About Me:: I have taught Adult learners for the past 10 years. After volunteering at my children's school last year I have now got the job of French teacher!

I have my first French lesson next Tuesday, as I said before i normally and still do teach adults and am not a qualified teacher for this age group but I volunteered all of last year at my children's school and now have the job of French teacher and TA too.
I am so looking forward to it and found a great book called 100+ fun things to do in the Primary MFL Classroom - it has given me lots of ideas for young and old alike.
Look forward to working with you all.

Welcome to our lovely network group! Like you I teach French and Spanish, so if you are after something specific, I might be able to help. Hopefully we will then be able to swap great ideas and resources! If you are after general resources , I have a large collection of links on my blog http://isabellejones.blogspot.com If you click on the relevant del.icio.us tag e.g. primary, you will be able to view all the pmfl sites I have bookmarked.
Hope it is of use!

Welcome to our networking site. I hope you find it useful and do please post things here whenever you want; you could tell us what you've been up to in a blog post, ask general questions/start discussions in the forum or just click directly on members to chat or ask specific questions to people.

We welcome each other's comments on the forum discussions andyou can make your own blog pages whenever you wish; At the moment all blogs get automatically posted onto the Main page but if you are new to blogging and want to try on your own page without this happening just click on me and leave me a message.

You should be able to download materials from forum and blog posts too, and of course add your own in the same way as you would an email attachment - just follow the instructions on screen.

You probably know this already, but just in case - to contact someone just find them in members and click on them. This takes you to their page and tells you a little about that person. Then just leave a message for them in a comment box like this one. Or, if you'd like your message to be private, click on 'send a message' beneath their picture.

Ocasionally you will get messages asking if you would like to be someone's 'friend'. The only advantage to this is if you want to find someone quickly on a large network, otherwise there is really no need and you can happily ignore the request or click 'decline' with no offence to anyone.

I hope you find the network useful.
Best wishes, Jo
