My comments on tutoring German : After learning German all through grade and highschool I then spent a semester in Freiburg, Germany where I breathed, ate and slept all things German. Since then I have been back several times and continue my passion for the language and culture.

I have always had a strong passion for languages and perhaps because of this have done extensive traveling. I have lived in several countries and speak several languages. In my adventures I have found time and again that the easiest, most effortless and fastest way to learn a language is to immerse oneself in that culture. Why? Because it is not enough to remember that "arrivederci" translates to "goodbye." Rather, to really know the inside of a language one must also know and understand its people and the culture it comes from.
I truly believe conversation is the best way to learn a new language. There are many people who study grammer and vocabulary on paper for years, but when they are finally put in a real situation in which they are required to speak the language, all of their training fails them because they never did the most basic and important thing, which is to practice m ... read more

German (Deutsch fuer alle)

I believe that understanding the learning style of a child or an adult can provide a map to success and a key way to avoid frustration. Each person seems to have his or her particular blend of techniques for mastering educational subject matter. My students learn in many ways—by seeing and hearing; reflecting and acting; reasoning logically and intuitively; memorizing and visualizing. Therefore, my teaching methods also vary. That is why I always try to organize learning style models based on an individual's predisposition.
I am a graduate of the University of Warsaw located in Poland, where I earned a master’s degree in German with a specialization in teaching as German second/foreign language. I spent many years in Germany improving my German and later teaching it. I have been teaching for four years in many settings such as schools, tutoring and church based curriculum.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a Bachelor of Arts in German from University of Missouri and have studied German for 12 years. I lived and worked in Germany for a full year, which helped me reach a level of fluency in the language. During my year there, I tutored young adults in German once a week. Although I am not a native speaker, I have become very familiar with German and continue to expand my vocabulary with regular reading and practice. I am always eager to converse in German and enjoy teaching others through conversation.

More About This Tutor...

The advantage of one-on-one tutoring is the productive, personal relationship that arises between tutor and student. As a tutor, I use this relationship to make lessons more fun and more significant. Rather than providing a mundane and meaningless list of facts, I explain the significance of the material by linking specific principles to larger themes. Towards these ends, I adjust my tutoring style to meet each student's academic and personal needs. I listen to my students, encouraging them to ask questions about the material I present. My background in mathematics enables me to provide difficult challenges for even the most able student, but I am also patient and thorough enough to get a struggling student back on track.
While pursuing my honors degree in mathematics at the University of Chicago, I supported myself through numerous tutoring jobs. I have taught mathematics to stude ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Every child should have the best educational experience possible, and I want to provide that for your child. I strive to teach each student why, not just what. A complete understanding of how something works will remain with a student much longer than the knowledge that it does work. I hope that by tailoring my teaching style to the individual, I can help him or her to achieve their maximum potential in each academic area. I absolutely love the materials I teach, and if I can impart that to my students, not only will I have accomplished my goal, but also they will have gained a passion for learning that will benefit them their entire life.
Beginning my foreign language education at the age of seven instilled in me a determination to master the French language and then use it to help others. I have earned a bachelor degree in French and graduated summa cum laude in three years. ... read more
