Hello! I tutor in a multitude of subjects such as French, GRE test prep, Political Science & Government, and Film Studies. I currently teach French at a university and have tutored students in the other subjects. I received dual Bachelor's degrees in French and Political Science and I am currently working on my Master's degree in French.

When I'm not tutoring, I enjoy playing tennis, trying new restaurants, and watching new films.

Q & A

What is your teaching philosophy?

It is essential for the student to feel respected in order to succeed.

What might you do in a typical first session with a student?

Get to know the student's interest with the subject, as well as outside of school. I would try to determine what type of learner they are.

How would you help a student stay motivated?

Constant positive reinforcement and engaging activities.

If a student has difficulty learning a skill or concept, what would you do?

Try to understand what is causing this difficulty and work to eliminate it.

How would you help a student get excited/engaged with a subject that they are struggling in?

Learning can be fun, so I would find more entertaining methods to teach them.

What techniques would you use to be sure that a student understands the material?

I would have them show/explain their work to me.

How can you help a student become an independent learner?

Teach them the steps to successful studying.
