I have tried other platforms to learn vocabulary and improve my oral comprehension of spoken French, but it is by far the very best in class!

This resource is SO rich! This is the resource of my dreams. I have always had to type up the scripts of videos myself, or had news reports but no video. This is the best of both worlds!
