Barbara Allen - Lingua Forme
I always liked French at school and after studying History at A level I realised that I'd also like to study Russian so I did a degree in Modern Languages and Political Studies, studying French and Russian. After university I worked in industry for a while and studied part time, doing an MA in French Area Studies which led to me living in France for a few years. I worked at the University of Metz and taught business English. On my return to the UK I realised that I just loved teaching so I did a teaching qualification which qualified me to teach post 14 year olds - and I've never looked back. Initially I started teaching for some local councils and then I decided to work for myself and started my own business. I love teaching and I now teach 7 classes to around 70 learners. My main interests are running and darts (doing the former and watching the latter!).
