Such a helpful podcast with friendly, welcoming voices! I’ve learned so much already and I get so excited when I hear the intro music. Love love love!

Very helpful to casually learn French

This podcast really helped me a lot to learn French, it helps you take steps into learning new phrases and words. I recommend this podcast if you’re interested in learning French or if you need help remembering a word or phrases.

I used to know French well but haven’t really spoken it in 30 years. In anticipation of a vacation I’m using this to refresh on basic items, such as directions and ordering (season 1) as well as listening to longer stretches of French (season 9). It’s quite good. However, I noticed that in episodes 15 and 16 of season one, the young woman in the episode consistently mispronounces “pour” but is not being corrected. If you rely on these episodes alone, you will speak incorrectly. It’s a small item that doesn’t stop me from rating it highly.

THIS is the podcast you need! I have been learning French from scratch and Coffee Break French is absolutely amazing. I love all of their learning materials.

Can’t believe I wasted so much money on Babbel which actually taught me incorrect sayings I figured out when saying them in France (never explained the fem/masc difference). This podcast is so informational, so educational, easy and clear. Highly recommend.

This is a great podcast for learning French grammar from a beginner level up to an advanced level, with tons of free content over the years, and an option to pay for even more content if you want it.

The first 2 seasons are superb! Unfortunately after that, one cannot learn without paying (and paying what I consider a very high amount) for “extended versions” of the lessons. All the grammar and sentence structure, and line-by-line translations, are in the paid version. I muddled through S3, frustrated throughout, and gave up when I discovered S4 was the same. Such a shame, as I thoroughly enjoyed the first two seasons and learned so much.

An excellent French learning podcast for beginners. Good sound quality, professional presentation with intros, a focus on conversational French. The piano music lead in is a little annoying but a it’s a minor gripe.

The heavy accent of the instructor leaks into the French, making it dodgy for learning good French pronunciation. Also, even as a very novice learner, I noticed mistakes (e.g., they say “orange” is a masculine noun, but it’s actually feminine).
