I taught five years in rural college in Brittany then in the Hauts de France then three years in REP+ in Saint-Denis de La Réunion. I also gave private lessons in French literature to students wishing to refresh their skills or prepare for exams. Every year, I took on the same challenge: Introduce a new cohort of students to Latin, motivate and inspire them with a new approach to Latin based on the observation of their environment where Latin is present everywhere, the pedagogy of project, the teaching of Latin as a living language, games, theater and the creation of plastic works. Passion but also rigor, kindness, adaptability and creativity are the main qualities that appeal to my teaching and which have meant that so many students have taken my Latin courses and never with regret! I offer beginner to intermediate level Latin lessons. These courses are ideal for children but will also delight the big children that we still are sometimes. Here are some examples of activities practiced in innovative teaching: Creation of games on the origin of Latin languages, decoding of films or books based on mythology, introduction to Latin thanks to the spells of Harry Potter, workshops for the translation of Latin proverbs or quotations, creation of sketches in Latin.
