Customer Reviews
A MUST for every language teacher!
I have followed Annabelle for years and she truly has transformed my teaching style. She brings incredibly practical tips I can use in my classroom that day. But perhaps my favorite part is her joy, her inspiring words who make me want to be better for my students and her emphasis on authenticity and caring for ourselves as teacher. Every teacher needs to listen to her to be encouraged and to find ways to connect with our students!
Positivity for language teachers
The different episodes always seem to hit me just right… exactly when I need to hear them. Great reminders of how to have fun, stay positive and find joy in the classroom AND keep the balance with your own personal life outside of it. Thank you, Annabelle!
A Must Listen for All WL Teachers!
Listening to Annabelle’s podcast is one of my favorite things to do! Each episode is filled with so much joy and authenticity! I always gain new insights and inspiration from Annabelle. She presents relevant topics and strategies for WL educators with tried and true examples from her own classroom. I love how real she is with her listeners. I am a better teacher and person because of the lessons I’ve learned from Annabelle and I know my students are also experiencing more joy in our classroom community as a result of Annabelle. I’m so thankful for her and all that she shares with the language community!
