Learning a new language has the power to transform a life, as well as help break down the barriers that seem to be re-emerging between nations, cultures, and people. In the UK, MFL teaching has always had to battle with the "everyone speaks English" argument, not to mention that, for so many, all that remains of their years learning a foreign language is "bitte, por favor, or s'il vous plait." But with teachers like Independent Thinking Associate Crista Hazell at the front of the class, things can be very different. Drawing on her many years of experience as an MFL teacher and head of department, Crista shares tips, techniques, and inspirational ideas geared to help teachers build confidence, increase enjoyment, and improve outcomes as they take their MFL teaching to a whole new level. Crista provides a range of strategies from how to hook students in the minute they enter the classroom to ensuring that the vocabulary sticks designed to help learners develop confidence, take risks, and enjoy the challenge that learning a new language brings. She also offers ideas and advice on how to make learning new vocabulary and grammar a great deal more effective and empowers teachers to open up the benefits and enjoyment of learning a language to all students, not just those in the top sets. Ultimately, however, her book sets out to help teachers create engaging, relevant, and memorable learning experiences in the MFL classroom and encourage their learners to become lifelong and passionate linguists.

For MFL teachers and heads of languages departments in primary schools, secondary schools, and beyond, Independent Thinking on MFL: How to make modern foreign language teaching exciting, inclusive, and relevant is a must-read. It provides valuable insights and practical strategies that will help educators create engaging, effective, and memorable learning experiences in the MFL classroom.
