Colloquial French: A Complete Language Course

I own many resources for learning French and I find M. Moys's set to be a great resource for practicing your listening skills. The dialogues start off pretty easy and progress through both discs, with the last few dialogues being at full conversational speed and even muffle some words like they are actually spoken by native speakers. You get a chance to learn most of the verb tenses, grammar points, and some good vocabulary. I found both the primary male and female speakers to be enjoyable and the subjects of the dialogues to be interesting. Even though this set starts off teaching the alphabet and numbers, it moves along at a quick clip. I think it is a great tool for the high-intermediate student.
