About Me

I've been tutoring English and French as a Second Languages for more than 10 years. As a writer and editor, I also teach writing, from essays to developing business plans. I lived in France for many years and have near-native fluency. I am certified to teach both English and French as second languages. I love working with students, and together we develop individual and specialized lessons. This helps them to be motivated and focused. I am pretty relaxed and friendly but I make my students work so they can improve their skills! Having lived abroad for a number of years, I am able to help students adapt to their new environment, which can be confusing and overwhelming, as well as exciting! As a native Bostonian, I am well-versed in the history and culture of Boston. Boston has a rich historical heritage, from the Plymouth Colony through the American Revolution. Boston is home to world-famous colleges, theaters, and museums, and has a rich music culture (Boston Symphony Orchestra, The Boston Pops, and a lively modern music scene). And many famous Americans, such as Benjamin Franklin, Edgar Allen Poe, Ben Affleck, and Jay Leno hail from Boston. And sports! Baseball, Football, Basketball and Ice Hockey - they are all champion teams! Because of this knowledge set, I can guide my students to a wide range of appropriate cultural and social activities in the city. I look forward to working with you!
