Today I interviewed Margo Ivanova, one of my Advanced level students who has been studying English since the first grade and with me for a semester.  She talks about her language knowledge as she studied French Philology (Language) at university and Spanish.  She speaks and understands around six languages and has wonderful experiences travelling.
