Experience
I have near-native proficiency in both Spanish and French. Aside from knowledge of Spanish and French, I've got years of experience as an educator at some of the top schools in the New Orleans area. My goal as a teacher/tutor is to help your struggling child develop an interest in the language - and after mastery of a few fundamentals - get them speaking in full sentences in no time. With some simple review, alongside practice and real integration with the language, I have a solid track record of helping struggling students with a foreign language. If your child is willing to work and truly commit themselves, I can indeed help him/her get the grade you want in the course (assuming, of course, you come to me with sufficient time). A typical tutoring session with me is more like a discussion. I take your textbook, look over what you need to know for you class or exam, and I use a "build-on-what-you-know" approach to get you not only to simply "memorize" the material, but to get you to truly understand it so that you can easily duplicate on the quiz/test/exam. After doing some verbal and perhaps a few written exercises together, I then offer some study strategies that could be helpful to you depending on your needs. I will say, what typically happens is that the "alone-time, boring" studying is exponentially reduced as our sessions will provide you with true understanding, and eventually, mastery of the material.
