Summary

Compassionate, creative, and effective educator with substantial experience in classroom administration, professional development, and project planning. With a deep passion for the French language, I have pursued it fervently to the highest level, demonstrating that it offers diverse opportunities rather than the perceived limitations common in my region. I bring a diverse background in various educational settings, excelling as a student-centric instructor, academic facilitator, and motivational coach. Adept at working independently or as part of a teaching team, I am skilled in utilizing both classroom and online technologies to enhance the learning experience.
