Award-Winning French Tutors in Elizabeth, NJ

...I was also a Teaching Assistant for 3 college classes. I have always been a passionate learner and I love encouraging the students that I work with to have that same passion. No matter how difficult the subject matter, you can always find something in the material to get excited about, and that’s when real learning happens. I strongly believe that flexibility is a tutor's most important asset. I work with each student to figure...

...because I remember how helpful a compelling guide and mentor can be during the often stressful process of testing and preparation for it. In addition to performing well on the exams themselves, I believe it is just as important for students to learn how to think calmly and confidently about these tests, so that they can help to serve students' broader educational goals. In addition to tutoring students - and being one myself - I...

...Japan and in New York City before I began my current position. Generally my expertise lies in mathematics but I am confident in my abilities in helping students complete homework in all academic areas. I like teaching math because over the years I have built up a great deal of insight into different ways to explain core mathematical concepts and relationships. As a tutor I like to find a baseline where my student feels confident...

...I have tutored elementary through college-level students in a variety of subjects (primarily liberal arts.) Everyone has a unique learning style. As a tutor, I identify and utilize study techniques that each student feels works best for them. When a student is not sure how to approach a subject, I gain their perspective and guide them through breaking down the material into manageable sections. My ultimate goal is to enhance a students learning experience as...

...received a Bachelors degree in both biology and anthropology. I know how difficult advanced science and math classes can be on top of other studies, and I am really looking to work through these issues with potential students.

I have ample experience with academic writing, so I can...

I'm a current student at Columbia University studying sociology and business management. I'm passionate about helping others learn new material and reach new heights of academic excellence. In my free time, I'm usually visiting art museums, in a ballet class, or exploring the city. Feel free to reach out to me with any further questions!... All students can reach excellence when given the type of instruction that fits their unique learning style.... The first thing I do is create a connection with each student--being comfortable with each other is essential. Then, we can set some goals to be entirely clear about what we plan to accomplish during the session.

...year in Paris during college. Because of this, I am well suited to working with students who are having difficulty with French comprehension and oral skills, at all levels. Teaching the SAT is one of my passions, as it is a mystery to many students but one of the largest gateways to success. Helping students with their English reading and writing, for AP tests and college essays, is a challenging but rewarding task. With the...

...and medical cases that I’ve created. For those who don’t love Biology as much as I do, studying processes such as mitosis may seem tedious, but it doesn’t have to be. I make sure to relate microscopic phenomena, such as mitosis, with exciting macroscopic spectacles, such as liver regeneration. When I’m not creating medical scenarios for my students to solve, I spend my time playing soccer, dancing, and watching as many French movies as I...

...students of all ages! I love relating academics to the real world. Not only can math be exciting (who doesn't love fractions?!), but I know from personal experience that math is absolutely necessary if you want to learn how to budget your money so that you can live in your own apartment or travel across Europe for three months. My goal as a tutor is to not only teach my students the skills they need...

...in a range of topics, including Environmental Science, Biology, Psychology, Statistics, French, Russian, English Language and Literature, and exam preparation (SAT, ACT, AP and GRE). My favorite topics to tutor in are Biology and Environmental Science, since I love sharing my interest in the science and using it to help students better understand and enjoy these exciting fields. My teaching philosophy is best summarized as "show not tell" -- I find that guiding students such...
