About Me
I received my Bachelor of Arts in French Language and Literature with a focus on Second Language Acquisition and Teaching English as a Second Language. Since graduation, I have worked with a plethora of diverse students, ranging from preschool age up to eighth grade middle school, working even with students living with a variety of developmental delays (as I am a certified Special Education teacher). While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about French Language, Literature, and French History. In my experience helping struggling students with grammar, conversation and daily language, we always seem to have the most fun (with remarkable advancements) developing strong, meaningful, useful real world language skills, believing it to be absolutely necessary for an daily survival in a French speaking country, and I try to impart this appreciation to all of my students.
