[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't start over. A B is not struggling. If she wants an A, get her a good tutor, preferably a current or retired teacher who can prep her for the tests, pals . . . . My daughter was initially disappointed with her first quarter grades in both Spanish 2 and 3. She made appointments with her teachers and gave a bit more effort. Went on to take AP Spanish senior year and is a Spanish minor in college.[/quote] +1 Great reframe. Please remember that a grade of B is not a sign of failure or poor performance. She would be fine with 4 years of B Spanish. That said, my DC, who did struggle with Spanish (in part because of poor instruction) did start over with a new language in 9th grade. He did three years of Arabic (got Bs) and didn't take a language in his senior year. Happily attending his first choice college.[/quote]
