German Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Solana Beach, CA

I love teaching children as well as adults. Having experienced that education can be fun and exciting I am dedicated to motivating students and to assist them to find their individual access to even the driest or most complex material. I believe that a sound education is the best and most valuable gift we can give to children and to adults. As an Attorney at Law licensed in Germany and the US I have been dedicated to excellent academic achievements as well as communicating within both continents and legal systems. I also explored the Healing Arts as well as advanced communication skill by becoming a licensed Holistic Health Professional and Master Practitioner within the field of Neurolinguistic Psychology. As a Court appointed Special Advocate for children and volunteer with "Voices for children" I feel very well equipped to teach adults and children of all backgrounds. I have taugh

I have extensive teaching experience at all levels from my years spent in Germany. I taught at the level of technical colleges (Technische Hochschule Bremen) high school and grade school (Schulzentrum Obervieland). I have exzperience in teaching both a specialized form of language instruction (English for electrical engineers) and general languages. I have found teaching beginners to be extremely rewarding because there is no basis to build on. Everything they can write or say was taught to them by me, and it is extremely gratifying if they feel challenged and motivated to continue to learn the subject I taught them in. As far as teaching languages goes, I believe in immediately beginning in the language and doing all instruction in that language.

Whether I am working with a single student or a classroom full of students, my teaching style focuses on ensuring that my students understand any key work we are doing before moving on. I am a patient teacher, but I do not allow students or tutees to "slack off" or "just get by." I will hold my students' feet to the fire until I am sure that they truly do understand what we are working on, and not that they have just memorized enough to be able to repeat back what they have been told. As a Stanford graduate, I have worked in a variety of capacities teaching students, including as a classroom teacher for English Composition in Africa, as a German tutor for high school students, and as an editor and proofreader for a variety of essay types. I am confident tutoring and advising in a broad spectrum of humanities and liberal arts subjects, including English and other languages, writing, et

I have Bachelor's Degree with Honors in Chemistry from Dartmouth College. My college experience has provided me with a well-rounded education and the skills to tutor a variety of subjects. Throughout high school and college, I have tutored students in various levels of math, chemistry, and writing. I also speak Vietnamese, German, and Spanish. I thoroughly enjoy helping students succeed in academics and achieve their full potential. Not only am I knowledgeable in the subjects I teach, but I am also talented at explaining concepts in a variety of ways until I find one that fits with my student's learning style. Students find my approachable, patient, and positive attitude something that makes me a great tutor who can relate well to those who struggle in school. My goal is to boost their confidence while inspiring a passion for learning, whatever the subject may be.
