1. Le Point du FLE
A roundup of everything available online for French grammar and exercises. It is a complete directory of grammar topics covered on the web: look up one specific point or browse the different themes.
2. Le Conjugueur
To conjugate a verb without mistakes, for example when you are writing, Le Conjugueur (by Le Figaro) is the place to go. Whatever the verb, you get every tense (présent, passé composé, imparfait…) and every mood (subjonctif, conditionnel…).
3. Bonjour de France
A great site to learn French from beginner to advanced. You will find clear grammar points with exercises, quizzes and mini-tests to practise before an exam.
4. Français Facile
Despite a dated look, Français Facile is full of good resources: clear explanations, matching exercises, and corrections so you can see your results and spot your mistakes. The exercise bank, sorted by topic, is huge.
5. Podcast Français Facile
Ideal if you like learning with audio. The site offers grammar lessons with exercises and recordings, sorted by grammar point (pronouns, articles, tenses…).
6. eLearning French
A free English-language site with French grammar lessons, common expressions and exercises. Handy for English-speaking beginners who want simple explanations, with audio.
7. Tex’s French Grammar
The University of Texas grammar reference (in English). Very thorough and clear, it covers every grammar point with self-correcting exercises. Perfect for reviewing one specific rule.
8. Lawless French
An English-language site by Laura K. Lawless, with grammar lessons sorted by level (A1 to C1) and by category. Detailed explanations, quizzes and exercises: an excellent, regularly updated reference.
Try this: don’t spread yourself thin. Pick one site for theory and one for exercises, then work on one grammar point at a time until you master it before moving on.
Go faster with a teacher
These sites are perfect for reviewing and practising, but they cannot correct your own sentences. To really improve, nothing beats personal feedback. A native French teacher spots your recurring mistakes and explains the rule at the right moment in online lessons over Zoom. You can start with a free trial lesson and evaluation.
