French tutoring and language practice for all levels

Hi! My name is Marie and I am a native French speaker, offering classes for all levels. Whether you are preparing for an exam, wanting to develop you language skills or trying to catch up on your school homework, we can make lessons work for you.
I have a collection of personalisable course material at my disposal, extracted from recent example of French-speaking culture, to use as a starting point for each class. It could be either short videos, news articles, book extracts, depending on your level, your interests, and your goals. From this, we will be able to work on all four language competencies: written and oral comprehension, as well as written and oral expression. And who knows, we might even be able to find you a penpal to practice you newly acquired skills.

About Me

Hi, and welcome to my Apprentus profile! My name is Marie, and I am a 26 years-old scientist. I come from France and have been living in Scotland for four years. I am passionate about the outdoors, mountaineering sports, as well as history and biochemistry. I am also a very curious person, so if you have any eccentric passion to share, I would love to focus on that during our tutoring sessions!
Indeed, I am offering on this platform French lessons for all levels. I believe that teaching, and especially teaching languages, should be highly personalised: I love to work on themes and from material the students have a particular interest in. From this base, we will be able to draw lessons on grammar and conjugation - trying to keep it light so the classes remain interesting.
I am looking forward to discussing your passions in french! A bientot!

Education

- PhD in biochemistry from the university of Edinburgh (2018-2023)
- MSc (equivalent) in physical chemistry from ESPCI Paris (2015-2018)
- physics & chemistry at Universite Paris Sud XI (2013-2015)
- Baccalaureat (Higher equivalent) focused on STEM from ESCR Ste-Famille (20120-2013)

Experience / Qualifications

My experience in teaching has been mainly science-focused in the past, I am happy and excited to switch it up to teaching language skills!

During my PhD, I was involved in:
- laboratory demonstrating, during which I provided one-to-one advice about the scientific experiments the students were conducting
- tutoring fourth-year students during their end-of-studies projects (which last for four months). A great occasion to develop a lasting relationship, which gave me time to tailor my teaching style to their needs!

In the past, I have also had the chance to tutor several students in mathematics. Their abilities were vastly different from each other, and I got used to easily switch levels of teaching to adapt to their capacities and previous knowledge.

Practice your French! For beginners, intermediates and experts!
French can be a difficult language to learn, especially if you are not surrounded by it all the time. However, a new language can be a useful for a CV, for University application, or even for your own cultural knowledge and experience. I can provide help with existing homework if you are already at school, and, I can be a source of practice (as practice makes progress!). I am very flexible and we can discuss what you feel you need to study. I will be here to offer advice on different things you can do to improve.

Nicholas
Tutoring in English, French, or Latin for beginners and advanced learners alike
I am proficient in English, French, and Latin. If you would like one-on-one assistance with any of these languages, feel free to get in touch with me. As a linguist I am happy to provide 'deep' explanations of each language's grammar and phonetics should you ask for them.

Marie-Lou
French course (French native speaker), flexible hours (German course also possible)
You'll learn and improve your French skills (oral, written and comprehension but also pronunciation). We can work with help of materials such as books, music or movies. The point is to have fun by learning this language and discovering another culture. German course also available: based on the same model as the French course.

Estel
Teaching French/Russian to kids, students and adults. Teaching French/Russian vocabulary, grammar, literature, history, culture...
I have studied at the French Lyceum Alexandre Dumas in Moscow and have been learning French since birth. I teach French and Russian to kids, students and adults. I have been teaching French/Russian since I was 14 years old. I helped my classmates pass their French and Russian exams by teaching them vocabulary and grammar. I have also helped them understand history, French and Russian literature, philosophy... I have also helped kids learn French/Russian from the beginning while concentrating on broadening their general knowledge. I have different approaches and techniques depending on my student. -If I teach French/Russian to a kid, the lesson usually lasts for an hour. We play games, watch short movies, sing songs and discuss his topics of interest. The lesson is highly interactive, and the child is highly involved in the process. -If I teach French/Russian to a student/adult, the lesson may last up to an hour and a half. Methods vary, depending on the level of proficiency in the language. We talk about different topics of interest and develop speaking and writing skills in a way that is interesting to the student. If interested, French/Russian literature is studied by authors such as Baudelaire/Tolstoy and Maupassant/Turgenev. We could also converse about French/Russian history, culture and the country's traditions.
