Pursuing additional education after retirement is a great way to get an intellectual workout and keep your brain agile.This is the time for personal growth and an opportunity to pursue the hobbies which were postponed during your professional career. After a long academic career, I still have a passion for learning. For me learning a new language is a challenging endeavor and a continual learning process. There are many useful resources for French practice. These resources let you progress at your own pace with an emphasis on learning, and can prepare you for your French instructor, bugging you to conjugate hard verbs. So, relax and learn at a peaceful pace while enjoying a glass of wine, and let the rest of the world goes by. |
Profiter de sa retraite pour entreprendre de nouvelles études est une excellente manière d'entretenir ses facultés intellectuelles, d'assurer et de maintenir à sa pensée toute sa capacité de raisonnement, d'analyse, de vivacité. C'est le moment idéal pour vous satisfaire pleinement en vous adonnant à vos violons d'Ingres, en réalisant ces mille activités que durant votre vie professionnelle vous n'aviez trouvées l'occasion d'accomplir. |
