I have worked with students at all levels from pre-k to doctoral students and a present I tutor Master's degree students on how to write their dissertations. It is my contention that students are capable of far more than has been expected of them. The result of my perspective is that I now have students who are college professors themselves, teachers and IT professionals. Few if any of my students leave me without have a more global perspective of the world and a desire to make it a better place to live.
I began my college career at Columbia University, N.Y. where I matriculated in the top 5% of entrants. I moved to Africa where I lived and returned 10 years later. I joined the United Nations where I worked at headquarters New York and later as a field officer in the Middle East and South Africa. Part of my assignment during my stay in the Middle East was to teach the local staf ... read more

In 1987 I graduated from Quebec University in Montreal Canada. I taught for several years French, Mathematic and Sciences at elementary and secondary levels. I also built my own academics material based on individualization. I mostly used visual aids and sounds techniques for memorizing words, sentences and phrases; role play and gestures. I promoted litterature such as fables from Jean de Lafontaine. I utilized french music to the end of engraining knowledge by rote. My methods were simple interesting durable and longterm.
I possess specifics books,visual and audio material to prepare my students learning French. I also built my own material based on many years of expertises and experiences as a French teacher. My teaching is based on memorization, words related to the Latin roots. My students will see and learn that the French language is attainable, knowing about the litterat ... read more

My teaching experience was when I was in practice as a psychiatrist. I served as a preceptor to residents in the Family Practice residence program, St. Francis Hospital, Wilmington, DE, for about five years in the 1980s. I would apply that experience to the teaching of French, and Russian
I would assess and teach high school and college-level students with a conversational method. This would help identify the areas of deficiency. I would also supplement this with reading and writing. Whatever texts the student would have from their institution would be the basic source of course planning. Supplemental reading needs might then also be identified and assigned.

I try to tailor my style to the student. Each student I had tutored when I was in college I had basically spoke with them, got to learn what they strong points were, their weaknesses, and areas that needed more base learning. I tailored lesson plans to help fill in their educational gaps, created small weekly assignments, and also helped with their current homework/lesson plan. I believe everyone learns in different ways. Some are more visual, others are more auditory so I tried to not only explain but also show by using whatever tools necessary/applicable (graphs, pictures, charts, etc.)
My love of mathematics began while I was in elementary school--I looked forward to those classes and took as many as I could from my high school, Wyoming Area. I had, at one point in middle school, helped to tutor some students in one of my classes. While in college at Susquehanna University ... read more

I feel that the best teachers are the ones who have fun while teaching. I have had the fortune of always loving what I do. All children have the potential to acheive success if they are challenged and provided with the proper tools. I have been told several times that I am great at thinking "outside the box", and this has served the children I have worked with well.My background in Art and Special Ed allow me to be a practical and creative teacher. I have learned that not all learning is conducted through traditional manners. Some children require videos, others hands on experience to improve learning. It is my goal to make a positive impact on all of my students' lives.
I graduated from Southern CT State University in 2007 with a degree in Art Education. I have been teaching or substitute teaching in some capacity since my sophomore year of college. I have been exposed to ... read more

I get the attention of the students through a dialogue of questions and answers , diagnosis of all previous lessons and applying the lessons through excerising the lesson. I'm big on enhancing my students experience anyway I can for example I would go outside if needed make them act out the words or lesson to ensure they can relate it to real life and things they are familiar with outside the classroom.
Teacher with over 10 years as a French teacher. In Egypt I taught French for elementary schools for ten years and was chosen to go to france for two weeks to utilize my vast experience in an international conference.

I am a seasoned enthusiastic teacher whose top priority is not salary, but student achievement and job satisfaction. As such I would love to share my passion for the French language and culture with students of all ages. I previously taught all levels of French, including AP, for 11 years at Oratory Prep School in Summit, New Jersey. Subsequently, I taught for 13 years in the Randolph School District where I was voted teacher of the year in 2008. I also taught adults as an adjunct at Sussex County Community College. I hold a Masters of French Literature degree.
I strive to let my passion for French motivate my students to achieve. I empower them to succeed by individualizing the subject matter and breaking it down into attainable goals. Students must see connections between themselves and the subject matter and in order to discover how it works by manipulate it in an engaging way ... read more
