Experience
I'm a native of Arlington, Virginia who received an undergraduate degree in psychology in 2009 from the College of William and Mary. My concentrations were in kinesiology and childhood cognitive development. I strongly believe that exercise and training is vital, both to the body and to the mind. I am also passionate about foreign languages, especially French and Spanish. My mother was a high school teacher of English and Russian, while my grandfather taught Spanish at the University of California Berkeley. During summers while in college, I pursued Spanish immersion, and during other vacations I prepped students in high school for Spanish exams. In addition, I helped translate English into Spanish for Central American immigrants working for local restaurants and construction contractors.My favorite subjects to tutor are French and Spanish language, although I'm competent in other areas as well. I love French literature, American literature, and history. My tutoring style is based on the same method I use when learning for myself. First, identify key principles and concepts. Then, give examples to illustrate them and go into more depth explaining them.My hobbies, when I'm not spending time with my toddler, center around physical activity, namely triathlons. Triathlon training involves swimming, running, and biking. I also enjoy coaching other triathletes.
