More About This Tutor...

I believe that students shouldn't feel like they have only one method to resolve some situations. It is important that the teacher let students know that there are multiple ways to resolve problems. I believe that students should be urged to think critically because having ideas is better than collecting facts. Learning how do things is better that following prescribed ideas. I will encourage students to construct meaningful ideas. It is important for me to consolidate a self-confident of my student and evoke their passion for use of language. Excitement is the central key that makes works easy for people.

My comments on tutoring French : I learned French in France, where I lived for three years. I attended school in French for 3 years and am fluent. Excellent speaking and writing skills. Would be able to tutor students for French classes or seeking to take the SAT II (personal score: 800), as well as those seeking to learn French for personal reasons.

Interactive teaching style tailored to individual needs. Prefer to make use of a variety of activities and media (news broadcasts, audio recordings, conversation, written work, etc.) in order to develop multi-faceted linguistic ability.
I am a recent college graduate (Columbia University 2012). My experience is in languages, having studied French for 3 years and Arabic for 4 years. I have lived in both French and Arabic-speaking countries and continue to make use of French in a professional setting. I have participated in both group and one-on-one language-learning settings, and have facilitated small-group learning sessions for 3 years. I am also capable of conducting one-on-one tutoring sessions.

French is one of my top subjects! BA in French Full immersion experience abroad

I have worked as an English tutor for elementary Egyptian students attending a summer program. I have been working as a student athlete tutor for French and the honors program for the past 2 years with varying levels of frequency. I have mainly worked with one athlete who is studying French. I also worked with a Brazilian immigrant for a short time working to improve his English. I have studied ESL teaching (experience above). I have 4 years unpaid experience as a children's ministry coordinator and instructor. I planned lessons and taught children ages 2-12. I have studied math up to the AP Calculus level with minor tutoring experience.

My comments on tutoring French : Fluent in French. Spoken, read, and learned French for almost 16 years. From a French speaking country

I have spoken, read and learn French for over 16 years. I can say that I have enough experience to be able to tutor or teach French. I lived in Madagascar where we speak French at age 3. I finished my high school year there. I came here in the United States in 2008 to get my Bachelor's degree. I took French Literature classes while in college.

Very personal and tailored to the student. I have many suggestions about content and process of learning, but ultimately I want to give my students what THEY want and do what works best for them!
I have taught SAT prep courses for Kaplan Inc. since December 2012 and done a good deal of informal tutoring in Philosophy and French. I have a Bachelor's degree in Philosophy with a concentration in Neuroscience, and I also studied French for 7 years, including a semester in a language immersion program in the south of France (Aix-en-Provence), where I became fluent.

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.

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 !
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 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

A Little Bit About Me...

Teaching has always come naturally to me. As a young teenager, I began helping younger siblings and neighborhood kids with their homework. As a mental health professional on an Adolescent Psychiatric Unit, I discovered that educating patients was far more empowering than implementing conventional Rogerian counseling techniques. In 1998 I began designing/facilitating classes on impulse control, assertiveness, and anger management. Ever since I have been teaching in alternative settings.
I firmly believe that teaching is about making meaningful connections that empower others. Therefore, I always try to first establish a comfortable rapport that is conducive to open communication. I then will determine the student's strengths/weaknesses and areas of highest interest. This allows me to develop individualized lessons that will be highly engaging and most effective at meeting the ... 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 have taught 5th and 6th grade ESL students for this semester, and I have taught English two summers in Korea at intensive English immersion camps. I have also tutored adult and college level students in English at UT while obtaining my degree and enjoyed it the most. Having quality one on one or small group time is the best for students to acquire the knowledge they need, and have instructors that can focus on their individual needs. Not only did I tutor students, but I also helped colleagues whose first language was not English with assignments and my college roommate who was from Taiwan. I enjoy writing and enjoy helping others express themselves in writing. I would love to continue helping others and become a tutor.
People have all different manners of learning information, and most people need a lot of visuals and real life experiences, especially if their first language is n ... read more

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 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.

More About This Tutor...

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
