My comments on tutoring French : French is my second language that is required to study for all academic years from kindergarten till college

Teaching for me is a sort of a key that we give to learners. with this key they open the gates of knowledge and imbibe all fields of wisdon and philosophy. I believe teaching is a big responsibility that we are burdened with.
As any student who was looking at the future with optimistic vision, I gave all my attention to reach highest degrees of studies. I have gotten a BA in english literature which enabled me to get open to knowledge about all what concerns various subjects, be it linguistics, grammar, composition. these are essential tools that helped in shaping the style and the know-how-to-write. then i got an MBA at JWU. i tutored students in english especially students exhibiting difficulties in english.

A Little Bit About Me...

Being a mother of three adult children and a new grandmother, I adore children. Teaching Sunday School over many years has also brought me great joy. I also personally relate to a child's individual method of learning because I truly believe we all learn differently. There are no stupid or dumb children, only unique minds. Being patient, kind, and encouraging are only a few of my strengths, and I believe I can help any child reach their potential, even when they do not.
I have two adult children who have had learning disabilities while growing up, and fully understand a parent's frustration in encouraging their child over these particular hurdles. I have a BS in Business Administration and achieved my degree over the period of nine years while working and raising my family. In addition, I have volunteered as a Sunday School teacher over a thirty year period, teaching ages 2-12 ... read more

My philosophy is that education should be as individualized as possible because people do not learn in the same manner. For instance, some people are visual learners while others, like myself, are auditory learners. I strongly believe that educators should expose their students to as many fields and ideas as possible. For instance, when I am teaching, I prefer to instruct students on different topics- biology, culture and rules of the English language are particular favorites of mine. I also like to give ideas and explanations that are different than my own (when teaching abstract concepts, of course) so that students can formulate their own opinions.
I have recently graduated from Roger Williams University in Bristol, Rhode Island. While attending university, I studied various courses- natural science, social science, criminal justice, biology- but my true passion lies in foreign ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Education is invaluable and needs to be made accessible to all students. My goal as a teacher is to create an excellent environment for learning, providing the student an opportunity to excel in his/her studies. My prior teaching experiences have taught me the importance of organization, patience and using varied teaching methods to reach students with different learning strengths. I will provide your child with individual attention, customized session plans, encouragement and positive reinforcement to reach the personalized learning goals that we will set together. My hope is that while learning required material, each student will realize his/her personal abilities, gain confidence and increase his/her appreciation for education.
In the nine years of my graduate and undergraduate education, I have been a teacher, tutor and mentor. As an undergraduate, I was the math and scie ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have always loved teaching. I truly believe that everyone deserves a chance to learn at their own speed and capacity. I am extremely patient, easy going, dependable and very caring. While I was employed at the Hebron Senior Center, I taught our senior members French. The Center did not have a curriculum so I created one. I started with the alphabet, and then taught them greetings, introductions and French songs. In doing so, we interacted with all subjects learned; examples: pronunciations and spelling were fully discussed and used. I would like to be the one who will make a difference in all of my students’lives.
During the last eight years of my employment in the insurance industry, I trained co-workers into medical bill repricing, as back-up to my position. It was very important to have coverage as I was the only medical bill repricing processor in the Northeast Regio ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My study of language has always been linked to teaching, beginning at Pennsylvania State University, where I earned 2 Bachelor's degrees in French and Italian. It was there that I began tutoring students privately, and as a contracted NCAA athlete tutor. I earned a 3.8 GPA, and a 4.0 equivalent GPA while studying abroad in Paris in 2005. Upon my return to the states, I matriculated into an MA/PhD program at Boston University. There, too, the art of educating was a central focus for me; the university even hired me as an adjunct to teach French language courses. I have since acquired my MA teaching license and work full-time in the Northbridge, MA school district, teaching high school French levels 1-4 at both the Honors and CP levels.
I pride myself in my ability to customize learning for every child. My class sizes at the university and in the high school range from 10 to 30 stude ... read more

I received a B. A. degree in French with a minor in English. I have tutored two ESL students, one from Mexico and the other from Turkey through Literacy Volunteers of America. My teaching focused on pronunciation, reading, spelling and both students completed short story projects for the LVA yearly publication. I am fluent in English and French and understand how difficult it is to understand the subtleties of a language. I have worked as a translator for English/French. I am also certified as a Freelance Writer. I worked as a test script writer for software programs. Language is communication and it is important to be able to communicate effectively.

I love working with numbers and figuring out solutions to challenging problems. Earning my degree in Computer Science has allowed me to do both of these as well as provide me with extensive knowledge about computers. It has allowed me to enhance my skills in both math and science. Since high school I have tutored students in basic math, Pre-Algebra and Algebra, Pre-calc and Calculus, Geometry. Chemistry, and other non-mathematical related subjects. I also have a solid background in Latin and French as I have studied both throughout my high school career and minored in French language in college.
For as long as I can remember I have always loved to teach. I enjoy helping others learn new material as well as gain from them ways to cope with different learning styles and comprehension levels. I have experience with all age groups from 6-7 yrs to 18+ yrs. I exercise patience and unders ... read more
