I taught in Orange, California for the last 25 years in primarily lower grades, kinder to second grade. Teaching is my passion. I love seeing my students’ progress at the end of the school year. This last school year, I taught a dual immersion program for first graders in Spanish.

I decided to retire due to Covid and the difficulties teaching in a classroom environment. I am not done with teaching though.

I can tutor students of any age, whether they are learning English, Spanish, or French. I can tutor reading and math too.

Master in Education K-12
BCLAD (education credential from the state of California)

Bachelor from the University of translation and interpretation from the University of Geneva, Switzerland

Teaching is my passion. I believe learning should be fun for children and adults alike. If you have a child who needs tutoring to improve his/her grades or become more confident in school, I can help.

I can also help you if you are in college or if you are an adult and your goal is to learn English or a foreign language like Spanish or French.

Awesome Spanish immersion Elementary School Teacher

She is knowledgable, prepared, and my son loved her. Very effective teacher. There really isn't any more to say but the stupid site asking for the review is requiring 160 Characters.

Adapts and Learns her Student's Deficiencies

Sabine was able to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses and adapt a plan to continue to work on the areas of struggle. We're seeing improvement in the comprehension and reading confidence with our student.

Daniel, 77 lessons with Sabine

It's amazing that my son immediately liked her and her first lesson.

I was afraid before the first lesson that my 9 year ago son might hate the idea of having a 90 minutes lesson over the weekend. But my son actually loved her long lessons. When I asked him whether or not he want an hour lesson next time. He actually said no because he likes her and her lesson. Sabine is very friendly and knowledgeable. She used different strategies during the lessons to keep him focused and interested at the same time. I think we found a very good teacher and We are looking forward to seeing the improvement of my son's Spanish! 😁

Gaining a child’s trust takes time, normally. However, Sabine just quickly broke through all barriers. My son is 10, shy but I witnessed him collaborate in French, while doing his assignment. Bravo
