I’m trying to learn French! I think its a beautiful language. I’d like to know if anybody has had any luck with those online audio course things like rocket french and pimsleur french. Also any tips for French grammar or how to learn french fast online?

I’ve done a few audio courses myself so I know how you feel. I had exactly the same idea that learning French through audio would be a great way to learn French online fast!
The trick is to pick the right course. You probably want an online course which includes not just audio but also flash cards and grammar. Visual learning methods are extremely effective.
Another good idea is to learn French by finding online penpals. I’ve used social networks successfully to do this. Try searching for people who speak French and make friends with them.
Finally I also highly recommend listening to French music and watching French films as much as possible. There are tons of free French podcasts and free videos and stuff on youtube.
A site I found pretty useful for this is http://best-french-lessons.com/
Hope that helps!
