Assistante maternelle
Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve wanted to know how to speak English, probably thanks to my parents who passed on to me their passion for travel. That’s why, after a year’s degree in foreign languages in Lyon, I decided to go and live in Australia as an au pair and stay for eight months. Since then, this desire for discovery and adventure has never left me.
After completing my BTS in International Commerce in the Paris region, where I’m originally from, I decided to continue my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in International Management and Marketing in Annecy. As I wasn’t really fulfilled in this field and was still looking for my way, I left to work in Prague for eight months.
On my return to Annecy, I worked as an extracurricular activity leader. That was the turning point for me: I finally knew what I wanted to do! To be with children, to help them grow and develop. After preparing for the competitive examination to become a school teacher for 6 months, I’m now looking to gain the experience I need to become a full-time teacher in the years to come.
The position of kindergarten assistant at EBiHS is a golden opportunity for me and fits in perfectly with my career plan. I’m delighted to be working as part of the team and to be able to put all my experience to good use in helping children to develop and flourish.
