By Elijah, Esteban and Samuel
We are from Théophile Gautier in Year 11 in the BFI (International French Baccalaureate) class, and we have the great opportunity to be accompanied throughout the year with an English language assistant named Anyangu Mukhutsi Majimbo. Here are the questions we asked him for the interview:
- What is your age ?
I was born in 2000, I am therefore 25 years old.
- And where are you from ?
I am from Kakamega county in the Western Region of Kenya. Kenya is made up of 47 counties.
- Can you tell us about your family ?
Yes I can, I am from a family of 8, 5 of those are my siblings, so I have 3 sisters and 2 brothers.
- What are your hobbies, passions and your favourite foods ?
I am passionate about the French language, martial arts and debating. So I moved to France mainly because of the French language, that I am still learning, as well as the French gastronomy like duck confit. But it is not the only food I like, seeing that in my top 3 meals there is also an Indian traditional food that is the Chapati and chicken that is like a form of bread. I also practice some martial arts in my own time so it’s not a regular activity of mine but one that I enjoy lots doing. Though, my favourite thing to do is to participate in debates. I have been leader of a debate club, in which I have led the club in participating in 6 debate competitions. The reason why I like debates so much is the fact that one has to argue to be able to have a chance in successfully winning a debate, they also improve oral skills and ones capability of doing the research.
- What do you plan for your future ?
My dream job is to work remotely from any were, so from my computer so that I can travel the world whilst being able to work. As for the work, I would like to become a software engineer, specialising in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and embedded systems.
- So what is your present job ?
At the moment I am an English language assistant, that is the reason why I am here with you during your weekly English lessons to give you my advice and assistance in learning English. But that isn’t enough to survive off, so I am also an electronic engineer after I got my degree in electrical and electronic engineering.
- Why not being a language assistant of a different language, French for example, if you don’t mind me asking ?
Not at all, and my answer to this question is I have no idea. I could very well be a French language assistant.
Well thank you Anyangu for participating in this interview. This is a class of Year 11 from the French school Théophile Gautier from Tarbes. Over and out, thank you all.
