Recommendations for online French courses?

I’ve got decent spoken French and was thinking I should use some of my pandemic time to improve it.

I’m looking for recommendations for online classes. Ideally it’d be a live person and class on the other end of the screen - I don’t fancy just interacting with an app.

Merci bien!

Duolingo offers free online french lessons and if you use a PC or laptop the there are no restrictions. Ipad and android is free but tries to get you to buy the 'Pro version.

@Rainallnight there are loads of apps that might suit you... Tandem and Hello Talk allow you to chat with other learners. I'm quite curious to do the Michel Thomas online course because I struggle with speaking.

placemaking here. A level French in 1984! Barely uttered a word since. I've started doing some online conversation and have been surprised at what has returned. But I'm not really moving forward

Late to the party but these are my tips.

Find a tutor online, try tutorhunt or firsttutors. Lots of good ones on there, have a look.

Much better and much cheaper to use a native speaker tutor, online.

Have a look at French Today

www.frenchtoday.com/

Personally I think it is one of the best on-line methods. They also provide one-to-one:
