Christine

Conversational German Tutor • +5 Subjects

While attending Gettysburg College, I spent junior year attending the university in the beautiful Black Forest Region of Germany. I earned a BA in German with a minor in Education. I earned a teaching certificate for German in New Jersey. Since then, I have taught students of all ages, including twelve years in public schools teaching 6th-12th graders. I taught adults in a community course and ran a tutoring center at a community college. I have also volunteered presenting German instruction at preschools and elementary schools on special celebrations for my children's classes. I have used a variety of teaching techniques but I generally use lively, hands-on methods, and I feel that learning through stories and physical responses greatly improves success in communication. Beyond tutoring, my interests include hiking and nature, environmental issues, reading, word games, travel, and spending time with my family.

Liliana

AP Spanish Literature and Culture Tutor • +16 Subjects

I believe in a flexible manner of instruction, responsive to the unique needs of a given student. While conducting a lesson or leading practice, I quickly become aware of students academic needs. Every student, regardless of background, can improve his or her ability to listen to and understand vocabulary and sentences in a second language. In lectures, discussions, and assignments, I show that learning a second language responds to various modes of inquiry: analytic, hermeneutic, cultural, and historical; thus, students are led to explore the possibilities of each perspective, and to push beyond their own experience to expand their communication skills. In the end, I have enriched a students ability to listen to, think about, discuss, and communicate in a second language with a new awareness of its aesthetic and humanistic significance.

Iris

AP French Language and Culture Tutor • +21 Subjects

I am a native of Germany and I have a Bachelor's Degree in Special Education and English from the University of Hamburg (Germany). I also hold a Master's Degree in Education with specialization of Creative Arts in Learning from Lesley University, Cambridge MA and a Master's Degree in French from Montclair State University. I am fascinated by the intersection of culture, history, and language, and I have always been passionate about the opportunity to explore new cultures and foreign languages. It all began when I was a high school student in my native Germany and became intrigued by the French language and culture after participating in a student exchange program in Aix en Provence. This has remained a constant throughout my life as I have taught French, German and English to students from Pre-K to Adult in a variety of settings and in a variety of countries including Germany, South Africa and the USA. I am a firm believer in being a lifelong learner and that each student is able to reach his/her potential with the right guidance. In my spare time I am an avid reader (literature, history), I am also interested in the arts, and I love attending cultural events (museum exhibits, theatre plays, opera, classical/jazz/world music concerts). I also enjoy yoga, meditation, and hiking.

Avery

Art Tutor • +12 Subjects

I am a graduate of Bard College with a Bachelor of Art in Studio Arts with a focus on painting. During my time there, I also studied German Language and Literature, eventually spending time studying at the Humboldt University of Berlin. I was previously involved with the group Culture Connect. This group was an after school program at local elementary schools to help ESL students with completing schoolwork and aid in language comprehension. While I tutor English, German, and Art, I am most passionate about German Literature. In my experience, it has always been most productive to make sure a certain level of fun is incorporated into every lesson. I also make sure that lessons are dialogue heavy and a two-way street, so to speak.

Carolin

Anatomy & Physiology Tutor • +15 Subjects

I live in Tampa, Florida and teach three different subject categories: Anatomy and Physiology, GMAT prep, and German. I am a German native and was born and raised in the state of Bavaria. I then moved to Switzerland to work as a physician in neurology. That is why I love teaching anatomy and physiology. I also went to business school and teach GMAT preparation classes. I love that you can greatly improve your GMAT score by studying the right way for it. GMAT prep classes are probably the ones that show the fastest return on invest. My favorite teaching subject, however, is German. I love sharing the German language and culture with my students. I strive to fully engage my students and make them a part of goal setting. I want to understand each individual learning setting and tailor a personalized study plan to each of my students. The more passionate we are about a subject, the easier we learn and retain new information about it. My goal is to share my passion for the German language, cuisine, and culture. Once you can light this fire, the rest comes naturally.

Academic Coaching Tutor • +41 Subjects

I'm a Ph.D. candidate in French Studies at UCLA finishing my dissertation about contemporary French literature. My main research specializations are French language and literature. However, I also have a certification in critical theory and conduct research in cultural studies and music history. I have taught first- and second-year French classes at UCLA for four years, and before that, I taught first-year French for 3 years at the University of Kansas.My tutoring experience goes back to 2002, when I became a tutor for my university's French program. I quickly discovered that I enjoyed tutoring and was able to help struggling students succeed. I have worked as a private self-employed tutor, a tutor for university language department and athletics programs, a contractor for the US State Department, and as a tutor for other private tutoring agencies. In my 15 years of tutoring experience, I have tutored foreign language, ESL, writing, humanities subjects, social sciences, reading, literature, and test taking skills. I have worked with children, teenagers, college students, and adult lifelong learners. Personally, I love working with students of all ages. It is important to me that I help students with different learning styles and interests find the study techniques that work best for them.My tutoring style is informed by my interests in digital learning resources and holistic pedagogy. In my lessons, I integrate videos, blogs, apps, and interactive online exercises. These media resources help students engage their senses, challenge themselves, and find their own strengths. To help students master complex tasks and subjects, I break concepts and tasks down into smaller, more understandable components and steps. Doing this helps demystify complex assignments and tasks, while allowing students to work at their own pace and master each step before continuing. I ensure that students build a solid foundation of knowledge in their subject of study and acquire problem-solving and critical thinking skills. Additionally, through my highly responsive guidance, I help my students find what motivates them to learn. My students tell me that the combination of improvement to their knowledge and the discovery of their intrinsic motivation makes them feel confident about themselves as learners.I wanted to become a scholar because I love exploring and deconstructing ideas and finding new ways to look at old problems. My passion for research extends naturally into my teaching and tutoring approach, where I help students find their strengths, develop new critical thinking and study skills, and approach challenging tasks and ideas with confidence. I would love to help you learn and feel confident about your ability to take on new scholarly challenges.

Jonas

Conversational German Tutor • +7 Subjects

Do you want to pass that literature class with flying colors, or ace the verbal sections of any standardized test? Drop me a line!I was born in Sweden, and after a lengthy stint as a grad student and editor in the U.K. I finally ended up in Wisconsin. I suppose I am well on my way to becoming a cheesehead by now.I have taught and tutored in the U.S., England and Sweden -- ranging from elementary phonics to postmodern literature and Elizabethan revenge tragedy. But irrespective of whether I am teaching pre-K or college, I want to convey a sense of how amazing language and literature are.Hobbies include, but are hopefully not limited to: spending time with my wife, chess, and admiring magpies and other equally intelligent corvids. I also read too much for my own good, and this includes everything from Beowulf to the back of Corn Flakes boxes.
