French Language Teaching Assistant

I grew up in Franche-Comté, in eastern France, near Switzerland. I’ve lived in France all my life and have always been eager to explore the world, discover new cultures, and meet new people. 

That’s the main reason I decided to study English civilization, linguistics, and literature for my bachelor’s degree at the University of Burgundy in Dijon. Afterward, I began a master’s degree in English applied to social media monitoring and data analysis, and I still have one more year to go before I graduate. 

Working at Linfield as a French teaching assistant is a wonderful opportunity for me, as I will be able to share my language and culture while also continuing to learn about yours.

And having grown up in wine regions, I’m truly excited to carry on that connection here at Linfield and in Oregon.
