Masters: Études françaises (1999)

I believe in a learner-centered approach, which allows students to play an active role in the learning process. Everyone learns a little differently, so I try to understand a learner's particular style in order to to tailor lessons and activities to that student's needs. It is important to develop and work towards specific goals, but also to leave room for creativity and imagination. My objective is to give students the tools and strategies they need...

If necessary, I am also willing to drive to areas...

Some visual learners need assistance in creating revision styles while some students who listen well yet can't record information coherently require help in assembling facts/figures from what they hear. In general, I have had huge success with individual tutoring over the years in many subject areas simply because I take the trouble...
