Come and join us to celebrate the International French Teachers’ Day!

Are you teaching French in primary or secondary school? The Institut français floor is yours!

This year’s edition of the French Teachers’ Day aims to highlight how teaching is about passing on linguistic and cultural knowledge and encouraging children to explore languages as both a communication skill and a way to surpass oneself.

For sharing is at the heart of your mission, we have decided to make this day the occasion to share with peers your inspiring projects. Participants are expected to take part in the discussions; you will be actors of the programme.

The French Teachers’ Day will also be the occasion to announce the winners of the French Teacher Award.
