French Language Software

I have recently started to regret not putting more effort into learning French when I was in elementary and high school. However, I also recognize that the French I was being taught was not really practical French. Furthermore, it was “Parisian” style French instead of the Quebecois French I encounter much more often.

I have started to listen to French radio and read it whenever I can but I can’t seem to get past the basic jist of what is being said and even then I’m not sure if I’m always right. I would like a workbook or series of workbooks that will help me improve my knowledge of Quebecois French. Could you recommend a book or series?

Thank you!

I am looking for a good french learning program that isn’t going to empty my bank account. I have heard both good and bad things about Rosetta Stone and honestly i wouldn’t spend that much money anyways. Can anyone suggest a program that they may have used and had good results with? Thanks.

Videos, audio tapes, software, anything. I took three years of French in high school, but these courses move so slow and use so little actual speaking that I feel like I know a bunch of vocabulary but not necessarily how to put it together properly. I’m eager to learn so I can visit France.

I am looking to learn French at my university, and so far have taken just one class. I dropped the second class because I was having too much difficulty learning and keeping up with the class. I still need to continue with the classes and take 1 and a half years of french still. I know of all the programs U.S. companies sell to help you learn a language, like Rosetta Stone, but I want to know, what do the french recommend to learn french?

I may actually move there in a few years, so it is important that I learn it well.
