● Abundant experience since 2010
Taught international students attending American/ British schools based in the US and Paris, France.
During my 8 years of residence in Paris, France, I have served as a middle school and high school teacher at the city’s largest private American school. I have gained wonderful and significant experience while teaching English, Literacy, Honors World Literature, and College Prep to the international younger generations
Remarkable improvement in academic performance is guaranteed.
I have helped numerous students gain admission to top-choice colleges (read below for further information).
● Subject Expertise
K-12th Grade English; Literature; Essay; Literary Analysis; Persuasive Writing; SAT Critical Reading/ Literature; Social Studies; Poetry; IB Language A: Language and Literature HL/SL; SAT US History/ World History
I tutor students of all ages and abilities in a variety of classes - literature, history, social studies, college preparatory classes e.g. SAT, IB, AP, and particularly writing - I have worked with a myriad of students who’d had difficulties with essays and academic writing; after months of training guided by my teaching methods, they have all seen great improvements.
All students can be good at writing, with no exception. In my class, I create learning environments that encourage experimentation and discovery and use methods that enrich the student’s logical, critical thinking, and expressions.
In order to help them achieve their academic goals with efficiency, I tailor my approach to meet their individual needs and construct a program for them to both tackle their difficulties as well as enhance their capabilities. I will use a mixture of tailored questions and teaching methods to cater to the student individually, as well as adding in the preparation that I have used which helped a great number of my students achieve their academic goal and get into the world’s top universities (Cambridge, LSE, UPenn, Stanford, Yale, UC Berkeley, Tokyo, King’s College London, etc.)
