Originally from Béarn, specifically Pau (in the Southwest of France), I have been in French Polynesia for a little over a year. With a scientific background (scientific baccalaureate and a bachelor's degree in general biology and earth sciences) and a master's degree in education, I taught for 7 years in mainland France, including 5 years in a sensitive area in the Paris region. It was during these years that I learned to diversify my teachings and evolve different pedagogical approaches. For me, the essential is to adapt as best as possible to the different audiences that may present themselves in our classrooms, keeping in mind that we need to listen to their requests and respond to their needs.
So, at the age of 30, I came to Tahiti to see different landscapes, open myself to other opportunities, and break the monotony that was looming on the mainland. After a year in the restaurant industry, I returned to my heart and training profession to join TIS school and embark on a new adventure in a unique and privileged environment.
