Beau

English, Literature, History, SAT & ACT

A Yale graduate in Russian Language and Literature and a Royal College of Art MA, Beau balances humour with rigour to spark curiosity and lifelong inquisitive thinking.

Beau grew up in New York and graduated with Honors from Yale University in Russian Language and Literature. After several years in Paris, he moved to London to complete an MA in Visual Communication at the Royal College of Art, and works as a painter.

Beau began teaching in Paris, working with students from the American High School and gaining deep knowledge of the IB across a range of subjects. He has more than three years of private tutoring experience, especially in English, literature, history and writing, and has prepared many students for the SAT and ACT and supported them holistically through US college applications.

Beau teaches by example, showing students how to approach subjects with excitement, nuance and self-reflection. His goal is to spark curiosity and help students build a lifelong habit of inquisitive thinking, not just complete an assignment. He balances humour with rigour, builds personal relationships with his students and adapts to each one’s learning style.
