because of things at my school, i have to choose between doing a level german or spanish and im struggling to decide- need help asap 😭
i’m getting 9s in both right now and ive always been good at languages but im still unsure
Spanish:
I find it a lot easier (because its similar to french- which I’m fluent in)
it’s becoming more popular as a language
i have friends in spain that i can practice with
BUT
the school i’d do it at is farther away than the school that does german (and my school doesn’t provide a minibus to get there)
because i have friends from spain, i can teach myself spanish and practice with them- plus it’s easier to teach myself
German:
0.3% of alevels taken is for german which means that i could benefit from speaking the language and increased opportunities because it’s becoming rarer
i do definitely enjoy it and i cant teach myself it at home
the school is a lot closer to walk to
BUT
it’s a harder language
i prefer spanish at the moment (although i still enjoy german)
spanish is becoming more popular for a reason and maybe german just isn’t as useful anymore
(For reference, i’m planning on taking chemistry and politics as my other two alevels)
please send help 🙏
