I've been teaching languages for over 20 years, earning my B.A. at Fresno State and my M.A. in french at UC Santa Barbara. I came to Highland High School in the summer of 2003. My first introduction to the world of Google came in January 0f 2015 at Ridgeview High School. It was an eye opening experience. Shortly thereafter, I began to learn more and more about how Google and technology could help me work smarter...not harder! I am currently a Google Certified Education - Level 2. My goal for my students learning French (or any language for that matter) is fall in love with not just the language but the people and culture as well.
