...I was lucky enough to have spent a semester abroad in Paris, capitalizing on the availability of French pastries and museum access.

...Studies and College of Letters (a multi-disciplinary program that includes English, history and philosophy).

While at Wesleyan, I also worked as an ESL instructor, tutoring a Moroccan immigrant and helping him to gain citizenship and employment. Education has given me the opportunity...

...assignments and tests for more than five years. I strive to not only prepare students to exceed academic standards but also to be critical thinkers and curious, well-informed human beings. I recently completed a dual degree at Indiana University and moved to New York to take a gap year before beginning graduate school. As a scholarship student at IU, I majored in economics, cognitive science, and piano performance. Outside of tutoring, you can find me...

I have 3 years of experience tutoring/mentoring struggling students and those wishing to excel beyond their curriculum. I absolutely love to guide students towards their full potentials. In my experience, I have tutored all subjects from 5th-7th grade, and have the most fun working through Math and English.

...and U.S. History. Studying and teaching French, I learned about the frustration students feel when struggling to understand something that might literally or figuratively seem to be in another language. I carry this understanding, lots of patience, and a passion for language into my tutoring sessions. Outside of school, I love to read, have movie nights, see as many Broadway shows as possible, and travel all over NYC and NYS seeing my lovely family and...

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.

...is one of the greatest joys in my life; I'm currently refining French and taking "Intensive Portuguese for Spanish Speakers." It's a life-long process. And yet, I believe foreign languages are best learned in big, joyful leaps, most often with the patient and persistent help of a tutor. I set goals with my tutees and work steadily and optimistically, both with and alongside them, until we have met every goal. Sometimes this happens earlier than...

...help with almost any subject, including math and science, as I took advanced-level courses and 13 AP tests in high school.

...arts is helping a student connect with a text and gain access to someone else's experience, what someone else thought important enough to write down, and then how this connection can help reframe the reader's thinking - deepening, challenging, or shifting the ways our own thought.

...approach new material with greater preparedness. I always want the learner's outcome to be a compoundable skill. For students learning to read and write better, I believe it's all about structure. There are simple constructs of idea, speaker, and audience that must be conveyed in an essay. An author utilizes these same focal points to craft a powerful written work. When an assignment comes along, the anxiety to perform that it creates can nullify the...

The improvement I see in my students, however, is immensely rewarding....

...Romance Languages (French and Spanish) and a minor in Chinese. I have also studied a bit of Italian, Japanese, German, and Swedish. I have always had a passion for foreign languages, fascinated by both the linguistic mechanics and the cultural practices that have prompted each language's unique style.

I am a motivated and dedicated student who is looking to help similar-minded students achieve their academic goals.... I believe that patience and understanding is the key to teaching students. One can never rush learning, as students need to have a solid foundation before learning new concepts.... I would figure out what kind of learner they are and how best to help them achieve their goals, in addition to finding out how much they already know.

...that they're struggling in a certain subject - I want to know what it will take get them through it. I have spent most of time as a student in Montreal, Canada, where I studied History and Journalism at French university Universit de Montral before jumping across the pond to London for a post-graduate degree in Fashion Journalism. I, therefore, tutor French and History, (or French History or is it History in French?)... Find common ground...

...teacher assistant (TA) and did my best to give my students the same feelings I had in Mr Gning's class. I helped various College teachers both create interactive curriculums but also give a pleasant experience to the students. I was able to do so by being their mentor, tutor and ultimately their friend. In addition to working as a teacher assistant, I also was hired as an Independent tutor by the Math department.

I have studied French for 11 years and am fluent in the language. As a native English speaker, I know too well the particular difficulties of grasping the foreign language. My approach to tutoring is based on the students needs and adjusts to their knowledge base and goals!
