     My courses are part of a sequence, beginning with French I and continuing to French 2, 3, and 4.  Currently we offer French I, II and III and French 4 AP  My classes focus on developing listening, speaking, reading, and writing/skills, with emphasis on communication in the target language.  Students are also introduced to French speaking countries and French Culture.  
    I believe it takes a village to raise a child and I see myself as a crucial element of that village.  Every one of my students is important to me for I know that if I can make the difference in a young person then I have made the world better not only for them as individuals, but also for others, and myself as well.  I include in my classroom management discussions about proper behavior and what is acceptable to help build social skills.  I believe in positive reinforcement and motivation.  A student who is happy to be in school is a productive student ready to learn.
