Observing #MFL lessons (SP, IT and DE, not just EN) at our partner collège/lycée on Paris. Helps me see some of my/our ideas about teaching languages in a v different light. It's good to see something completely different sometimes! So much of what we teach is exam-led. A shame.
This is the funding program that we have mentioned to some Italian teachers over the past year. A great opportunity for those who had missed the deadline. Spread the news! @salvocacciato
Funding for upskilling for #language teachers is available! Check the details here: https://t.co/WhDmtWCsPL #Edchatie #MFLie @jctMFL @PDST_MFL
