Practice Paragraph

A Trip to France
Next January I’m planning to visit my friends in France. Last time I went there I was only ten or eleven. I would love to go back again. I am taking a class called “French for Travelers.” We are memorizing vocabulary and learning the present and past tenses. I want my French to get better and I am practicing every chance I get. I rented a French film and I felt so bad because I didn’t understand a word they said. I guess I will have to make extra effort. I want to learn the language and have a better accent so that people can understand me when I am asking for directions and ordering in restaurants.
