Question: How Can I Learn Another Language for Free?

Answer: High school students: your school probably offers courses in the basic languages - French, Spanish, Italian, perhaps German. Take advantage of the opportunity! If you're college bound, you'll probably need two years of a foreign language for admittance - take the courses, become fluent for student travel, and fulfill college admission requirements at the same time! Many states also offer high school students the option to take language courses at a community college and your high school pays the tuition. You'll also receive both college and high school credits if you take this route.

Ask your counselor; if he or she doesn't know the details regarding your high school paying for your language courses at a community college, post a question to the forum - your About Guide has all the answers!
