Eléonore PURCELL

My name is Eleonore. I’m Dutch and married to a Canadian man. I have 2 boys who have been brought up trilingual.
My initial formation was to teach French and Art to teens.
When we moved to France and I found out about the Petit Monde, I immediately realized that teaching young children was really the job for me.

I love to work with young children because they have so much curiosity, enthusiasm and an amazing ability to learn. It is an enriching challenge to be the first bridge for them between home and school.
A wonderful thing about teaching young children is that you can use all your creativity to teach them language and many other skills.
I always work around a theme and try to find different ways to explore the subject through arts, music, theater and all other games.
Even though I began working at the Petit Monde in January 1993, I am still here, passionately enjoying it!
