[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids both took TJ Spanish. Not native speakers. Did great. Not hard if you treat it like a real class. Most TJ students don’t do that and in other languages they get away with it. So I guess Spanish is “harder” in that sense. But not hard. Plenty of kids take it. There are many teachers. [/quote]

Maybe your kids have a natural proficiency for language but the general consensus at TJ among the students is that spanish is the hardest class and kids are wishing they switched to german their freshman year.  It's like everyone else is taking 16 credits and the spanish language kids are taking 20 credits.[/quote]

We heard the same from almost everyone whenDD started at TJ - to NOT take Spanish and are glad we took the advice. DD took German and LOVES it. The teacher is awesome and so is the class/language. For kids who want to do nothing and get straight A's take Russian :) Apparently there is practically nothing taiught/learnt and kids get straight As - DDs bestie has taken Russian. [/quote]

DD also switched from Spanish to German when starting TJ (thank God). She really enjoys it and I agree the teacher is wonderful. [/quote]
