French is one of my top subjects! I am a fluent speaker of French being married to a French native and having 12 yrs experience as a high school French teacher.

I use a variety of methods, some TPR, traditional, CLT, Natural Approach, some immersion, audio - lingual. I am always looking for fun ways to teach and I feel that students learn so much easier when their teacher is as enthused as they are about learning the language.
I have 11 yrs experience teaching in a California high school setting and 5 years experience as a tutor for ESL and for French at OSU, 3 years experience teaching English in France and lived in France for 7 years. I also have taken many students to France on EF Tour trips. I have advised French clubs for 12 years.

French is one of my top subjects! I've spent a total of 3 months abroad in France, and I spent time studying French in Brussels, Belgium in the Fall of 2013.

I have completed 4 years of the French language at Charleroi High School, and I have also studied abroad in Brussels, Belgium. I will begin my studies in the French language at the University of Pittsburgh in the Fall of 2014. I have spent 3+ months abroad in France/Belgium, and I have acquired fluency in the French language and I have also obtained a near native accent. Also, I have tutored many of my contemporaries in French and other subjects as well. I have been recognized by my high school French teacher for my accomplishments and advancements in the language over the years.

A Little Bit About Me...

I like to teach using examples, either on a board to show a person step by step first. Then try to give the student examples to try to solve themselves. If this does not work I continue to breakdown a problem until we can clearly identify where the student is having trouble.
I have helped tutor friends’ kids on math from little school to high school. I have taken math all the way up to Differential equations and feel alright tutoring up to calculus one. I do not possess documented experience from schools or other organizations. I am a very highly motivated individual that does not mind helping others. I also have experience in teaching or helping coach little league sports educating kids on how to play games correctly. I have also been an assistant coach and helped out at Clinton Community College with girl’s softball under the head coach.

My goal is to help your child achieve the educational success they deserve. I believe all children can meet their potential. I feel it is best to incorporate things they love with learning how to do the most complicated subjects. It helps them to stay focused and want to learn. It makes me proud to know that I have helped a child achieve their goals and see the smile on their face knowing they did it!

I enjoyed teaching at an undergraduate level but I believe each student is unique and requires specific attention. My teaching style resort to interactive as well as classic materials. Case studies, pronounciation worshops, in-context use and practice are key to successful teaching.
I graduated with an MBA in International Business, started a career in Marketing Management and then got into International Education. A few years ago, I was given the opprotunity to teach part time at my alma mater. I taught assoiciate and bachelor's level students such subjects as Introduction to Marketing and Strategic Marketing. This unique experience strenghened my teaching skills. I then realized I had a talent and love for education. Also, as a native French speaker I was a French conversational partner and tutor for American students during my graduate years in Monterey California. Today, I woul ... read more

I have studied French for a total of 5 and half years in high school and in college. I double majored in International Business and French receiving a High Honors in French, where I tutored other students. I also studied in France completing 2 summer programs there; one for French Language at the Sorbonne University of Paris in 2005 and the other completing an internship working full-time in 2006 with a French company in Paris via Boston University. I have since my graduation in 2007 been working with primarily Canadian clients as an English/French speaking representative, which has kept my skills sharp.
French was my favorite subject in school and it definitely is my passion. I now use French daily in my career but when I first started taking it in high school, I had no idea how far it would take me. I would very much like to impart the wisdom and skills that I have learned to ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

While studying at Bradley University, I worked with the CHOICES program tutoring local disadvantaged High School students in core curriculum: History, English, Math, Science, etc. As a French tutor, I volunteered to help my fellow classmates learn the French language. After obtaining my Bachelor of Arts degree in French and Spanish from Bradley University in May of 2006, I continued to provide educational instruction as an AmeriCorps KEYS volunteer. As a team of AmeriCorps members, we developed a grant-winning curriculum that benefited underprivileged youth, provided one-on-one instruction to struggling elementary students in Math and Reading, counseled at-risk youth, and taught lessons at a day camp for disadvantaged children. In addition to my service in AmeriCorps, my primary project as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Ukraine was to teach English at a secondary school 18 hours per wee ... read more

In the past, I have tutored other students, usually my peers, off and on, and it never fails to provide satisfaction at helping others learn. As a 2009 graduate of Allegheny College, I earned a BS in Biology with a minor in French. I served as a "Peer Leader" for incoming freshman, where I acted in the capacity as a teaching assistant and made myself available to the students if they needed help writing papers, doing research, or with any other academic aspect not directly related to that class. I have helped with English grammar, writing papers, and informally, I have aided others with Biology and French.
I have a love of learning, and there is nothing better than teaching others to love it, too. I am very patient, organized, and considerate of your child's needs, learning pace, and abilities. I believe that anyone can do well if they have the proper guidance and help. I've ... read more

Having taught French for over 18 years, I have mastered the techniques of teaching the language. I always attended French Pedagogic seminars in order to acquire more skills in the teaching of this subject. I taught French to English speaking students and I taught English to French speaking students in my country (CAMEROON,WEST AFRICA) before migrating to the United States. English and French are the two official languages of my country because CAMEROON was under the British and French Administration.
If a student is unable to understand my explanation of a word in French, I often switch to English so that he/she can understand. As a French teacher, I love speaking the language to my students wherever I meet them after the regular classes. I am always willing to help my students wherever they meet me. They are free to ask me questions on the subject. Learning does not end in ... read more

As a summa cum laude graduate, I know the meaning of perseverance and what it means to excel. My undergraduate degree is in Secondary Social Studies Education, but I have also conducted extensive research in International Studies, Human Rights, French, and Mandarin. I have, through my study abroad experience and my passion for traveling, developed a world view that thrives on education. I have taught middle school for the past 4 years in a variety of settings including rural, urban, and suburban, and I have also taught in accelerated summer camp programs and environmental education settings. In addition to my formal classroom experiences, I have tutored on an individual level consistently throughout the years.
I pride myself on my desire to structure my lessons and my attitude in a student-centered way, and I am keenly aware that the true environment of my classroom depends on ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I was the salutatorian of my high school class. I excelled in every subject, and was a member of the tutoring club. I also tutored my cousin, who has Down Syndrome, helping him with his summer school work, including literature, handwriting, math, and Spanish. I majored in Art at the Pennsylvania State University. I also took many different courses in Art and Art History, including drawing, painting, sculpture, and photography.
My teaching style is very versatile. I think the best way to teach is to first assess the areas that need the most work, and then devise a simple, logical approach to help the student understand the material. Some students learn visually, others learn by repetition. It takes a lot of adaptation to make sure the student really grasps the ideas.

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated from my Master´s at West Virginia University in May 2010. Spanish Literature is my main area of concentration and Linguistics is my second area of concentration. I am a native speaker of Spanish but I am also fluent in German, English and French. I graduated in May 2008 with my bachelor’s degree in Translation and Interpreting at Universidad de Valladolid, Spain. During this period, I studied abroad for four semesters in France and Germany, and also worked as an English instructor.
My philosophy of teaching has been built upon my personal experience as a student, upon my theoretical education in Second Language Teaching Methodology class, and most importantly upon my teaching experience. For me, successful teaching of a second language implies: • Meaningful learning • Professionalism • Positive atmosphere in the class

I am a recent university graduate with a bachelor of science degree in French Education K-12 (major) and a minor in German. I have completed one year of teaching in Howard County Public Schools in Maryland. I have been an active reading, math, and English as a foreign language tutor since 2003 and have completed various student teaching experiences.
After completing a year as a teacher I realized that what I liked about teaching is the actual teaching part. Unfortunately for me, most of what was involved with being a teacher for me included tasks other than teaching, which was not what I had expected. I do very well with 1-on-1 tutoring and small group tutoring. The 11-15 age group is what I am especially interested in, but I have had experience with all ages from 4-25 years old. I have a lot of patience with students and passion for my subject (language), and what really mak ... read more
