        Bonjour! I'm Madame Louis and I have been teaching French for 11 years. I have taught at Canyon High School, Buena Park High School, Troy High School, Brea Jr. High and, of course, my favorite, Brea Olinda High School! I teach French 2 and AVID 9, 11 & 12 this year. I earned a BA in Theater and French from USC, a MA in French from CSUF as well as teaching credentials in French and English.
         I spent some time living in Paris, attending La Sorbonne (the University of Paris) and teaching English at Lycée Victor Hugo. While living in France, I met my amazing husband and since we have had two adorable, and quite active, children, Lucy and Oliver. I return to France with my family every summer to travel and visit family.
          I thank you for entrusting your loved ones with me! I try to provide a welcoming, inclusive learning environment where taking risks is encouraged and rewarded. Please feel free to email me about anything!

Hello future BOHS AVID 9 students - 
     Why should you take AVID 9? Here's why - AVID 9 teaches important organization, time management, and critical thinking skills to help students succeed in high school. We also focus on college and career exploration with field trips to College Fairs, University Campus visits, a Career Fair, guest speakers from specific professions and college recruiters. It's a no brainer! Add AVID 9 to your registration card NOW and then fill out our short AVID 9 online application (attached below). When you've submitted your application please ask your favorite teacher to complete our Teacher Recommendation form (attached below).
