If you met my HS French teacher, you would know why! She was so strict! She called home if she caught you wearing make up! She was a tiny thing, but it was her way, or the highway!
I love that teacher to this day! She taught me a beautiful language, and worked so hard with all of us.
I also had a cousin who had lived in Montreal for a few years. She came to live in my building with my Grandmother when I was in 10th grade. We spoke to each other only in French. She was fluent, and I was learning.
So, I had a lot of advantages and learned it well.
