German Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Montgomery, TX

I speak with native fluency and a near perfect accent. In addition to the last four years of teaching high school German, while doing research in Germany and Austria for my PhD dissertation, I worked as a tutor for the Berlitz language company and as a translator of business documents from German into English. In this capacity, I tutored both individual students at their homes or businesses and small groups of students in the language center classrooms. I easily fit a tutoring curricula to each individual student's particular areas of interest. Communication is the paramount goal, so even though grammar is a bit of specialty of mine (Latin, Spanish, French, Italian, Dutch, etc.) I prioritize coaching the ability to exchange information and ideas clearly over any major focus on the finer points of German grammar...of which there are many. I generally find that tutoring students do be

I have always had a fascination with the past; as a child I read book after book on dinosaurs and as an adult I studied and received a BA in History with a minor in Political Science. Through my years of schooling I have developed not only my writing skills but my skills in foreign language. After studying German in high school and living abroad in Germany for a month, I studied German in college and now read German stories alongside my history books in my spare time. Every child can learn but since everyone is different, a different approach is needed to ensure the information and abstract concepts are fully understood. Auditory learners like myself would learn best from an entertaining lecture followed by auditory questions designed for the learner to discover for him or herself what it is they were looking for with myself as a guide. Visual learners would learn best by a movie or r

I have a holistic approach that goes beyond just helping a person with homework or test prep. I like to combine tutoring and coaching services. 1. Often students hire a tutor after they are falling behind in school. The first goal is to develop a plan of action and get the student back on track. This helps with relieving stress and feeling overwhelmed. 2. Develop learning skills and strategies for taking tests, memory recall and linking concepts. There is no ones size fits all and must be tailored to the individual. 3. Building confidence in student's learning abilities is critical! 4. The ultimate goal is empowering the student to become an independent learner. I have a special interest in ESL students, having myself experienced what it is like as a child to be immersed in a foreign culture and school without speaking the language. As an adult, I also understand how cr

I am a current graduate student in the field of Public Health and policies. I have graduated with a bachelor in public administration, both of these majors allowed me to have a clear understanding on the different techniques required to write a good essay. The diversity in each professor that I have had also allowed me to get familiar with diverse writing techniques and reading techniques. My classes also allowed me to be better acquainted with the world of public speaking and how to make it efficient. My associate degree in science gave me insights on math and science to a certain level. I have been a mentor before and I am currently doing volunteer work that allows me to use these skills to help middle school and High school kids. I believe it is important to determine what kind of learner each kid is (visual, auditory, and hands-on). This allows me to figure out a way to effectively t
