Teaching Approach

All students learn at their own pace and respond to various approaches. My vast experience allows me to identify which strategies will work best with each student. In addition, I carefully plan lessons around both student's current knowledge of French and school work as to help them feel successful and excited to learn the language. I focus on improving comprehension, speaking, writing and reading skills in a positive and fun way.

Availability

I can work around the student's schedule to a very good degree. Currently, I cannot tutor on Wednesday evenings and on Sundays , but can sometimes be available on Sundays.

Teaching Place(s)

I prefer face to face lessons over online, but am open to both options.
