Language of instruction: French
Was learning French a key decision factor?
Yes, I wanted to improve my French
How much did you improve your French?
My level before: Did not speak it
My level after: No problems in any areas (including slang)
Personal comments:
When I arrived, I didn't speak french, and I have been speaking english for 3 months as myt only one tool for speak and understand, in Belgium is fantastic because every body speak english. After, I finished my first course of french and knew a little bit more and learning every day a little bit when I finished I was able to have a fluent conversation and understand every thing.
