Julie L.

Private tutor in Brisbane, Australia

Education

I have a Bachelor of Arts in Languages and Literature in English, with a minor in history, from the University of Bern in Switzerland.

Experience

I can tutor students in French, German, and history. My first language is French and I have also been speaking Swiss-German (a German dialect) since infancy. All my classes were taught in French from primary school until grade 9, but I had standard German and English lessons every week and have been using these three languages almost on a daily basis since high school. I tutored primary and secondary school children in German and English when I was in Switzerland, mainly helping them with homework. Last year I worked as a Swiss-German teacher for young children (aged 4-11), for two lessons/week in a classroom. I have also done some translation work in the past. In addition, I have extensive knowledge of the methodology used in historical studies.

Hobbies

I am very interested in languages and love being able to talk with people coming from different countries. I also love to travel which has encouraged me to learn perfect my language skills. I have been living in Brisbane since this January, having been granted a provisional partner visa. which allows me to work here, and I am planning on staying here permanently. I am fluent in English as it was my major and I have already come to Australia for several months periods over the past four years to be with my Australian partner. However, I believe that for tutoring French or German it is best to try to immerse the student in the language so they can develop a good "ear" for it. Learning about the culture behind a language is also important and can make it easier and more interesting. I am very patient and have loved teaching and helping children and teenagers in the past. I am also open to work with older students or adults if needed.
