Personal Description:

I completed my MEd in Teaching and Learning and my BA and MA in French Studies, so I have a passion for all that has to do with language teaching and learning. I love to teach and read about sustainable living, architecture, philosophy, psychology and Harry Potter. I have a bright smile and contagious laughter that encourage students to just be themselves. Since I, myself, have gone through the language mastery journey, I understand new learners' struggles and I will not judge them for their mistakes. I will make students fall in love with language learning all over again! I recently completed a TESOL certificate in ESL teaching, including Business English. I am now teaching myself Korean to one day teach English at a university in South Korea.

Tutoring Experience:

I have been tutoring and teaching French or English for over 7 years now. I have been working with international students with their conversational skills in English and social integration for 5 years. I have also worked at several children day camps. I taught French for a year to government workers in Ottawa, so they can succeed in their language examination that is necessary for career advancement. When I was doing my MEd, I worked as an English as a Second Language Teaching Assistant for international students at the University of Ottawa. I have also worked as a Career Centre Services Coordinator at the Glendon Campus of York University, where I help university students with gaining essential career-related skills (e.g… writing good resumes, cover letters, mastering interview skills etc.).

Tutoring Approach:

I take a pluralistic active learning approach, so I make sure the student is no longer passive in their language learning, as well as allow them to take advantage of their first language. This means that I give them activities that build their critical thinking and problem solving skills. As a result, the student will become independent and confident in their own ability to communicate in different contexts and situations. Ultimately I want to help students build a more sustainable form of motivation that can be passed on to other subjects, thereby giving them the essential skills to not only communicate effectively (and happily) in a foreign language, but also to tackle anything that comes their way. *ONLY ONLINE TUTORING DUE TO COVID 19*
