Cost is pretty irrelevant as I'm not paying for it, but expediency would be nice.

Do you have a DS?
"My French Coach" is good for learning vocab and fun games are not as dull as many courses IMO.Posted 1 year ago # -
Rosetta Stone is supposed to be the best, although I haven't used it. Builds up the language in the same way a child does, by associations and suchlike.

Money no object eh! I'm sure you come to an arragement with Zahia D. There again, maybe not, Ribery was having trouble reading his press release last week.
On a more serious note there are a couple of decent language schools in every town in France so enter the town of your choice and take your pick.

Insted do one in chamonix. Residential courses as long as you like. I won one last year. If I can afford the fight and living expenses, I should be going in June.

If you are serious about trying to get to a reasonable level then books won't cut it imho, you really need to find a course locally where you can speak it. I've tried books and they are great for getting going but they don't really get you speaking.
For reading for the fun of it you can always subscribe to this mag which is quite good or even join in the eternal helmets discussions on the forum here here

I borrowed Michel Thomas from a friend for my mother last year. She was happy with it.

I really liked the Michel Thomas CD-based Spanish course.
I found the only trouble putting it into practice is that you can ask a question so fluently that you get the answer back in (fast) Spanish. This does you no good at all. You need to learn to phrase questions so you will get an answer you understand.
Do not ask (in that big square in Barcelona, with the 48 different bus stops) "where is the bus stop for the airport?". Instead ask "Is this the bus stop for the airport?"

Local Alliance Francaise ??
Best way to learn French is to get a French girlfriend, for all the obvious reasons.
