  • Description

    Passionate about adventure, sport and discovery. Former computer engineer, recently certified as a windsurfing instructor, I'm looking to change direction by reorienting myself towards education and passing on my passion for movement and health. I have worked for 6 month for a french association promoting sports for children and adults and then 6 month in a resort as a windsurf instructor. During those experiences I was living onsite with the guests, I loved the community way of livng, meeting a lot of persons coming from different places sharing meals and evenings. For this summer I want to change a little bit of context and try my first workaway experience and work/help in a smaller setting while being close to the sea to enjoy some watersports :D

    =====FR=====
    J'ai étudié l'informatique et la data science et j'ai travaillé pendant 2 ans en tant qu'ingénieur logiciel. Je me suis désormais réorienter vers l'éducation et la transmission de ma passion pour le sport, en tant que moniteur de planche à voile.

    Pendant mes études, j'ai aidé d'autres étudiants à réussir leurs examens. J'ai également travaillé pendant deux saisons en tant que moniteur de ski pour des jeunes de 8 à 14 ans et j'ai accompagné plusieurs camps scolaires. Actuellement j'enseigne la planche à voile et souhaite me former à d'autres disciplines nautique. J'adore autant transmettre que d'apprendre de nouvelles choses.

    Ma langue maternelle est le français, je suis très à l'aise en anglais et j'apprends l'espagnol.

    =====EN=====
    I studied computer science and data science and worked for two years as a software engineer. I have since shifted my career toward education and sharing my passion for sport, working as a windsurfing instructor.
    During my studies, I helped other students succeed in their exams. I also worked for two seasons as a ski instructor for children aged 8 to 14 and accompanied several school camps. I am currently teaching windsurfing and would like to train in other water sports disciplines. I enjoy teaching just as much as learning new things.
    My native language is French, I am very comfortable in English, and I am learning Spanish.
