Gifts for French Teachers – My Favorite Ideas!

French Teacher Gift Ideas

Are you looking for a unique gift idea for a French teacher? Foreign language teachers might like gifts having to do with their country’s culture or cuisine. I know that my teacher always wore shirts from her country, talked about places she’s been, and decorated her classroom with all things French. I’ve tried to include a variety of gift ideas on this page. These gifts may be appropriate gifts for Graduation, end-of-the-year, Christmas, birthday, etc. My ideas include jewelry, t-shirts, books, Paris souvenirs etc. Hopefully you’ll find that one-of-a-kind thing that she or he will love!

Cookbook of Authentic French Recipes – This has over 90 reviews, and over a 4.5 star rating!  French teachers often enjoy French cuisine as well. They may even cook something to share with the class. There are many French cookbooks to choose from. This one I’ve chosen because of the authentic recipes and positive reviews.

Travel to France with Rudy Maxa – Travel Documentary DVD Gift Idea
