Working in a multicultural environment with students from all over the world. It’s fun to watch their enthusiasm when they arrive here and see how their language skills progress throughout their stay. It’s a motivation for me to be part of their experience.
Activities when not working at ILSC
I am an amateur artist and enjoy painting and taking photographs. I especially like abstract art. Montreal has many cultural venues and there is always an opening to attend or a new exhibition to visit.
Favourite Montreal attraction
I like my neighborhood very much. ‘Le Plateau’ is a vast area at the bottom of Mont Royal where you will find a multitude of bars, cafes and restaurants. A nice mix of bohemian and trendy. Plus, if you like nature, it is very close to Mount Royal and has other nice parks. |

It is amazing to see how our students not only improve their French but also grow as people. Being in contact with people from all around the world is so beneficial for them and it is great to see how international friendships are made. I really enjoy talking to the students, not only for counseling, but also to get to know them.
In addition, I like creating new material for teachers and helping them during little creativity crises!
