I love French. C'est la plus belle langue du monde!

I am a senior at the University of St. Thomas studying French and Education. I am currently in the middle of completing my K-12 World Language Licensure for teaching in Minnesota. I spent the spring of 2012 in Paris living with a host family that did not speak any English and took five courses at a university taught strictly in French. I came back from Paris with a 3.7GPA for the semester over there and I have a cumulative GPA of 3.45.

French is one of my top subjects! I am a native French speaker with years of experience teaching and tutoring students of all ages and levels. My experience includes The Berlitz School of Languages and Alliance Francaise.

I hold a BA in foreign languages (Spanish, English) from La Sorbonne, Paris France. As well as a Master in International Business from Paris, and an MBA in finance from the University of Illinois. I worked as a French teacher for the Berlitz School of Languages and Alliance Francaise. Most of my students were immersion students (often entire families) who planned to relocate to France, Quebec or West Africa. I have tutored students of all ages and from various origins and backgrounds in French, Spanish, algebra, geometry, reading, writing, and social studies for the AP French and Spanish, GMAT, GED, GRE, and LSAT.
I believe in creative teaching as there are many ways of learning.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been a piano teacher for 29 years, teaching privately in my home studio. I am insatiable in my pursuit of knowledge, and have wide interests. My first degree in history and philosophy influenced me in how I approached all other fields of study. I am never satisfied with a superficial knowledge of anything I undertake. My experience with other cultures has been a huge influence in how I approach knowledge and how I approach teaching. I lived in Quebec, Canada for 29 years, learned French and studied in a French university. I also speak German. I am an excellent writer in English. Anything I have ever submitted for publication has been accepted.
The best validation I have for my teaching style is to watch my students. They are well-rounded in their knowledge and confident in their performance. I believe in enabling my students, showing them skills that will help th ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I love working with all ages and generally prefer English as a Second Language students, but I enjoy working with everyone. My teaching style is very student centered as I try to figure out what a learner likes to learn and cater the instruction to them so it stays fun and educational. I do not necessarily prescribe to a particular approach to teaching as I believe it takes a variety to make a difference. Every learner is different. I know I love teaching and I love when a student strives to be the best, that is truly the most rewarding thing about being an educator.
As an undergraduate at the University of Mississippi I was a teaching assistant for a College Skills class and also a year long tutor at Oxford High School in pre-algebra. After graduating from the University of Mississippi I lived in Seoul, South Korea and taught students ages 5-11 English as a Second Language, i ... read more

After a short evaluation (conversation), I usually define the level and proficiency of the student; then, adapt myself and my lessons to the student. The lessons will be a mixture of reading, writing, speaking, pronunciation and grammar. I will also remain very open to the student's requests and questions.
I am a French native speaker and I have been expressing myself in french for many years now. I currently work as a French Bilingual Customer Service Specialist for a Fortune 100 company located here in the Twin Cities. I am required to use both my French and English on a daily basis due to the fact that I support the Canadian market of the company I work for. My current position requires me to use both languages in the written and spoken forms. In addition to that,I worked a couple of years ago as an online French Tutor for a company located in California (www.fluencynow.com) and ... read more

I love teaching and conversing with my students.

Being a French native speaker I love teaching "my" language at any level, from PS to HS and adults. At home I speak French to my children. I am very confortable with German too as I speak German with my husband. Everyone has different learning abilities but I believe that given the right "tools" everyone can meet his/her potential. I can teach from books as well as have conversation courses.
My mother language is French. I studied German for 8 years and went to Germany to improve my skills. I studied English for 5 years, went to England and passed the Cambridge Proficiency Diploma. I have lived in France, Switzerland, Germany and England before moving to the States and been travelling extensively. I have taught French to adults evening classes in the German part of Switzerland. Last year I was a long-term full time French sub-teacher at the International School of Minnesota for a ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have taught children, high-school students, college students, and most recently, adults. Besides my experience working with people of all ages, I have also worked with many different cultures and skill levels. My exposure to teaching people with such diverse backgrounds has been very rewarding and has given me a more well-rounded teaching style. I am skilled at adjusting lessons to maximize the student's learning. This is especially useful when tutoring because, unlike teaching a large group of students, tutoring allows for more flexibility and custom tailoring of a lesson. This is also what makes tutoring such a useful tool. The personal attention gives students an advantage over others who don't seek the extra help. I am a congenial and creative teacher who is always patient with students. I enjoy helping them succeed.
I am committed to the study of languages as is refl ... read more
