A Tutor Who Will Help You Succeed

- San Francisco , California ( 94104 )

Success in learning is knowing how to get from here to there by developing the necessary skills. It is about learning effectively. My tutoring teaching techniques focus first, on my understanding how a particular individual person learns - for example, visually, orally, through rote memorization or otherwise - and then using that information to develop a plan by which I can assist the student to learn the subject matter most effectively. I also provide a context for the subject matter being... Read more

Having an Italian father and an American mother I had to grow up bilingual. Half of the family only spoke Italian and the other half English. I grew up in Italy so I know the language and the culture and the differences between living in Italy and in the US. Subtle differences such as when you're offered something saying "yes, thank you" as opposed to "yes, please". I know first hand the challenges, and benefits, of handling 2 different languages, and as I teach Italian to my adoptive niece... Read more
