Florent Tarsiguel
3rd Grade – French
Elementary School
JERSEY CITY, NJ

Florent grew up in the hinterlands of Nice before going to school in Nice. He had many jobs before becoming a teacher. The one that fulfilled him the most was being a camp counselor, then a camp director. Providing children with unique experiences and unforgettable moments is a significant driving force for Florent, and it’s only natural that he gravitated toward teaching. He is a basketball fan, and he goes to the movies as often as possible. His ideal meal would consist of eating three desserts: for the appetizer, the main course, and, of course, for dessert!

Magalie Boyer
PK4 – French
Preschool
JERSEY CITY, NJ

I am Magalie Boyer, a PK4 (Pre-Kindergarten 4) teacher. I quickly understood the role of school in life. I was never short on enthusiasm when getting up in the morning; in fact, I was more afraid of oversleeping. I loved learning but also enjoyed seeing my classmates both inside and outside the classroom. So, I decided at a very young age that I would become a school teacher. Today, I still love learning, but I realize that as a child, I had no idea what was actually in store for me.
