My comments on tutoring French : I studied French for two years at the University and although I never lived in a French-speaking country, have acquired a great deal of experience in language. I am competent at teaching at beginner to intermediate levels. Of course grammar is important, but the main goal can be to help students understand and be understood. In addition, learning a language should be fun!

In the past 30 years, languages have been my passion. I have worked as a teacher, proofreader/editor, and also as a translator. I have taught everything from classes to private lessons, children to senior citizens with success and enthusiasm. I always try to find out what my students love, and start working from this to help them achieve their goals.
Although grammar is important, languages are acquired overwhelmingly by listening (60%) and speaking (30%), whereas only 5% each by reading and writing. I view myself more as a coach than a "teacher", using a modern didactic method also known as accelerated learning. Learning should be fun, otherwise, something is not right, and I always try to find out what that "something" is.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching children. I enjoy getting to know how each child thinks and works, and finding the best way to teach them in a way that is meaningful and gratifying. My approach is usually very methodical, and I believe a strong foundation allows for a deep and thorough understanding of the subject at hand. I consider my working relationship with my students to be a team effort, one that requires their input and communication as well as my own. It is very gratifying for me to help my students begin to realize their own potential, and to help them learn to cultivate that in a way that reaches far beyond any one subject. In that way, I believe I am able to make the most useful difference for all of my students.

A Little Bit About Me...

I learned how to be an excellent teacher from one of the best Universities in Belarus. Studying a foreign language has the potential to be an exciting learning experience, opportunity for growth and self-discovery. Acquiring a foreign language is a unique opportunity to develop meaningful connections with other cultures and individuals. It enhances personal and professional growth. When teaching French I individualize my lesson plans to make learning exciting and relevant for my students, and I tailor my lesson plans and exercises to fit their unique interests, and combine a fun and disciplined approach that helps students succeed.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a French native speaking who loves to share knowledge. I worked over 10 years in financial institution, training, coaching in French and English, focusing in customer service satisfaction. I teach because I know Education changes people’s lives. My students know me for being dedicated, going the extra mile in order to exceed customer’s expectations. By the time they leave my classroom at the end of the year, they can barely remember their weaknesses and all they do is to brag about their new and improved skills.
I teach French with passion, hoping my students will fall in love with that language the same way I did. How do I do that? I teach by examples. I go beyond the textbook and teach French culture to my students, helping them reading, talking, communicating the same way French people do. I am detailed oriented and I know all starts by making the first ste ... read more

I have a BA in International Studies and I have taken political science and English writing classes which improved my writing and critical skills and made me more proficient in grammar as well. I've also taken a Business translation class at Towson University and French is my native language so I do read, write and speak it fluently. I've taught French independently to high school students for a year while I was in college in Maryland.
I do enjoy dealing with young children ranging from middle school to high school and college students. I am very understanding, motivated and have great listening and interpersonal skills. I am a humanist and I would like to make a difference in this world and improve children's lives and make them realize that they can accomplish anything in life if they put their mind to it. I am looking for a new challenge and believe that teaching would be a rewa ... read more

I love people in general and am very patient. My goal is to help my students have a grasp of the grammatical rules so they can be able to study and review on their own. My tutoring sessions are fun and educational. I love teaching French to any age group and see them attain their goal.
As a native speaker, I have been using the French language since I was a child. I used the language in a working environment where French was the main language. I had tutored US government employees who needed assistance to pass their foreign language exam. I have experience translating documents for International organizations from English to French.

I always tailor lessons to students’ level and interests. For example if a student is interested in cooking I will talk about the cuisine of France and terms too use when talking about preparing meals. I like to use drama techniques to facilitate learning as it helps to the student to feel comfortable in situations they would encounter when they are traveling using the foreign language. I like to make the lessons as fun as possible which makes learning the language enjoyable.
I have instructed beginning, intermediate, and advanced French and English language and literature to adults and children from diverse backgrounds. I am currently teaching French at Baltimore County Community College. I have also instructed French at Towson University and the Alliance Francaise in New York.
