People underestimate the value of learning the structure of the process of learning a foreign language as early as possible.. I noticed in university that most high school subjects have about 2 years of daily curriculum that a university can magically squeeze into one semester of 3 hours a week for the students that missed it or failed to learn it.. So maybe university should start at eighth grade? Or maybe what needs to be fixed is more fundamental than foreign language; it's not much worse than the high school teaching of any subject with enough variation that a child doesn't see a social expectation applying to most adults. Personally, I think mandatory school levels should offer Esperanto, which students can use to survive any European language in university and as a structure to learn later in life when they have a better idea what they want to learn.
