Master the Basics of Phonetics: Speak Russian Confidently from Day 1

19.08 € /h

Are you ready to unlock the Russian language? The secret to success lies in a strong foundation. In this lesson, we will focus on the most important part of starting any language: Phonetics and Pronunciation.

What makes this lesson special? I don’t use boring textbooks. Instead, I use exclusive presentations with rich illustrative materials. These visual aids help you create mental associations, making it much easier to memorize the Cyrillic alphabet and complex sounds. What we will do together:

The Alphabet & Beyond: We’ll cover the letters, but more importantly, the sounds they make in real speech.

Articulation Training: As a professional philologist, I will show you exactly how to produce those "tricky" Russian sounds like 'ы', 'ж', 'щ' or the difference between hard and soft consonants.

Visual Learning: My bright and clear slides will guide you through every step, ensuring you don’t feel overwhelmed.

First Words: You will leave the lesson knowing how to read basic words and introduce yourself.
Who is this for?

For absolute beginners: no prior knowledge required.

Materials provided: I provide all necessary materials: a copy of the presentation, links to video or audio materials, and homework (if you choose to complete it).

Приятного аппетита! О еде, вкусах и здоровых привычках (B1)

19.35 € /h

Bon Appétit: Food, Flavors, and Lifestyle (Level B1)
This lesson goes beyond the menu. We will explore how language describes our physical changes, the nuances of taste, and the colorful idioms Russians use when talking about food and personality.

🎯 Who is this lesson for?
Level: B1 (Intermediate).

Students who want to sound more natural by using common idioms.

Learners interested in topics of health, nutrition, and lifestyle.

What will we cover?
Word Formation: How to turn adjectives into verbs of change. For example: худой → похудеть (thin → to lose weight), толстый → потолстеть (fat → to gain weight), старый → постареть.

The Science of Food: Understanding nutrition labels in Russian. We will study белки (proteins), жиры (fats), and углеводы (carbohydrates).

Flavors & Sensations: Descriptive vocabulary for tastes (bitter, sour, spicy) and how to use the verbs «удалось» (managed to) and «пришлось» (had to) in a culinary context.

Idioms & Expressions: Master vivid phrases like:

Свежий как огурчик (Fresh as a daisy/cucumber).

Ни рыба ни мясо (Neither fish nor fowl — about a person).

С кислым лицом (With a sour face — looking unhappy).

Teaching Methodology and Materials

Lexical Approach: We focus on how words are transformed and combined in real-life speech.

Discussion: Tell us about your diet: what you had to give up and what you managed to achieve.

I am a qualified and experienced mathematics tutor. Graduated from the Free University of Brussels in 2011, I started my career by teaching remedial courses in different schools in Brussels. I then specialized in individual academic support by following educational training at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. I have been giving private mathematics lessons daily for over ten years.

The students who follow my private lessons benefit from personalized support. The first session is devoted to an in-depth assessment of the student's mathematical knowledge. The objective is to detect its weak points and understand their origin in order to adapt my courses to its needs. I develop a tailor-made remediation program for each of my students aimed at filling each of their gaps. Over the course of the sessions, the student builds a solid foundation for learning and regains self-confidence. At the same time, I help him acquire a work methodology that allows him to gradually become autonomous in his studies.

I have a thorough knowledge of the mathematics curriculum for middle and high school (from 6th to 12th grade). I am also qualified to support students in preparing for international exams such as the SAT, the OMPT, and the International Baccalaureate (IB) in all its variations: Analysis and Approaches (AA SL/HL) and Applications and Interpretation (AI SL/HL).

Throughout my years of training, I studied and developed numerous techniques that facilitate learning mathematics. The strength of my teaching approach lies in my ability to explain, in simple terms, anything a student finds complicated. I am passionate about this profession because it offers me the opportunity to guide struggling students toward success. It is a true pleasure to see them progress and rediscover their connection with the fascinating world of mathematics.

I offer private tutoring in Paris (at the student's home) or remotely (online). My online lessons take place on an interactive whiteboard. This whiteboard is specifically designed to facilitate student/teacher interaction online. Thanks to this teaching tool, my online lessons are just as effective as in-person lessons. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to participate.

It is a question of putting in place rational and professional tools to defuse conflicts and enter your comfort / security zone. In particular simple and logical techniques, which make it possible to resolve and manage violent situations in a harmonious, efficient and lasting way.

The objectives are:
0. Understand and identify the issues / risks then find a balance between empathy and conviction
1. Use interpersonal communication techniques resulting from mediation to defuse tensions and gain distance
2. Dissociate the relational and the nature of the disagreement - Overcome cognitive and psychological obstacles
3. Acquire the techniques of self-defense and mastery without hurting and being injured
4. Face and then defuse difficult behaviors (blackmail attempts, threats, destabilization) or even dangerous with a mediation strategy
5. Develop conflict management and negotiation skills by alternating attentive listening, active speaking and rationality in the face of the limited rationality of the angry individual.

Statistically, the progression following these private sessions is quickly noticeable, from 2 or 3 sessions *. (* study 2020)

Postgraduate School Training & Ivy league college in the United States, our teacher has specialized and worked for over 13 years, in Europe and North America, in the field of communication and public speaking in renowned public and private international institutions, involved in forums and conferences, and focused on two areas: training and coaching, with the key words pedagogy and careful methodology.

PLACES :
- Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Neuchâtel-Montreux-Bâle-Sion-Sierre-Morges-Bienne. But currently, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (ex: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). At your request, I therefore continue to offer them.

University English Instructor| Started teaching English 9 years ago| Specializing in Conversational English.

My teaching approach is designed to develop communication skills above all. We watch or read materials, such as videos, articles, stories, poems, caricatures, then discuss them; we act out situations from everyday life; we take positions and practice debates. However, this doesn’t mean that we just practice speaking. I also make sure the learner is not running in circles. I’m here to ensure that they do not keep repeating the same mistakes or keep using the same expressions over and over in conversation.
In order to keep making progress, I take my student on a journey that involves:
• Improving their grammar.
• Fixing their pronunciation.
• Enriching their vocabulary by learning to use new words and common idioms.
By the end of this course, you should be able to speak English fluently and confidently.

PS: Because of my academic specialty, I also help with academic writing and creative writing.

Hola,
¿cómo estás?☺️
My name is Joana. I am a native Spanish teacher, with a degree in Spanish Literature and Language and a Master's degree in Spanish as a foreign language (UNED Faculty).
■ Since 2009 I have been working at the Cervantes Institute as an OFFICIAL EXAMINER of DELE diplomas (Diploma in Spanish as a Foreign Language)
(I am fluent in French, so during the course I give all the necessary explanations in French on grammatical rules or vocabulary.
Having extensive teaching experience, I prepare students/adults for all levels of the DELE Spanish Diplomas and for all official Spanish exams within Universities.
● Spanish courses for adults who intend to travel or live in a Spanish-speaking country.
● Specialized fun Spanish courses for children (6-13 years old), audiovisual material, interactive games on the internet, choice of textbooks taking into account their age. Children learn the language through experiences and experiences while having fun.
● Help with school homework/exams for French students (all levels, + preparation for BTS, CNED)
● Spanish courses for adults who use Spanish in a professional context (Business Spanish: tourism/restaurants, law, etc.)
● Spanish pronunciation/phonetics/conversation courses (exercises provided by the Cervantes Institute). During my Master's degree, I specialized in Spanish phonetics for foreigners. Students can achieve a very good level of oral production even if they are beginners* :)
● Written production, grammar, oral and written comprehension.
● Spanish civilization course.
I live in Spain, so I give all my classes on Skype.
Skype classes are very flexible and as effective as face-to-face classes! (100% success rate for all Cervantes Institute DELE diplomas and all university exams!)
■ COMPLETE learning materials provided to all my students according to their personal level/age/interests (DELE preparation manual, grammar book, pronunciation guide, notes, mp3 audios)

I will be happy to read from you.

A greeting,
