Having benefitted from a number of CPD webinars over the course of a year, when it came to reviewing our French scheme of work, it seemed logical to subscribe to Language Angels. My non-specialist colleagues find the website easy to use and engaging for them and their classes.  In addition, they have access to first rate CPD in order to develop their language teaching practice.  Money well spent, I feel.

As a school, we very much enjoy using Language Angels. The teaching staff particularly like the sound files with a native French speaker. The lessons are engaging and there is a good variety of associated worksheets. Recapping vocabulary from previous learning at the start of the lessons is invaluable as preparation for new learning. The children enjoy the songs at the start of the lessons. This is also a good way of introducing the vocabulary for the unit as the children can experience deciphering unknown vocabulary in an informal way. Language Angels provide plenty of supporting material for subject leaders and for teaching staff. When I have made enquiries they are quick to respond. The webinars they hold are informative and recordings are sent out which allows you to time catch up or revisit the webinar at leisure. We highly recommend Language Angels.

Whilst we have only been using Language Angels for just over a year, it is safe to say the platform has not only completely transformed our children's experience of learning an additional language but has also supported our teachers in feeling more confident in delivering engaging and interactive French lessons to our pupils. Each unit offers a huge variety of high-quality resources, whether it be differentiated worksheets, exciting songs, supportive vocabulary maps and interactive presentations. We cannot thank Paolo and the Language Angels team enough for creating such a wonderful platform and supporting our school in planning a curriculum which has not only ignited a passion and interest in learning an additional language amongst our pupils but also ensures that the children are progressing in their learning in line with the National Curriculum.

As a language lead it is essential that all staff teaching Spanish (the majority having no previous language knowledge themselves) have the resources, lesson plans, audio etc. to deliver Spanish lessons confidently whilst ensuring progression. This has most certainly been the case since using the scheme. Pupil and staff voice has improved drastically. Children look forward to their Spanish lessons and progression is clearly seen across units. Assessment results have been fantastic with lower ability and SEN children thriving. More hands are up in Spanish lessons than ever before and it has given our lower ability and SEN children the chance to really shine in a subject they might not have before. Support received from staff at Language Angels has been brilliant and myself and other staff would highly recommend the scheme.

I have been teaching Spanish in a Primary school for the past 6 months and absolutely cannot praise Language Angels enough.  I made the transition from teaching MFL in Secondary Schools for 25 years and although I am confident in my subject knowledge, it would have been really challenging and time consuming to resource and pitch material to the different age groups without the help of Language Angels. I teach Spanish from Nursery age through to Year 6 and have found the progression of activities from nursery rhymes to hobbies and topics, such as, the planets and habitats which link in with the National Curriculum, in Years 5 and 6 to be tremendous. I have attended 3 free CPD training sessions online provided by Language Angels which have been very helpful when planning a curriculum folder and to network with other primary MFL teachers. Whenever I have a query, a member of the Language Angels will message back that same day and also take into consideration any suggestions I have regarding providing a wider variety of languages to Yr 6 to aid the transition to secondary learning. All in all, if you are teaching a language in primary school, it would be like winning the lottery and not cashing in the ticket if you taught without the resources Language Angels provide. The children love the songs, interactive games and worksheets provided. Make languages fun with Language Angels.
