changed it should not be difficult about the accent well unless taught by a Prarisean she would never aquire the pure french accent which of course is very rare for a foreigner unless he has been to Paris or has lived amongst french people I speak read and write french fluently but I have a Belgium accent & expressions as I was 2 ½ years at Ghent in a Bording School. My advice would be if it were anyway possible if she could be taught by a French person, and if possible if you have any conection or could live in with a French familly so that the ear would get trained to the sound I am living here in a French Boarding house. But I really think it a waste of good money to be taught by a foreigner & only grammar as the average teache[r]s in schools do. A native of France cant converse and put 5 lessons to one of the others beside the benefit of the real accent By no meanst waste your money on a American or English person who teaches French it is a fraud and no one can ever learn anything elese but a few declinations & a bit of grammer but no real conversation for these people us[e] no more than a bit of grammer themselves and their accent is a horror.
