German is one of my top subjects! I hold a Master’s degree from a German University and a diploma from a German language high school with all instruction in this language, provided by native German-speaking faculty. I have ten years of work experience teaching German language to children, students, adults and professionals as well as translating and interpreting. I have four years of experience as a distant learning program developer in German language. As a German language specialist and curriculum developer for the National Network of Digital Schools, I developed the German curriculum for all levels for several US cyber schools, including the PA Cyber School. I was responsible for creating, preparing, and uploading the online lessons, assignments, exams, exercises and voice recordings. Furthermore I have ten years of scientific work using exclusively the German language, as well as one year working on various Google projects in German.

My German language curriculum is developed according to the National Standards for Foreign Language Learning. Along with the academic study of the language I apply various communication and interactive assignments. Furthermore I engage the students in conversations on a variety of topics in order to provide and obtain information, express feelings and emotions, and exchange opinions. I develop insight into the nature of language through comparisons between German and English language as well as knowledge and understanding of the the cultures in the German-speaking countries. My goal is to make the German language study a personal enjoyment and enrichment for the students.

Experienced German Tutor in Pittsburgh

I'm a German American who was born and raised in the US, but studied in both countries. I've studied German at the University, completed an intensive language course in Bamberg, and passed the final language examination for university acceptance. I've tutored people before ages ranging from 11-60, and of all different levels.
I like to teach german both by the book and conversationally. I always open up with conversation in every session, and use the book to help guide the lesson.

Hands on, Practice based, through step by step instruction. Visual learning whenever applicable. Geometry, algebra, physics, and some calculus are in my range of teaching. I am very patient as long as the student is trying to learn and cares about the work. Mental support of students is half the battle.
I am comfortable tutoring lower level math classes, mechanical design, or other engineering classes. Writing classes such as English, literature, or fine arts are fine as well. I have a BS in Mechanical and Aerospace engineering from MIZZOU. I am very proficient in technical editing, critiquing papers and writing technical papers.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a private tutor, I give lessons to students whose ages range from thirteen to adult, and whose level varies from beginner to advanced. I teach mostly conversational, and as we progress, I introduce basic grammar. Those who are already taking French in school or in college and need to come up to speed on their current curriculum can also benefit from my tutoring. I work with the textbook and help with the understanding of the lessons through various exercises.
I am a French native and have been living in the Pittsburgh area for 18 years. I have been a French Teacher and private Tutor since 2000. I have been teaching or am currently teaching High School French (Levels 1, 2 and 3), High School Latin (Level 1), and Introduction to Languages. I also have experience in teaching French in Elementary Schools (all grades) and Kindergarten. I have implemented Summer Camps and After ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a high school German exchange student and subsequent German major, I have more than textbook knowledge of the German language. My fluency comes from real-world interactions as well as attending a German high school. I taught courses at the University of Richmond for students of German wishing to practice their language skills, yet whose competency may not have been to the standard for a traditional literature class. Furthermore, I received an International Baccalaureate Diploma with high marks for my high school subjects (concentrations in Music History and Theory, German Language, English Literature, and European History). The IB program is more rigorous than many college programs, and with this experience, I feel that I would be qualified to tutor any student in high school courses.
As a young college graduate, my own school days are not far behind me, and I remember acade ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have experience teaching many types of students. I worked one-on-one, daily, with an autistic student during my last position, so I understand that not every student learns in the same way. I think it works well to give shorter lessons to a small group, and then work individually with the students. I like to encourage them to help one another if they feel confident in the subject. I pay great attention to verifying that each student is following the lesson. My main teaching style is "I do, you do," meaning I show them how to do a problem, or spell a word, and then they show me how. I like to work with the parent and child on any goals they have for the year, while updating the parent and child on progress, problems, and behavior.
I have been working with preschool to high school age students since 2004. I have always had tutoring positions, whether it was for my peers in college, ... read more

More About This Tutor...

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

More About This Tutor...

In addition to my desire to practice law, I have a passion for the education of children. I believe children learn in many different ways and I am not committed to just one teaching style. As someone who developed later in life in terms of academic achievement, I know the importance of patience and passion in the education of children. I believe it is important to communicate without discouraging children. Learning is a process and cannot be rushed or forced upon anyone. I strive to make a difference in the lives of children and I believe I can achieve such a goal by teaching.
As a law school graduate, I am well trained in writing and communication skills. While in law school I was awarded a position on the legal journal of Health Matrix: Journal of Law-Medicine. My duties as a member of the executive board were to manage the staff and tutor the other editors in writing ski ... read more

From high school to graduate school I have enjoyed being a scholar of many disciplines. In the last year, I took it upon myself to take what I know and teach it to young enthusiastic scholars, and it has been immensely rewarding. I only have a years worth of experience in tutoring mathematics, but I have tutored students in courses as advanced as Analytic Geometry and Calculus III to early college-level courses such as College Algebra.
I have enjoyed tutoring math students who are advanced learners and students who are beginning their study of college-level math. No matter their capability, each student's success is very important to me. I have often met with students outside of tutoring sessions to explain a problem, and had e-mail conversations with several students to ensure they're understanding material. In tutoring sessions, I like making sure each student is actively pa ... read more
