Hate busywork? Me too! Why not make it MATTER?!

I began my teaching career even before graduating High School. I started volunteering my time with homework help and study skills at the local Boys and Girls Club when I was 16 followed by teaching Remedial English to a small group of ELL students at a partnering elementary school. During college, I continued my passion by joining an organization that teaches life and social skills to developmentally delayed young adults. After graduating from SFSU, I persued my TEFL certification which allowed me to live and teach in China for 6 months, while developing fun an innovative curriculum that allowed young students to start acquiring English skills from scratchet. Since then, I have continued designing hands-on curriculum for English, Literature, Science, Math, Dance, Visual Arts, Life Skills, and College Prep. I have also been a manager, coordinator, coach, and director at several after ... read more

Make school work.

Not all students are successful and the trick is to identify the reasons behind the lack of success. The issues that students have with school are diverse; procrastination, lack of organization, failure to plan, lack of awareness, ineffective habits, learning disabilities, and differences are all possible explanations for school failure. I work with students one on one to help them pinpoint where things break down for them and then work with them to find strategies to help them manage the skills and material they are asked to learn and master. I am there to guide, not just instruct.
I have been in education for 16 years. I specialize in working with students with ADD/ADHD, specific learning disabilities as well as students who underachieve. I have a Master's Degree in Special Education and have successfully worked with students all over the Bay Area to help them realize their ... read more

USC Graduate Offering SAT/ACT/College App/K-12 Tutoring

I really pride myself in personalizing my tutoring. I try to never have more than 6-7 students at a time so that I can provide the best possible personalization of teaching to each student. Additionally, being at a similar age to many of my students helps me relate to them a lot better than some older tutors may be able to; I have more recent experience with taking the same courses/tests as them or applying to colleges like them, and this helps a lot in my tutoring personalization. In terms of my teaching style, I love being able to connect with students beyond the structured environment of most classrooms and tutoring/prep academies. I try to provide my students with just enough structure so that they know how to study, how to test, etc., but enough autonomy so that they can learn how to succeed on their own. Helping students navigate this fine line is really meaningful, as many ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Whether the lesson is necessary for academic requirements or for leisure, I have always enjoyed passing my knowledge of the French language and culture to others, adapting my lessons to the level required by the student(s). Not everybody can flourish at the same pace; therefore my patience is an added bonus. I place emphasis on areas that most meet the student need, be it speaking, writing or grammar, and in some cases, culture. I have taught French at exam level as well as casual conversational level. An important part of any first lesson is to assess student need.
I am French born and educated, with an MA in English from the Institut Catholique de Paris. Married to an Englishman, with two grown-up daughters, I have lived in California for the past 13 years, prior to which we lived in the UK. My experience includes work for the language department of Cricklade College, Andover, UK ... read more
