English Language Assistant

• Oct 2015 - May 2016

I worked in three primary schools (E.P.P. Lareton, E.P.P. Rambaud, E.P.P. Pasteur, Embrun) in the département des Hautes-Alpes. As Language Assistant, I aided teachers in the planning and direction of their English classes at levels maternelle (ages 2-5), CP (age 6), CE1/CE2 (ages 7-8), and CM1/CM2 (ages 9-10). All lesson plans focused on aural/verbal mastery of basic English vocabulary and sentence structure, and those at the higher level introduced reading comprehension and phonetic writing skills. I worked side-by-side with teachers on whole-class activities and, more frequently, worked independently with smaller groups at a time. As Language Assistant, I also served as a culture ambassador for the United States; each lesson plan typically introduced some facet of American culture. Show less
