Free French Resources

Starting Out
Websites, Lessons, Activities

The French Tutorial: Standard Edition - Lessons with audio, online (offline version is called Personal Edition)
French Exercises - audio flashcards, quizzes, etc
Podcasts
Coffee Break French - starts slow and clear, teaches at a good pace (based on the first podcast, anyway. lol)
Learn French with Alexa - She goes a wee bit fast for me (like she doesn't really give you enough time to repeat her before she repeats the word again, but I think I could get used to saying things with her while she repeats) Pretty high ratings in itunes.

As We Advance
Websites, Lessons, Activities
Busuu - I've read good things, but it seems to just throw you in without teaching basics or anything. Still, might be good once we get going
Podcasts
One Thing in a French Day - French culture in a verbal blog. Comments say great for intermediate-advanced students, especially for listening comprehension.
Easy French Poetry - Could be fun! For listening comprehension at an intermediate level. Plus I love poetry. lol.
Walk, Talk, and Learn French - Walking around Paris as he records, taking about grammar and things he sees on the streets. Same creators as Coffee Break.
