“Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! The iPad session with Lisa was excellent. I left confident and motivated. I spent the evening playing with the various Apps and did a bit of exploring on my own.
Thanks to you, I have taken a few steps closer to iPad proficiency and my personal Professional Development goals. I even plan to use the iPads in class first thing on Wednesday morning for something other than reflection. Yeah!”

Her work on Primary MFL is a fantastic source of inspiration to those of us seeking to advance the cause of languages in the UK.
