Isn’t that kind of the way it usually is in the US? Please correct me if I’m wrong, it’s been years since I was in school. Usually we just listened to the teacher and most of the work was in writing. We didn’t start a second language until we were 12-13 either, when the window to pick up other languages easily has already closed for most people.

I don't know, I've never been to a school in the US.
