Why did you choose to become a teacher ?

I believe that teaching is one of the most important professions ; transforming the lives of their students in their future careers.

What interests you most in your job ?

All my students are different, so I adapt to each of them individually. This is why teaching is a passion for me.

How did you adapt your methods during the pandemic ?

It took a while for me to adapt my lessons online. It is a completely different way of teaching; which has both advantages, and disadvantages.

What are your passions, your hobbies ?

I love sport ; so the gyms being closed has been difficult for me. I also am interested in anything creative : art, music, theatre…
