To learn the language there where it is spoken is the best way. It was hard to follow classes though cuz I hardly spoke French at all but after a while one gets into it.

There is usually a set program that you have to follow for language courses, so there isn't a large variety of courses.

Personal comments
You really have to make an effort to meet french people. Joins clubs and go out a lot and try and meet a few good friends, because they're the ones that will help you learn the language.
