My Passion & How I Inspire
Ever since I was young I have had a passion for languages. When I was 9, I taught myself how to count to 10 in 8 different languages! My grandparents lived in France and I used to practise French whenever I went to visit them and try to converse with my bilingual cousins. As my academic career has progressed, my desire to share my love of languages has only grown. Communication is at the centre of all human relationships and to have the opportunity to help others learn how to express themselves in another language and to better appreciate a different culture is truly a privilege.
As one of the eldest in a large family, I have always spent time helping my younger siblings with their school work and so I feel I have a certain instinct for tutoring. I am a great a believer that teaching is not a āone size fits allā discipline, always seeking to get to know each individual student and adapting my methods accordingly. As a tutor, my responsibility is to foster confidence and independence in those that I work with, and this requires that I know what motivates a particular student.
I inspire my students by making them aware of the great benefits of language learning. Not only do I aim to help my students excel in exams but I try to encourage them to fall in love with a culture and its language!
