Bonjour,
This is my fifth year teaching at Cedar Valley Middle School. I am teaching
French IA/IB and Exploratory Languages this year. I love to learn
languages and I hope to convey my passion for languages to all my students
as well!
I was born in Vietnam, grew up in Paris, France, and also lived in Alberta,
Canada, where I taught French, social studies, math, computer science and
health at the middle and high school levels. I also worked as a curriculum
specialist and online course writer for educational agencies. In my spare
time, I am a freelance French linguist and cultural consultant for
international translation companies.
I completed a B.A. in Political Science from the University of Calgary, a
B.Ed. in French Immersion Education from the University of Alberta and a
M.Ed. in Curriculum and Instruction from the University of Toronto.
I was honored to be named Teacher of the Year 2010-2011 at Cedar Valley
Middle School. It meant a lot to me, because I could not ask for a better
place to teach. My training includes AP French (Advanced Placement) from
the AP Summer Institute at Rice University, foreign language seminars by AATF
(American Association of Teachers of French) and TFLA (Texas Foreign Language
Association). I am also the LOTE (Languages Other Than English) Department
Chair for the school and on the District LOTE Leadership Team.
Our family has lived in Round Rock since 2001. My husband and I have three
children: a daughter in 12th Grade at Westwood High School, a son in 9th
Grade at Round Rock High School and a daughter in 7th Grade at Cedar Valley
Middle School. Our family loves to travel all around the world, especially to
Canada, Europe and Kenya to visit our relatives. Count Hawaii as one of my
favorite places too!
Thank you for visiting my website! I look forward to meeting my new students
and seeing my returning students. We're going to have a great year in French
and Exploratory Languages!
Au revoir! Adios! Auf Wiedersehen!
