Eleven years of French study and time living abroad in a Francophone country turned Abby into a self-described French grammar geek — the kind of tutor who can explain the subjunctive mood or the nuances of passé composé vs. imparfait with genuine enthusiasm. She tackles everything from verb conjugation drills to advanced reading comprehension. Her deep comfort with the language means she can adapt quickly whether a student is struggling with basics or preparing for the SAT Subject Test.

Born and raised near Paris, Sophie is a native French speaker who earned her degree at Brown — meaning she understands French from the inside and knows exactly where English speakers get tripped up. She digs into verb conjugation patterns, gendered agreement, and sentence structure with the kind of intuitive explanations only a true bilingual can offer.

Though French isn't Anna's core concentration, her American Studies program at Brown includes cross-cultural coursework that sharpens how she approaches language learning — treating vocabulary and grammar as part of a broader cultural system rather than isolated exercises. She covers French 2-level material like irregular verb patterns and conversational basics, bringing the same structured, goal-oriented teaching style that's earned her a 5.0 rating across her other subjects.

Learning French through all four levels gives Ariel a clear map of where students typically stall — whether it's gendered articles in the first year, passé composé versus imparfait in the second, or the subjunctive later on. She teaches grammar as a set of logical patterns rather than arbitrary rules, which makes conjugation and sentence structure feel less like guesswork.

Learning a second Romance language becomes much easier when someone can show you the patterns connecting it to one you already know. Geraldine, who is fluent in Spanish and studied French, draws on those shared Latin roots to demystify French grammar — explaining why subjunctive triggers or gendered nouns work the way they do. She emphasizes pronunciation and listening comprehension alongside written exercises.

Between majoring in French at Brown and writing French poetry in her spare time, Alexandra lives inside the language in a way that shapes how she teaches it — grammar and vocabulary aren't abstract exercises but tools for actual expression. She covers everything from French 1 basics through AP-level work, and her dual focus on math and French means she's especially sharp at breaking down the structural logic behind tricky constructions like pronoun stacking and subjunctive usage.

Kareem's French instruction draws on his humanities background, which means grammar concepts like the subjunctive mood or passé composé vs. imparfait get explained through the logic of the language rather than rote conjugation charts. He's comfortable teaching across levels, from foundational verb tenses and sentence structure through reading comprehension of literary and nonfiction texts in French.

Teaching across four levels of French — from introductory vocabulary and verb conjugation to advanced reading and conversation — Anne adapts her approach to wherever a student currently stands with the language. She emphasizes spoken fluency alongside grammar, so students learn to actually think in French rather than translating word by word from English.

I am an interdisciplinary educator with an Ed.M. from the Harvard Graduate School of Education and a B.A. from Dartmouth College. My background is primarily in integrated arts learning and museum education and I specialize in visual arts, history and art history, and object-based learning. In all subjects, I take a creative, inquiry-based and learner-centered approach, designing opportunities for each unique individual to meet their learning goals.

I'm not tutoring or buried in my textbooks, you will either find me rock climbing at the Triangle Rock Club, playing Ultimate Frisbee, working on my car, or enjoying the great outdoors (beaches, mountains, forests--you name it, I love it). On rainy weekends I enjoy tinkering with computers and old electronics, playing Pokemon, or picking at my guitar.

I am a recent graduate from a masters program in biostatistics at Columbia University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in biological sciences, with a focus in neurobiology at Northwestern University. In August, I will be starting a doctoral program in biostatistics at NYU. I was a teaching assistant at Columbia University in my department and also have tutored graduate students and undergraduates privately as well. My primary areas of tutoring are math and statistics coursework in addition to math sections on standardized tests such as the GRE and GMAT. I am very passionate about helping students feel more confident and excited about math. In my spare time, I enjoy running, playing piano, and spending time with friends and family.

I am a graduate of Wesleyan University, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Sociology with High Honors. With eight years of experience working in education, I've tutored students in math, science, history, and English, as well as helped students prepare for standardized tests. I've guided adults towards passing the US Citizenship Exam and taught English in India, where I lived for six months. Whenever I work with a student I personalize the lessons to fit their particular learning style, since I know every student is unique and having the right fit can make all the difference in making learning fun and effective. My strengths are tutoring the social sciences and humanities, as well as making math and standardized tests approachable to students that normally don't like those subjects. In my spare time I like traveling, spending time in the outdoors (climbing & backpacking), meditation, and playing soccer. Next fall I will be beginning my PhD in Education at Harvard University.
