French
Why do you believe the teacher should be recognized or honored?
Madam Shaw has a passion for teaching French as well as possessing the ability to make learning more fun. She makes the classroom environment entertaining by providing her students with a connection to culture through French games, videos, and food. Due to Madam Shaw I am more curious to one day not only explore French-speaking countries but all countries. Because of her I understood the importance of learning about other cultures. Because of her I was motivated to go to Italy this year.
What's one thing you want everyone to know about the teacher?
She’s a great cook and has shown her appreciation towards her students through food. She has made couscous, French cookies for the holidays, and many more different types of foods found in France.
