[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's misguided to think it's just an "easy A" for "native speakers" - Even "native speakers" can benefit from a language program. I grew up on the Texas border and my Spanish class was full of native speakers - but many of them still had issues with grammar and other aspects of the language. Just because it's spoken at home doesn't necessarily mean there is appropriate fluency and proficiency.[/quote] Sure they can benefit but putting native speakers into the same class as non-native speakers doesn't serve either group. For all intents and purposes, the upper grade Mandarin classes in MoCo serve as an "easy A" for native speakers. Since grades are on a curve, it's never an "A" for non-native speakers which is a consideration for what you want to appear on your transcript for college admissions.[/quote]
