I really enjoy News in Slow French. I bounce around between 4-5 different French podcasts, and yours is my favorite. Love the sense of humor you share in the program, and breaking the podcast into a few different segments keeps things moving along nicely. The news format is good, of course, because I've likely heard the stories already, so it's easier to keep up and fill in any language gaps.
We use your site twice a month, with great success, in my French 3 and French AP class. My students love it because they can keep up on current news, and improve their French at the same time. Thank you again for providing such a high quality web site.
Great Program!!!
I've taken a few years of French in high school, but am a bit rusty. I'm really enjoying dusting off the cobwebs. This is a great way to improve listening comprehension since the speakers speak at a medium speed. Highly recommended to anyone learning French!
