I am looking into the Michel Thomas courses for my cousin, and I am completely confused at the moment. Could someone explain the difference between the Michel Thomas French Foundation Course and Michel Thomas French for Beginners? Thanks in advance!

Foundation is the course after the Begiinners, so you would want the Beginners if he has
no experience.

"Foundation" is the course title in the UK.
"for Beginners" is the course title in the USA.
There is no difference between the actual content.
In the US, the "get started kit" is just the first couple of hours of "for Beginners", so start with "for Beginners".
