This site does the same as magazines you may have already used to learn to listen to French -
Champs Elysées,  Authentik en français, Le français dans le monde. They all provide a CD with accompanying text so you can listen, then correct yourself by reading the text.

However, there are no audio magazines produced beyond the level of Le français dans le monde, and all these magazines are audio only - no video. That is the gap that this site aims to fill. It takes listening practise beyond the level of the existing magazines, and it offers video

And it's free !

If you find the extracts here rather hard, spend some time with our sister site, listentofrench.org, where subtitles in French are also offered. And good luck !

You need to install the DivX codec to allow your video software to play the clips on this site. Download it here

I use ALShow to play video clips. It supports bookmarks and allows you to replay the last few seconds.

Use Winamp to play mp3.  It allows you to replay the last few seconds.
