Pam Canadas

Inspector

A native Californian, Pam studied English and French literature at the University of California at Davis and Berkeley, then at l’Université d’Aix-en-Provence before setting off on a life of adventures around the world, teaching both English and French in Buea, Cameroon, at the University of Nairobi, the Institut français d’Athènes, the Escuela de Minas in Oviedo, Spain and finally literature at the Lycée Magendie in Bordeaux where she was head of the International American Section as a professeur agrégé.  Her daughter and son grew up in our old country home in the countryside overlooking the village of the philosopher Montesquieu, bringing much joy and many parties to add to our annual OIB graduation barbecues. Pam has been Inspectrice Déléguée de langue littérature for the past ten years, blessed to carry on her passion for teaching and sharing great works of literature with students and teachers around the world.
