  • Hey guys! This week's video is about how to do well in GCSE French! In this video, I talk about how I got a 9 in French how you can do it too!
    I was planning on posting this video last Friday and posting another video today, but I ended up being swamped by work at school. I'm still thinking of uploading twice a week, but I will be delaying this transition until February.
    Thank all of you so much for watching, I really hope that you enjoyed this video and found it useful. I tried to get straight to the point and be more concise than my last revision video!
    If you have any further questions about this video, please leave me a comment below or dm me on instagram @asia._.marie and I will happily answer anything!
    Thank you!!

    I don’t know whether to do french or latin. I know that both are technically languages but I guess latin is a dead language not a modern foreign language like french so should I do french or latin because I enjoy latin more and I hate french, I’ll probably get a C or a B if I’m very lucky in french compared to an A or a B if I’m unlucky in latin but the point is french will be much worse than latin would be and than my other subjects will be so is there any point doing it? I’m not going to pursue either of them to a-level btw. I mean I’ve heard people say that universities love latin but I’ve also heard people say that some universities really want you to have done a modern foreign language. I’ve already sorted out all my other options and I can only do one language so I can’t do both. At the moment I am thinking about doing maths, psychology and history for a-level and doing law at university that makes a difference, but that could easily change. Also I’m really not planning to have anything to do with France, I don’t want to work there and I don’t plan to go on holiday there, perhaps once but that’s it. Advice?

    • @AsiaMarieYT
      @AsiaMarieYT  2 роки тому +2

      The decision is entirely yours to make so I’ll simply say that it’s best to do something you’ll enjoy. GCSEs are hard and there will be times when you don’t feel like revising and it’ll be even worse if you hate your subjects. Don’t be influenced too much by what other people say - take it into consideration but ultimately you know what’s best for you. Hope this helps 🙂🤞🏾

      French is a really hard language, to be fair. It takes a lot of time and practice. Try not to be too hard on yourself. These tips worked for me personally and I hope they’ll work for you, too. A lot of them were taught to me by my French teacher so hopefully it helps you. Maybe try asking your classmates or your teacher for some extra help? Try to figure out exactly which parts you’re struggling with and start there 😊👍🏾
