  • A great service for intermediate learners

    I’m following the content for Italian, Spanish, and French, and appreciate how it’s easier to follow the vocabulary that would otherwise be challenging for me because it relates to topics that are top of mind because of stories in the news.

  • Perfect!

    This podcast is perfect. I use it as a vehicle for French conversation classes. I wish I’d discovered it before. Lots of new vocabulary within the context of current events which my students are already interested in, in English. A great way of learning.
