I'm not so sure about that.
It's more obvious that the average French person's spoken English is
*far* better than the average English person's spoken French!
I'm English. I used to do quite well in French at school. There was only
one kid in the year better than me, I think (and he'd spent a year
living in France).
Yet still, whenever my family visited France, almost all of the French
kids spoke much better English than I could speak French.
