Senior Krishaan Vadia participates in a conversation line during a morning French Honors Society meeting. Vadia is the vice-president of the club, and the conversations are a way to get younger members more comfortable with the language. “I really enjoy the collaborative, non-judgmental aspect of French conversation tables,” Vadia said. “It encourages us to use our knowledge of the language more organically without worrying too much about perfect grammar. I think it makes us all more comfortable with the experimentation that comes with learning a new language.”
