Meet one of our amazing online bilingual teachers, Marie Frantz Pierre Louis Jules! ?? Home Country: Haiti ?? Languages Spoken: French, Haitian Creole, English, and a little Spanish too. ?? Best Advice for Students: Education is necessary for progress. Taking advantage of learning is one of the best choices for the future. Don’t view school as something you can’t handle! Motivation and good study habits could help overcome academic difficulties. ?? Fun Fact About Me: I look younger than my age. When I started teaching first grade in 2004 at the age of 19 in a school in Haiti where some high school students were sometimes older than me, it was so funny. I always had to dress like a businesswoman so that my students' parents would take me seriously. And, when I dressed a little more casually for an extracurricular activity, students took me for their classmate. This is where I learned to dance when I want to relax. I also learned to be more tender with children, and to love them, to live their moments, to understand them better afterwards.
