I have taught all levels from kindergarten to adult continuing education. I love languages and am constantly working on improving and adding to them. I believe that if students have fun, they will learn faster and remember longer. I try to have students speak in the target language as much as possible during the limited time that they are in class.

The object of the game is to collect a full family - 6 cards. The player with the most families at the end is the winner.
Player 1 asks a player of his/her choice for a card belonging to a specific family; in this game each family is a different verb.
