Marie-Claire Gendron
Summary
Currently in my final year of a Bachelor of Education at Western University (Althouse) and working as an OT for Conseil scolaire catholique Providence, I am seeking additional occasional teaching opportunities to further develop my classroom experience. Passionate about pedagogy, I aim to apply my skills in French and physical education to support student growth and well-being. My experience as a teaching assistant, tutor, and research assistant, as well as my practicum placements, have allowed me to work effectively with learners of varying levels and needs.
