Travel information

I am currently

Activities i am interested in:

I live in Montreal, Canada. I'm a university librarian. I'm interested in languages, transmission, nature, ukulele, badminton, spirituality & dancing. I would like to discover Korean culture.

Description

I'm a person who likes to learn and discover, and I also like to share my knowledge. I listen and observe at first, but quickly open up and communicate easily. I was born in the South of France, but in my late twenties I immigrated to Montreal, Canada. I really like this city because it's cosmopolitan and festive (cultural events).
I'm a university librarian. I love my job. I teach information skills to students and support professors in their research work. In my spare time, I play badminton and learn to play the ukulele. I also love dancing and music (world music, electronic, French songs) and reading novels about women and travel.
I'm looking forward to meeting you ! Sophie

More details about my language interests
I have a master's degree in applied foreign languages. I speak French, English and Spanish. I've always been fascinated by languages because they bring people together from all over the world. I also studied communication and have a master's degree in library science. All my studies and my various travel experiences around the world show that I'm attracted to both information and culture, as well as the transmission and sharing of knowledge.

More details about your skills

I studied foreign languages and communications. I speak French (mother tongue), English and Spanish fluently. I'm at ease in front of a class since, as a librarian, I often give workshops to students. I also work individually with the student community, so I adapt my teaching to suit different personalities and learning styles. I also love helping younger children with their homework and reading them stories.
I've had the opportunity in my career (including my current job) to coordinate and participate in projects: organizing events and activities, for example. I'm very well organized, punctual and creative. I work well in a team, and I'm also autonomous when it comes to tasks that require it. I'm resourceful and motivated.
