"Reminding yourself of forgotten French becomes a joy with this highly interactive site. The layout is easy-peasy: find your level, choose a topic, such as food, holidays, or buying presents, then start practising. Instead of word lists to memorise, there are plenty of activities to attempt. Try word- and sound-matching exercises, listen to a conversation and work out what has been said, or use your mouse to fill in the missing words in puzzles. Your efforts will be marked by machine — and, for once, the feedback is helpful. Even with its hundreds of varied activities, ZUT helps with only parts of the syllabus, but it does so exceptionally well."

"ZUT's French extension ZUT, the website for teachers and learners of French run by teacher Cath Murphy which was featured in this column last September, has been extended with a new AS and A-level section. And watch out for her new German service, with the provisional name GUT, which goes live in two to three months."
