Description
This course revises and consolidates your knowledge of French and teaches more advanced language skills whilst offering insights into many aspects of every day life in modern France.

The course materials are carefully designed to develop the four language skills of speaking, listening, reading and writing. They also contain activities focusing on practicing language structures, grammatical explanations and learning strategies. This material is taken from The Open University Course L120 Ouverture: Intermediate French.

Excellent listening exercise
It's a great program because you hear native French speakers in their local setting. Different people with fairly easy and short dialogues. I haven't looked at the transcripts yet. I prefer to try to use it for listening skills to see if I can figure out everything they are saying. Great exercise for honing your listening skills.
