    Merde! I set up an account in French & follow a load of French accounts to improve my French. What do they do? Tweet in English.

        This was good for conversational French and pronunciation. http://www.audible.co.uk/pd/Languages/Learn-French-Ultimate-Getting-Started-with-French-Box-Set-Lessons-1-55-Audiobook/B005LIXHAQ …

        Reading lots of French texts without the dictionary should help with reading speed. It's how I learnt English, lol.

        Je n'utilise l'anglais que par esprit pratique, mais qu'il en soit ainsi: je ne vous répondrais plus qu'en français.
