View Full Version : Is french important for later life?
I never bothered to listen in french, in yr 7, now i dont know the basics, so its hard to understand, i wonna learn, is it important for later life or GSCE exams etc...?
Knowing another language looks good on your CV when you're applying for a job. May give you more opportunity aswell.

It all depends on your intrests and what you want to do for a living later and where you want to work (what country).
I have "done" 5 years of french now, but I still stink because it's hard, boring and stupid. I can understand most of the thing they say and I can understand most things I read, but I really can't speak or write it, then I have to think too much about those stupid grammar rules. Thank god this is my last year of french. :)
So it's all up to you really wether french is important or not later in life, but an extra language is always handy. ;)

French is ok, my teacher is boring. But in tests we're allowed all our books out. Our french teacher said even in gcse's and A levels we're allowd all our books to look at. bit stupid tho cuz u dont have to learn as much

When thinking about a career, the possession of a basic qualification in a foreign language will be a real asset and give you a much wider choice of jobs, espcially since Britain's linked with Europe and growing so rapidly.

It depends on the job you want.

It'll look good in your resume, and I take French.
Dunno about you, but you get a lot of respect for knowing more than 2 languages where I live.

1. Untrue, Most people DONOT speak English, the most commonly spoken language is actually Chinese.
2. Employers LIKE people who can speak other languages. (Like my mum)
