I'm Catherine Lamarche—a bilingual educator and life coach passionate about helping people unlock their full potential. With a background in both education and health, I offer workshops, group and private sessions that are always centered on my clients' needs. I truly believe that confidence is the foundation of success, and I love helping leaders, educators, parents, youth, and professionals build the tools they need to thrive. As a language teacher, I use a neurolinguistic approach to make learning French, English, and basic Spanish both effective and energizing. I’ve also organized educational trips—locally and internationally—and I love designing outdoor learning experiences that connect with meaningful goals. My degree in Human Kinetics included in-depth studies in psychology, nutrition, anatomy, physiology, and child development. I draw on this knowledge in everything I do—from leading mindfulness sessions to coaching sports like soccer, basketball, and volleyball, and teaching Chi Running. My approach to education is holistic, inspired by research-based practices used in innovative school systems around the world. I integrate principles like inquiry-based learning, growth mindset, critical thinking, mindfulness, nature-based education, and compassionate inquiry. Above all, I see every student as a whole person—and I’m here to support them in becoming confident, connected, and empowered learners. I’m so glad you’re here. Let’s connect! https://www.happystudent.ca/happy-student daily 0.75 2025-04-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/605bcae3a472022f9b1c0262/15c9cf0a-0f40-4f5b-a5e3-96027a1c1eda/in+person+and+virtual+french+%26+english.png Happy Student https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/605bcae3a472022f9b1c0262/0a1d0ed9-a18c-476f-ba0a-9e4581786e6f/about-happy-student.png Happy Student - About HappyStudent.ca HappyStudent.ca was born from a desire to support students and families in a more authentic, connected, and empowering way. As a teacher, mother, and human being, I’ve seen firsthand how traditional systems can overlook the importance of emotional intelligence, life skills, and individuality in learning. The lifestyle shift of 2020 pushed many of us to re-evaluate our values and the kind of future we want to create—for ourselves and for our children. Families and educators began seeking alternatives that nurtured not only academic success but also confidence, communication, and a deep sense of self. ️ Inspired by the belief that “education is the most powerful weapon we can use to change the world,” I created HappyStudent.ca as an organic response to this need. What began as a personal journey—moving from uncertainty to clarity and empowerment—has become a resource to help others do the same. Through holistic education and compassionate support, I help learners and families feel less overwhelmed, discover practical solutions, and reconnect with what truly matters. I look forward to walking this path with you. https://www.happystudent.ca/resources daily 0.75 2022-01-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/605bcae3a472022f9b1c0262/15c9cf0a-0f40-4f5b-a5e3-96027a1c1eda/in+person+and+virtual+french+%26+english.png Resources https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/605bcae3a472022f9b1c0262/676dd1be-4c8a-48d7-8a60-97a0bb7f156b/books.png Resources https://www.happystudent.ca/contact daily 0.75 2023-01-23 https://www.happystudent.ca/services daily 1.0 2025-04-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/605bcae3a472022f9b1c0262/15c9cf0a-0f40-4f5b-a5e3-96027a1c1eda/in+person+and+virtual+french+%26+english.png Services https://www.happystudent.ca/services/homeschool-program-parent-support monthly 0.5 2022-01-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/605bcae3a472022f9b1c0262/15c9cf0a-0f40-4f5b-a5e3-96027a1c1eda/in+person+and+virtual+french+%26+english.png Services - HomeSchool Program & Parent Support https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/605bcae3a472022f9b1c0262/a331e8bc-e84b-4502-a440-c112dafb0982/homeschool+x2.png Services - HomeSchool Program & Parent Support - Personalized Homeschooling Tailored to Your Family As an experienced educator, I understand that every child learns differently.
