My poor French teacher, she had terrible trouble with some of the class, and made us all sit with our hands on our heads. I wish I'd kept it up, learning French that is, not having my hands on my head....although.... ;-)

Ann, it's 'LA' table.......hands on head now and repeat 10 times. :-)lol.

Our french teacher used two english words a lot in our lessons.......'numbskull' and 'dunderhead', so I don't think we were very good.
