To promote the numbers of French teachers both in Ireland and worldwide, the FTA Irlande, the official association of French teachers in Ireland, is delighted to launch a new programme of mentoring for future teachers of French in Ireland — Le Mentorat associatif de futurs enseignants de français langue étrangère en Irlande 2025.
Organised by the FTA Irlande, with the support of the French Embassy in Ireland and the European branch of the International Federation of French Teachers (CEO-FIPF), this short series of online sessions will provide support for PME /BEd. student teachers of French as they embrace the challenges of classroom teaching and school placements.
These sessions will run during the 2nd semester from February – April 2025. The content will be in response to students’ requests but will typically cover such topics as lesson planning, active learning, classroom management, creating and using resources, inclusive teaching, collaborative teaching, evaluation and reflection.
Register for the programme here, for free.
The programme will be organised and carried out on a voluntary basis by qualified and experienced teachers and examiners of the FTA Irlande with occasional interventions from European colleagues. Participating students who wish the join the FTA Irlande will be eligible for a very nominal introductory rate. Again, registration for the programme is free.
We hope you will be part of this exciting new mentoring programme and are happy to answer any questions that you may have at secretaryftacarrick@gmail.com.
Best wishes et à bientôt !
