<p>HSMom–I was interested in your comments about how the tutor doesn’t work. How many hours per week would you recommend? Did you use CD’s or any listening component in addition to the tutoring? My daughter goes to a chinese school (she’s 12) one day per week, but I’m the only parent that can’t help her with her homework (we speak only English) and she complains about the immersion method. She would prefer only a tutor so she can ask questions. I’m kind of looking ahead to next year as to the best way to continue. She is interested in Arabic --looking for tutors as they won’t let her in at the CC until she is 16 (even for continuing ed courses–which they offer) We just started a CD for the car (Behind the Wheel) for French, and we like it , and were thinking of possibily purchasing some other languages. It seems to hold your interest. Thanks for the input!!!</p>
