In 1842 Charlotte and Emily travelled to Brussels to enrol in a boarding school run by Constantin Heger ( 1809 – 96 ) and his wife Claire Zoé Parent Heger ( 1804 – 87 ).
In return for board and tuition, Charlotte taught English and Emily taught music.
Their time at the school was cut short when Elizabeth Branwell, their aunt who joined the family to look after the children after the death of their mother, died of internal obstruction in October 1842.
Charlotte returned alone to Brussels in January 1843 to take up a teaching post at the school.
Her second stay was not happy ; she was lonely, homesick and deeply attached to Constantin Heger.
She returned to Haworth in January 1844 and used the time spent in Brussels as the inspiration for some experiences in The Professor and Villette.
