Award-Winning French Tutors serving Stamford, CT

...teaching is through helping friends with classes. I find it really rewarding to help someone else understand a concept, and see that light bulb in their brain light up! Outside of academics, I love to make art (I'm a photographer), read / write, and spending time outdoors - especially with some close friends :) Also, I'm beginning a full-time job as a User Experience Designer in NYC beginning in August!! Definitely happy to chat about...

...a graduate of New York University, where I studied psychology, studio art, and English. I chose to go to NYU because it is a good school and because I wanted to experience life in a different setting and because I love to travel and explore. I'm patient and passionate about helping students learn new things that they can use in the future. My favorite subjects are art and English. In my spare time, I like...

...in computer science. I really enjoy teaching because I love sharing my knowledge with others and also I enjoy the bonding that a tutor can have with their student. I can always help you with your French and mathematics. French is one of my native languages and I speak and write very fluent french. I love experiential learning, so I would say that this is my favorite part of teaching and I also love sports,...

I am very passionate about teaching. I love to see the light in the eyes of my students when they finally understand a concept or skill they have been struggling with. My goal is to help my student not only to understand the subject in order to pass the class but as well to succeed in life. I am excited to be your tutor.

...and South-America, and last February I took part in an exchange program in Madrid. This was a great chance to improve my Spanish through living with a family who spoke minimal English and immersing myself in the Spanish community. The powerful reminders Madrid holds of Spain's traumatic history over the last century were evident, in landmarks such as 'El Palacio Real' and 'El Palacio de Las Cortes'. Through my visits to Spain, I have been...

...language skills in young learners while also nurturing aspiring educators. I hold a Doctorate in Organizational Leadership and a Master's in Early Childhood Education, which shape my student-centered teaching philosophy. My expertise lies in early literacy skills and foreign languages, particularly French and Spanish, where I utilize engaging methods like songs, role-playing, and visual aids to accommodate diverse learning styles. My commitment to enriching my students' learning experiences is driven by witnessing their progress and...

...writing projects at any stage of the writing process, including brainstorming, outlining, researching, writing rough drafts, and editing. I also enjoy working with ESL students as they develop their conversational skills, reading comprehension, and writing. Furthermore, I assist with test preparation for both the GRE and the GMAT. Personally, I love all genres of literature, and I maintain a broad range of interests in composition, rhetoric, critical theory, the Renaissance, Romanticism, and Modernism.... I think all...

...helping students realize that they CAN in fact learn French, even if they thought they couldn't! One of my 9th grade students once wrote the following to me: "You are one of the most positive people I have ever met, and you taught me never to give up. You always have a HUGE smile on your face, and that is why I look up to you and why you are one of my role models."

It is very interesting to teach, interact with people who are interested in a language, a culture I really like and that I know very well. There are plenty of ways to make the classes interesting, fun, different each time, depending also on the ages and the interests of the students.

...preschool to middle school. I recently completed a seminar on children's education, during which I worked as a teacher's assistant in an early childhood center. I have also worked at a social services program providing literacy and math support for students of all ages. I specialize in helping students prepare for high school admissions tests like the ISEE and SSAT, both of which I've taken myself! Having gone through the high school admissions process, I...

...lead community-center workshops for teenagers on health, domestic abuse, economic development and leadership skills. Nailah knows how important education has been in her life, in not only providing her with opportunities to explore the world and think deeply, but also by providing her life-long mentors. Some of the educators that first inspired her were from a performing arts camp called Acting Manitou that she attended for four summers as a camper. She later returned to...

I strive to help everyone no matter what their needs are! Whether it be needing help on one homework question, or prepping for a major test, I'd love to help. I have experience tutoring in high sciences and mathematics, and am currently a writing tutor at my college.

I am an undergraduate student at Fordham University, class of 2020. Although I am majoring in Italian Studies, I have a broader interest in modern languages and cultures. My background includes Spanish, French, ESL, Italian, and Arabic. Currently, I am working on my thesis which investigates the intersection of Arabic and Italian culture in Sicily.

...order to do that, I had to discover my best learning method. During my years at Carnegie Mellon University, where I graduated with honors with a bachelors in English and a bachelors in Music, I worked as an after school tutor in the Pittsburgh area, helping students with difficult subjects. I discovered that it was less the student's inability to learn but rather the way a subject was presented. I continued my education at Manhattan...

...educational experiences I appreciate the immeasurable impact that teachers make on the lives of young people. I also realize that the skills and knowledge acquired in the classroom will be used by young people throughout their life, therefore as a tutor I hope to be a role model that cultivates in my students open minds, the knowledge and ability to look at the world critically, and the belief in one's capability to make a positive...

...in New York. I tutored Calculus and Physics throughout College, and have also taught abroad as a volunteer English teacher in Kolkata, India. Math and Science can have a reputation for being a bit dry, but I try to bring fun and excitement to any subject that I teach to really encourage my students to enjoy the material as much as I do. It is most important to me that my students can achieve the...

...I've found that the best way to facilitate learning is to highlight easily understandable parallels to the content being studied. For example, I would compare a historical event to an ongoing, contemporary controversy. Or I would encourage students to think of historical figures as actual characters with goals and motivations instead of just a name on a page. Likewise, when tutoring vocabulary, I would encourage students to make an educated guess about a word's meaning...

...II, GRE and LSAT. I especially enjoy helping students prepare for standardized tests 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...

...love for learning, exploration, and self-awareness. Currently, as a second grade teacher at a private school in Manhattan, I encourage my students to feel confident in their abilities to look closely, think critically, ask questions, and have conversations, with the goal of becoming successful learners across all areas. I began tutoring elementary-age students in college and have continued to 5 years later. I love working one-on-one with a student to provide them with the specialized...

...my tutoring interests are much more broad. I have always done quite well on standardized tests and love helping people prepare for them! I also enjoy tutoring science, math reading, writing, literature and related fields at all levels! Additionally, I have great French skills and am more than comfortable tutoring elementary to intermediate French. I also studied Italian in college and lived in Italy for 6 months, so beginner Italian is also possible for me...
