Final Class!

We have now officially finished the Ooh La La French for Fun! program at Blue Ash Elementary School. Throughout the program, I have been extremely impressed with the level of enthusiasm, creativity and hard work to make each class a success. I have appreciated your willingness to try new things, to reflect on your experiences and to work together as a team.

For me personally, this was a very rewarding experience. Professors generally see their students on the "other side of the desk" in a classroom. In this program, I had the opportunity to see my students as teachers, teaching a subject matter they are in the process of learning themselves. I have never taught a class of young children before and as an observer in these classes, I gained a great appreciation for the challenges and skills needed. You all rose to the occasion and created a rapport with the kids in your classes. Bravo!

Thank you all for your participation, your comments, ideas and suggestions throughout the full 10 weeks of the quarter. You have all contributed to making the first offering of this course a great success.

Congratulations! I am proud of all of your accomplishments and glad to hear that it was a worthwhile and enjoyable experience for all of you.

Je vous remercie très chaleureusement. Au plaisir de travailler ensemble encore à l'avenir!
