High school level geography courses for French-speaking or English-speaking students

From 120.32 $ /h

I hold a degree in Earth Sciences and have gained solid experience teaching geography through substitute teaching in several schools. My numerous professional stays abroad have also allowed me to complement my theoretical knowledge with practical experience in both human and physical geography.

As an external collaborator, I recently worked on a project aimed at improving the understanding and management of transboundary groundwater. In this context, I contributed to writing popular science articles on various water-related topics and collaborated on the development of an educational electronic game (serious game).

On behalf of a foundation, I helped develop an exhibition about water in Valais and worked as a guide for school visits. For a hotel management school, I developed a geotourism curriculum. On a more occasional basis, I also participated in information days and conferences for students in middle and high school.

Extra information

I have my own teaching materials, but I am also used to using documents provided by schools.
