Excellent program, ok audiobook

Innovative Language audiobooks are the best language learning program around, in my opinion. I’ve listened to about 20, and this one is my least favorite since the dialogues are not that interesting. The dialogues are better than the quotes though. Please make another Intermediate level Innovative Language!!!

Best language learning experience ever!

Seriously, this was great fun. The two readers have a wonderful chemistry - flirtatious, knowledgeable, and with excellent and clear pronunciations. The pace goes by nice and fast and smooth. The PDFs are easily found and very helpful. The vocabulary is current. The delivery is fun fun fun! Can't wait to try the next one.

Enjoyed the conversations

I would have prefer to have the subtitles
said from French to English instead of both ways, it's less confusing

Best way to learn French

I tried several audio French language instruction methods and Pimsleur is far and away the best. I started with level one and I have had college French classes many years ago. My husband has never had any French instruction and started as well. We both love it! Great for a refresher or a true beginner. Am continuing on to level two. Highly recommended!

Excellent

More like this please. This was funny and useful. It's been easy to use this to revise my French painlessly.

Awful!

What disappointed you about Learn French - Level 7: Intermediate French, Volume 1: Lessons 1-25?

This is hopeless as a way of learning French, and irritating generally. The presenters spend much of the time flirting, in English. The most surreal bit was when they sing along to the Can Can tune, going Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da hahahahaha! as if they think this is the height of wit, and what one wants when one is trying to learn a language.

What could Innovative Language Learning have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

Stop trying to be cool. Do not bother with sound effects, which add nothing. Think about users, who actually want to learn French, and do not want a tenth rate comedy programme. Did you actually listen to this before you published it? What were you thinking?

Who might you have cast as narrator instead of FrenchPod101.com?

Anyone who is prepared to read a script rather than giggle.

What character would you cut from Learn French - Level 7: Intermediate French, Volume 1: Lessons 1-25?

The bloke who says "What's next?" before every item in the list of vocabulary.

A real aid to progress
