FRENCH TEACHING ASSISTANT - 2017 - SEYCHELLES

My mission as French Teaching Assistant at the International School Seychelles was to provide support to Primary and Secondary French Teachers.

In details, my missions were:

- reinforcing class rules and supervision

- supervising small working groups (struggling or bilingual students)

- creation of pedagogic content and evaluations

- sharing marking

- supervising the French club

The International School Seychelles offered me the opportunity to go further.

With the support and trust of my colleagues, I was able to develop e-learning (Yacapaca, an e-learning platform and Google Classroom), to create educative content (exercises, revision booklets and project) and to organise a visit at the Alliance française des Seychelles.

This experience was very enriching by its variety. I started studying Teaching French as a Foreign Language in 2016 in order to prepare the DAEFLE (Teaching French as a Foreign Language Alliance Française Diploma). I have been more in contact with the FLE approach in line with the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages: Learning, Teaching, Assessment. The International School Seychelles is teaching French as a Foreign Language following the English curriculum. Its curriculum and objectives are different from those of the Alliance Française. Moreover, the extensive range of levels within a class (from non-English speaking French beginner to bilingual students) and the on-going arrival of new students are great challenges.

FRENCH TEACHER - 2017 - SEYCHELLES

I had the opportunity to teach French as a Foreign Language for adults at the Alliance française des Seychelles (level beginner/intermediate A2). This experience was very enriching as I was able to go though FLE methods in line with CFRL and using the Alliance française manuals (Alter Ego +).
