The superlative in English with all the rules and exceptions

From 26 € /h

the superlative is used to express something at its peak, for example "the tallest tower in the world"
in English, it's pretty simple, almost every time we put "is" at the end of the word, for the example above, the translation is "the tallest tower in the world". We will see the rules of superlatives and irregular words.
If the word has 1 syllable (called a short adjective), we will add "the" + "is" or "st" if the word ends with "e".
ex: cold: "it's the coldest country"
If the word has 2 or more syllables (called a long adjective), we will add "the" + "most" but the word does not change
ex: adorable: "he is the most adorable child i've ever seen"
Then, if a word with 1 syllable ends with "y" we will replace it with an "i"
ex: easy: "this exercise is the easiest"
If we have a short adjective that ends with a vowel followed by a consonant, we will double that consonant followed by "is"
ex: big: "it's the biggest town"
if it's a long adjective, that word doesn't change.
Finally, let's see the irregular words, there are 3: good, bad, and far
The superlative of good is "the best"
The superlative of bad is "the worst"
The superlative of far is "the furthest" or "the farthest".

English lesson :

I offer preparation for exams (BAC, TOEIC ...) as well as pronunciation and grammar courses accompanied by exercises.

For the other courses, my approach is based on communication. I have many supports (books, magazines, games...) which allow us to always have something to tell. The exercises given from one session to the next are very short and also focus on communication - because it is the need to speak a language that causes it to be learned.

Those who wish can also rely on literary texts.

For an even more lively approach, especially with children, let's play board games, card games, cook or go for a walk, in English!

I adapt to your specific requests.

I have a degree in English and have lived in an English-speaking country for two years (Galway and Cork, Ireland). Having been a trainee school teacher for 2 years, and having more than 10 years of experience in private lessons, I also have a very good knowledge of school curricula.

I have taught English to children, middle school students, graduates and adults, with good results.

I travel by train/bus + bike, 50 minutes maximum around Pont-à-Mousson.

English teacher and Master of Applied Foreign Languages graduate I have been practicing English for over 15 years and this language is an integral part of my daily life. Passionate about Anglo-Saxon culture, I like to share my passion with others. My goal is to awaken the student to this culture through various supports which will allow him to learn the language differently. I want to support him in his learning and give him the keys to progress.

I offer support courses for middle school, high school and preparatory students. Subjects covered:
- mathematics
- history / geography / geopolitics
- French
- philosophy
- English
- methodology
- help with homework
- patent / bac / competition preparation

To present my career in a few lines, after having obtained my bac S physical option, with mention Very Good, I continued my schooling in ECS prep at the lycée Sainte Geneviève in Versailles (better known as Ginette). I developed an efficient working methodology there which I would like to share today.
This method has borne fruit in the competitive exams of the grandes écoles both in writing (19 in contraction, 17 in mathematics HEC / ESSEC, 19.8 in mathematics EDHEC, 17 in Histoire Géo et Géopolitique ESCP Europe), as well as in oral ( 17 in HEC math and 19 in ESCP math).
I am now a 1st year student at HEC and I am pursuing, at the same time, a license in cognitive sciences at the ENS Ulm.

I already have teaching experience: I have been able to provide tutoring for several high school students in English and I am currently passing general culture oral exams to ECS preparatory students.

I am a very patient and rigorous person. But I place benevolence above all at the center of my philosophy: I have at heart the enthusiasm and ease of my students. My goal is to give them (re) confidence in themselves to ensure their progress.

I can teach my lessons via Skype or Zoom.
Do not hesitate to contact me for any additional information

See you soon,

My teaching method is as follows: I base my classes on the official government curriculum. Before the first session, I see with the student the difficulties he may encounter and I prepare before each session the course and the exercises that I will carry out with the student. I try, during my lessons, to be as pedagogue as possible. I privilege the practice (the exercises) it is for me the most effective method to make understand the course and to develop the autonomy of the pupil when he finds himself alone in front of his copy of examination.

Second year law student and holder of a scientific baccalaureate specialized in Life and Earth Sciences, I offer private lessons in all subjects! So, I can help your child in history, science and even language! :) However, lessons will be provided for primary and middle school students.

My goal is not only to give a private lesson but also to make this moment pleasant (because yes, school is already stressful enough...) for the student but also to provide them with different methodologies! My goal ? Help the student progress and ensure academic success!
