Description
In this course, you will have a complete view of what it is and what it takes to be a teacher. Being a teacher myself with an experience of nearly 30 years in France, I would like to share my love of this job with you exploring all its facets from the qualities and qualifications needed to the various issues at stake when you teach. It may seem intricate and complex but there are useful tips to help future teachers start a nice career in the best conditions. Those tips are valuable wherever you are because it is not a job you can do at random, guidance is necessary.
It is one of the most interesting job in the world because it brings something essential to humans: education. Everybody needs education everywhere and all over the world, whatever their age, nationality, race, religion...people are eager to learn that is why teachers will always exist and will always have work.
So do not hesitate to take the plunge! My goal is to give you relevant advice and useful guidance wherever you are in the world because there are universal principles about teaching and they need being explained thoroughly. That is literally what I wish to do here and I hope you will find what you expect.
Who this course is for:
- Teachers or students or anybody interested in education
Instructor
I have been a teacher of English at the French Ministry of Education for 27 years. In addition to everyday teaching at all levels - primary, secondary and university- I have published several school books for French publishers such as Nathan or Canopé. I have also been a tutor of junior French teachers and a reviewer at the national teacher entrance exam for several years.
Currently, I have taken to creating on-line courses in order to share my knowledge and get to know other ways of teaching. I am very much into digital learning and enjoy using on-line tools.
I hope that you'll appreciate my teaching methods!
See you soon!
Je suis professeure d'anglais à l'Education Nationale depuis maintenant 27 ans. J'enseigne actuellement dans un lycée mais j'ai aussi une expérience à l'école primaire et à l'université. J'ai publié plusieurs ouvrages scolaires aux niveaux primaire et secondaire. Je suis également formatrice académique et tutrice pour professeurs stagiaires depuis plusieurs années. Pour finir, je suis aussi membre de jury de concours nationaux.
Passionnée d'enseignement depuis toujours et désireuse de partager mes connaissances, je me suis mise à créer des cours en ligne en espérant que mes méthodes pédagogiques conviendront aux participants. Il me semble que les plate-formes d'e-learning sont devenues indispensables pour varier l'offre de formation et surtout qu'elles sont très utiles. J'apprécie leur vocation à toucher le monde entier, cela donne l'impression d'être utile à des tas de gens.
J'espère vraiment que vous apprécierez mes méthodes pédagogiques et je suis à l'écoute de vos remarques.
A bientôt...
