[quote=Anonymous]Latin American Studies major here, speak Spanish, Portuguese and French. I'd have to dig up my transcript to see if I took breaks from Spanish but given that your child is already at a fairly high level, I doubt taking a semester off would make a huge difference in terms of the "use it or lose it" mentality. Has your child had any type of immersion experience, or would s/he be into that idea? That's been the biggest factor in my proficiency and retention. If the interest and funds are there, maybe some type of study abroad where they could fulfill core/gen ed reqs while also being immersed in that culture? [/quote]
