A Little Bit About Me...

A dedicated, organized and professional yet flexible educator with several years experience in teaching French, I believe that motivating students is the most important factor for the teaching/learning experience. My experience tells me that if students are not actively participating in class, they are not learning. Therefore, I believe that students must be active learners. My job as an educator is to guide them in their learning process, to learn about their learning styles and teach them in a personalized manner to the extent possible, to entice their curiosity and interest to learn more. Furthermore, I insist on the memorization by repetition by using mnemonic tricks, flash cards, reviews.

A Little Bit About Me...

Open and flexible.Rule #1 is to listen to the student. Rule #2 is to teach the other the way I would want to be taught. My preference in teaching is to first teach the student the practical side of things. Can the student perform the basic calculations for example so as to pass the exam. Once the student has developed a "gut level understanding", then I can move onto the more theoretical understanding of the topic, depending of course on where the student is at. I try to make math relevant to life for math is a metaphor.
My formal background is in mathematics and statistics. I have been a computer programmer since 1984 for companies including Intel and Motorola. I am a devout reader in a wide swath of topics and authors. My yearning has been to mix scientific exploration while performing a social good.
