Bonjour!<\/em> It’s been a long time since I had any semblance of regular practice at speaking, reading, or writing French. I have lost much of my previous proficiency with the language. This saddens me deeply.<\/p>\n

In high school, I earned an award from the\u00a0American Association of Teachers of French<\/a> when I participated in Le Grand Concours<\/em>. I tested into a French Lit (taught in French, all assignments to be completed in French) class in college after only two years of study in high school. My point is, I used to kick ass at French. I don’t anymore.<\/p>\n

I would like to regain some of what I have lost, but I need help to do it. So, dear readers, I’m begging you: if you can read\/ write\/ speak fran\u00e7ais<\/em>, drop me a line. I need practice to gain back my skills. Send me an email<\/a>, tweet<\/a>, or Facebook<\/a> message en fran\u00e7ais, s’il\u00a0te plait<\/em>. Merci!<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
