Fun and Effective French lessons for all ages and interests

Von 36.08 Fr /Std

I have been teaching English and French (for business or for casual/everyday use) to students of all ages for many years now.

My teaching methods are immersion-based. In the English classes, we speak in English. Dans les leçons de français, nous parlons en français.

Lessons are customized to your needs, interests and desired outcomes. I try as much as possible to include fun in my lessons, via games, songs, or ice-breaking activities.

I have lots of experience working with children and teens as well as adults of all ages and professionals. I work with complete beginners (A0-A1) all the way to mastery (C1-C2).

I also offer tutoring and school support classes.

I look forward to working with you.

Über mich

I have been teaching the English and French languages for the last 20 years. Being born and raised near Toulon, in the Southeastern part of France, French is my native language. In middle school, I was introduced to my first foreign language (English) and it was very hard for me as the methods used by my teachers (memorization and repetition) did not work for me. When I was 17 years old and about to enter my last year of high school, my English teacher recommended that I study abroad in an English-speaking country for a few months. My parents agreed and I was sent to the USA as an exchange student for one year.

Being completely immersed from day-one in English was very difficult but it worked very well. I started improving steadily and rapidly, and I returned to France completely bilingual. After graduating from France with a baccalauréat degree majoring in French and English, I returned to the United States to attend college, where I majored in English. There I met my husband, started a family and ended up living in the US for 15 years, continuing to improve my knowledge and grasp of the English language, and finally achieving the fluency of a native speaker.

During my 15 years of living on the West coast of the USA, I taught English and French to a variety of students: preschoolers, school-age children, teenagers, adults, and seniors. My experience teaching professional/corporate as well as casual French and English courses has allowed me to successfully mentor and coach people starting from different levels and with personal goals.

My own experience in the USA working in different fields (education, marketing, sales, medical, non-profit, government…) helps me give my students practical advice on navigating their professional world successfully despite not being an English (or French) native speaker.

Since moving back to Europe, I have obtained my TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) certificate, and I’ve been teaching at a language school in Amsterdam. My experience has also included helping students prepare for English and French eindexamen (VWO, HAVO, etc…) and coaching students in preparation for their admission essays and interviews to enter higher-education institutions (hotel school, masters programs abroad, etc…). These last few years, I have also been teaching English on-location for NGOs and financial institutions. I have also been tasked with coaching HR Coordinators, Executive Assistants, EMEA Sales Directors, government employees, teachers, and helping public speakers to prepare for presentations, conferences, YouTube broadcasts, etc.

I’ve also helped prepare employees being relocated abroad (for example, to France and to Belgium).

My method has proven results: several of my professional students were promoted, the relocations went smoothly, and many of my school-age students passed their exams and/or were accepted into their chosen schools. The efficiency of my method revolves around a total-immersion approach from the very first lesson. With me, the English class will be taught in English and French class will be taught in French, no matter the level from which you are starting. We will work together to create an understanding and confidence in using your target language, whether for professional or casual uses. My lessons cover language (grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, idioms, etc…) as well as an introduction to culture along with some practical tips.

I look forward to meeting you and to work with you toward achieving your goals!

Fun and Effective English lessons for all ages and interests

Holder of a Master's degree in Letters and endowed with a solid experience in private lessons, I provide French lessons for students wishing to:
- consolidate their bases in grammar, spelling
- improve their language skills (allophone students)
- improve their speaking skills (conversation classes)
-profect the written expression
- prepare for ECR exams
- prepare for the written examinations at the end of the studies (maturity, certificate of completion)
- help with the writing of works of maturity (or other works of end of studies), of dissertation
- work on argumentative texts
- acquire a method to analyze literary texts
- learn how to perform bibliographic research

The course material is a Google Docs document that I create in which my explanations, possible links, exercises appear. By reading it regularly, progress will be faster. It can also be used in addition to other documents (files printed by school teachers and/or books) and has many advantages: automatic updating, downloadable on tablets and smartphones, simultaneous monitoring of what is writing.

For help with writing:

The objective is above all to acquire effective tools. The student will thus be able to learn to structure his ideas, argue coherently (and convincingly) and enrich his vocabulary. It is essential for me to have written work from the student between each lesson.

For analyzes of oral literary texts:

In order to optimize the time available (and to put ourselves in conditions closest to oral exams), we choose together an extract from a work that the student will have previously prepared before the lesson. This would take around 20 minutes at most, and ideally just a little before the meeting time. If necessary, I have the habit of taking a paragraph at random which would serve as a basis for analyzing a passage.

For the corrections of end of studies work:

so that the meeting with the student is at the most profitable, I ask him to send me his writings before the meeting.

Apart from my presence with the student, any course involves a preparation time before and after the lesson, including the work that I correct. My goal is to design an individualized course, so I take the time to write detailed comments on corrected work or tips to ensure maximum success for everyone.

For example, an editorial correction can easily be the subject of a detailed commentary of 4 typewritten pages.

For adults (FLE):

In order to optimally prepare the first ones, I take the initiative to inform myself in advance of their objectives / expectations. Whether to practice speaking in everyday life, the professional world or to practice oral presentations, I prepare either PPT or technical sheets in advance that I send by mail ( after booking on the website).

The other alternative is to make a PV of the course that I send (or that I print). Giving importance to keeping a written record on the one hand to better memorize the topics covered, on the other hand to better assimilate the spelling.

Of a general nature, a concrete situation that responds to the learner's needs is the starting point. From this situation, I address the essential grammatical points.

I offer you a new learning experience.

The focus is on practical application and theory is only introduced where intuition reaches its limits.

Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, my tailor-made lessons will accelerate your language acquisition in a positive learning environment.

You can book a complete course with regular sessions or individual lessons to overcome a specific problem, such as pronunciation or a particular point in grammar.

Learning a foreign language is not a linear process that consists of memorising a list of words, and speaking a foreign language is not an oral translation exercise.

There are two types of approaches to acquiring knowledge:

When asked what year follows 1999, you can immediately answer 2000 without having to think for a long time and, above all, without having memorised each number individually, starting with 1, 2, 3 ... You know that numbers are formed according to a certain pattern. With only ten digits, you can form an infinite number of numbers and always know which number comes next.

When it comes to the alphabet, words and sentences, it's more or less the same, but school pedagogy, school textbooks and regular lessons still follow the rote learning approach. In the lessons I propose, you will learn to use patterns because this is more efficient and faster.

Learning is easy, but unlearning bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible.

My offer is aimed at both young people and adults who want to learn German or improve their knowledge without wasting time on nonsensical school methods.

I offer individual or group lessons for German. The methods are based on cognitive science and, in particular, comparative linguistics. My flexible programme can be tailored to your individual needs. The programme focuses on your independence in spontaneous conversations in real life.

What is particularly important to me:

motivating my students and help them establish a learning rhythm;
encouraging their creativity;
helping them become more familiar with the language;
teaching them the letters and their sounds;
strengthening their memory by training their phonological loop;
teaching sentence building plans instead of memorising sentences;
explaining how language works so that my students can become independent as quickly as possible.

I look forward to meeting you.

I like to use different methods to teach French to students. It can be through songs, drama, role play or videos. I also very often use situations close to the student's experience, such as describing places they have been or talking about what they have experienced. At the same time, I teach the grammar rules to the student. I now live in regions where French has been spoken for over 30 years. Because I have learned French myself (and I am still learning other languages), I can easily put myself in a student's shoes. I can teach in French, Dutch, English, German and Russian.

I am very flexible in teaching. The aim is for the student to reach a target level as quickly as possible. For this I analyze during the first lesson where the shortcomings are and in this way draw up a learning program (always in consultation with the student/parents).
I attach great importance to learning the perfect pronunciation. I also encourage learning to think in the language learned so that the language can be spoken as soon as possible.
Of course I also explain the grammar rules that are indispensable.
I am pleased when my students get positive results.

I am a qualified and experienced native Spanish teacher. I have been teaching Spanish to English students for more than 15 years and I have been teaching Spanish in Germany for 1 year.

I have studied Philology at the University in Spain.

I trained as a Spanish Teacher for Foreigners in Germany.

I can speak English and German fluently, so there will be no difficulty in the teacher-student relationship.

With me you can obtain good results, whether you want to learn or improve your Spanish, whatever your goal:

• Obtain the DELE diploma at any level.
• Improve your Erasmus experience.
• Improve your experience as a tourist.
• If you want to practice your Spanish regularly to maintain your current level
* I have several conversation topics with questions to really practice Spanish.

I give classes for all levels, grammar or conversation with a methodology personalized to the age, mother tongue and previous studies of the student.

I take as a reference point the level and objective that the student wants to achieve in order to apply one or another method.

In case of group classes, the price may be different.
