I have two years of experience teaching undergraduate French classes at Michigan State University where I also tutored several students including some with learning disabilities. I also tutored for a semester while I was at Grand Valley. I spent 3 summers teaching Arabic to children in Grand Rapids as well. So I have experience working with all ages.
Ask the student what they feel they need to work on. Provide lot's of examples. Give them opportunities to try to do the work themselves. Show them what they did right and what they did wrong. Explain why it is wrong. Try again.

love to teach

I look for students to build their own answers through logical and intuitive reasoning based on my feedback. If the student truly struggles, I basically breakdown the subject matter into blocks and demonstrate it in a logical fashion. Most of the time, I believe the student needs to learn how to learn. The subject matter is rarely the issue, just the least it mechanisms.
I am fluent in both French and English. I hold a bachelor's degree in economics and finance from Union University 2002 and an MBA from Palm Beach Atlantic University 2012. I have coached and tutored students athletes and regular students in high school and college. I work through building a system of excellence in learning that fits the individual.

Strategies + Effort = Success

A Little Bit About Me...

I've had three years of high school French as well as two years of college French. I'm currently attending university working towards a BA in French-Linguistics.Last year, I was fortunate enough to live just two mile from the Canadian border and was able to spend much time in Canada (where everything is 50% French). As well as studying in college, I do independent study as well to keep me progressing beyond the classroom.

I love the give and take of interaction with students. My approach is learner-centered, which means that I see each student as an individual and strive to tailor our instructional exchange to meet the needs of each person. I believe that teaching is dialogic; it is through dialogue that instructors and students together engage in the exploration process that leads to learning. I do not ascribe to the "open head, pour in facts" approach to teaching. Rather, I seek to facilitate problem solving, critical thinking, data gathering, and logical analysis that extends the student's knowledge, but more importantly teaches them to learn how to learn.
I began my career as a high school teacher teaching grades 9-12. My engagement with students at this level was highly satisfying; I loved teaching this age group speech and drama courses. After that I spent several years in a FT profession ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I know that students can work and achieve if the right kind of motivation is given. Each child has their own learning style and interest which needs to be taken into consideration when working with thenm and then to be taught in that mode and style. My goal for the student is to learn through motivation when the interest is used in the lessons which will then enable the student to relate the lesson to their world. I am a firm believer that it is the choices that the student makes that makes success or failure and to take responsibility for these choices. It is modeling and team that makes success for the child.
I have earned a BA from Calvin College which has certified me to teach at the k-8 levels in social studies and liberal arts and have earned a Masters degree in Counseling Education (certified K-12)which has given me the ability to work wtih students who are difficult t ... read more

Everyone learns through seeing, demonstrations, examples, and practicing. If one demonstration or examples won't work, a second or third demonstration or example is needed and it may have to demonstrate differently. I'm very patient when it comes to teaching. I'm good at being creative about finding ways to teach someone so that he or she can understand.
Everything starts out with passion. My passion is to help others when they are in need. When it comes to math and other subjects, I'm very capable. I graduated high school as a Salutorian and graduated college with a Magna Cum Laude.

I specialize in language, with instruction in English, Spanish, and French. I have a passion for bringing out the best in each student. I teach ESL to speakers whose primary language is not English, by emphasizing practical speaking exercises and encouraging the timid with humor! I am passionate about language learning of all kinds; English, French, and Spanish, studying French and Spanish in college. I share this enthusiasm with my students, with great results. I believe the most important part in students being good speakers, I believe, is developing a genuine foreign accent. As an extensive traveler in Europe and Latin America, I have developed effective techniques to lead students to correct pronunciation.
My basic belief is that as human beings, we all share the goal of being understood. This may sound rather simple, but it is basic to my philosophy. I work to ensure that eac ... read more
