“Salut salut, je suis là maîtresse Domché Chimène. Du fait de mon Amour pour les enfants, j’ai décidé de faire la filière psychologie à l’université de Yaoundé afin de mieux les connaître et comprendre leurs comportements . C’est ainsi qu’après l’obtention de ma licence , j’ai fait le concours de l’école normale ( conseillés d’orientation et sciences de l’éducation) ce qui n’a pas été positif. Mais, parce que j’aime beaucoup les enfants et l’enseignement, je n’ai pas baissé les bras et je me suis finalement retrouvé à l’ENIEG où j’ai obtenu en 2012 mon CAPIEMP. C’est ainsi que ma carrière professionnelle a commencé. D’abord en tant que répétiteur et ensuite Institutrice à l’école primaire.”L’enseignement est ma passion”. Alors, je rends grâce à Dieu. Surtout quand je suis face à ces bouts de chou.”
