Award-Winning French Tutors serving Manhattan, NY

I believe that I am a good fit for this tutoring position because I have been a teacher for 27 years. I had the privilege of teaching at all the levels. I was able to motivate my high school students in a way that made them submit themselves to the rigor of the French language and its culture. As a result, I was able to successfully prepare the for the French and Spanish Regents Exams.

Greetings! I am a certified Teacher of French, Spanish and Elementary Education. I am looking forward to working with you and helping you achieve your academic goals.

...sister), I have become the default family "homework helper" over the years. This experience has taught me how to reach younger students in an effective way, be it through fun learning games or real-life examples. Having recently taken both the ACT and SAT multiple times, I am familiar with both exams and know what it takes to do well on them. I am also familiar with the college application process, as I was going through...

...in education for around 10 years. I attended Drexel University College of Medicine where I earned my master's in Pharmacology & Biochemistry. Prior, I attended Binghamton University where I studied Neuroscience (B.S.) and French Linguistics (B.A.), in addition to a Pre-Medicine concentration. In the past, I've worked as a T.A. for intermediate & advanced French, intro. college chemistry, Algebra 1 and Geometry. Being an educator is one of my greatest passions in life, so I...

...tutoring students whose native language was not English. They truly helped me grow as an instructor because of the cultural and linguistic challenges that they brought to the fore. My tutoring philosophy is simple. Teach a student how to think and study. In the academic sphere, this is akin to the old saying teach a man to fish??? It is important to me to dialogue with the student about his or her goals and apprehensions...

...fun but neither is it a great mystery. Let's figure out your strengths, your best learning styles, and see if we can't make it a little less intimidating (and, maybe, even a little bit fun)! FRENCH: Having lived in a french speaking country until I was 8 years old, I have the benefit of being both a native speaker and someone who had to relearn the basics of the french language to better know how...

...college on the campus in the Spanish department. I also obtained tutoring from the French department where I learned many different techniques of tutoring. Thanks to the students I have tutored, I am now able to think of many new ways to teach students since everyone have a unique way of learning. Outside of tutoring I like to spend time with my friends, surrounding myself with great company and engage in adventurous activities.... To make sure...

...one language, it's easier to learn another, once you start understanding the underlying rules of grammar that link all languages. I've also traveled a lot, and have lived for chunks of time in most of the countries whose language I speak. Language is not only a form of communication, it's about culture. That understanding of culture I could bring to the student I'm tutoring, to give them more depth of knowledge of the language. I've...

...exams and the PSAT with which I became a National Merit Scholar. I've learned that testing well requires as much skill as it does knowledge, and I look forward to helping students learn to recognize the type of questions testers create so that they can better figure out how to find the right answer. In my free time, I like sewing (very poorly), yoga, soccer, and pining after various adoptable animals around the City.

...life as a tutor has brought me a lot of joy and perseverance. French is my native language and I grew up in the United States, so from a very young age I was bilingual. It wasn't until I was learning Spanish where I really started to take interest in and love languages. Being able to teach my passion really shines through to the student's learning experience, making education more comprehensive and enjoyable for everyone.

...also studied pre-medicine and I hope to go to medical school in the future. During my time at school I took as many opportunities as I could to visit other countries. I have lived in both the United Arab Emirates and France in order to pursue my foreign language goals. While I am able to tutor a breadth of subjects, my favorite to teach is writing because it enables students to be creative as well...

My passion for education has guided me through five fruitful years of tutoring.

...my students. I also have an innate passion for languages. I know French which is my first language, English, some Spanish and have now taken it upon myself to add Polish and Italian to my repertoire of languages. I enjoy teaching Geometry because it is one of the few math subjects that uses logic. I am a firm proponent of education, and believe it to be absolutely necessary for an improved quality of life. I...

...University of Oxford, where I spent a summer internalizing British culture and Shakespeare's canon. I recently relocated to the greater NYC area after getting married. Before I moved, I volunteered at a local community theater and an animal shelter in northeastern Pennsylvania, where I attended college and graduate school. I look forward to becoming a positive, active addition in my new community, and I am so happy to have a rewarding career as a tutor!...

...swim instructor, and led a bilingual workshop in Panama on environmental conservation, which culminated in the awarding of certificate degrees to 12 adult students. My favorite subjects to tutor are SAT and ACT math. While these are the subjects most students dread, I find that this is where a good tutor can induce the most "Ah ha!" moments because there are so many patterns that can help you ace that test if you know where...

...With over 8 years of experience teaching elementary, high school, undergraduate and graduate students, I specialize in tutoring many subjects, mostly in the humanities and social sciences. I also tutor in Mandarin Chinese. As a native speaker in Chinese, I love to teach Chinese because the language relates to my background and specialty. I can also tutor areas in social sciences, including statistics, biostatistics, psychology, etc. I am looking forward to meeting new students. My...

I began tutoring six years ago, and have been working with a variety of age groups and subjects ever since. I have tutored in elementary schools, middle schools, high schools, and colleges. In college, I majored in Philosophy and minored in Physics and English. I'm excited to work with students and help them learn in their own individual ways!

...and Psychology. Since graduation, I have been working in Television while remaining passionate about French and helping others achieve their language learning goals. I'm a proponent of education in languages and cultures beyond one's own, as I find learning to understand and communicate with one another to be an particularly valuable and global skill. As I tutor in French Reading, Writing, Speaking, and Grammar, I strive to impart this acknowledgement and appreciation to my students.

I have a Masters in French from Middlebury College and spent a year studying in Paris. My language learning background is in full immersion, meaning I've spent several weeks speaking only French, even to native English speakers. My interests include grammar, literature and pronunciation.

...I graduated with Chemistry and Chinese degrees before earning a Masters of Education from the Relay Graduate School in New York. After 7 years of tutoring and 3 years of teaching, I am excited to support students in science, math, language, and exam prep. A mild caffeine addict, I stay active through lacrosse and running, listen to podcasts while roaming the city, and love to discover new coffee shops and Thai restaurants.
