Bonjour-Hi!
Je m'appelle Madame Edmaiston, and I am thrilled to be the French teacher here at Edison! With a passion for language and culture, I bring 2 years of experience teaching French to high school and middle school students.
Originally from Lake Station and an Edison graduate myself, I actually started my French journey here in middle school. I have always been captivated by the beauty and richness of the French language. My journey in teaching began 2 years ago when I realized the profound impact language learning can have on one's life.
My teaching philosophy revolves around creating a dynamic and immersive learning environment where students feel empowered to explore, make mistakes, and ultimately, succeed. Through interactive activities, real-life scenarios, field trips and cultural insights, I aim to instill not only linguistic proficiency but also a deep appreciation for the Francophone world. I firmly believe that language learning extends beyond the confines of textbooks, and I am committed to fostering a love for French that transcends the classroom walls.
Outside the classroom, you can find me reading, traveling, going to concerts, watching films or hanging out with my dogs. I am also the sponsor for the French Club, the Class of 2027 and the Middle School Student Council as well as the high school cheer coach.
À bientôt!
