I don't know why they think it's easy for kids to understand whacko British accents. Oh, and I was looking up EFL books online, and guess what country produced Cup of Tea? France. Figures!<BR/><BR/>Le Tigre, we could complain about this program for days and not run out of things to talk about! That's a great point about uniform education though, I didn't even think about that. It totally blows the entire philosophy behind public education out of the water. What I want to know is where is the money they should be spending on putting supplies in the classroom going? Travel vouchers to pacify frequent travellers after the strikes, perhaps?au soleil levanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11064160087622989411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3057784862632486139.post-8661317460202743452008-03-19T14:41:00.000-04:002008-03-19T14:41:00.000-04:00Yeah, the lack of materials is pure hypocrisy beca...Yeah, the lack of materials is pure hypocrisy because the French education system is supposedly meant to be uniform so that the education you recieve doesn't differ from school to school. Of course, that's just 'republique' propaganda. I have spent quite a bit of money on materials. Only one of my schools had any materials at all, basically just an Eye Spy book and I photocopied the whole thing.

One woman on the CD has such a terrible accent, I swear she might be mentally challenged (that's the nicest way I could put it).Monique Geislerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14970594325143598615noreply@blogger.com
