Meet French Mentor Nadia Clark

Nadia Clark emigrated to the U.S. from northern France in 1981 and started teaching French in Prescott Valley and Prescott about six years ago. Initially, she taught French through Prescott Valley Parks and Recreation and private lessons. More recently she has been teaching evening classes in Yavapai College’s Community Education program. In fall 2011, she mentored  PC student Avery Young in the independent study format in a course called Intermediate French II. As a native speaker of French who is fluent in English as well, Nadia is well qualified to teach all levels of French language. She enjoys creating learning experiences tailored to each student and focuses on speaking and listening skills that help students use French in real conversations with French speakers. To learn more about Nadia and how to learn French, check out her blog. For more information about an IS in French, contact the Learning Commons Coordinator.
