I graduated from the University of Oregon where I earned a degree in political science as well as minors in both French and business. I am passionate about French and have developed effective tutoring skills, encouraging students to feel engaged, motivated, and confident. I have experience tutoring a variety of age groups and recently returned from teaching English in France, where I further developed teaching skills specifically related to foreign language. Having lived in France twice, I have mastered the language, notably the French accent, which helps my students grow in their own pronunciation and oral comprehension. In my spare time I enjoy traveling, hiking, and cooking.
