Bienvenue aux pages de Mme Christolini!

Do you know the origin of the word "rain"?  Did you know that approximately 33% of words in the English language are French in origin?*  Do you know why?  Languages and culture are fascinating, and learning about them makes us so much smarter about our own language and culture.  We are going to have an amazing time learning French this year.  I look forward to sharing my passion for the French language and francophone cultures with you, and working with you to help you achieve your personal best.
