Struggling with French A-Level

HI,
I am struggling with the jump between GCSE French to A Level French and was wondering if anybody had any tips/useful websites that I can use.
Thank you in advance!
Hey,
Firstly I just wanted to say don't panic, I absolutely **** myself in the first few weeks of AS French because it was so difficult and I ended up with an A, so chill. In terms of websites, these are useful:
kerboodle.com (but I think you need a username and stuff, your school should have that if you're with AQA)
http://www.s-cool.co.uk/a-level/french
http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/gcsebitesize/french/ (I know this is GCSE but it's still really useful for grammar)
Linguee is also a much better translator than google translate, which becomes pretty much useless at AS level.

I'd also recommend buying the book 'Mot a Mot' it was my bible for French and you can probably get it cheap, second hand on Amazon or eBay.

Hope this helps :smile:
