In my own words

Laurent Dubois

I began as a primary school teacher before focusing on teacher education and science education. This background shapes the way I approach projects: starting with questions, examining situations and connecting knowledge with experience. At university, with associations and foundations, and in sport, I am interested in the conditions that enable people to learn and reconsider their ideas. My work in education, writing and project support comes together around this attention to people and learning.
