Leigh L - Tutor in Albertville

I felt like my life needed some direction and languages have always come easy to me. In high school I decided to take French as a second language to broaden my horizons, I loved learning about a new culture and country. Learning the language was just a bonus, I feel that this experience will help me to connect with the new students, as I know exactly how they feel. Scared, excited, unsure but most of all interested to learn. It creates a great foundation for me to build on. I would love the opportunity to give someone else the opportunity that I was given and aid them wherever possible. Learning a new language, especially English, can be extremely beneficial to one’s future. I would love to help someone to create a better life for themselves and to gain an amazing experience they can carry throughout their life, if they choose. I work very well with people and I have some background in being a teacher’s assistant. This experience taught me a lot on how to coach students to be better learners and how to conduct myself professionally in the classroom. Also, I learned how to help students that struggle with the teaching material, how to be patient and how to encourage them. Above all I want this to be a positive experience for us all. I hope to teach and learn students a new skill but to enjoy it as well. Grammar and pronunciation skills are very important when learning a new language. But it can be tedious if taught under the wrong circumstances, I hope to nip this in the bud and create a fun, caring environment for students to grow and have a good time. I hope to learn from them as much as they learn from me.
