This is a redesigned version of a classic of its type, long acclaimed by French language teachers. Since the 70s, several generations of students have used this method successfully to improve their French pronunciation. Three authors with a long experience in teaching French at the university level, Henriette Gezundhajt, Philippe Martin and Elsa Michaël, have joined with Monique Léon, with a mission to propose a total reshaping of the original edition, more technology oriented and more suited to language teaching in the twenty-first century."
