My approach to education and learning has radically changed since I read Dr. Howard Gardner’s Multiple Intelligences. Gardner demonstrates that intelligence comes in a variety of shapes and forms. There are many different ways to learn, and not everyone learns the same way.
Today, as an LPC student at the University of Law, I find myself experimenting with many different types of learning techniques and hope to become a better learner. I am convinced that we can all become better learners, but it takes practice, perseverance and motivation. That is my goal as a tutor – not just to share my knowledge with others, but to help them become more efficient learners… because the better you know how to learn, the better you can teach yourself practically anything.
Unless my student requests otherwise, I generally structure my lessons into 2 parts. The first half of the lesson focuses on a grammar point with application exercises or writing practice, and the second half focuses on listening comprehension or speaking. Lessons will occasionally be devoted to understanding French culture and its recent history.
I am a native French speaker. I am also an LPC student and Future Trainee Solicitor at a City Law Firm. I have been tutoring students in various subjects since I was 13, including German, Spanish, Math, and violin. I have tutored over twenty students in French and am currently tutoring five students on a weekly basis, for leisure, business, or DELF preparation.
A couple of years ago, a student of mine had been predicted a C by his teacher for his GCSE in German. After six months of weekly tutoring with me, the student obtained an A* on his German GCSE.
