Nothing can beat living in a place for learning a language. I was lucky to make French friends - I think often the foreign international students naturally have more in common with each other than the locals and don't get to practice the local language or another language if you are English.

I made a lot of improvement, because I worked in a French highschool. Most people make a lot of progress, but I knew a lot of people that only learned a few phrases by the time the left. It just depends on your motivation.

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.

Are you going to France to learn french or to whine about people speaking french? Of course it's challenging, that's the point.

My French really improved. The key was to avoid ex-pat hang-outs and make yourself speak the language as much as possible.

I spoke French well before, and just picked up the speed and the ability to speak without thinking first.
