Description
I am Marguerite Lemée-Benatar, a French/English 19-year-old. I was born and bred in South-West France in a small village, about an hour away from Bordeaux. Despite being raised in France, I am bilingual as my mother is English and has always talked to me in that language. After passing my Baccalaureate and I embarked on a gap year, where I spent the first month studying for a TEFL course. I then put my new found (or at least improved!) teaching skills to the test by teaching while travelling around Africa.
I love pottery and have been taking lessons since I was tiny, I also love drama and I am always up for a game of chess!
I am a friendly, out-going and enthusiastic person with easy people skills and am always happy to fit in and adapt to different situations. I am particularly good with kids and have a lot of experience with them.
