Professional Biography:
I have lived in France and Denmark. I have always been working with children since I was 16 years old (baby-sitting, activity leader, teaching French etc.). I first came to Denmark for an Erasmus program during my bachelor in Economics. I literally fell in love with Copenhagen! Thus, when I had to choose an internship abroad for my master degree, I decided to look for a school in Copenhagen. I found VIS and the school accepted me as an intern, then a a vikar, then as maternity cover, and finally as a teacher.
What excites you about VIS:
I love the school and the fact that it is small and cozy. Everybody knows perfectly all the kids, their needs etc. and the other way around. VIS is a charming school where there is always something going on, as it is building up!
Your Top Book Recommendation for kids:
My top book pick is The Gruffalo by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler. I like the illustrations and the way the little mouse manages to trick all the animals that would be its predators
