Salut!
I've been taking french immersion since first grade, but I haven't taken french the past three years and decided to sign up for the french immersion class for this year of highschool. I just realized it will mean writing essays and doing hard assignments that I don't think I'm ready for, and my school doesn't allow you to change classes because of the large amount of students that go to it (over 2000).
I'm really scared I'm going to fail that class and that it is going to effect my GPA, I just don't know how to conjugate very well. I can read it and speak it very well, almost fluently, but I fail miserably at writing it. Do you think i'll have a chance?? I'm super worried so sorry if this doesn't make any sense what so ever.
(sorry for not writing this in french, I would probably horribly misspell everything!)

For me it's just learning all the rules, like with the futur simple you take the infinitive (re verbs take of the 'e') and put the conjugation of 'avoir' on the end depending which person you are conjugating. If it's for an assignment then you can check online right? There's a site which is more or less a online dictionary in French (and a bunch of other languages too, but the best support is for French, Spanish and Italian.) and you can search for any verb, and it will have all its conjugations for all the tenses (Not near future, as that's a doddle to conjugate.) and it has lots of idioms as well. It is geared towards European French, so some phrases (which will be mostly slang anyway) are different, but they sometimes do give the different options depending what country's french you're speaking. It's
