The American Association of Teachers of French (AATF) is the largest national association of French teachers in the world with nearly 10,000 members. Our members are French teachers at all levels and include approximately 3/4 secondary teachers and 1/4 post-secondary. We also have a growing number of French teachers in immersion settings and in the elementary grades. National French Week, Le Grand Concours, La Societe Honoraire de Francais, AATF Exemplary Programs, Les Jeunes Amis du Francais are among our most important initiatives along with our Annual Convention, our publications, and scholarships and grant programs, and awards. AATF produces two well-known publications--the French Review, a scholarly journal of French studies now entering its 90th volume and known the world over, and the National Bulletin, now in its 42nd year, a newsletter devoted to the teaching and promotion of French and Francophone studies. As a professional association we seek to address the concerns of our members which include: promoting the study of languages in general and French in particular; facilitating the implementation of national and state standards in the classroom; improving the training of French teachers by encouraging minimum levels of language and cultural proficiency, and exposure to the French-speaking world through study abroad opportunities; creating opportunities and finding resources for practicing teachers to update their skills and improve their teaching; encouraging the use of new technologies in the teaching of French and actively developing materials to support this use.
