Why Join AATF?…​
Welcome to the American Association of Teachers of French.
Straight from our national website, below are a few reasons why your membership and participation are an important part of promoting French language and learning in our region and in our country.
GET CONNECTED​
Meet other teachers and share ideas. Local chapter meetings, regional workshops, and the annual national convention give you the opportunity to learn from and share with your colleagues.
PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT​
Keep abreast of the latest trends in French literature, culture, and pedagogy. The AATF National Bulletin and the award-winning French Review are included in your membership dues. Read articles by your colleagues, and publish your own work in these widely disseminated periodicals.
Benefit from the work of the AATF Commissions, formed to give special attention to topics of concern to the French-teaching profession.
