Hi, I’m Kirsten, and I’m the person behind The MFL Teacher — a positive online space created for MFL teachers in the UK and around the world.
I’ve been teaching modern languages (and Latin!) for over 20 years, and I’ve been lucky enough to take on a variety of roles along the way, including Head of Department and Specialist Leader in Education.
The MFL Teacher exists to make collaboration and professional growth easy (and actually enjoyable) — with a special focus on supporting new and training teachers, because nobody should have to figure it all out alone.
Here you’ll find high-quality resources and training for French, German, and Spanish teachers, alongside a supportive community that understands the realities of the job.
Teaching languages should feel inspiring — not isolating.
Let’s make it better, together.
Come and see what all the fuss is about!
Disclaimer: Although resources & CPD are available to buy individually, a subscription works out a lot cheaper!

Coming soon! 1-to-1 video calls (because sometimes you need more than general advice).
