A Little Bit About Me...

Being a disciple of the late French philosopher Jean Jacques Rousseau, all the focus ought to be on the learner. No Atlas complex; the tutor, instructor, teacher must serve as a tool for the learner to reach it ultimate goal: blossom as a knowledge seeker; therefore, flexibility, openess, willingness to try anything, everything to get the learner attention, focus, and pleasure to learn. NO CONSTRAINT IN LEARNING!
As an ABD in French( I am writing now my dissertation), I can say with the utmost confidence that French Language has no secret for me. Coming from a family of teachers and scholars, the role-model always have been, for us growing up, teachers and professors. Having taught ant tutored all my life, my presence in the classroom lit kids faces, and create a rare atmosphere for interacting, learning, and discovering the pleasure of knowing and sharing.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that all children learn best when they experience success. Therefore, I make sure to give all my students opportunities to succeed by asking questions that challenge students to think but are not impossible to answer. My teaching style involves a combination of constructivism and direct instruction. Instead of lecturing, I pose questions, calling on students randomly. When I restate what is correct about a student's answer, my students understand that they have successfully contributed to the learning process. I point out any misconceptions that might arise before they do, so my students avoid making common mistakes. I supplement my lessons with visual representations and videos for visual learners, as well as hands-on, inquiry-based activities for tactile learners. I have extensive experience using technology in the classroom and have designed many interesting laborator ... read more
