"Hello/Bonjour, potential student! I have many years of experience as a French teacher, am currently a virtual instructor for students at various schools across the country. Prior to this, I taught in-person at a private Catholic high school and public high schools. In addition to my teaching experience, I have done official public school district homebound instruction (for students that cannot attend regular high school for health related reasons) for 2 years. I tutored officially after school for students on campus as well, in various subjects. I have been tutoring through Wyzant for 15 years now and very much enjoy it! My philosophy of tutoring is to tailor the lessons to meet your needs. Every student learns in his or her own way and I do my best to present the topics in the way that works best for each. I enjoy helping students from all different backgrounds!

I speak French fluently, as I have both lived and taught (English as foreign language) in France. I graduated cum laude from Missouri State University, and earned my Masters in Educational Technology, with distinction. I have also completed some masters courses in French, in France.

I am an Illinois licensed teacher (subject area French). I look forward to helping you achieve success in your subjects, so please contact me as soon as you are ready to learn! My schedule fluctuates often and fills quickly (first come, first serve basis), thus the calendar on here may not reflect actual availability.
