Hear from a Practical Proficiency Network Member: ⬇️

Karine, French teacher 

 

 

To the World Language Teacher Trying to Figure Out CI on your own:

"Say buh-bye 👋  to overwhelm 

& hello 🤩 to  your step-by-step

proficiency action plan"

 

Transforming your class into a proficiency party

through comprehensible input 

 

Does NOT require alienating your colleagues or recreating your world language program from scratch

.....But building a class rich in CI without sentencing yourself to nights & weekends is no small feat.

The power of community + organized resources + a clear plan of ACTION that actually works with your teaching style will shave hours off your work week & reignite your teaching spark! 

Which type of proficiency teacher are you? 

1. You spend nights and weekends hunting down authentic texts + youtubing CI techniques..... and your kids are still giving you the silent treatment

 

2. Your family has dinner without you while you research picture talk techniques because you're a dept of 1 with no curriculum. But hell will freeze over before you watch your students take home yet another poor grade on a meaningless conjugation quiz. 

YOU DESERVE TO TEACH WHAT MATTERS IN A WAY THAT WORKS, AND STILL HAVE A LIFE.

Here's the secret that ACFTL won't tell you: Successfully maintaining 90% target language and many other CI-based tactics is something that even EXPERT TEACHERS have to work at every second. Jumping right off the bat into advanced and time-consuming methods without support is a recipe for  confusion, burnout, and needing the nighttime alarm code to your school so can stay past 7pm. It can sometimes even cause backlash with stakeholders and colleagues. 


And if you’re like most teachers I work with, you got into CI  because you want to actually TALK TO YOUR STUDENTS about stuff that matters...


...not spend all night planning tomorrow's lesson!


Well, the reality is this:


CURRENT research-based practice  that you can actually use in your real-life classroom is like sifting for a wearable work shirt (that fits you) at a thrift store.

Oh, it's out there, and it's HAWT.

But 1 shirt hidden in a warehouse full of knick-knacks means you'll be there. for. a. while. 

GOOGLING + PINTEREST + BLOGS DOES NOT  A LEAVE-ON-TIME CLASSROOM STRATEGY

Consulting multiple websites, social accounts, teaching resources, research articles, podcasts, and diving deep into the youtube archives....

JUST to figure out if you're actually doing this whole CI thing right...

is eating up time you don't have.

So, if you’re doing this:

Spending your evenings pinning CI blog posts, your morning commute listening to SLA & proficiency podcasts, and your  school breaks & summers attending conferences, then...

I LOVE CONFERENCES SO MUCH I MADE MY OWN...
...BUT WHAT ABOUT MONDAY? 

And I get it! I've been there! 

There's a reason I know that schools have a 7pm alarm.....

As soon as I saw how just a taste of CI transformed my disjointed classroom  into a community, I was hooked.

used to spend every extra second attending trainings, following other teacher experts online, reading SLA research, and saving up for costly conferences. 

Only a fraction of what I learned actually made sense for how much little extra time and training I had.

Not to mention the endless struggle of finding resources. 

Can you relate? 

After I left the classroom, I knew I wasn't alone. Teachers like you are still struggling with being told that proficiency is best practice (and you should start immediately), even though it's uncommon, unfamiliar, hard to adapt, and resources are hard-to-find at best. 

For this exact reason, I went on to create a conference of my own rooted in real-life, practical ideas.  It's for teachers like you that understand the power of teacher community + practical ideas to make CI the norm that it should be.  

But even though teachers love the conference, it's only 3 days and can't support you when you have questions. 

Through my years of curriculum consulting and working with teachers, I've noticed that there's only one difference between those who struggle to maintain a proficiency class and those who don't: 

THEY HAVE A PLAN FOR THE LONG GAME. 

But this is all going to change! 

Together, if you wish to be a part of this new vision for making CI the norm, YOU have the opportunity to be the first in a completely unique style of accessible proficiency training. 

 through...

ongoing community support and personalized resources + training to give you a PRACTICAL and ACTIONABLE Proficiency Strategy!

PICTURE THIS: all of your CI teaching tools + a supportive community all in one place so that you can get students speaking faster +

stop working weekends. 

EVER FEEL LIKE YOU'RE TRYING TO BUILD THE PLANE WHILE FLYING IT?

We all know that proficiency works and it's what organizations like ACFTL ask of us.

But since proficiency is not (yet) the norm, we're living in this weird in-between zone (kinda like The Upside Down)  where you only have these limiting options:  

1. have  a strict curriculum that you can't adapt to fit your needs

2. a few awesome teaching methods, but with a catch... they require years of training + practice (oh, and a curriculum too)

3. make it up and gather some rag-tag resources as you go - good luck! 

There has to be another way than this. 

You deserve to be able to teach what matters in what you believe to be the most effective way, and STILL have a life!

You shouldn't have to constantly adapt and figure this all out yourself. 

YOU DESERVE TO TEACH WHAT MATTERS IN A WAY THAT WORKS, AND STILL HAVE A LIFE. 

The dream of creating a one-stop shop for all your CI teaching needs was born from several teacher interviews - teachers just like you! 

Just like you, they work crazy hard every day to find and create fun lessons for students. They're bogged down and overloaded with unreasonable expectations and COVID protocols. 

Even though they are #beyondexhausted, they still dedicate extra hours outside of school to try and incorporate and much CI as they can pull off. 

But they're not seeing results, and it's getting frustrating. 

They feel isolated, with no one to ask questions and nothing but  overwhelmingly long FB threads to sift through for answers. 

 

 

Do you ever wonder how all these CI teachers seem to get such magical results and feel joyful all the time, when it's so freaking hard for you just to get your class to answer? 

The teachers you admire have come SO far in their journeys and deserve to be emulated for the incredible things they do in their classes. 

What we often forget as outsiders though is that we aren't seeing the beginning of their stories! 

Never compare YOUR BEGINNING to someone else's MIDDLE. 

What keeps these powerhouse teachers sane is a focused, practical approach + finding a supportive community. 

 Which means one powerful thing for you: 

The only 2 things between going home at 7 with a ton of doubt  &

teaching a class 90% in the TL and leaving at 4  is strategy + support.  

 

I've worked with over 40 expert CI presenters in my conference, and the truth is that they're not that different from you. Something else that master teachers practice is finding a personalized  approach that works for them. 

They try a few methods, find what works for them, and then refine it until expert level. 

One of the biggest time sucks for talented teachers is trying to learn advanced methods on their own before mastering the foundations or building a strategy. 

Of course the advanced methods are the goal-- but that's not where you start.

BUT I GET IT!

It's much easier said than done to find a balance, find community, and create a strategy when you're literally just trying to make it through 4th block without forgetting your first name. 

 You shouldn't have to choose between what's accepted as best practice & whether you can spend quality time with your family.

There's a better approach waiting for you! 

INTRODUCING...

Resources, Live & On-Demand Training,

and CI Teacher Community...
all in one place

“I am so glad I signed up for this!"

I teacher Honors Spanish II and regular Spanish IV. We are in a hybrid model - students alternate every other day in-person/remote learning. (2020) I am in a high school in Rockton, IL. 

(My favorite part of Practical Proficiency is) EVERYTHING. Her videos and lessons are so positive and FULL of amazing resources.

She responds to my emails with videos of her talking to me - something that I will do if we go fully remote. I have already learned SO much. I also love her focus on self-care. That has been a special challenge this year.

FROM THIS:

What was your biggest challenge prior to Practical Proficiency? 
 
"Self-care. Curating a curriculum for a regular high school course using a college text with limited resources and no teachers to collaborate with."
 
What were some of the emotions you felt before the school year started? 
 
"I was trying (and still am) to be positive. To focus on what I can control. But it is so unbelievably overwhelming. I have never been this stressed in my entire life."

TO THIS:

What changed for you after starting Practical Proficiency
 
"I watch (and rewatch) at lunch, especially the time saving tips and self-care modules. She helps me feel more grounded."
 
Share with me your results:  
 
"When I go back to the modules and continue the work, I feel that spark that I usually do not lose so early in the year. I remember why I do what I do. I am reminded to treat myself with the grace and kindness I extend to my students and colleagues. I am not finished yet, but I already have PAGES of notes. This course is also helping me with my thesis for my MA in Spanish. She has shared resources and lent a hand with such a gracious spirit. I am so glad I signed up for this!"

It’s time to end the era of scattered, frantic internet searching for what should be COMMONLY AVAILABLE, easy-to-find, research-based best practices. 

 

“I have seen a lot of offers out there, but you are by far the most personal... The wealth of help and information is well worth the money. Thank you, Devon!”

What hesitations did you have about joining the PP Network?

“Money and whether I would have the time to properly use it."

What changes have you noticed in your classroom? In your teaching practice? In your work hours?

"I have only been a member for a couple of months and am just beginning this journey. I have felt so alone (no co-workers, no curriculum) and am new to teaching a language, so talking with you one-on-one has been extremely helpful. Thank you for encouraging me, talking me off the cliff :) and guiding me to some very valuable resources.

It has helped with my stress, which helps me bring more fun into my classroom."

What specific feature do you like the best?

"The treasure chest and the one-on-ones (zoom calls). I also just learned about the unit templates, which I think will be super helpful! One more thing....your focus on self-care is such an important aspect of teaching that many (most?) of us neglect in this crazy profession."

Would you recommend joining the PP Network to others? Why or why not?

"Absolutely! I have seen a lot of offers out there, but you are by far the most personal. You offer valuable resources and workshops, office hours, and so much I haven't had the time to dive into yet. The wealth of help and information is well worth the money. Thank you, Devon!”

Stacey,
from elementary teacher to 1st year French teacher 

 

What makes this program unique is that I'M NOT A HIGHLY TRAINED  CI METHODS PROFESSIONAL. 

you may be wondering why I  admit that....

I found a way to get real results that had admins talking, got me a job as a state curriculum creator, and had the GenEd teachers whispering about how much French my kids spoke in the hallway. 

And my last year teaching, I went home on time. every day.

 This program works because it's designed for regular teachers like you.  - no intense training required. -  Just a few simple, practical shifts at a time. On a schedule that brings you joy and gets results! 


The modules were awesome, I could listen to them wherever and whenever I wanted to.

Truly on demand professional development.

(After Practical Proficiency), I felt more solidarity having a cohort of teachers relating that they were experiencing the same things.

This will help you implement all of the ideas you always meant to try but never had the time, or never had anyone to ask technical questions to.

-Kristen, Spanish teacher

Live PLC Calls to Collaborate with other CI Teachers 

You no longer have to solve problems alone.  

 

This program was created through several teacher interviews. You know what every single teacher had in common?

They couldn't remember the last time they could actually talk to someone about their class. 

Not anymore!

Meet monthly with others who teach the same way as you and have the same goals in a live call. 

Yes (I recommend it)! PP Network has met my needs exactly. The discussions with other educators have provided moral support and fantastic ideas.

- Christy Gusse, French and English teacher, Network member

  

"I finally understand what it means to teach towards proficiency."

 

What hesitations did you have about joining the PP Network?

"There are several PLCs offered throughout the U.S.  I had decide which would help me grow the most.

 

What changes have you noticed in your classroom? In your teaching practice? In your work hours?

I finally understand what it means to teach towards proficiency.  

There are many activities available to try.  It's actually overwhelming sifting through how to teach a language.  

Since joining, I feel like my teaching practice has significantly improved.

It has become more focused as I have cut out many wonderful activities and methods that weren't helping my students grow in proficiency.  

I'm still working more than I would like, but my teaching is becoming more sustainable.

 

What specific feature do you like the best?

The Practical Proficiency course has helped me the most.  

It has helped me to identify and clarify excellent and sustainable classroom practices.

 

Would you recommend joining the PP Network to others? Why or why not?

I would recommend the PP Network.  I am a department of one, so I don't really have anyone to collaborate with. 

For several years now, I have been looking for a PLC that could help me grow as a language educator.  

The PP Network is becoming my PLC.  Thank you."

See what other Practical Proficiency Course students are saying...


Tricia, 15 years teaching experience, Practical Proficiency student

“I teach French 2, 3, and AP at a large, suburban, public school. I was ready to make change to my teaching style after 15 years of teaching. I was researching comprehensible input and knew that I wanted to try it, but needed a push and guidance to get started. 

“I love Devon's energy, enthusiasm, positivity, and realness. 

I appreciate that it is a program that is open to possibilities and not a program that only sees one way of teaching to be the right way. 

While giving you plenty of information and reasoning, you still feel like you can do teaching in your style, but with improvements.” 

 

Before Practical Proficiency, what was your biggest challenge?

“Explaining to colleagues and students why proficiency is important and needed in the world language classroom. Now, I feel like I have the research-based knowledge to support this method of teaching.”

(Before Practical Proficiency) I was stressed and anxious, worried about making a change to a new style of teaching in a pandemic. 

I really had to convince myself not to stay with my vocabulary lesson followed by a grammar lesson style of teaching. 

After Practical Proficiency

“While there is work to do at the start of being more proficiency based, I am starting to see how it really can cut down on planning time and help the students learn the language rather than learning about the language. 

Several students have already stated that they like this method better.

The students were excited to hear that they would be graded on their ability and improvement rather than memorized verb conjugations and having everything spelled correctly.

We had a lot of fun in class with special person interviews.

Overall, teaching classes and trying for 90% of target language really becomes fun when you see your students understanding what is going on without English.”

What would you say to someone on the fence about joining Practical Proficiency?

It is a great value and will change your teaching for the better, better for you and your students.

 If you have lost it, it will help you find enthusiasm in your teaching again.”

OK. So what's the investment?

Consider your summer training plans, friend. Is your school planning to hire a consultant?

$1500 minimum for one day.

Attending a CI conference? Most are at least $250, usually $300+, not to mention your $300-400 plane ticket if you need to travel.

But what about virtual conferences and workshops? The cheapest one I've seen this summer (outside my own) is $107 for a full day's program. My own conference ticket is $60 minimum this year. 

 Even if you're planning to attend even just a one hour training via zoom this summer, the bare minimum industry standard price is $30-35.

In Practical Proficiency Network, you can get access to an ENTIRE proficiency course plus 1-on-1 instructional coaching for less than that?!?

This is hands-down the most affordable PD for the amount of 1-on-1 coaching, live calls, access to custom curriculum, conferences, and community.

 (because I know what it's like to ask for money from admin when most of your students can't afford lunch). 

You're saving money on the $40 value of new RESOURCES ALONE. 

Not to mention the ENTIRE library you get access to - it would take over $900 to get everything just in the Resource Library!

A full month of content worth over $2228 for less than the price of a 3-hour workshop? 

Yes please! 

 

There's Over $2,000 worth of resources and trainings waiting for you. 

A La Libre PD session for your school costs $400 per hour. Even a 1-on-1 hour-long consulting session with me costs $95 - you get that and MORE for a fraction of the investment by becoming a member in the Practical Proficiency Network!

As a former teacher, I understand how much PD adds up. That's why it's the very best value I can offer, with easy financial support options (see below) from your school. 

This program is invite-only to focus on current members and membership investment will increase in the future. 

This program works for 100+  teachers because it's designed for regular teachers like you.  - no intense instructional training required. -  Just a few simple, practical shifts at a time. 

On a schedule that brings you joy and gets results! 

“Thank you for everything Devon! I doubted myself so much this school year! You helped me with ideas, activities, and rubrics for assessments.  I appreciate everything you have done to create a forum for teachers like me.  I love your zoom sessions and always listen to the replays if I can't make it.  Having Kajabi on my phone is awesome!  Thanks for setting that up! I have let my Supervisor know it is well worth it and hopefully one of our Spanish teachers will join soon! ”

Let's End Out-of-Pocket PD Together.  

If you think that connecting regularly with other dedicated teachers is as valuable as I do (and hate spending hours hunting down authentic texts), then you need in on the Practical Proficiency Network Membership.

But here's the catch: I'm fully committed to PD that YOU DON'T PAY FOR out of pocket.

Which means that you have to do some brave decision-making.

Here's a letter to ask your admin to submit a purchase order or complete your enrollment. Please note that this is a template, please customize for your own language and needs.

This is the same template I used to request things of my admin, and many times the answer was yes! 

many of our current annual members used this to get admin support for their learning. 

Option 2 is once you enroll, you can submit a one-step easy request for a reimbursement receipt to turn in.
