More About This Tutor...

I believe that when a student does not do well in school, it is not because that student cannot learn. Different teaching methods speak to different students, and sometimes a student simply needs a fresh and alternative introduction to subject material. My job as a tutor is to find the teaching method that speaks most clearly to my student. By being patient, precise, persistent, and knowledgeable, I know I can help my student reach his/her academic goals.
My excellent writing skills, ACT score of 35, and passion for academics got me into Vanderbilt University, from which I acquired my BA in 2009. I studied every subject I could but found most pleasure in political science and sociology. In addition to these fields, I have expertise in grammar, essay composition, and a variety of creative arts. I also have teaching knowledge of the basic maths and sciences. Overall, I have about thr ... read more

I have always told my classes, "Learning can be fun; and if it's not, you may not be doing it right." Of course, that does not mean learning isn’t work; but part of growing up – and selecting a career – is learning that work can be enjoyable. I should mention that it is not my way to enforce memorization for the sake of it. If you understand concepts, that is much better. I always say “an example is the embodiment of a rule”. I am always committed to a student’s success; and will not let him or her give up. The biggest thrill in teaching is watching a student suddenly understand a concept. It happens frequently, and it never gets old.
For four years I taught in private schools, where I gave instruction at the middle and high school levels in English, French, Hebrew, computer programming, and office applications (spreadsheets, etc). I taught Math and English for one year at ... read more

At the age of 24 already possessing a bachelor's and master's degree illustrates my efficiency and determination. I have taught English as a second language at the high school level and politcal science at the university level. I am very personable and able to relate to various types and education levels of students. I have tutored in history, english, spanish, italian, social studies, civics, and the arts.
I enjoy enabling students to discover the abilities within themselves. I excel at being able to get students to find answers to their struggles by asking them the right questions, leading them in the right direction instead of doing the work for them. I have an uncanny ability to see the best in all students, patience, understanding, and flexibilty are virtues in tutoring. Each student is unique and needs an individual style of assistance. A solid educational foundation provide ... read more

I have tutored for over ten years. I began this work in my undergraduate years at Mercer University where I was employed as a writing/grammer/ESL tutor through the university learning center. I also worked as a tutor through Mercer with the NCAA CHAMPS program for student athletes. While at graduate study at Vanderbilt University, I was employed as a teaching assistant. I tutored individual students on writing style and grammar for academic essays. I have tutored students in my spare time for years as a source of extra income and through volunteer projects.
I love to teach, and I have taught many subjects. I have worked with students in art, french, English, and art history. Each subject and each student requires a different approach, and I enjoy rising to this challenge. I enjoy witnessing my students' success. In college, I specifically tutored student athletes who were in da ... read more

I began my French studies in my first year at Belmont and I enjoyed it so much that I decided to study the language primarily. After my first trip to France in the summer of 2007, my skills in the language took off, as did my passion for learning. I began tutoring other student athletes and other students at my university who studied French. After I graduated, I gave French lessons to two small children on a weekly basis. I have continued to study the language independently, and I founded a small conversation group that meets weekly.
Aside from my French degree and tutoring experience, I also received a minor in Elementary Education. During my years at Belmont, I worked with elementary-aged refugee students and learned the patience required to walk another student through the learning process. I also spent some time in the classroom, and learned even more to meet students whe ... read more

As a graduate of both Tulane University and Middle Tennessee State University, I have two degrees, BA and MAT, both in French. In addition to all of the challenging coursework and extra-curriculars, I also tutored students from the 7th grade in Algebra, Geometry, and general Mathematics all the way up to adult French learners at MTSU. I have addressed various courses in mathematics, Spanish, and French in my tutoring sessions. Currently, I am training with Kaplan to teach pre-college and pre-graduate school testing preparation classes.
I love teaching because it gives me an opportunity to relate to my student/s and best serve their needs. I take the time to know each student so I can best address their learning styles, interests, and challenges in the given subject. I am patient, kind, and will elevate my student's level of motvation and performance.

As a language trainer I am knowledgeable in all-levels of French training and tutoring I've worked professionally for clients of Cartus a global mobility management company. I've also held a position as a Arts and Crafts director and held full responsibility for planning, leading and instructing traditional and multi-cultural Arts & Crafts programs for children, ages 5-15.
I focus on cognitive development (Reading, writing, speech, creativity..) as well as social skills to prepare the child. I like to tap into the three most efficient instructional methods which are visual, physical and verbal when working with children. I have used a lot of visual resources in my past curriculum which have been very successful! I'm very attentive to children's behavior and body language and keep them in consideration throughout my interactions with them. I strive to make learning fun !
