I enjoyed each one, but I really didn't retain enough to be particularly useful in any of of them. I can memorize vocabulary and conjugations, but when it comes to putting it all together, I'm rotten at it. Not sure why. Which languages did you try?Kirra Antrobushttp://kirraantrobus.blogspot.com/p/welcome.htmlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7808945529539475564.post-84606664201094852412014-04-10T10:05:25.098-05:002014-04-10T10:05:25.098-05:00I have tried unsuccessfully to learn three foreign...I have tried unsuccessfully to learn three foreign languages and six musical instruments.

(me, the high school dropout) He said that God gave him a brain and he felt he should use it. I have since returned to finish high school as an adult, and am now working on my second post graduate qualification. I reckon God spoke to me that night.DA Cairnshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14891944631357476250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7808945529539475564.post-79772244240060868572014-04-09T08:02:24.486-05:002014-04-09T08:02:24.486-05:00Thanks!!Thanks!!Kirra Antrobushttp://kirraantrobus.blogspot.com/p/welcome.htmlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7808945529539475564.post-27965818797743957742014-04-09T08:02:09.845-05:002014-04-09T08:02:09.845-05:00Choir was the only class I had after lunch, not in...Choir was the only class I had after lunch, not including the one or two once weekly night classes I took. I think choir was at 1:00 for us because we had to come straight from lunch.

I don't know that there were any unusual teaching methods, but my first year at CBC they opted out of 7 am classes. I was thankful for that! Have a great evening!<br /><br />DonnaDonna Sislernoreply@blogger.com
