As part of World Languages Week at Fairview High School, this episode of the Fairview Advantage Podcast spotlights the district’s French program through reflections on a student trip to Quebec.
French instructor Meghann Peters joins students Kwaw Y. and Isabella L. to discuss how the immersive experience brought classroom learning to life through language, culture, and real-world interaction. The conversation highlights student engagement with French in Montreal and Quebec City, cultural contrasts between the two cities, and memorable experiences ranging from historic landmarks to Indigenous history and local cuisine.
Students share how navigating conversations in French challenged and motivated them, deepened their appreciation for global cultures, and influenced their plans to continue studying world languages beyond high school.
