Saskatoon, Saskatchewan

Grade 12, Holy Cross High School, French Immersion

First language: English

For me, bilingualism is important because it's a power in our modern world.  The power to communicate with many cultures is not only useful, but it also gives the possibility for social, spiritual, and psychological growth.  Personnally, bilingualism is my passion!

My dream: To move to Belgium after university, teach English, but use French in my day to day life.  The opportunity to use both languages equally is amazing!  Also, I really want to encourage bilingualism among youth in our society.

How I practice French daily: I only have the chance to practice during certain classes at school and sometimes with my Immersion friends and brothers and sister.  That's why I want to live in a francophone residence during university, so that I can use and improve my French.  I also want to develop my vocabulary.

Favourite French expression: « Ben ça c’est niaiseux! »

Favourite hobby: Playing soccer and the piano.  I also love reading.
