Virginie Leclerc was born and raised in France, in a small village near Dijon, Burgundy. After high school, she left France to go to England to learn English. This is where she discovered a passion for travel which led her to work in the travel and airline industry for more than seven years.

Virginie moved a lot and lived in a number of different countries over the past 25 years, including two years in England, two years in Canada, ten years in Ireland, and now eleven years here in the United States.

Virginie had the opportunity to start a new career in education and started to teach French at EFGSeattle on Saturday mornings. She is happy to have joined Les Lilas as an assistant teacher in La Maternelle.

Virginie has two daughters and, together with her husband, they enjoy the numerous outdoor activities the region has to offer, from mountain biking, to hiking, to snowboarding.
