For an extended stay in France I would like to prepare by learning the language.
What I would like to find is a site where I can read and listen to French being spoken. Being a beginner I'll need to start with lesson #1.
Are there any sites to give me a good grasp of French?
All suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks missy, good suggestion for the library. The only problem is the library loans for 6 weeks (including extension). I'll be needing the lessons for quite a long time and the overdue fines would pile up way too much.

You might want to call your local Alliance Francaise, and see what they recommend in terms of self-help.
Through the Denver Alliance Francaise, I bought a French lesson CD. It came with a workbook, and I just sort of followed along. I would slip in the CD any time I felt like it, and respond to the prompts. (My French is still wretched, but that's my fault.)
I am looking for english lesson in order to improve my level.
I can give you french lesson on line, we can "chat" in french for you and in english for me ?? Pourquoi pas, non ?
I've heard Rosetta Stone is good, but very expensive. One of the best is Michel Thomas's CD sets, and Pimsleur is good for beginners also.
