Experience
I'm a graduate student in Literature at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. I have a Bachelor of Arts in International Affairs and French Language & Literature from George Washington University, during which time I spent a year directly enrolled in the French Literature department at the Université de Strasbourg in Strasbourg, France. Prior to returning to academia, I worked in a variety of non-profit support functions, such as administration, operations, accounting, and finance in Strasbourg and Washington, D.C. I am available to tutor high school and college students in a wide array of topics in English, French, history, and government/political science. My tutoring style is collaborative, focusing on developing a dialogue between myself and the student (and if applicable, the parent). I will work hard to help you absorb and retain not only content knowledge, but also develop skills to make deriving that knowledge an intuitive process. I aim to make your learning experience positive and engaging, while still delivering on content and skill mastery.
