[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here: I don't have a problem with a non native speaker teaching a foreign language.  In fact, it could be a very good thing because a non-native speaker is more acutely aware of what is difficult in learning the language. I don't even have a problem with an occasional typo or error.  I do, however, have a problem with errors in every single assignment/worksheet that comes home.  The errors, moreover, are of a very basic nature (for example, the language in question is a Romance language and the teacher  often uses the wrong gender with nouns; or wrong verb endings. I am just not sure if she is careless and does not proofread, or simply does not speak/write it very well. Ugh. My question is, is there a gentle way to approach her about this?[/quote]

Next error you see, contact teacher by email asking for clarification. It's perfectly fine to say that you took Italian in high school and you thought the plural of ragazza was ragazee. Or whatever the mistake seems to be. If you make it clear that you just want to be on the same page, there shouldn't be a problem. Being specific is more important than being "gentle". [/quote]
