In this conversation
We meet Ilys, who was 25 when we recorded this conversation. French-Norwegian at heart, she is an entrepreneur and creates content about learning Norwegian. She shares her adolescence between France and Canada, school anxiety, a difficult return to France, the gradual process of finding her feet, and a relationship that brought her to Norway.
We talk about personality, confidence, culture shock, settling in, winter, emotional recovery, teaching and learning languages. And about what led her to teach Norwegian on YouTube and Instagram.
A conversation about the relationships that help us find our feet again, and the wish to teach differently.
