Theories of Reading

As a Literacy Specialist, I have studied for many years now how people learn to read. The combination of this knowledge and my mother tongue being French has given birth to Le Français Facile! My first degree was a Bachelor of Science in Biology. My second was a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology, where I specialized in Reading and Learning. My current study is a Masters of Education in Curriculum Development. Having studied with a family from France in the past, I hope to again merge with the people of France by studing there in the fall of 2005. This educational path has led me to apply my learned skills in the development and provision of a vehicle necessary to attain french literacy. I believe that Le Français Facile! is such a vehicle for the French language.

My French editor is Jeanne Courcelles Wagner. She has a Bachelor of Education in French. Also a francophone, she taught high school French and is an expert when it comes to French grammar. She is the beautiful voice you hear in the songs and the voice of Chérie (among others).

Many parents feel that they need to add the memorizing of vocabulary to the curriculum. PLEASE do not do this. This is out of logical progression to how a child learns French. I assure you that there will be plenty of time to memorize vocabulary as you progress through Level I and in Level II.
