About the store
Welcome to my Teachers Pay Teachers store! I'm a dedicated and passionate educator based in Toronto, with 20 years of experience in teaching and a deep commitment to supporting fellow teachers. My specialisation lies in French as a Second Language (FSL) and STEM, and I offer a wide range of products aimed at junior and intermediate students.
Throughout my career, I've had the pleasure of teaching in all elementary French programs in Ontario, gaining extensive experience and insight into the unique challenges and rewards of teaching FSL. To be honest, my journey into educational resource creation began out of necessity—constantly developing my own materials to meet the needs of my students. This evolved into a true passion for creating, engaging teaching resources.
In addition to my classroom experience, I hold a Diploma in Educational Technology and have a keen interest in technology in relation to education. Over the past four years, I've been lucky enough to collaborate with the University of Toronto to provide professional development for teachers, focusing on the new Ontario Math and Science Coding curriculums. This has further helped me understand the needs of teachers and I hope has helped me to create some innovative materials.
My store features a variety of resources in both French and English, designed to make teaching easier and more enjoyable. Knowing how challenging the teaching profession can be, especially in today's fast-paced educational environment, my goal is to provide resources that support and inspire other educators.
Thank you for visiting my store. I hope my materials can bring a little extra joy and effectiveness to your teaching!
