Eric: SAT Subject Test in German course instructor
...perspective bettering one's writing is also a process in bettering one's thinking. I find it rewarding to help students overcome many of the same challenges and hurtles that I and my peers overcame. Tutoring is a way for me to repay a debt I feel I owe to my own teachers by helping others succeed where my teachers helped me succeed. Education is necessary for personal growth and human flourishing as a whole, and I...

...Now wouldn't it be wonderful if you could speak German?! German is set-up just like English, except the main verb goes at the end. So, there isn't much trouble there. However, the words are very long and complex. I remember being in my first German class and we learned the longest German word, and I thought to myself, why would I want to learn this language? Nonetheless, I stuck with it, and am glad I...

The learning curve is steep, and I get to find out a students' particular ways of acquiring a language. Outside of class, I like hiking around the...
