Hi all,

Sorry for the weird subject:)
Anyhoo, in about 3 months me and my teen daughter and twin boy and girl move house. We will move late July to the USA from the UK when my dd1 school breaks out for Summer and the twins finish reception. The issue I am concerned about it that at her current school she does french&german the school offers spanish but to chuldren of a lower ability. Her new school gives her a choice. They have 3 language lessons a week so the school said she can try one of all three language classes in her first week so one day Spanish, the other day French and the other day German. She has to take tests,
in all of the languages to see her strengths but overall it is her decision.
Because she does not learn Spanish I am getting her a tutor to teach her Spanish up to the level the 8th grade is (she is a quick learner they just started German this year and is already above eighth grade level).
The reason I am getting her a tutor is so she is coequal in all subjects so she does not favour a particular language due to her ability.
What languages would you recommend she takes 2 of the following (French Spanish German Chinese or Italian) ?
She is learning mandarin+russian outside of school.
She does not want to do Italian but knows chinese to a certain extent.
Please let me know of any suggestions your have? :D

Thank you xxx

Now there is talk of a boarding school Le Rosey Chateau de Rosey it is in Switzerland, it is the best boarding school in the world. You are guaranteed success if you get good grades. But how can I manage a family while she is halfway across the world. Fees are no worry for me it's the fact that she will be a lengthy way away. The private school I am sending her to are one of the most prestigous best private schools in the US. There is a dilemma let her go or stay?
