Posts Tagged ‘second language’

I am thinking about seriously learning programming to wreak some havoc later on ):D. Just kidding. Anyway, what are some well-functioning and beginner-friendly programming language to learn? How long does it take usually to master a language? What should be the second language I should learn? Thanks so much!

I took French all through school and have found it very useful to have a second language that I can speak fairly fluently. So, when my own children reached school age, I’ve encouraged them to take a language too. They both chose Spanish. So, when we planned a family trip to France for last fall, I searched for a French language program that my husband and two children could take online to get a good basic understanding of the language. I researched all of the programs and the one I settled on was Rocket French. The Rocket Language series are really well put together and make it easy to start speaking the language pretty quickly. Their lessons and games, also made it really fun for my family. They learned well enough that each of them could make their way on their own during a trip. We certainly felt that the Rocket French program was a real value.
