<p>Ok so my school offers french 1, 2, and 3. I have taken all three of those courses and would now like to take french 4 and ap french but my school does not offer them. Is there a way to take these courses online with out paying a large sum of money?</p>
<p>sorry I posted this three times. I did not mean to</p>
<p>If there's a good college nearby, contact their French department and ask them what textbooks/grammar books are helpful for that particular level. I heard of one called "BLED" that's supposed to be really helpful. You're probably looking for beginning/intermediate French. </p>
<p>Also, find out what the AP books are. If you like any popular, simply written books in English (like Harry Potter), see if you can find a French translation. Or read something easy to understand, like "L'etranger." That's a great way to pick up vocab.</p>
<p>Find these books at the library, and teach yourself out of them. For listening, watch a bunch of French movies and listen to a lot of French music. See if you can find any French children TV shows. </p>
<p>Also, go online and find streaming French radio/TV news broadcast. Listen to it as often as you can. Read French newspaper articles, especially if they deal with subjects that your'e interested in. </p>
<p>This is basically what they do in French 4 and college-level intermediate French.</p>
<p>Those are some really good ideas! Thank you</p>
