Jill
French literature and grammar & ESL/reading/writing
I have been a teacher for a total of seven years. I've taught high school French at all levels and have also done private tutoring. I love teaching language because I know students are learning a new way to communicate and by learning a second of third language, the world and communities become a smaller place. Depending on the level, I will use textbooks and workbooks to teach vocabulary and grammar but incorporate other tools such as video and music. I can use the materials you have if you'... Read more

During my years as a tutor I was able to help countless students achieve academic success and even ignited an interest in subjects that they were uninterested in when they came to me.
