BFI teacher training
Drawing on my experience of developing the Section Internationale at the Lycée Français Charles de Gaulle de Londres, I offer training to teachers who teach History-Geography as part of the British option of the baccalauréat français international (BFI).
I am fascinated by different cultural and pedagogical approaches to teaching History. Using my experience of studying and teaching History in both England and France (in English and French), I am uniquely placed to help teachers newly discovering the BFI.
I work with BFI teachers to develop sequences of lessons and individual lesson plans, which we immediately apply to the classroom. After pair teaching/observation, teachers will receive feedback to help them develop their future lessons and ensure the success of our students in the History-Geography BFI programme.
