Personnellement, je pense que je n'ai pas choisi l'enseignement mais l'enseignement m'a choisi. Je suis devenu en quelque sorte une aide magique pour beaucoup de mes étudiants dans le passé, car j'ai travaillé avec des lycéens, des étudiants de niveau collégial et universitaire.

I took French for 2 years in school and I really enjoyed it. I know how much it means to someone if they can speak their home language, so if anyone is wanting to learn French I would be able to help in the basic conversation and comprehension.
