Education

University of Minnesota-Twin Cities - BA Candidate, French

Experience

French is my forte, I guess you could say. Seriously, I do enjoy tutoring English and History, but something about that good ol' Francaise just ignites a fire in my soul. Currently, I am in the process of earning my Bachelor of Arts in French Studies from the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities. I tutored to elementary-aged ESL students when I was in high school. Throughout my college years, I have helped peers master their French skills, as well.I formally edited a magazine, which bolstered my knowledge of English writing styles. I also worked on a radio show, so I am no stranger to public speaking either. If you would like to consult me on matters of essay writing or gaining confidence in the speaking arena, I would be glad to help. I like to teach using the senses, but this is not a set-in-stone model, as each student is different and may require other approaches. You can always count on me to be straight to the point because open communication is the best way to facilitate a positive learning relationship.Whenever I'm not working or studying, I am pretty active in yoga and biking. I keep up-to-date on current events by listening to NPR. I am a cat-lover and also volunteer at the Humane Society assisting with adoptions anytime I can.
