Joshua: SAT Subject Test in French test prep instructor
...writing is a hobby of mine. My philosophy is that even when we are preparing for a standardized exam, we should always be relating the work to your passions, pursuits, and educational goals to make the work that much more meaningful. In my spare time, you'll often find me learning bits of new languages for fun or writing. I am currently fluent in English and French, conversational in Spanish and Mandarin Chinese, and can read...

...repeat in a test: they begin to master the information and use it to approach new material with greater preparedness. I always want the learner's outcome to be a compoundable skill. For students learning to read and write better, I believe it's all about structure. There are simple constructs of idea, speaker, and audience that must be conveyed in an essay. An author utilizes these same focal points to craft a powerful written work. When...

In my spare time, I work on fun Python coding projects, play the odd video...

During college, I helped my peers learn French both individually and in small groups; and most recently, I worked as...
