Language sometimes seems to be a way that the populations of the world are separated. This is unfortunate, as any student of language will be able to tell you that people say largely the same things in each language. We even use very similar words in specific situations. To combine a language lesson with a plausible scenario is to give it context. There are ways that you can learn French fast by concentrating on materials that use context to...more
It's no secret to language teachers that music is of great educational value. One of the ways to tackle the challenge of French is to help students to learn French songs. If you remember learning French yourself, there's likely a memory in there about having sheet music placed in front of you and reading the text off of the page.

Not for nothing did Samuel Johnson once asseverate that when one is tired of London, one is tired of life, meaning that London essentially held every variety of marvel, beauty and achievement that the world could offer. The quote was a product of the 19th century; in the 21st, it holds ever more true as the natural beauty of the Thames embrace and historic buildings is complemented by the colorful tides of multiculturalism, art and technology which have washed into the city with its thriving economy and industrialism, all of which cement the citys position as one of the grand dames of the world.
