Hours to Proficiency

[Benjamin Rifkin]

Dear SEELANGers:

The data reported by Omaggio-Hadley are confirmed in my research, specifically for Russian, reported in the Modern Language Journal in 2005:

"A Ceiling Effect in Traditional Classroom Foreign Language Instruction:  Data from Russian."  Modern Language Journal 89.1 (2005):  3-18.

Best regards to all,

BR
