Hello! I am based in the UK and I am a qualified languages (French and Spanish) teacher who is currently working privately teaching French and Italian. During my PGCE year - which I finished with honours - I created lots of resources that I am now sharing on TES. This website helped me a lot during my training and I am now hoping to be just as useful to somebody else!
