Teacher expertise and credentials
I have been learning French for 6 years now, from French 1 - French 5. I am conversationally fluent and about a B2 level. I've been tutoring French since May 2020 when the French immersion school near us closed for quarantine and I've really enjoyed it.
I took the French CLEP test a few years ago and got maybe 5 points away from a perfect score while testing out of and getting credit for all the French classes at my local community college.
I also continue to take French lessons with native speakers, and I am working on getting my Bachelors in French.
I've been working with young kids for almost 10 years, including my 5 younger siblings, several families I've babysat for, and interning at my local dance studio.
