My education at the ENS provided me with a solid foundation that allowed me to approach my roles in both secondary and higher education with confidence.
I was admitted to the ENS in Cachan based on my application in 2011. I currently teach in preparatory classes (general economics and business on the one hand, and science on the other) at the Lycée Charles de Gaulle and the Lycée Malherbe in Caen.
Above all, the ENS allowed me to round out my training as an English teacher: in addition to my academic coursework, I had the opportunity to spend a year in the United Kingdom as a French lecturer at a British university, which taught me a great deal. I also benefited from high-quality preparation for the agrégation at the ENS.
My time at the ENS provided excellent training in teaching English to students majoring in other disciplines. It laid a solid foundation that allowed me to confidently take on my teaching roles in both secondary and higher education. The English department at the ENS also gave me valuable initial teaching experience before I joined the French National Education System, as I had the opportunity to teach English for a year in the chemistry and humanities and social sciences departments.
Finally, at the ENS, I met people who have proven to be a great asset, both in my professional and personal life.
