There are only three regrets in my life: not learning a foreign language to a competent level, secondly not learning to play a musical instrument and finally into learning to surf. Research published to day after the. British Council survey 1,000 students across the country in primary schools and at private schools. What they discovered - should not surprise - middle class children in the wealthy parts of the country, did pursue learning a foreign language, but that wasn’t the case for children at poor parts of England. This isn’t surprising, but is shocking. In other words the disadvantages from a very young age - persistent over time. that are the foundation stones of doing relatively well in life and throughout life. . I have three regrets: not learning a learning a musical instrument like the guitar or piano not learning to surf after - my first tries in Honolulu in 1963 and not learning to a competent level a foreign language. I worked in Germany and lived with my French 🇫🇷 girlfriend in Paris in November 1964, so I could have done so - but regrettably never did.
