Bonjour ! My name is Samantha Decker, and I am a middle school French teacher in upstate New York.
The French Corner was started as a website in November 2003 with the purpose of teaching basic French to anyone who wants to learn it. It was then expanded to provide information about France, especially Paris, and French and francophone culture. In 2007, the French Corner made the transition into a blog. Over the years, the focus of the blog has drifted more towards teaching French as opposed to learning it.
I am a proud member of the New York State Association of Foreign Language Teachers (NYSAFLT).

Contributing
If you have written a piece you think would be relevant to the French Corner (about French language, education or culture) or would like to write something specifically for the blog, please contact me about contributing! The point of a blog is to share information, and I would love to have more voices here! People who have contributed in the past have added a great flavor to the French Corner. Please DO NOT contact me about featuring a product or service in your post.
The French Corner was mentioned in the August/September 2014 issue of The Language Educator, published by ACTFL.
