Abstract
This article explores French students` perceptions of their previous English language learning experience in France as compares with an excerpt from a sketch by a compatriot comedian, Gad Elmaleh (2006). After my own analysis of the sketch, five main critiques of the English education he received are identified and descriptions and rationales for two alternative approaches to language teaching, content-based instruction and task-based language teaching, are briefly presented.
