Pranav - Know your tutor
I am Pranav Sharma, currently pursuing an Honours Bachelor of Civil Law with French Law at University College Dublin, Ireland, where I am part of a bijural law program that encompasses both English common law and French civil law. I have recently completed an exchange program at Université Toulouse 1 Capitole in France, where I took core French civil law courses. Additionally, I hold an Honours Bachelor of Arts from the University of Toronto, with a double major in Sociology and French, and a Language Citation in French. I also have a detailed background in mathematical sociology. My teaching experience is extensive and diverse. I have worked for the Peel District School Board, where I taught Grade 5 math. My passion for teaching French was further honed at Just Grades Learning Centre in Brampton, where I managed the French program. This role involved creating and administering tests, reviewing grades, supervising other tutors, and conducting meetings with parents. I taught French to students from Grade 1 to Grade 12, ensuring they developed a strong foundation in the language. My educational background, combined with my practical experience in teaching and my fluency in French and English, makes me well-suited for a tutoring position. I am dedicated to fostering a supportive and engaging learning environment where students can thrive and develop their language skills.
