Introduction

I have always been an excellent student. I excel in the Arts, know French like the back of my hand, and am an expert at my native tongue of English. I did not need to take required English 101 in college because I took an AP exam in high school and placed out of it. Additionally, I have studied two years of Latin. I have two undergraduate college degrees: a B.A. in Theatre, cum laude; and a B.A. in French, and am now looking to return to university life. I was in the National Honor Society for my grades in high school. In March 2023 at Thumbtack I received Silver Awards for high achievement. I am also very good as a tutor. For example, I tutored a high school sophomore in French. He was receiving C's and D's for grades in the class. I started with him in December, helped him twice a week for a month or so, and then spent less time with him. As a result of my tutelage he received 100% on a quiz, an 89% on a major project, and an 85% G.P.A. by June. I have many satisfied customers. Here is the review of a pleased ESL student of mine. Please see the review below. "She did her best to start with grammar, reading and speaking. She is organized and she knows very well how to know what you really need. For the first time I can gave her 5 stars." Ramy, 1 lesson with Robyn

Robyn has been tutoring our daughter for a year and a half and she is an experience tutor who is always willing to accommodate to any new format or approach that would benefit the student. She is patient, dedicated, professional and reliable. My daughter always enjoys her lessons with Robyn and is kept engaged during the entire time of the session. Robyn plans and prepares each lesson, uses various books and resources to enrich topics and exercises. Our progress with English and French languages had significantly improved since we started tutoring by Robyn.

I found Robyn to be a pleasure to work with. She's clearly knowledgeable about French language and culture and was able to help me prepare for my trip to Paris. I am looking forward to working with her more to polish my French pronunciation and language skills even after my trip.

We met with Robyn prior to a trip to Paris. We just wanted the very basics to get along on a family trip. She was very helpful and prepared for our needs.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
If the student has to travel to me from a long distance, I will take five dollars per lesson off my price.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
First I do what I call a "baseline". I ask questions to my customer regarding their desires for their goals. After that, I ask for a brief background of who they are and get a sense of their personality, and most importantly I find out their educational background. Next, I see what scholastic level they will be on going forward. After that, I look for the proper educational tools that I will use with them. Then we can begin the learning process, through speech and study.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have studied at Skidmore College, a former Seven Sister to the Ivy Leagues ( until it went co-ed in the 1970's) where I earned a 3.9 out of a possible 4.0 my first semester; I am a graduate of the National Theatre Institute, an immersive college program at The Eugene O'Neill Theatre Center in Connecticut, where I studied the gamut of English and American playwrights; I went to Douglass College at Rutgers University and took French classes as part of my schoolwork, because I lived in the French House on campus; and also spent 5 weeks traveling in France and studying French Government, the French language, and Art History at the Sorbonne in Paris. I have also traveled extensively---to Denmark and Norway; Colombia, South America; and on bicycle as a teenager, through Benelux, France, Scotland and England. I am very open-minded culturally. I possess two degrees, one in Theatre, for which I graduated cum laude, and a second degree in French, for which I have been honored with three certificates of a 3.0 or above G.P.A. per semester. My final G.P.A. for my French degree was a 3.3. Additionally, I was the Early Learner Specialist in our local Kumon Tutoring Center for three years. I worked with children up to the age of seven in English and Math, and graded their work.
