My comments on tutoring German : After learning German all through grade and highschool I then spent a semester in Freiburg, Germany where I breathed, ate and slept all things German. Since then I have been back several times and continue my passion for the language and culture.

I have always had a strong passion for languages and perhaps because of this have done extensive traveling. I have lived in several countries and speak several languages. In my adventures I have found time and again that the easiest, most effortless and fastest way to learn a language is to immerse oneself in that culture. Why? Because it is not enough to remember that "arrivederci" translates to "goodbye." Rather, to really know the inside of a language one must also know and understand its people and the culture it comes from.
I truly believe conversation is the best way to learn a new language.

More About This Tutor...

I have a Bachelor of Arts in German from University of Missouri and have studied German for 12 years. I lived and worked in Germany for a full year, which helped me reach a level of fluency in the language. During my year there, I tutored young adults in German once a week. Although I am not a native speaker, I have become very familiar with German and continue to expand my vocabulary with regular reading and practice. I am always eager to converse in German and enjoy teaching others through conversation.

German (Deutsch fuer alle)

I am a graduate of the University of Warsaw located in Poland, where I earned a master’s degree in German with a specialization in teaching as German second/foreign language. I spent many years in Germany improving my German and later teaching it. I have been teaching for four years in many settings such as schools, tutoring and church based curriculum. My teaching experience has afforded me the opportunity to assume various responsibilities at multiple levels, such as preparing students for examinations, directing an after-school language programs (immersion), counseling students, teachers and families, classroom management and lesson planning.
I believe that understanding the learning style of a child or an adult can provide a map to success and a key way to avoid frustration. Each person seems to have his or her particular blend of techniques for mastering educational subject ... read more

More About This Tutor...

While pursuing my honors degree in mathematics at the University of Chicago, I supported myself through numerous tutoring jobs. I have taught mathematics to students of all ages and abilities, including college-level calculus, set theory, logic, number theory, trigonometry, geometry, algebra, and arithmetic. I have also tutored my fellow students in various topics of physics. While conducting several research projects in pure mathematics, I spent the summers teaching public school teachers in Chicago new ways to improve their classroom instruction. I also have extensive experience in the humanities. My second degree is a BA (honors) in film theory, which is complemented by many classes in philosophy, literature, and art history.
The advantage of one-on-one tutoring is the productive, personal relationship that arises between tutor and student. As a tutor, I use this relationship to ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I find the child's strengths and weaknesses. I communicate on their level. I am patient and fun to be around. I can get through to them because of my instincts.
I've been tutoring for the Goodwill to help disadvantaged youth, tutoring ASU students in accounting, economics and algebra. In addition, I helped a friend pass her GED. I have a Marketing BS as well as over 15 hours in accounting and German. Professionally, I have done over 18 years of sales training. In addition, I've been a guest lecturer at Indiana University Northwest and a consultant to the Gary Area Career Center and past member for the Hoosiers for Higher Education. I prefer to tutor math but can tutor other subjects as well.
