Marcelline
Georgetown U. Adjunct Faculty and International Business Pro
I have a passion for teaching and tutoring--seeing the lightbulb go on as my students reach that "Aha!" moment is what charges me up and keeps me coming back for more. My students have often told me that I make “complex stuff†make sense, which is what I think a tutor needs to do. My approach is focused on not only helping you learn the subject, but helping you learn to learn. My telling the student a bunch of information is just a recipe for rote memorization, not learning—so I don't do that... Read more

Dorothee
Certified Exam Prep. Tutor + Native Speaker: HS, College, Business
I love teaching because I constantly see how students thrive if they have the right tools to learn German. In my classes German is comprehensive, fun, and yet straightforward. I like to find ways that make learning German easier, and more time-efficient. Many students lose interest in learning a language because of a cookie cutter approach. Here, it's the opposite; lessons are very individual and carefully customized to the preferences, weaknesses, and strengths of my students. Native ... Read more
