>> Darian, I currently take french II. I'm a sophmore in high school. Braille is the best way to learn a foreign language. That way, you can learn what the different accents feel like. I use a braillenote for the class, which I find very easy because it has a french option built-in to the utilities menu. Is this the first language class you've ever taken? Because if so, they should teach you the rules of grammar in the class itself.
