Experienced tutor in French in New York, Josh offers private lessons tailored to your needs.

Josh is truly a rare asset. It is wonderful to have someone of his intelligence, care, and caliber as a tutor. He is impeccable- not only in his remarkable expertise but also in his approach. He is passionate and breaks down complex concepts in a calm and candid way. I have never previously met a tutor who possesses such extensive knowledge and breath in what he can help with. It is also rare to find a tutor who is as prepared and patient as he is, approaching every subject with the same level of meticulous guidance so that you can leave his sessions with confidence. Josh is many things- an impactful attorney, a Rhodes scholar, part of a prestigious law firm, a tutor - but it is essential to acknowledge that he is also an incredibly nice and down to earth guy. I appreciate how much Josh has helped in Writing, Spanish, Politics and Law. If you value these qualities in a tutor, I would not hesitate to contact him. If you are struggling with a daunting paper or perhaps a general subject and you don’t know where to begin, Josh will patiently diagnose your weak points and diligently apply his expertise to overcome them. Otherwise, Josh can only augment your strengths.

Josh is one of the best language teachers I have ever come across. He tutored me in French and Russian and has an incredible ability to break down languages into simple forms for his students. He makes lessons challenging, yet rewarding and attainable. Within my first few Russian classes with Josh, I was able to learn the entire alphabet and all of the grammar rules. He makes it easy to understand difficult grammar rules and I found myself less daunted by languages after lessons with him. On a personal level, Josh is a great person to work with. He is very encouraging and has a wonderful passion for languages. I would highly recommend Josh as a tutor.

Josh was an invaluable resource to me when I applied to law school, giving me advice and feedback on my personal statement, the narrative that I should weave throughout my application, where to apply, how to maximize my scholarship chances, how to prepare for interviews, and what factors I should weigh when choosing a law school.

In particular, Josh's assistance during the personal statement brainstorming and drafting process was exceptionally helpful. I had a number of experiences I considered writing about; Josh was able to help me identify relevant themes from these experiences, enabling me to craft a coherent narrative. He offered substantial feedback on each of my drafts, and his attention to detail (e.g., scrutinizing word choice, sentence structure, transitions between paragraphs) was especially impressive. Josh was clearly invested in my success, and I am confident that I would not have achieved the same application outcomes without his advice.

Josh has also provided helpful career development advice, including how to thinking about clinics, internships, and externships in the context of my professional goals.

Finally, Josh is generous with his time. I am confident that he will show all of his tutorees the same level of diligence he showed me. I cannot recommend him strongly enough.

I'm a 1L at UChicago Law. Josh has been immensely helpful as I struggled to understand criminal and constitutional law concepts. His advice, tips, and deep well of knowledge have also empowered me to become a more thorough and confident legal researcher. I felt really comfortable asking Josh the questions I thought were too silly to ask my professors or peers at law school, and he always "got it" and would answer in great detail. He is an enthusiastic and energetic teacher and a passion about a huge diversity of legal subjects. It's a pleasure to work with him and I always come away from our conversations with increased clarity and confidence.
