In a manner of speaking - Modern Languages

This weeks episode comes from the modern languages dept, and we speak to Mrs Belshaw who is the faculty head, and Miss Whyte who is a French and Spanish teacher.  There are many benefits of learning languages and it is a proven fact that People who speak more than one language have improved memory, problem-solving and critical-thinking skills, enhanced concentration, ability to multitask, and better listening skills.

I remember when I was at school "why do I need to Learn German", and for many years that would be true, until I started taking people on holiday on my coach, all over the continent where it might have been quite useful to know a second language....

Have a listen hopefully there will be something in this episode that might inspire you.  For a start here is the story of the two French cats....

'Two french cats, called one-two-three and Un-Deux-Trois were in a swimming race.....Which cat won?

One-two-three, because Un-Deux-Trois-cat-sank..........   Sorry!!
