The study of a foreign language is a progressive experience and requires a progressive acquisition of linguistic skills. The degree to which those skills are developed will correlate with a student’s ability to use the language. In order to be successful as they advance through the various levels of Chinese, French, German, Latin or Spanish, students must demonstrate appropriate skills and performances as they are defined for each level of language learning.
