My teaching style is aimed at making the child feel good and happy with learning. Often children need tutoring in subjects that frustrate them, they miss one aspect and while they're spending time on that in class the teacher blazes past them adding more confusion.

I gear everything as a game or story to create excitement in a subject that would normally earn groans. I want your child to feel proud of what they do know already, and use that happiness to fuel further learning. I have always had an interest in tutoring, starting in Elementary school where I would leave during recess in the fourth and fifth grade to spend time in my past Kindergarten teacher's classroom. There I would read to students, reinforce the teachings lead by the teac

As a teacher, I try to empower my students to take responsibility for their actions and for their learning results. I try to lead them and to show them how and where to find the answers, but feel they learn best when they take the final step in the learning process and discover the answers with my guidance. The results are that they acquire not only knowledge, but the ability to process information and to solve problems. I am trained in teaching individuals with differences in learning styles, as well as in teaching English learners. I speak fluent French, am proficient in Spanish and Italian, and am passionate about French/France and English literature. I share this passion with my students. I have experience teaching French and English at the high school level at a private/Catholic high school in Ventura County. I have held this full-time teaching position for 2 years. Prio
