FREE "French Lessons" with the Daily Telegraph

quoia

From their webpage

The Telegraph has teamed up with teach yourself to give you the chance to learn French – with a difference. Each day between Monday, July 31 and Wednesday, August 9 listen to a 15-minute lesson which simply teaches you how to hold a conversation in French. It’s perfect for beginners or for those looking to refresh their language skills.

Every day for 10 days there will be a different audio lesson for you to download, lasting between 10-15 minutes. Downloading these lessons to your mp3 player or computer means you’re in control of your learning and can listen to them whenever you choose. Whether you’re on the train, in the gym or enjoying your lunch-break these lessons allow you to learn little and often.

The 10 conversations cover situations you are most likely to find yourself in while on holiday or on business abroad. They include subjects such as booking a hotel room, asking for directions and eating out.

Splendid! Thanks for this - I wasn't aware of this at all, and I'm keeping an eye on the media at the moment for all things french as I'm learning it.

As far as I am aware you can download previous lessons - each one has "that day's " password.
