Je me présente!

Hi! I’m Sabina, an insanely passionate ESOL and MFL (French and German) teacher with 10 years teaching experience in private, online, secondary and further education settings. At the moment, I am teaching English to adults in a college environment, as well as Business English online and offering French and German tutoring for conversation, moving to a new country and for GCSE and A Level examinations.

Just to clarify, to no extent am I ‘The Ideal Teacher’, since I am definitely a ‘work in progress’ when it comes to teaching. However, I stand by the philosophy of teach・reflect・discuss・learn・create・repeat in order to strive towards becoming a better teacher.

This is a space to share my own French and German KS3, GCSE and A Level resources (including links to handouts, worksheets and PowerPoints), as well as my English language teaching resources. I will also add reflections, events during the school/college day, things that make me smile and knowledge that I have acquired from others to help me meet my aim of becoming The Ideal Teacher…one day!
