Can you help me? Bob | Dear George, I’m learning French but I don’t get good marks. I don’t know why.

You should never give up, and I’m sure that you’ve made more progress than you think. You can talk to your teacher and ask her what you should do to get a better grade. Talk to your friends who are good at French. Find something that helps you. George |
