    Ce qui me plaît, c’est que je peux écouter les audios en français moderne. J’apprécie également les liens vers des leçons supplémentaires et des histories bilingues. J’aime bien les audios sur les endroits intéressants et beaux en France et ça me donne envie d’y retourner.

    Which part of France will we be transported to this month? Have I been there before? Is it somewhere I would like to go? Perhaps it is something I have never heard of before. For the price of a weekly cup of coffee we are introduced to French culture and different regions of France with Camille’s monthly magazine articles. I am so pleased when I realise I understand most of what I am listening to. Your teaching methods work so well, Camille! Thank you both yet again for all your hard work.

    After studying French grammar in the UK for 2 years, I realised that I could still not speak French or understand French people. After purchasing the audiobooks and more recently the monthly audio magazine, my confidence to speak French has improved. Camille is very easy to understand in the audiobooks, and help you to pronounce French much better as her words are very precise and clear. The choice to listen to modern French is a great bonus too. The audio magazines have interesting topics to read and pronounce out loud, but they are carefully crafted too, to help you build up vocabulary and choice of french words. Very good value for money too.

    I really enjoy listening and reading the monthly magazine articles. I use them as an additional learning tool, but also, for pleasure. I’m learning so much from them about French places and culture. They have inspired me to travel further around France next time. The articles are so easy to listen to on your phone wherever you are, whatever you’re doing.

    It’s so interesting and excellent language coverage. However the low stars are because I want to be able to listen to the magazines in one continuous session without having to keep returning to the dashboard and select the next article and then press play. These short bursts are too short and I may have to cancel and look fir something else unless you have a solution.

      Hi Annette. We don’t have that functionality at the moment. Most of our users tend to listen to the same article several times (repeating different sections… at different speeds…) so if we automatically moved to the next article, that could introduce its own set of issues. Best regards. Olivier – French Today

    I’m delighted with the new audio magazine. Je l’adore!!!

    I have to admit, I’m quite a lazy student so these are perfect for me. I listen whilst walking my dogs; first in ‘modern’ French followed by ‘enunciated’. There are generally some things I still don’t get so when I get home I read the story in French (and speak along with it) and finally in English if I need!

    The articles are really interesting and informative and studying doesn’t feel like a chore! It’s a brilliant idea and we’ll worth the subscription 😃

    Many thanks, Jackie

    Ps. With the magazine, the audio books, blogs, videos etc, I feel like I know Camille. I would recommend French Today to anyone!

    The audio magazine is a system that helps with words and phrases that you may know when reading, but miss when you hear them. The “click” to display the English translation, and then hide from view is a wonderful tool that saves time and reinforces comprehension. The subjects are varied and introduces varied grammatical tenses.

    Thank you for the opportunity to learn more about France through the audio magazine. Always amazing, always learning current explorations in France. I look forward to the next adventures with you – real people telling travel stories you create every month. And the Dog Training en français is terrific – mille mercis. I used the Verb Drills also to learn the commands pour notre caniche – et voilà, super ! Et Sydney est maintenant bilingue. I am a huge French Today fan. Comme toujours, je vous embrasse tous !

    After following French Today on FB and receiving the emails for a long time now, I decided to subscribe to the monthly magazines & am not regretting this. The articles are very interesting and varied and the audio links are clear and easy to follow.
    Definitely the best and most interesting way I’ve found to maintain and improve my knowledge of the french language.

    Just when I think French Today has offered more top quality French language teaching than I can imagine, French Today continues to top it with even more. The audio magazine is a rare find. It is exactly what I need. The content is engaging, varied, and useful. It is easy to use, and I look forward to it every month. I feel so very lucky. It far exceeds my already high expectations from having enjoyed much time on the French Today site for years.
