Your questions answered
I'm an A1 beginner: is this podcast for me? — I'm sure it is. Cultivate Your French is the podcast for you to pick up words you already know and to get used to the pronunciation.
I'm at A2/B1 level (elementary): is this podcast for me? — Cultivate Your French is a good start for improving your comprehension skills because the same text is said twice. It is said slowly once and then a t normal speed. It's great training for comprehension.
I already have a good level of French (B2/C1/C2): is this podcast for me? — One Thing In A French Day is for you. It's the perfect podcast for developing or maintaining your understanding of French. I speak naturally and at my true speed.
Will I be able to understand other French people ? Yes, of course, because once your brain is used to the way I speak, it will very easily adapt to other people way of speaking. You will easily check this when there are other people speaking on the podcast. This way, you will be able to start understanding and enjoying more media and have more nice conversations with teachers or friends.
Why Are Written Texts Crucial for Effective French Learning? The podcast episodes are primarily written texts. This approach is a significant advantage of my content: you're experiencing French as you should learn it, with proper syntax. When you master the written form, you can express yourself correctly. Understanding purely conversational French will then become much easier. Having the complete text of interviews is particularly valuable, as it allows you to notice the nuanced differences between spoken and written French.
