French Tutors:

Kathryn Brunton: My name is Kathryn Brunton and I’m a sophomore at Wittenberg, and I work in the FLLC as a French tutor. I was born in Indianapolis, Indiana and have lived there all my life, but will soon be moving to Safford, Arizona. (Hopefully there will be less humidity there than there is here). I don’t have any brothers or sisters, which can be both a good and a bad thing. Sometimes I wish I had an older brother. I have a Jack Russel Terrier named Mia who has more energy than she knows what to do with, and I used to have a parakeet until I discovered I was allergic to it. Oops. As far as French goes, my mother started teaching me French in Kindergarten ( I was homeschooled through ninth grade), and then I took French for all four years of high school. I took French 215 my first year at Wittenberg, and am now enrolled in French 210 with Dr. Wilkerson. Please stop by if you ever need any help! |
Emily Ellermann: Bonjour! My name is Emily Ellermann and I'm from Littleton, Colorado. I'm a sophomore at Witt and a double major with French and (International) Management. I've been learning French since the 7th grade and I've been tutoring for just about a year. One fun French thing to do is read all the Asterix books and then watch the Asterix et Obelix movies on the big screen! |

Janelle Mahowald : Bonjour! I’m Janelle Mahowald and I am a sophomore Chemistry major here at Witt, along with my French and Math minors. This is my first year tutoring here at the FLLC, wooooooooooooo!!! I’ve been studying French for about 7 years now, and hope to go abroad next spring. Even though I am a chem dork, I still enjoy French and have a bad habit of busting into French at the wrong times. Oh well, je vivrai et je désire que vous me visitiez au FLLC. |

Haoua Manzo : I was born in Niger in West Africa on October 3,1986. My first language is French but I speak two native languages. I studied from kindergarden to first year of high school in Niamey, Niger's capital city. In 2003, I came for the first time in the US to attend high school after recieving a scholarship. I attended the Armand Hammer United World College in NM for the last two years of high school. I graduated in 2005 with an International Baccalaureat and then lived two years in Paris, France before coming to Wittenberg University. |

Elise Willer: Bonjour! Je m’appelle Élise! My name is Elise Willer and I am a sophomore at Wittenberg. Right now I am an undeclared Political Science major and French minor. I spent my junior year of high school as an exchange student in a little French town in the Western part of France. Over the years of French classes and then my year abroad I fell in love with the French, their culture and their language. Thus being my reason for tutoring French at Witt. This last summer I returned to Europe with my family and part of our trip was introducing my immediate family to my families and friends in France which again rekindled my love for all things francophone. |
