Hi! Iām Kate Clifton aka Kate Languages
................
I'm an ex-secondary school MFL teacher, who left the classroom in 2017 to set off on my own adventure. I started with some private tuition, then branched out into writing teaching resources and running online CPD for MFL teachers.
I studied French and German at university and have an A Level in Spanish. I taught French, German and Spanish for around 10 years, during which time I also completed an MA in Applied Linguistics, and have been helpingĀ MFL teachers save time and simplify their lesson planning since 2017.
In recent years, I have been commissioned by the BBC to write content for BBC Bitesize French (GCSE and Key Stage 3) and Celebrity Supply Teacher with Vick Hope.
I am a mum of one, wife (also of one!) and avid reader, amateur cook and (even more amateur) gardener. When Iām not sitting at my computer, youāll generally find me outside with my family, enjoying some fresh air and a nice bit of nature!
Have you listened to the Kate Languages Podcast?
................
FromĀ 2021-2025, I had my own podcast, where I talked about everything to do with teaching languages, teacher wellbeing, and life outside the MFL teaching classroom. I also interviewed some amazing fellow educators, such as Joe Dale, Helen Myers and Crista Hazell.
You can listen to the Kate Languages Podcast wherever you usually get your podcasts, including Apple, Spotify and Amazon.
