Finally, I am a major foodie and I enjoy traveling to different places to explore new cuisines and learn about diverse...

...love to have an opportunity to continue with one of my passions. I find it very challenging as well as rewarding to try and find out why a person is having trouble understanding a concept. I have a master's degree in air traffic control from Europe, a web design programmer diploma and a mobile application certification. So my background is pretty much math, some physics and programming. Being from French Guiana, my native tongue is...

...with my clients and students founded on mutual respect and strong communication. In my own learning I have benefited so much from, one-on-one support and I want to share the power of that learning with students of all ages, particularly during a time when learning has developed new challenges. In my free time, I love to bake, practice yoga, and stroll through Central Park! I will be attending law school in the fall.

...I am a French savant. I learned French while living with a French family in Grenoble, and the rest is history. I immediately fell in love with the French language along with the challenge of learning a new one. With only my experience to thank, I have had the opportunity to conduct French interviews, "Bosser" in a French real estate firm in NYC, pass my DALF examination, and "enseigner" the language to my family members....

...helping others relate the material to their own interests in order to help bridge the gap between one's own knowledge and a seemingly confusing realm of material. Together, we can work towards fostering an interest in lifelong learning, while keeping the material fun and engaging along the way. Apart from my studies, I'm passionate about dance, having dabbled in various forms of South Asian dance including Bollywood, garba/raas, bhangra, and classical, and I also like...

...organize a College App Essay Bootcamp for 150 students.

...right knowledge and experience. My hope, as a tutor, is to help them to develop methods of working and ways of thinking that will ensure their success in the important subjects they are taught. There are many academic subjects I've enjoyed over the course of my education, but I especially like History and French. In my free time, I play games of all kinds (board, card, video), read history books, and sing in the choir...

...worked throughout college as a music director at Wesleyan's radio station, and currently work as a producer and staff writer for Afropop Worldwide, a non-profit radio show dedicated to African music and music of the African diaspora. I also love watching independent films and reading fiction and philosophy. I love living in Brooklyn, but I enjoy leaving the city to go hiking, and I bike throughout the city as much as possible.

...and patience. At home, I was exposed to parents and grandparents with an extremely wide general knowledge. Talking about different wars, religions, etymologies, linguistics, and genetics made me develop a very strong analogical thinking which helps me understand and teach new ideas very fast. These social and cognitive abilities which I've developed over time, make me confident that I can be not only an adaptable tutor but a challenging one as well. Today, aged 18,...

...to keep things light. I like to make lots of comparisons to current events that are relevant to the subject matter at hand to make things less intimidating and foreign. When I am not working I like playing and recording original music, cooking (often French dishes, not surprisingly), and watching sports. I am a huge fan of Liverpool and all the New England teams (yeah, this year has been rough) and love watching my fantasy...

...Seattle in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. I believe that education is one of the most fundamental aspects of a society's wellbeing, and that it is the duty of those of us who have been graced with the advantages of a good education to give back in some way; one of my motivations for tutoring is to do my part in that way. In my free time, I love playing piano, running, riding my bike, and...

...Mathematics. I am very grateful for my Ivy League education for shaping me into who I am today, and want to share my insights and study skills I've learned over the years. I have extensive tutoring experience as I worked as a Peer Tutor and Conversation Partner at Dartmouth's Academic Skills Center. In addition to my strong mathematics background, I am also very passionate about languages. I'm fluent in three languages (Korean, French and English)...

...of Barnard College. I have a B.A. in sociology and plan to enroll in graduate school to study public policy next fall. I've been tutoring French and writing for the past year, and I'm passionate about guiding people as they learn foreign languages or hone their ideas in writing. I speak French and Spanish, and I'm studying German at the moment. If you're locally based, I hope to meet you for tutoring sessions in person!

...I've worked as a full-time teacher at a competitive NYC school. Before teaching, I studied History at Georgetown University and worked as the full-time, live-in tutor to a foreign Ambassador's children.

Now back in the United States, I work full time for Oceana, the largest international organization devoted solely...

...helping students find ways to understand the process, not just the final product. To me, this is the most rewarding aspect of teaching, and it requires patience, encouragement, and enthusiasm. As a private music teacher for both children and adults, I know how to joke and motivate without talking down to my students. Being a teaching assistant and seminar leader have given me important skills in creating a fun learning environment. My background in theatre...

...but now living in the great city of Boston. I just came back from a year living in France, where I taught English to over 200 elementary school students in person and by videoconferencing.
