I attended the language school at the Presidio and the training was first rate. The best way to learn to speak a foreign language is from native speakers — and that was the Language School’s approach.
Good for you. Must have been fascinating. And yet, I know you have to start with a knack or an ear for languages.
Whatever it is, I have ZERO, though excelled at other subjects. My daughter picks up languages wherever she goes...including Arabic, but I’m stuck in English. Proudly:)
