Most parents want results and I get that. But sometimes along the way. the students realize it isn’t for them or sometimes they need to learn it from a different perspective. There is a huge stigma with French, especially in the intermediate/senior division. However, I am so thankful I stuck with it because it opens up so many opportunities especially in Canada.

When I was in the Concurrent Education Program I/S (intermediate/secondary ) at the University of Toronto, I was placed in a CO-OP position at Lester B. Pearson Elementary school. I had to help and assist the 2nd grade class which was in the primary division (completely out of my element). The teacher I was working under went on stress leave and the school was having a difficult time finding a permanent French substitute teacher. So we went back and forth every week between substitutes, most of which only spoke English, and since I was the only one consistently there I had to make sure that the grade 2 class followed the curriculum due to the language barrier and inconsistencies. It was a great learning experience, and taught me how to work diligently under overwhelming pressure.

But the real lesson wasn’t just for the students but for me as well. Everyone learned differently, some were auditory some were kinestheric others were visual or reading/writing learners. That is what I bring to the table. It’s not just about results. Grades are definitely important but one factor often overlooked is what they are passionate about. If they are forced to learn something they hate then it will cause them to spiral in their post-secondary studies and that is when it becomes a problem. That is when youth start becoming more self-aware and begin grasping who they are. Tuition is expensive and a career path change half-way through just puts students into more debt. So with all those variables in mind, I’ll work together with you and them to help them find their niche and set them on the right path!
