I am here to connect about my favorite things: curriculum development and design, coaching teachers, running francophone exchange programs, sailing, and swing dancing.

So much to be thankful for in 2025. Even more to look forward to in 2026!

NECTFL is so proud of our ACTFL National Language Teacher of the Year, Nathan Campbell. We invite you to join an informal interview to learn about his journey, tips, and ideas. nectfl.wufoo.com/forms/k167uj... then come to the Northeast Conference in February to meet him: nectfl.org/2026-conference/

This year, I changed my IIIH curriculum from a survey of francophone history to quarterly themes: being heard, seen, known, and accepted. This student’s art beautifully tied in our longest text with the overarching themes (and my hobby!) to remind us that language is about culture and connection.

NECTFL is always a homecoming. From friendly faces at registration, to my AI panel with the amazing Ryan, Benjamin, Abelardo, and Julia, to my LEAPers with Leslie (Cohort 1 graduated!), to quiet conversations in side alleys and over reception cheese, it’s good to belong.

ACTFL members keep your eyes out for your print copy of TLE (or peruse the digital one here www.thelanguageeducator.org/.../winter_2...). T-10 until I'm back in Guadeloupe taking photos of my students jumping like me 👇🏻. Mes ami.e.s tahitien.ne.s vont voir quelques oeuvres de chez eux aussi!

Highly recommend this book: research & strategies to support understanding of the science behind learning. Ex: an expert can mental map and a novice cannot yet. We use graphic organizers to help students get there but we can’t expect them to create their own early on in learning.

I'm delighted to announce that I've been selected as a Fulbright Hays Scholar through AATF. I look forward to returning to this place that will always hold a piece of my 🧡 and to working for a month with an exceptional group of K-16 educators to create free francophone resources for French teachers.

This time next week I'll be landing in Philadelphia for ACTFL's convention! I can't wait to connect with you all at the First Time Session (Friday at 7:15a), at my Friday session on decolonizing resources (Friday at 3:30p), in the expo hall, over a cup of coffee (or something stronger)…
