Prométhée a écrit :I think you're a tad harsh. You cannot learn a language at school. You have to make some efforts by yourself. You cannot improve your understanding thanks to some cassettes you listen to in class. As for the vocabulary... it's the same problem. You cannot learn the numerous definitions for "give in", or the synonyms for "great" at school because you run out of time...
It's absolutely right, but, in France, we don't do anything to change this. For example, in Holland, when you watch TV, english films are in english, french films are in french, etc... And this help a lot in the learning of languages.

I think you mean European Section because to be in a International section, you must be bilingual.
