Customer first
With over 30 years experience teaching MFL, I understand the pressure and challenges MFL teachers face. Increasing expectations, perpetually changing curricula and a myriad of competing demands makes quality student interactions a daily challenge.
Not only do Sanako products completely transform the MFL student experience, they enable teachers to interact with and assess students on an individual basis. The efficiency gains experienced by teachers are unquestioned, the learning experience unparalleled.
My passion
Throughout my career I have shared my passion for languages and the exciting and diverse opportunities that learning a language can provide. I am therefore thrilled to be in a position where I can offer such game-changing technology products to education establishments across the UK.
