/lmcom/com/web/en-gb/pages/free-language-online.aspx And the already mentioned websites are good too. HTH, SuperDad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
