About Me
What is the difference between a artisan-made pizza vs. store-bought pizza, between, your grand-ma's apple pie vs the one you buy, a French cheese made in France vs made anywhere in the world but in France? I was born and raised in France and came in the US. to earn a doctoral degree in Engineering. Since I love learning, I earned advanced degrees in Engineering ( most of them from France). Since I love teaching, I have been tutoring and/or formally teaching children, college students and professionals for more than a decade. I love teaching French - my mother tongue- not only via the mechanics of it -grammar, pronunciation etc-, but also via the culture. A lot of the soul of French language, the authentic expressions that we use in French are rooted in the culture: that's why we natives master them and non-native don't really. I also enjoy teaching the basics of engineering: algebra, calculus, trigonometry etc. Learning should to be fun and interesting! Once I establish what type of learner you are (visual, auditory, kinesthetic etc) , I provide tailored and interactive tutoring sessions to fit your particular learning style and needs. I have a solid professional experience in academia -I was a university professor- and in industry -I work as an engineer- so I can easily connect whatever you are learning in class to real-life examples. I have a strong and broad educational background (engineering, medicine etc ), thus I can share with you tips on how to prepare for and pass tests with calm, confidence...and flying colors.
