I've checked out a couple of learning podcasts, which were pretty good, and confirmed that my French knowledge is going to be a huge help (I was able to understand some non-taught things straight off the bat).</p> <p>But planning on getting a book and starting to learn the basics that way, and using that as back-up to a proper (probably weekly) tutor. Anyone have any experience of finding and using a 1:1 language tutor?</p> <p>Muchos Gracias! (see, learning already!) </p>
