I’m going to nightschool for French at the moment, but everyone seems to be better at it than me

I’m guessing they are doing more homework than me (none!)

anyone know of any good websites that might help out?

Brand new, launched last week

My girlfriend speaks fluent French. She helps people to learn English using a website. Its like a forum – French speaking people complete exercises in English and the English speaking members critique and offer suggestions to improve the quality of the exercise. In exchange the reverse happens. She uses the forum bit to refine her grammar or to ask the meaning of the odd word she hasn’t come across before.
You can use it for all sorts of languages. It’s worth a try and it’s free:
