Pursuing a degree in French with plans to specialize in French-English translation, Sarah brings a translator's ear to AP French prep — she teaches students to stop converting English thoughts word by word and instead build sentences that sound naturally French, which is exactly what graders reward on the interpersonal and presentational tasks. Her English minor also sharpens her ability to pinpoint where interference between the two languages causes errors in register, syntax, and idiomatic phrasing.

Erintrude earned her bachelor's degree in French from Kenyon College, giving her the deep literary and linguistic grounding that AP French demands — from analyzing texts by Francophone authors to constructing persuasive essays entirely in French.

I'm not around.

I am a graduate of the University of Chicago, with a bachelor's degree in psychology and linguistics. Currently, I am pursuing a master's degree in speech-language pathology at Teachers College, Columbia University. In the past, I have worked as a teacher's aide in a public school classroom, a mentor to middle school girls, an instructor and tutor at the literacy education organization 826, and a summer camp counselor. I tutor a diverse range of subjects, and I find that I especially enjoy tutoring language arts, reading, and writing at all levels, from elementary school all the way up to college/grad school test prep. As a tutor, I am committed to helping students reach their full potential as learners. Throughout my years as an educator, I have seen firsthand the remarkable academic growth that can occur when tutors provide students with the individualized support that they need. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, journaling, and learning about other languages and cultures.

Ben tutored beginning French classes in Dartmouth's French department and then spent a full year living in France, which means his AP French instruction is grounded in how the language actually sounds and functions — not just textbook conjugation tables. He zeroes in on the presentational writing and interpersonal speaking tasks that carry the most weight on exam day.
