Award-Winning French Tutors serving Hillsboro, OR

...know I can." I want to instill in my students a confidence in their own academic abilities and a true love of learning. I like to work with a student's unique skills to help them master new or difficult material. My ultimate goal is to help my students truly comprehend the material, and be able to apply what they have learned when encountering new problems and questions. When I'm not working I spend my time...

I'm a physics student soon to be electrical engineering student with a strong background in physics and math. I enjoy being a resource for those looking to learn. My main passions are for sustainability and renewable energy technology.

Education is my passion. I love learning and sharing that learning with others! I have had the good fortune to study abroad briefly in Spain and France as well as teach English in South Korea. I have tutored previously and look forward to continuing here. Whether you are exploring the structure of the human brain, the French language, or places past and present, I am here to help. ... Learning a subject comes from passion. Passion...

...is tailored to the student's cognitive needs. I am comfortable tutoring the sciences (especially Anatomy and Physiology), math, French, the arts, literature, and essay writing. I really "geek-out" on biology and A&P because it never ceases to amaze me that the delicate and precise mechanisms that drive our existence came about purely through a long process of statistical expression and deletion of traits. Whenever I manage to remove my self from my studies, I try...

...realistic and supportive, and to help you gain the skills, knowledge, and confidence to achieve your goals. My first time tutoring was back in elementary school, as an accelerated math student, I had time in the mornings to tutor 3rd grade math. When I was in graduate school, I tutored a collegiate athlete during the summer. My preference is to work with elementary age students, algebra students, accounting students, and intro to French students.

...college and university level. A few years ago I decided to focus solely on elementary, middle, and high school students. I substitute teach about 90% of the school calendar year and I have been a tutor (in home and online). In fact, substitute teaching is a lot like being a tutor. Beyond subject matter content, teaching is always about the self-esteem of the student. Learning is a lifelong process. Each teaching situation is an opportunity...

...to develop my style of tutoring, which is entirely student driven. By that, I mean I go into a tutoring session ready to respond to what the student needs. As a tutor, I am not the primary educator, but rather someone who offers what a student might not necessarily have at school: personalized, one-on-one support and assistance, designed to meet the needs of the student, and tailored around how best the student learns and engages...

...can imagine. My tutoring style is to think of us as a team using your natural talents and learning styles to get through any challenges the material presents. English is my main tutoring subject. I enjoy it because literature and language can be confusing, but with the right guide, they can be fun! My education begins with a lifetime of reading all the good literature I could get my hands on, day and night. After...

...student still does not understand, a great teacher will find a way to communicate it in a way that the student will. I became a language teacher, not because I have any prodigious talent for learning foreign languages, but because of the satisfaction that I have found in seeing my students come to a realization when they had previously had no hope. I have designed my own curricula around empowering my students, and liberating them...

...student comfortable and empower them giving them the confidence in their own abilities to achieve. I am a firm proponent of education believing it to be absolutely necessary for an improved quality of life, and I try to impart this appreciation to all of my students. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my two dogs, reading, watching all kinds of sports, jogging, and most of all writing songs, singing, and playing guitar...

...But I also have a passion for English and literature. I excelled throughout school in writing and literature analysis. Want to figure out what on earth MacBeth is saying or why e.e. cummings thought grammar was optional? Let's do this! While very professional, my style is energetic and a bit quirky. I would love to tutor at any level: middle school, high school, college. Even those who are older students, I can treat you with...

...well as AP students. I believe that learning is an idiosyncratic process, and I believe every person has the right to an education that complements their individual needs. As such, I try to see my students as a whole picture, so I can cater to their strengths while helping them where they might struggle. With new students, I assess their initial basic knowledge so that together we can map where each student needs to go....

...I can even help dissect poems! In addition, I took all my science courses (and the MCAT) very recently so Chemistry, Biology and Biochemistry are all fresh in my mind. I would be happy to help you conquer the MCAT, particularly the Verbal Reasoning section. When I am not at school I love to be outside. I like to do yoga, rock climb, boulder, paddle board, run and hike with my dogs. I also love...

Teaching and learning French are based on two very important principles, the need to communicate and the necessity of not hesitating to try and communicate.... Assess his level of comfort and start speaking to him within those borders.... Constantly show him the milestones in his rear view mirror.... Expand their knowledge base; in other words, I would not drill down on his ignorance but promote his potential.... Talking about things that he is interested in and...

I am a MD PhD from Germany who has been living and working in the US now for more than 2.5 yrs. I love teaching students, seeing them improve themselves while learning. Nothing makes teaching more worth it than creating that spark in a students eye, because he/she either really understood something or is just fascinated with the topic and wants to know more.

...B.A. in French Studies and a minor in Interdisciplinary Humanities. I have experience working with students of all ages; during my university studies I provided tutoring in English, ESL, Writing, and Humanities (Art, History, Literature, etc), and after graduation I spent a year teaching English to young learners in France. Though I enjoy tutoring multiple subjects, writing is my favorite because it is so exciting to help people form their ideas and get them on...

Hi, I'm Garrett and I love the world! I love to travel, learn foreign languages, try new foods, and meet new people.

I have worked as a teacher, tutor and mentor for over 10 years. I am passionate about finding special aptitudes and talents in my students that make them prepared and excited about college.

...Barnard College. I have a B.A. in sociology and plan to enroll in graduate school to study public policy next fall. I've been tutoring French and writing for the past year, and I'm passionate about guiding people as they learn foreign languages or hone their ideas in writing. I speak French and Spanish, and I'm studying German at the moment. If you're locally based, I hope to meet you for tutoring sessions in person!

As a certified K-12 teacher, I hold a deep belief that all students are capable of learning. My job as an educator is to help young people navigate the barriers that have prevented them from finding joy and feeling successful in their education.
