Dear English Students,

A native French speaker, I have been tutoring students of all levels since 2008. I was the main French and German Instructor, as well as a private English tutor, at the San Jose Learning Center in the Silicon Valley before moving to New York.

The core of my lessons are drawn from a language book, which allows the student to work at his or her own pace during the week.

The lessons themselves are then spent reviewing previous work, as well as introducing new material in a variety of ways, all the while engaging in various forms of dialogues depending on your level.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions.

I hope to hear from you, meet you, and work with you!

Sincerely,
Gabrielle

I tailor the classes to your needs. After assessing your skills during the first lesson, I'll create a customized lesson plan that can help you master the English language as fast as possible.

We'll strengthen the foundation of your grammar skills so that we can build on it more effectively. We'll work on improving your vocabulary, grammar, speaking, listening, and reading skills with fun but informative exercises. And yes, there will be some homework, but it will be fun, I promise :)

Whether you're looking to improve your communication skills through writing and/or speaking, I'm here to help.

Pronouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, prepositions, conjunctions, interjections; these are the puzzle pieces that make up a language. They are called parts of speech.

If you utilize the parts of speech correctly, they can dramatically transform the way you communicate.
