Early Career Teacher Sessions - Integrative Assessments

Combining a lifelong passion for amateur sport with degrees in mathematics, literature, education and humanities, Marianne is a coach at heart. She began her career teaching high school math and science before moving to Vanier’s English department in 2005. Outside of her teaching duties at Vanier, she was curriculum coordinator of the department for seven years, provincial representative for English on the comite conseil, and a member of Academic Council.

Her experiences with team-teaching, peer observation, mentorship, and accompaniment led her to develop projects that encourage students to exchange with and learn from one another.

Currently, she is a faculty representative on CRT, representative of the English department on the General Education Committee (GEC), and works closely with the pedagogical office (PSI) on support of new and early-career teachers.

In her free time, you will find Marianne at the pool, on the soccer field, or writing the occasional sonnet.
