French

Have you ever taken a French class? If not, you should probably start by taking one. 
If you’re not interested in doing that, then you might try getting a copy of the textbook and reading a couple chapters at a time and doing the practice exercises.  
You’ll also probably want to watch a few movies or other media in French.

Okay. How should I practice my French speaking skills?

Try to use French in your day-to-day life as much as you can, either to speak to people in real-life or to speak to a piece of software.

That's a good idea. Any other tips to pick up a foreign language like French?
