    I love teaching and feel that it is a learning experience every time I work with a student. I majored in French in college and got my masters in education. I have taught English, French , and ESL over a number of years in both private and public schools. My hobbies include reading, biking, seeing movies, traveling, and doing Bible studies and book clubs. I am a member of the local Rotary club here in Folsom.

    Experience

    Tutor

    Mar, 2011 - Aug, 2014

    Tutor Doctor

    While working for Tutor Doctor. I made the "house calls" to tutor students in the home environment in French, English, SAT and ACT prep, ESL, and elementary language arts. My youngest student was a 4th grader who struggled with English which was a second language for him. I had an adult student who wanted to learn enough French to hone in on her own skill set to enjoy a month of travel in France. I enjoyed my tenure with this company.
