Léa Gomes
Paris, France
Bio
Born in Bordeaux and long based in Paris, Léa holds a degree in Art History and Museology from the École du Louvre. After traveling the world from her chair, studying and sharing artworks from every corner of the globe, she finally decided to get up and embark on a new adventure in Boston. Passionate about sharing knowledge and convinced that language is the most intimate gateway into a culture, she sees teaching French as a natural way to continue her cultural journey in a new form. When she is not in the classroom, you will find her wandering through museums, cycling or strolling through the city with a graphic novel tucked in her bag.
