The Best Way to Learn a Foreign Language

This morning I stumbled upon a great Forbes article by Katharine B. Nelson on America’s monolingualism  and what could be done about it. Take a few minutes to read the article and see for yourself how we can change the way foreign languages are taught at US schools. Do you agree that we need to fundamentally change our foreign language curriculum to present languages as tools for communication vs. set of grammar rules? Or should we invest more money in language instructions in the present form? www.forbes.com/sites/forbesleadershipforum/2014/04/22/the-best-way-to-learn-a-foreign-language-is-the-opposite-of-the-usual-way/#3ad954a05e8e
