Can anyone give me a liitle insight into how French is taught in high schools?
My DD comes home with pieces of written homework to complete . There are English phrases and their French counterparts. Tonight she had to make up a weather report using these stock phrases. She cannot pronounce any of the French correctly and really only knows what it means because she has the English translation in front of her.
What emphasis is there on oral practice? Surely there should be loads of spoken French before introducing the writing.
