What LANGUAGE ANGELS USERS SAY

Case Study & Testimonials

I found Language Angels almost by mistake when researching the availability of a French teaching resource for the non-specialist teacher and accessed the free six week trial. My colleague and I reviewed the program and , on comparing it with many others we had sourced, decided that this was the one for us. It was reassuring to be able to ask any questions of Paolo and Francesca ( and I did... often ) concerning the suitability for the individual needs of the school and the answers were always delivered promptly and professionally. Language Angels has now been in use for only five weeks in Year 3-6 and yet the teachers have embraced it eagerly and the feedback so far has been nothing other than positive in relation to the planning and the resources and I have found the webinars extremely useful and reassuring. I have no doubt that the children will make progress and (perhaps even more important dare I say) will love their learning of a foreign language.

Middleton Primary School have subscribed now for four years to Language Angels and pupils and teachers love it. Language Angels is a great website with a well-organised content following the KS1 and KS2 curriculum and there's an excellent range of interactive activities and games. Worksheets are always straight to the point and child friendly. Language Angels is also offering all four skills and teaching stages which MFL teachers need to teach. I would like to take this opportunity to thank your team for your fantastic work and your availability when we needed some help.

As a primary school French teacher, I was so pleased to find the Language Angels site during lockdown. I was struggling to find a resource (accessible to children) where they could hear French correctly modelled and still continue to progress through the carefully planned and structured lessons. As a school, we are now subscribing to the Language Angels online scheme of work and I am able to incorporate it into French lessons, which I plan for other year group bubbles. (Previously, I taught all classes throughout KS2). The class teachers are reporting back very positively and I feel it is also building their confidence to deliver French themselves to their classes. Language Angels is a highly flexible scheme, with some alternative units and differentiated worksheets (where needed.) There are songs and also a games section. The attractive end of unit assessment sheets make it far easier to fulfil the individual key skills progression monitoring. This, I feel, will be a major reason for our school to continue subscribing (even when the current Covid situation improves.) Children and staff love the clarity of the lessons and the team at Language Angels has been incredibly supportive, replying quickly by email to answer any of my technology questions!

As a teacher, I’ve found the Language Angels site easy to follow. The lessons are well organised, with a range of useful sound and video clips for the children to practice as a class. The worksheets are well differentiated and there is a big enough range of lessons to be able to pick and choose. I also like the fact that the lessons explicitly cover the different skills of speaking, reading, listening and writing.

I am the MFL coordinator for my Primary school and a non-language teacher. When I was given the role as coordinator I felt really overwhelmed as I had a big task on my hands to ensure that the school has a scheme fit for purpose. Language Angels has been absolutely fantastic with the high quality support, resources and CPD training. They have created a bespoke progression plan for my school. If I have had any queries the quick response has been very impressive.

It has been such a relief to discover Language Angels and being able to subscribe after doing the 6-week trial. So many resources available and the free CPD sessions have been incredibly helpful to become a more confident subject leader. Thanks again!

I am a non-language specialist teacher in a mixed year group primary school. Having been given the role of Language Coordinator I was considerably out of my depth and the school decided to buy into Language Angels to support myself and other class teachers in delivering high quality French lessons. I attended a webinar on supporting subject coordinators and found it extremely useful and informative. Language Angels have also helped me by developing a bespoke progression plan for my school involving catch-up lessons and a two year rolling program for each KS2 teacher. They have responded very quickly to any queries and are personable and supportive.

Teaching languages that you aren’t comfortable with becomes easy and fun with this fantastic language scheme! It has everything you need to teach and assess as well as a variety of games for the pupils to consolidate learning! Highly recommended!

Language Angels is a fantastic, well planned and resourced site that has allowed non-specialist MFL leaders and teachers to deliver exciting French lessons to pupils at Old Park Primary. The sound PowerPoints have proved invaluable for ensuring correct pronunciation of tricky vocabulary and the pupils enjoy the online games. We would recommend this programme to other schools and other non-specialist leaders. Language Angels are always an email away if difficulties with delivery or technical problems with the site occur.
