De zéro à...bilingue?

S1 E2
·
2020

Abigail Alves Murta, a Franco-Toronto native, knows how difficult it is to maintain her French language in an English-speaking environment. If it's a challenge for Francophones, what about Anglophones who want to become bilingual and master the language of Molière? Through the experiences of four former French immersion students, we ask ourselves if it is really possible to go from zero to bilingual when English is everywhere. With Mimi Scowen, Eleanor Dennis, Yamari Martin-Halsall, Luke Gagliardi, Chantal Bourbonnais, Matthew Hayday, Liam O'mara and Sylvie Roy.
