Attitude of Hotel Management Students in Learning French as a Mandatory Subject: A Pilot Study
Alka Anto
Abstract: French is a mandatory subject in all the Hotel Management institutes of India. The inclusion of French as a compulsory foreign language is due to the importance of the French cuisine in the hospitality industry. A good knowledge of vocabulary related to the cuisine and a good command over the language is a necessary prerequisite for students to excel in the work domain. But the use of outdated text books and obsolete teaching methodology in teaching French are the two main aspects of our pilot study. This article intends to bring out an overview of the present situation of French in the Hotel Management institutes by conducting a pilot study with 54 students from one of the institutes of Mangalore, Karnataka.
