Subject: Learn French from a Private Tutor

Mr. William Stern Profile
Hello! I'm a UC Berkeley graduate who grew up in West L.A. I can help you with your French, from basic all the way to conversational skills. I'm currently a 5th grade teacher in a high-performing westside elementary school, where one of my side-jobs is helping manage our Macintosh network, and I have experience helping kids with their schoolwork, and tutoring both kids and adults in the use of computers. I can help you become more efficient and comfortable on your Macintosh computer, teach you how to sell or buy on eBay, and demystify many computer programs for you. In my spare time (which isn't plentiful, thanks to my infant daughter, my wife and dogs!), I play the drums and write short stories. We also facilitate a social support group for the hard of hearing. I'm friendly, reliable, and conscientious. Kind regards, William Stern

Brooklyn Profile
Hi, my name is Brooklyn. I graduated high school in 2005 with an Academic Honors Diploma. I was also inducted into the National Honors Society in 2005. I took honors and AP English classes, and worked my way up to Trigonometry (I am pretty rusty in this area though, so I'm not really comfortable tutoring math above a basic Algebra level). I also played the flute for 7 years, so I am very fluent in music. I cannot instruct others on how to play other instruments, but I can help those with trouble reading music, etc. I also took French for 4 years, and while I cannot say I am fluent, I can still remember quite a bit of what I learned. I have never been an actual tutor, but I have volunteered at elementary schools where I was basically a teacher's aid. I have also always helped friends and classmates with homework. I don't believe in feeding answers to students. I strive to help them actually understand what they are doing, so they can use that information in the future. Currently, I am working towards my associate's degree at Indiana Business College, and I think this would make a great part-time job for me. I am very passionate about helping others, and I will work to the fullest of my abilities to help as many students as I possibly can.

S.Karim Profile
I am an international student with 2 native languages. French and Arabic. I master both languages very well. I received a DALF diploma from French ministry, which represents my proficiency of French language. My mother is a French and my father is a Moroccan. So I spent most of my life living in Paris and Morocco. Just as I master French, I I master Arabic as well. Moreover I am very good at math. All of my high school math grades are As with no exception. I really take this subject as a game once you know the rules, you will master it. Tutoring is not something new to me. I have been doing it for at least 3 years. I was mostly helping my friends. Also, I had tutors in my home country since 2nd grade. So, I know exactly how it goes.

Miss Richere L. Laporte Profile
Hello... I was born and raised in sunny southern CA, but I am a French-Canadian descendant. Growing up, French was the first language in the home since most of my family speaks it. My conversational French is better then the written, but having taken some French courses on Saturdays while growing up, & all through High School, I do well in written too. As for my piano skills, I was fortunate enough to have parents who gave me the great opportunity to take 7 years of lessons. I cannot play by ear, but I do know how to read music notes and can offer some guidance to beginning students. Fur Elise is my favorite piece to play.

Caleb Barber Profile
For the sake of recency, I'd love to tell you quickly of my past year. After graduating from college with honors I decided to enroll with a French agency and tutor a family living in Paris. For six months I would garner invaluable experience becoming accustomed to the eight-year old boy, learning to work with instead of around his mild learning disabilities. Schoolwork, I believe, should never be freely marketed as "fun," the kind of ruse that my parents used when comparing overcooked broccoli to delicious sweets. Instead, students can come to value education as they take pride in their success. Personal success comes with the right spirit in appreciating the journey of learning; no matter the age, no matter the needs, any student can truly sense the joy of a job well done!

Dr. Adnan Derti Profile
My approach mirrors what I observed in one of my best professors: before teaching anything, I think of real-world examples to make the student understand, in advance, the relevance of the material that he or she is about to learn. In my experience, this makes an enormous difference in attention span, understanding and recollection. Likewise, I encourage students who are writing essays to consider the reader's perception. I am attentive to detail, and I actually enjoy editing.

Anne Thatcher Profile
Hello! I am a recent graduate from the University of Wisconsin-Madison where I majored in French and Sociology. I spent one year studying at a university abroad in Aix-en-Provence, France. Throughout college and while in France, I tutored in each of the subjects listed in my profile. After college I entered the NY City Teaching Fellows Program where I was trained to teach second language acquisition and spent from August through November teaching English as a Second Language in a high school in the Bronx. I recently moved back to my home area and now work as a Social Worker in St. Louis. I am available from 5:30 on Monday-Friday and anytime on the weekends. Please send me an e-mail if I can help you in your academic endeavors!
