I've been to Paris, as well as on a bike tour in Provence and to Montreal (in Quebec). But I don't speak French.

The Rosetta Stone language programs are really good for languages, though. 

As for places to go, well, the Arc d'Triomphe, the Louvre, the Tuileries, the Eiffel Tower if you don't mind standing in line for an hour (the view is amazing, though, I recommend it), etc...

Did you know the Eiffel Tower is brown? It's weird because it looks black in all the pictures I've ever seen... *shrugs* Odd.
