Get Acquainted

My name is Mrs. Phillips..... but in French that would be Madame Phillips with Madame abbreviated to Mme. Most students in French classes call their teachers Madame, Mademoiselle or Monsieur.


So I'd love it if you called me Madame.

​Let's Talk about French Class!

Why are you taking a foreign language?

Why did you choose French?

​I don't expect perfection ... from myself or from you.

I want you to pass.... which means doing some work.
I expect you to listen to me....... I will listen to you.
I want you to tell me when you're lost.... don't just sit there or hide.
Cameras? If it's up to me, I want them on. We will follow the policy.
I am asking you to be patient with me if something glitches.
I'm all about respect. Please respect each other, me and yourself!
RE-do's on written work are a part of the learning process .. IMHO

​Kind of hot in August.

I just got the $1100+ electric bill to prove it.

Our schools don't open until right after Labor Day

But the school year ends mid June.

​--I teach both French and English.
--We have a multi generational living situation here.
-- I retired in 2019.... but like to stay semi busy.
== Really.... I want to make life as nice as possible for my son and his family.
-- I am the family cook.
--I love to read, watch movies/tv, do jigsaw puzzles, crossword puzzles, prepare feasts/treats for my family, I used to love to entertain/host parties, etc. I also used to love to travel.....

​Do you have questions?

What are we going to do tomorrow?
