French is a global language and I am thrilled to explore the language, customs, as well as the advantages of knowing French both in the U.S. and overseas with my students!

 

I studied French both in France and at San Diego State University.  I lived in France for a year with a host family who spoke no English and attended a French school where I was the only foreign student.  It was quite an experience taking physics in French!  While in France I studied economics as I wanted to get France's perspective on national and global issues.  Learning should not be painful - my goal is for my students to have fun speaking and learning French with confidence as well as to leave my class with a global perspective of events occurring around the world. 

 

Please take a glance at the map highlighting the francophone, (French speaking), countries of the world

  

I look forward to a terrific school year together!

Please feel free to contact me with any concerns or questions.
