My native language is French, but I did essentially all of my education (K through grad school) in English with one exception (Grade 1). I was enrolled in ESL classes from roughly Grade 2 until Grade 4. Obviously after that I had regular English 'language arts' classes in school.

I took French as my 'second language' from Grade 4 until Grade 11. Not that I needed it, nor did I learn anything useful, but it was always a ridiculously easy (too easy) grade. I also took French as my 'second language' for the IB Diploma.

I took Spanish for three years in university (6 courses in total), i.e. the full Spanish curriculum in undergrad. I hadn't taken any Spanish courses before that, except for a joke 'Spanish exploratory' half-semester course in grade 6 which I don't remember anything about.

I took 'Arabic Culture' in elementary school in Saudi Arabia. Part of it involved learning Arabic language, although it wasn't really a language course and more of a silly waste of time mandated by the Saudi government for international schools.

I had a pretty intensive German class when I was in Grade 1 in Munich. I did well, but since it was only for one year and over 20 years ago, I don't remember much.
