Le Japonais à l'ÉcoleDesolée, cette page n'a pas encore été traduite en français. Voici la version anglaise. I studied Japanese from 1993 to 1997 (3rd form to 7th from, which was in the process of changing its name to year 13 at the time), and obtained a B bursary for it.
The major problem with learning languages in New Zealand, or at least at my schools, is that we were taught in English, by English-speakers, and we only learn how to think about the language rather than in it. We learnt to translate (sentence by sentence), not to understand Japanese as it is. We'd have an oral test once or twice a year and it was an event I dreaded, because we very rarely spoke the language the rest of the time.This page has been accessed  times since 2024-12-24 03:20:17 Last updated: 2007-01-04 10:08:38
