During my time in Montpellier in the spring of 2023 for 8 weeks I had the privilege of working at L’École de la Deuxième Chance as an intern. L’École de la Deuxième Chance, located in the heart of Montpellier, is a school that gives students, ages 16-29, the opportunity to go back to school and learn the necessary skills and earn the required qualifications to integrate into the French workforce.
​
As an intern there, I was given the opportunity to actively participate and lead various group activities and classroom exercises, with the focus on cross-cultural communication and awareness. During my time working at L’École de la Deuxième Chance, I aided in administrative tasks such as meetings with students to discuss employment opportunities and their CV, as well as engaged in conversations with the students in discussing cultural differences and nuances. My time at L’École de la Deuxième Chance offered a unique insight into the French alternative education system and how the work environment functioned.
