re: Enormous waste of time in schools

quote:

I have three immediate relatives, one is class valedictorian, with multiple years of Spanish credit and yet none can speak or read very much of the language. Why are schools wasting time providing a subject with no value? Does anyone on the OT know of a success story?

No

Nobody knows anyone who successfully began learning a foreign language in school and went on to some level of proficiency

We should write our congressmen
