I am relearning German and Spanish, languages I learned in high school and college. I have enrolled in first semester French in the fall at the local community college. I have always wanted to learn French.

I'm a volunteer ESL teacher at my church.
I'm studying French at the Alliance Francaise.
I'm hoping I can find time to start taking Russian classes again.
