French Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in East Syracuse, NY

Thomas Steinfeld Teaching Philosophy I have always had a passion for teaching French, but I must say that I consider myself a student of French as well as a teacher: we never stop learning. Furthermore, I consider myself a conduit; a guide to help my students move from one level of French to the next, while instilling in them a desire to use as many resources as possible outside of the classroom. Keeping students motivated and engaged is key. In my classroom, I always put the chairs in a semi-circle, so that every student is able to see and hear all of the others. I also believe in personalizing my lessons as much as possible. When students have a chance to talk about their own interests and beliefs, their families, friends, etc., they are much more motivated to use the target language and increase their vocabulary. I am also a firm believer in using humor as much as possible. Thi

Throughout my academic experiences I have had numerous opportunities to share my knowledge with each one helping me develop a toolset of an efficient educator. One of my first teaching experiences was in my home country, Belarus, when I have taught and tutored English at the Minsk State linguistic University for 4 years. During that time I have practiced my organizational and educational skills working at a children`s activities center as a counselor. Also I have gone through continuous pedagogical practice which included giving individual English lessons as well as teaching English in class. I learned how to organize a safe leaning environment, welcome a student`s individuality, how to encourage and interest students to participate in the process of learning using different teaching techniques.While I was working on my Associate Degree in Bellevue College I worked as a tutor of Fren

My method is very student-centered: learn the student's interests, strengths, weaknesses, and needs, and the way to properly teach them anything will be clear as day. I believe very strongly that people best digest knowledge when it's delivered to them "in their own language," and in ways that they can easily identify cognitively. I also bring in a very patient, nurturing, and encouraging attitude that allows for even frustrating subjects to be learned at a sound and progressive pace without extreme amounts of stress or pressure. Nothing makes a difference in a child's life like education, and I plan on giving the best that I can! As a recent graduate of Le Moyne College with stellar grades, I have achieved a truly remarkable level of education. Though I have only earned a BA in Psychology, I have a very comprehensive knowledge of English literature, composition, history, French, and

My teaching style is parallel to my learning style. I appreciate explanations that are thorough and tailored to my interests. I've learned that concepts and ideas are easier to understand if they refer back to something I can relate to. I aspire to become someone a child can look up to, as well as understand. I want them to be comfortable coming to me with any questions they may have. During my sophomore year as an undergraduate at the University of Florida, I spent my spare time tutoring/mentoring a third grade student at a local Gainesville elementary school. We spent ample time going over reading and math assignments. I also career mentored eighth grade students in the Richland County School District in Columbia, SC. I have learned strong writing and basic mathematical skills at my current position as a media planner.

Understanding each student's learning style is key to providing quality instruction. My background in assessment helps me determine baseline data for each student so that I can track progress toward agreed-upon goals and objectives. I firmly believe that students must be shown good models and that clear directions which clarify their misunderstandings helps them become competent with necessary skills and processes. Parents of students I have taught often expressed appreciation for knowing how their children learned and focusing instruction in that manner. With my wide experience at the elementary, college, and adult levels along with my work with English Language Learners, I know that I can provide a quality teaching style that will support a student working toward established goals.

While attending Syracuse University I tutored classmates in both philosophy and English, emphasizing writing and analytical skills while suggesting strategies for breaking down and understanding the difficult language of critical and philosophical texts. Furthermore, I helped students learn and understand effective editing both for content and grammar to improve their argumentation skills for essays and presentations. In addition to tutoring college students, I tutor my five nieces and nephews (informally) who range in age from four years old to thirteen years old. I currently hold a Dual Degree from Syracuse University having graduated Magna Cum Laude. While I do explain procedures as thoroughly as I am able, I attempt to have students flesh out their ideas through their own process. It is my belief that the student must learn to accomplish things independently in order to be su
