Teacher expertise and credentials
I grew up in New Brunswick, the only Billingual province in Canada. I also studied French for several years, and continue to study and improve. I also have taught French both online and in the classroom. The course I have developed has been highly successful in helping students develop the ability to have a conversation in French!
