As a French as a Second Language teacher, I offer interactive classes that rely on advance planning to determine learning objectives and prepare appropriate materials. I begin the class with a quick review of the previous lesson, then introduce the new topic clearly and gradually. I use interactive activities and short questions to assess understanding, and I conclude the class with a quick summary and homework to promote ongoing learning. I pay attention to individual differences between students and use technology to enhance the learning experience, with an emphasis on enhancing understanding of French culture.
