UK Language Teaching at All Time Low?
An interesting article in the Register about the state of language instruction in the UK.
An interesting quote from the article (regarding recent changes to programs) -
Laws laments: "They reduce foreign language study to a functional skill that teaches the sort of thing you find in a 'get by' phrase book. It is selling young people short and is unlikely to inspire anyone to see languages as anything other than mechanical and boring."
