Many of you would run a mile at the thought of brushing up on your vocabulary and grammar, but you should know that language summer schools have an extensive curriculum that involves much more than sitting in a classroom reciting the future tense until your head spins.

Leaving Cert language subjects are designed in the view of giving students a practical and working ability in communicating in their chosen tongue. The examinations consist of a written exam as well as an aural and oral. Practice in speaking casually will be of extreme value to any student and if your parents aren’t exactly jumping at your suggestion of emigrating to the French Rivera for a few months to learn how to speak like a native than you may be more successful in floating the idea of a French Language Summer School.
