From 91.3 $ /h

French teacher graduated from the Agrégation d'Histoire, a former student of the Ecole Normale Supérieure Lettres & Sciences Humaines, gives classes for French or French-speaking students following their secondary education in Zurich.

In business for several years in an international high school in France, but also in higher (King's College, London, Science-Po Paris) I master perfectly the objectives and methods of the baccalaureate and post-baccalaureate issues, in France or internationally.

I offer courses for all student profiles, refresher courses in one or more subjects, advanced studies and the preparation of specific exams (eg admission tests at Sciences-Po). Help with revision, exercises, methodology, white oral, intensive pre-re-entry courses, etc., I adapt to the needs of each student.

Do not hesitate to contact me, whether for a one-off help or for a long-term supervision.

About Me

Associate Professor of History, I taught for 7 years in France, in various high schools in the Paris region and at the Lycée International de Luynes (Aix-en-Provence). I was in charge of the European classes as well as the students of the British International Section (OIB). So I have not only the experience of high school requirements, but also the habit of international students, expatriates, bilinguals, etc., whose needs are sometimes specific, especially with regard to their link with their (s) culture (s) of origin and their orientation after the baccalaureate.
My training in History naturally led me to the teaching of History-Geography, but I also studied Philosophy at the Sorbonne. Besides, having taught in Great Britain and the United States, I have a perfect command of English.
I also have experience teaching art in high school. A graduate of Fémis (one of the two major public film schools in France), I have always pursued activities related to cinema, alongside my teaching and research occupations. In particular, I was a member for several years of the FIDMarseille selection committee, then of the Visions du Réel festival in Nyon. In high school, I was for several years a teacher and coordinator of the History of Arts option.
Based in Zürich, I dedicate myself to teaching in a bilingual German / English establishment, to my personal artistic projects and to my children.

I specialize in teaching children and adults. I make learning creative and fun and completely tailor made to each student's learning style and strengths. I place a strong emphasis on intuitive learning through speaking and reading and I let the grammar and vocabulary knowledge build naturally. I do follow textbooks when required but I also lesson plan around it, using the student's interests to make the class interesting.

Italian is my mother tongue, I love its sound, its grammar structure, the culture it expresses.
I hope to pass on to my students my passion and enthusiasm, thanks to the experience I made at university, where I studied ancient Greek and Latin, then working as a teacher in high school, and gaining the DITALS, which is a diploma to teach Italian to foreigners.
I have experience with students of different levels and age, and I gear each lesson towards my students' goals and preferences.

One-on-one English lessons for children between the ages of three and twelve.

Each lesson is fun, interactive, and tailored to your child’s age, ability, and mood. I take a gentle, intuitive approach that allows your child to feel comfortable while naturally progressing in their language skills. At the heart of every lesson is playfulness and joy.

Parents have described me as exceptionally kind, creative, and patient person, with a natural ability to connect with children.

So far, I’ve supported three children—including my stepdaughter—on their English learning journey. All of them are now speaking fluent English with confidence.

My classes offer gentle and personalized support for children with languages, homework, and schoolwork. Lessons are adapted to each child’s age, level, and learning style, helping them build confidence, independence, and a positive relationship with learning.

With a multilingual approach, children are supported in language development as well as in understanding school subjects and completing homework in a calm and encouraging environment. Special attention is given to each child’s individual needs, including support for children on the autism spectrum.

The goal is not only academic progress, but also helping children feel safe, understood, and motivated to learn at their own pace.

Do you ever know what you want to say at work, but struggle to express it clearly or confidently in English?

If you use English in professional settings and want to sound more natural, precise, and confident—without overthinking every sentence—this class is for you.

This class is designed for professionals who already use English at work and want to communicate more clearly, confidently, and effectively in real business situations. We focus on practical workplace communication such as emails, meetings, presentations, and everyday professional interactions.

Rather than general conversation practice, sessions are structured and goal-oriented. We work on clarity, tone, vocabulary choice, and phrasing so you can express ideas professionally without overthinking or sounding unsure. Each session is tailored to your role, industry, and communication needs.

By the end of this course, you can expect to:

✔️ Express your thoughts and ideas more clearly and confidently at work
✔️ Write professional emails that sound clear, polite, and natural
✔️ Speak up more comfortably in meetings and discussions
✔️ Explain ideas and opinions in a way others easily understand
✔️ Feel less nervous or stuck when speaking English at work

This class is best suited for motivated learners who want to improve efficiency and confidence in professional English and are willing to actively apply feedback between sessions.
