About Me

I am Laura, a bilingual primary teacher originally from La RĂ©union, currently based near Paris, and relocating home in August 2026 to pursue a career in international education.

Growing up in La RĂ©union, a French island in the Indian Ocean where French, RĂ©union Creole, and multiple cultures coexist, shaped who I am as a person and as an educator. I then studied law at King's College London and the Sorbonne, explored development economics, and eventually found my calling in the classroom. That winding, multicultural path gave me something valuable: the ability to think across disciplines, languages, and cultures.

For the past six years, I have taught children aged 3 to 11 across the French public system, from nursery to upper primary. I hold the CRPE and am a tenured teacher (professeure des Ă©coles titulaire).

Teaching Philosophy

Three pillars guide everything I do in the classroom.

🛡️

Safety First, Learning Second

A child cannot learn if they do not feel emotionally and physically safe. I create a warm, secure classroom climate where every child feels seen, heard, and confident enough to take risks, make mistakes, and grow.

🔬

Evidence Over Intuition

I ground my practice in research, from reading acquisition strategies to developmental psychology. When something works, I want to know why it works, so I can replicate and adapt it.

🎨

Every Child's Own Path

Differentiated instruction is not a buzzword. It is a daily practice. I design learning experiences that meet each child where they are, not where a curriculum says they should be.

Writing

Reflections on teaching, bilingualism, and early childhood education.

Resources

Tools, books, and approaches that shape my teaching practice.

My Approach to Differentiated Instruction
