Sedaris Practice
Alliance
Francaise at the age of 41 and learning French. It was an unpleasant experience because it was very hard
for him to adjust to a new environment. He was older, and learning a new language wasn’t easy. Sedaris
argues with the teacher, because she is giving him a hard time. The teacher shows him tough love on
purpose; Even though this was an unpleasant experience Sedaris gained knowledge from it. At the end
of the semester, he understood each and every French word. Sedaris learned by arguing with his
teacher, but in my experience, cooperating with a teacher, being flexible, and studying hard can make
us learn another language.
In conclusion, cooperating with a teacher can bring more benefits than arguing with the teacher. Also,
learning a new language can give us more opportunities for the future. Students should do what David
Sedaris didn’t do: be patient and respect your teacher.
Students should do what David Sedaris did: be argumentative and give your opinion. That can open
doors to new ideas.
