    I'm doing the dip with French as one of my subjects. The French part is ok. we have 1 hour of french and one of modern languages each week. the guy who does these is really really nice but i know i would not be alone in saying he has not the best french. but this semester we will be doing classes with other teachers soon. its not that hard. we have a big project to do but its not due for a while. its grand really. you should post this in the teaching and lecturing section though, u might get more replies.

    That would depend on why you want to do it and what you want out of it. And possibly what you intend to use it for.

    I think I got the wrong end of the stick, are you talking about the hdip? as in the post graduate dip in education? or are u talking about a diploma in FRench? if u have no interest in teaching french then no, I wouldn't go near it as the French part is not that big in the overall scheme of things, you have to do tons of other subjects/modules etc.

    If you just want to go on with french because u love it, try the MA in Advanced Language Skills in French

    Hi everybody,
    Just wondering if any1 is doing or has done the MA in advanced language skills? Would they recommend it? Is there sufficent time spent on your language? (Mine is French!) And would you say that it prepares you do be a translator or interpretator??
    Tanx:)!!!
