Any Level
Bonjour de France
This is a fantastic resource for all levels, including grammar lessons and
exercises to practice what you’ve learned. We love it because you can start
using it as a beginner, and it can then accompany you all throughout the
French learning process.
This British site uses the European scale of French level: A1, A2, B1, B2,
C1 and C2. For those who would like to add a dose of French immersion to
their repertoire, it’s interesting to note that a certificate proving a level of at
least B2 is required for French university, while C1 is required for a French
Masters degree. Knowing your level on this scale can also be important if
you decide to take French classes in Europe.
This is the perfect quick click when you just need a refresher on a more
complicated grammar structure.
It doesn’t offer exercises so that you can practice. The idea is more to be
able to click on an idea in a list of topics that often pose problems—like the
imperfect, near future or adjective usage—and then quickly review what
you already know.
Le Point du FLE
This one offers fantastic resources for French teachers, but if you’re
teaching yourself French it’s also a great stop. It’s definitely worth
mentioning that this site offers lesson plans and activities to practice what
you’ve learned.
While these plans are targeted for teachers, they’re very easy to use as
a self-taught student. They reduce the boredom that can come from
following the same textbook activities day after day.
To top it all off, the exercises and activities are quite varied, meaning that
you can come back to this site again and again to use new resources.
FluentU French
One of the most exciting things about being a language learner in the age
of the Internet is that resources can be updated constantly. No more using
textbooks from the 80s trying to convince you that yé-yé is a hip and
modern trend—current French slang and idiomatic expressions are within
your reach… if you know where to look.
