Tutoring Approach

I prefer to plan sessions around what each student needs so I am flexible about what we can cover and would like to talk through which areas a student finds difficult in order to plan how we can tackle them throughout the following sessions. I am keen to adapt my teaching style to suit how each person learns so we can have a think about whether a student prefers written explanations, videos, or other methods of learning.

Bachelor of Arts Secondary Education Modern Foreign Languages

Experience

I am a native French teacher, specialised in teaching IGCSE up to A Levels in French and Spanish. I used to teach in the Middle East and my students always succeeded in their examinations. After studying in the UK, I decided to work in Spain and then the Middle East. I know the environment of the international schools well and I am used to teaching students from all over the world.

Tutoring Approach

I am professional and adapt my lessons to your needs. I will make sure that you understand what is asked of you for these examinations but also give you strategies that I am sure will be useful on the day of the exam. I plan my lessons according to your needs and what I think you should improve. However, I will always talk to you about what you would like to work on, that way, we are sure that we are working together as a team for success! I would say my uniqueness is how your mind will start thinking after a few lessons with me, for as I teach you a language I am also teaching you to think differently. My approach will allow you to not just succeed in your examinations, but for you to master the language as well!

I have been a teacher for more than twenty-five years having gained my Bachelor's and my Post Graduate Teaching qualifications at St.Martin's College in the UK. I have been very fortunate to have worked with some inspirational children and young people.

I have experience of supporting students in the British, American and IB curriculums. I have taught people of all ages and all abilities including those with additional needs.

Tutoring Approach

In my approach I try to strike a balance by working with the student to formulate a learning plan with clear outcomes and a time frame for achieving targets along with an informal approach to the lessons themselves. I find that students make much more progress when they are relaxed and comfortable and so I value building a constructive working relationship based on mutual respect and trust.

The most important element of my courses is that I can customise my lessons depending on the profile of my students and their needs, identify their weaknesses, and improve their interactional skills so that they can confront any situation confidently. Also, never forget that the more mistakes you will do, the more you will learn. We only learn by doing mistakes!

Education

Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering from Georgia Institute of Technology, Master of Science in Urban and Regional Planning

Experience

I am an American tutor from Atlanta, Georgia, USA. I came to Dubai more than 10 years ago as a teacher for the Princeton Review of Dubai. Since that time, I have also worked in Bangkok, Thailand for UAE universities and as a freelancer. I have taught basically for any American entrance exam, you can think of. To help my students even more, I started offering "tuitions" regularly throughout the year (American and IB curricula). I work with students as young as 7 and students as old as 40.

Tutoring Approach

For test preparation (SAT, GMAT, etc.), I have a curriculum I have prepared based on my 10 years in test preparation and the best techniques from the Princeton Review, Veritas Prep, and Kaplan. I provide the official study guide book, strategy notes that guide our lessons, supplemental worksheets, homework, and practice tests. During our lessons, we go over a technique for a specific section of the test together, work practice problems, do drills (timed individual practice with a group of problems) and discuss homework. Practice tests are assigned on a regular basis to continually access your progress. For general subject support ("tuitions"), my broad subject knowledge makes it easy for me to help students with math for one hour and history (for example) for another hour so parents can maximize the help they receive from 1 tutor.

Education

M.Sc (International Business), BS (Software Engineering).

Experience

My teaching experience is not very extensive but it is certainly diversified. I have had opportunity to interact with students from various academic levels and backgrounds. I basically focus on key concepts and student's strength to target the areas where a student is struggling. Since Mathematics, Physics, Biology and English are my strong suits therefore I give huge emphasis on real life examples and encourage my students to research using the internet and other mediums.

Tutoring Approach

I believe teaching is a two way street and based on this idea I initially involve all of my students in researching and understanding different concepts on their own. My entire session is steered by the student where he feels comfortable in discussing and shairng his concept without any limitations. For students facing difficulties in understanding, I would break down the information into smaller and less complicated pieces where they would easily comprehend the entire string of information.
