That's what Mr Baxter told me because I had been receiving 12 hours of English teaching per week for 6 years in Primary School . He said that's far too much.
For fucks sake, no one will be able to master a second language with only 12 hours a week. I am only slowly mastering my Japanese because I spend 40hrs on it per week. That's not even enough. I am still rather behind in some area like fixing my prononciation for Kanji.
Mr. Baxter reckons one can master a second language with only 12 hours per week and he's got his head completety up on his arse. No one unless an absolute genius can achieve such result withing that kind of short timeframe and no I am no genius.
No, a language is not like science and humanities, it just cannot be achieved quickly. It's a slow and painful journey in which Mr Baxter understands bugger all of it. He assumes me that I am capable within a few months and no that's impossible.
