I am a senior at a university that requires 4-semesters of a language for its history majors. (101,102,201,202). But I am TERRIBLE at languages. I have tried Spanish, German, Japanese, Greek, Latin and even Sign Language, and couldn't get better then a D in any of them no matter how hard I study. There is just something about languages that I can't grasp.
I am now in my senior year, finishing up my senior seminar and my attempt at taking Spanish, which I am almost sure I won't pass. I have no idea what to do... I just can't learn a language, its impossible. I've tried everything. Learning language programs (Rosetta stone and the like), tutors (both the free ones at the school and paying for one), study groups, everything... but my head just can't wrap around different languages.
Does anyone have any idea what I can do? Is there any way to get around this language requirement? I've even considered switching to a new school that doesn't require a language, but that would be really expensive. I'm just so... lost. I don't know where to go from here.
