This thought of Nikos Kazantzakis, Greek writer and philosopher has always reminded me of the tremendous love I have of teaching or tutoring: "Ideal teachers [tutors] are those who use themselves as bridges over which they invite their students to cross, then having facilitated their crossing, joyfully collapse, encouraging them to create bridges of their own." Instead of admiring good thought only, I usually feel concerned doing something about it. Unfortunately, in my home country, the Democratic Republic of Congo, the teaching/tutoring profession is not highly regarded, and so I did not go down that path professionally. My decision to go to law school to become a legal professional did not stop me from finding alternative methods of teaching or tutoring. While in high school, I was passionate about sharing the excitement of a good book to classmates; in addition, I was involved in m

In Lyon I helped young middle school children with their English at an after school program. At first this was very difficult for me but I figured out the best way to effectively help the kids learn. I found that engaging the students using their own personal interests was key. For example, using video game or cartoon magazines to start conversation topics and to help with pronunciation, spelling, etc. Kids love to learn if it's fun and exciting. The French language has been one of my passions since I started studying it in high school. I followed this passion into college at UC Davis where I will receive my BA in French next month. I recently returned from a year long study abroad program in Lyon, France where I studied International Relations at the University of Lyon. I will also receive a BA in this subject. My French has improved tremendously and I am proud to say that I have master

As a high school student, I tutored my peers in French, drawing on my life-long use of the language to help others understand the intricacies of conjugation and word order. Now, as a college student, I am continuing my study of French to coordinate the dialect I learned at home with the formal use of the language. My tutoring experience in reading includes work with students at Mountain View Elementary School in Concord. There, I met with students who were struggling with reading at their grade level and helped them with pronunciation and comprehension. As a health educator, I am well-versed in anatomy, physiology, kinesiology, and pathology. I prefer to teach not through rote memorization or lengthy lectures, but through participatory experiences. Following the theory that some people are audio learners, some are visual learners, and some are kinesthetic (doing) learners, I like to c

It is my goal to provide support for all students striving to learn the academic, social, and emotional skills needed to become lifelong learners. I believe that the teacher and the curriculum must inspire the passion and power to make positive choices throughout life; education is the one and only key to reaching these goals and I consider it my job to make sure each student is prepared not just to meet them, but to exceed them. I have spent over ten years in the classroom teaching English Comprehension, Literature, Writing and Spelling to students in middle school. I have also worked extensively with struggling readers grades 4-12, and with English Language Learners. I have supervised summer school programs, led peer-tutoring groups, and run a school newspaper. I currently volunteer as a liaison between my school district and my city, sit on the board of a local parenting group with o

Married to an Englishman, with two grown-up daughters, I have lived in California for the past 13 years, prior to which we lived in the UK. My experience includes work for the language department of Cricklade College, Andover, UK. I also worked for Langnet (a company specializing in teaching languages to business professionals) and taught private lessons to a range of people from young children through students, adults, professionals, military, and retired people with holiday homes in France! Prior to all this, I worked a number of years for the medical and TV broadcast industries, in various roles including marketing, sales and administration. Whether the lesson is necessary for academic requirements or for leisure, I have always enjoyed passing my knowledge of the French language and culture to
