Experience

I am a tutor with extensive experience studying and teaching English and German. I have a master's degree in English and German and a Ph.D. in Education. I taught English in Germany for twenty years in addition to co-authoring textbooks for English. After returning to the United State, I began teaching German at the beginner level all the way through the collegiate level. My experience teaching German and living in Germany makes me especially well suited to tutor students in this subject. My philosophy as a tutor includes making sure I know exactly what my students want to accomplish. It is very difficult to achieve a goal when there isn't a clear sense of what the goal is. In order to help my students achieve success, it is imperative that I understand what they want to achieve so I can provide them with advice and guidance. Additionally, it is imperative to develop a plan of action to reach whatever their goal is. Understanding what the student is looking for also helps me determine the correct tempo. Continuously increasing the tempo is the preferred goal, but sometimes it is necessary to slow down. In my free time, I like to play badminton and table tennis, read, listen to classical music, spend time in nature, and play chess.
