If you have been keeping up with the tasks you set for yourself on the “Find French at Home” assignments, you are well on your way to becoming a lifelong French learner. As you know by now, having regular habits of conversing with French speakers, getting information from French sources, and participating in French cultural events, can set you up for unique opportunities throughout your life. Take a few moments to reflect on your experience developing these habits, and how you imagine your connection to French unfolding over the next several years. Write one paragraph about your experience developing these habits and how you project you will stay connected to French and its culture.

In a second paragraph, reflect on how knowing French will help you in your life academically, personally, socially, and even professionally. Give specific examples and details.
