About Us

Bienvenue sur le site de l’AATF du Texas Central !

The American Association of Teachers of French was founded in 1927 to support the work of French teachers at all levels from elementary school to graduate schools and provide resources to promote and sustain the study of French. With nearly 10,000 members and 76 chapters across the US, AATF is the largest national association of French teachers in the world.

The AATF is the only professional association devoted exclusively to the needs of French teachers at all levels. The mission of the AATF is to advance the study of the French language and French-speaking literatures and cultures both in schools and in the general public. Membership is open to anyone interested in the teaching of French who is over the age of 18. Welcome to the Central Texas Chapter of the AATF!

We meet once per semester for continuing professional development and to strengthen collegial ties between our different educational institutions, from secondary school through post-graduate level.
