Model Essay(范文)：
Most of the schools that I attended bad excellent programs and instructors. Unfortunately, atone school this was not the case. The foreign language program there needed both betterplanning and better instructors. If I could, I would make changes in three major areas.
The first step would be to offer third and fourth year language classes. This particular schoolhad no language programs above the second year level. Students who started language classesin the first year ran out of classes to talk by the time they were halfway through the school.This was frustrating for those of us who loved learning languages. It also had bad affects whenwe tried to resume language studies in college after a two-year break.Next, the foreignlanguage program should be staffed with well-trained instructors. The current teachers in theprogram don’t speak the languages well enough. In our classes teachers frequently made errorswhile the students repeated. If the teachers were well-trained, they would be good models forthe students.
Finally, the materials in the language courses should be updated. They need to use moderntechnology. Even though the school has a computer laboratory, our language class never usedit. We were limited to using the assigned textbook. If software was available, the studentscould search the Internet for current, real-life materials, such as newspapers from othercountries.
Understanding people from other countries depends on being able to communicate with them.Poor language instruction makes this impossible. Improving the foreign language programwould really make a difference to the students of the school.
