Hey y'all,
I’m super excited to invite you to a free webinar this Saturday, September 20th at 2PM (Eastern):
In this session, I’ll walk you through how I design my weekly À la une lessons—turnkey resources built around authentic media like Instagram posts, news articles, and folk stories. You’ll see how these resources can spark real communication across proficiency levels, connect students to diverse voices and cultures, and make class time more compelling.
By the end of the webinar, you’ll walk away with:
A ready-to-use sample resource you can teach right away.
Practical strategies to help students interpret, discuss, and present about real-world topics.
Ideas for centering joy and excellence among historically marginalized communities in your classroom.
This webinar also kicks off something even bigger: the AfroFranco Teacher Collective PLC is opening its doors from Sunday, Sept. 21 through Sunday, Sept. 28.
Inside the PLC, you’ll get:
Weekly “À la une” resources (like the one we’ll work with in the webinar).
Access to my entire archive of shared lessons.
Monthly webinars + recordings to deepen practice.
Extended access to classroom footage, lesson walkthroughs, and strategies in action.
A collaborative network of French teachers committed to CI, interculturality, and belonging.
If you’ve ever felt like a department of one, or struggled to find French-first resources that actually align with CI and proficiency-based teaching, this space was built for you.
👉 Register for the free webinar now. Bring a colleague. And spread the word—let’s make French teaching more joyful, more connected, and more sustainable, together.
See you Saturday!
