I greatly enjoy helping students come to the “Aha” moments of understanding. Almost nothing gives me greater joy than seeing a student’s eyes light up as he or she makes connections between new and old information. I am very empathetic when a student feels blocked in his or her progress and work hard to find the element that will unblock the learning process. I am easy going and have a good sense of humor, while at the same time I am able to see educational objectives and focus on getting there. I think that every student can learn if they are given the right encouragement and skills. I do my best to do that for my students. As an American kid who grew up outside of the US, I am a lifelong student of language and culture. Because of my studies in French and since I lived 14 years in France, I have near-native mastery of the language and understand the culture intimately. I have ta

A long-time resident of Morocco, I taught English as a Foreign Language at all levels, from Beginning to Advanced, in a public high school, a vocational college, and a private language institute. I also tutored students of all backgrounds from semi-literate adults to high school students and well-educated university students and business people. I am also fluent in French, having lived and studied in France and French-speaking Morocco for many years. I sincerely enjoy one-on-one tutoring and find that I am able to assess the needs of my students, whether these be fulfilling the requirements of a school curriculum or communication for business or personal purposes. I can adapt to their individual learning style amd help them achieve their potential. My goal when tutoring is to enable the students to continue and obtain satisfactory results on their own.

As the only member of my immediate family to attain a college degree, I have always placed an emphasis on education in my life. I possess a BA in Politics and Government with a minor in French, which have honed my skills and understanding of communication, reading, and writing in both English and French. I have studied the French language for nearly a decade and earned the Albert Camus French language certificate with honors from the University of Paris (La Sorbonne) during my five month stay in Paris, France. I have experience working with and tutoring elementary-college aged students in reading, writing, and French. I thoroughly enjoy teaching and working with students from all walks of life.

Throughout my education, I've found that broad academic interests have led me to pursue a wide range of subjects simultaneously. My undergraduate degree is a double major in music and comparative religion, and my other coursework ranged from astronomy to constitutional law. I recognize with gratitude the manifold opportunities that were available to me, but the most important piece was taking ownership of my own education. Though working on a wide scope of subjects had its challenges, I knew that I needed to follow all my interests instead of suppress them, and only then I would find the energy and focus to succeed. I strongly believe that an education that leads with concepts instead of rote is the surest route to lifelong success. This is certainly the method that worked for me, and I find that, without the conceptual grounding, a student will not get as much out of necessary practice

I love being able to make learning fun and exciting. I believe the key to being able to acquire a second language, develop reading skills, or improve artistic abilities, is to find the reasons why it's interesting to the individual student. Art, literature, and French language are my greatest passions. I am patient, flexible, and enthusiastic. My hope is that I can encourage my students to be excited about learning and become a person who seeks knowledge. After I received my BA in French, with a minor in Teaching English as a Second Language, I worked for the Institute of Reading Development to teach reading comprehension, skills, and appreciation. In the fall of 2005, I moved to France for two years where I taught English in elementary schools in Montauban, as well as in a middle school and high school in Mirande. Upon returning to the United States, I taught French for two years for Mi

My love of reading and writing has led me to excel in 2 languages. An English major at Carleton College, I mastered the art of putting thoughts on paper to persuade, compare, or explicate; as well as how to read for meaning. Later at the Sorbonne in Paris, I transferred these talents to French. I have since taught and tutored reading, writing, and speaking in both languages in the U.S. and abroad. My teaching style is active and enthusiastic. I show students clues and shortcuts in all sorts of subjects so that learning can be fun and even easy. I am tolerant and patient, while at the same time I request diligence and assiduousness. I revel in the success of my students, thanks to their efforts and hard work.

My four years at Willamette University taught me to think critically and communicate well. I was expected to have an outstanding level of written communication skills and I honed these skills throughout my education, especially while researching and writing my senior thesis. I have excellent grammatical and verbal skills and a deep love of language and all things foreign. My International Studies major allowed to me to study a broad range of subjects including history, politics and economics as well as studying French for four years. I would be comfortable tutoring students in any humanities courses including but not limited to English, French and European, World and American history. I am enthusiastic and encouraging and I believe that a positive attitude and self-confidence can get you anywhere. When working with students and children I try to create a positive, encouraging, relaxed le
