I am a languages teacher who has, over the years, created many resources for teaching French and Spanish. I also produce resources in other languages: German, Italian, and more recently, Greek. Here I am sharing a few of these, in the hope it makes a hard-working teacher's life a little easier at a time when they need something quickly. Often adding more resources, so watch this space!
