German is one of my top subjects! I have received a B.A. in German Language from Mercer University in Macon, GA. I have spent time abroad in the host country during the summer.

I am a "kid-at-heart" who has a passion for helping other learn and succeed. I enjoy foreign languages and I want to share my enthusiasm with others. By traveling often, I remain enthusiastic about the subjects I study. Over the past 4 years especially, I have spent many weeks in Germany and France and have fallen in love with the people and their culture. I enjoy finding short stories and comics that help others better understand and learn the language. I also have many supplies from abroad, such as books and DVDs. If I did not major in foreign languages, I would have also enjoyed getting my degree in math education. I like math because I find security in knowing that there is always a right answer. I myself have a teachable spirit and enjoy learning from anyone as well.

German is one of my top subjects! I am a native speaker of the German language and graduated from a German university with a minor in German/German Literature

I graduated from a German university in 2011 and have lived in the USA since November the same year, teaching my husband, his family and friends German. I love languages and enjoy helping people improve their skills. During my studies at the university I tutored several Americans with whom I am still in touch, refreshing their knowledge periodically. Whether your child needs support for German classes at school, whether you just came to the States and feel the need to improve your English, or you just enjoy languages as much as I do and want to learn it just for fun - I am more than happy to assist! Just contact me and we will make an appointment in a timely manner to get you started soon!

A Little Bit About Me...

I have teached german in romania. I have finished modern applied languages german and french. I have a teachers licence for these langauages. I am open to new students and people. Personal training in german for children as well as ealder people was a freetime activity in my homecountry. I teached german in a school in Sibiu Romania. Working with children has always made fun and coming from a different country is a plus for me aswell as the ones who want to learn german french and perhaps romanian with me.

Assuming that most students would rather be anywhere than an English class, I listen to their interests of the moment and then relate them to my goals. I explore their previous knowledge and build on that, avoiding either boring them or talking over their heads. I listen, we laugh, and then I reel them in, constantly showing them how my goals are relevant to their ultimate desires. Fast, if not immediate, feedback is essential to keeping students motivated, as is elaborate explanation of why they scored what they score. Therefore, students see themselves as in control of their own learning, with a benevolent and knowledgeable mentor easing them along.
I have taught English to students at levels from seventh graders through college freshmen. My M.A. in English Literature equipped me to inspire both eager and reluctant students to write and read with confidence and capability. As a r ... read more

While completing my undergraduate degree in Chemical Engineering at University of Idaho, I was often called upon to tutor people within the building where I lived during college. I also was employed by the University to grade papers and offer assistance to underclassmen in the Chemical Engineering department. From this experience, I have gained both the knowledge in math and science and the understanding of how to use different approaches with different people to deliver the lesson. I have tutored in English, math and science.
I believe learning is about confidence. I have seen numerous students doing poorly in courses because they were convinced that they were not capable of learning the subject matter. Small successes help to build confidence in order to move on to the subsequent challenges. I believe in starting with the basics, and making sure that the students truly gras ... read more
