Présentation

I’m a dedicated and friendly Portuguese as a Foreign Language teacher, passionate about helping students communicate with confidence. My classes are dynamic, personalized, and focused on real-life language use. I believe that every student learns differently, so I always adapt my lessons to your goals, your rhythm, and your learning style.

As a teacher, I’m patient, supportive, and very clear in my explanations. I enjoy working with motivated students, from complete beginners to advanced learners who want to refine their fluency or prepare for academic and professional situations. I frequently teach students who are moving to Brazil, traveling, or preparing for the CELPE-Bras exam.

My approach is communicative: you learn by speaking, practicing, and using Portuguese from the very first class. I use practical activities, authentic materials, guided conversation, grammar in context, and cultural insights to make learning both effective and enjoyable. I also give consistent feedback so you feel your progress every week.

If you’re looking for a teacher who combines structure, clarity, and a friendly atmosphere, I’ll be happy to support you on your Portuguese journey.

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.

I'm a Spanish teacher with over 20 years of experience in education, and my goal has always been clear: to help students learn the language in a practical, natural, and meaningful way.

My teaching approach is centered around real-life situations, with a strong focus on speaking and oral expression. I use a modern, engaging, and student-friendly method that encourages communication from day one.

I truly believe that learning a language is not just about memorizing rules—it's about living it, using it, and enjoying the journey.

I’m passionate about guiding each student along their path and providing them with the tools they need to feel confident using Spanish in real contexts.

Both Brazilian and European Portuguese. We will start with the basic grammar of the Portuguese language. Depending on the pace and experience of the student, conversation will gradually take place in Portuguese. You will receive useful and practical tips to make learning the language even more fun.

Hello, I am Majda, French language teacher. I have been giving private lessons online since 2018.
I offer special sessions that meet your needs and objectives to successfully complete your DELF (Diplôme d'Etudes en Langue Française) or DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language), including the TCF (French Knowledge Test). I have been supporting many interested people of different nationalities thanks to online courses since 2018; For me, helping enthusiasts to practice the French language is a very good experience because I understand that success is a capital objective in the life of ambitious people.
I speak Arabic, French, Spanish, and also English. I explain my lessons in the language of your choice. And at the end of each session, I give lessons with exercises to do as homework to examine your gaps and monitor your progress.

Here are some things to know about the DELF and DALF:
The DELF (Diploma of Studies in French Language) and the DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language) are two official and quality diplomas. They are harmonized on the levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. They include the following six levels, in ascending order: A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2. These two diplomas are suitable for all ages and all audiences.
In addition, the DELF B2, and increasingly the DALF C1, allow students to enter French, European or French-speaking universities, and certain Grandes Ecoles.

Will you have DELF or DALF exams to pass? Do you need to follow specific sessions with me to improve your level?
Don't hesitate to book your sessions so that we can start the preparation.
I am available !

Je suis étudiante en Licence 3 d'Histoire en distanciel à la suite d'une reprise d'étude. Je souhaite vous partager mon expérience du travail autonome pour vous permettre d'étudier efficacement.
L'Histoire-géographie vous donne du fil à retordre ? Je suis là pour vous aider par la mise en place d'une méthode de travail personnalisée et efficace, qui vous permettra au fil des séances d'acquérir une autonomie d'apprentissage avec les bonnes clés pour apprendre, comprendre et réfléchir sur des thématiques historiques.
Ensemble nous verrons d'abord ce que vous attendez en termes de quantité de travail, de cours et de méthodes de travail. Ensuite nous passerons à la pratique : trouver des méthodes de mémorisation, développer votre sens de l'analyse et de la réflexion, et perfectionner, si cela est demandé, votre rédaction de dissertation d'Histoire et/ou de commentaire de texte (créer un plan, une problématique et une conclusion pertinente, un développement en parties et sous parties claires et structurées, une introduction "fleuve").

Pour les niveaux primaires, je propose une aide à la lecture, l'écriture, et la compréhension de texte du niveau de l'enfant, et bien sûr quelques notions d'Histoire tout en développant un rythme d'apprentissage qui s'adapte au quotidien de l'enfant et des parents.
Pour les niveaux secondaires (collège et lycée) : je propose un approfondissement quand cela est nécessaire en Histoire-géographie, mais aussi des méthodes de mémorisation, d'analyse et de réflexion ainsi que la mise en place d'un rythme de travail (via rituels d'apprentissage) qui répond aux besoins de l'élève. Pour les lycéens, les techniques de la dissertation et du commentaire de texte sont travaillées à la demande.
Pour les adultes (post-bac) je m'adapte à la demande : désir d'apprendre sur une période, une thématique, préparation à la reprise d'étude, méthodes de travail autonome, dissertation, etc.

I am a French teacher (with a degree in French and Romance languages and literatures with a focus on teaching). I support young people from across the French-speaking world (Switzerland, Belgium, France) in their academic journey to help them achieve better results in French and, above all, gain more self-confidence.

I work with both native teenagers and foreign students living in French-speaking countries.

I adapt to the curriculum, exams and assessments provided by their school.

Looking forward to meeting your children,
Regards,
Laurie

My name is Nicolas, and I am a Brazilian Portuguese teacher with eight years of teaching experience. I have been speaking Portuguese for about ten years now. I learned the language while living in Brazil for several long periods, both for study and work. I am currently living there again.

Having also gone through the process of learning to speak this language, I am well aware of the different stages my students go through. This helps a lot.

My lessons are tailor-made to achieve personal goals and are adapted to the specific needs of each student.

Practice is prioritized throughout the learning process in order to gain autonomy as quickly as possible. Grammar is also covered, depending on the student's level.

This course is aimed at:
- Beginners (basics, conversation, travel);
- Intermediate/advanced learners (improvement, exam preparation);
- Professionals (business Portuguese, interview preparation).

Currently based in Brazil, I am teaching my classes online. I will be back in Geneva in mid-December for in-person classes.

Please don't hesitate to contact me for more information.

Looking forward to hearing from you :)

After an initial assessment, this course is designed to transform your child from a passive consumer of technology into an active, ethical AI creator.

Based on the personalized roadmap developed in the first session, the 5-week program delivers structured, project-based learning tailored to your child's cognitive strengths and interests, specifically addressing any learning barriers identified during the diagnostic phase.

What we achieve in 5 weeks:

Week 1-2: Foundations of Machine Learning & Critical Thinking: We move beyond definitions, using interactive projects to understand how AI learns (data, bias, pattern recognition). This builds critical thinking about the technology they use daily.

Week 3-4: Ethical Generative AI for Creativity: Students learn to master prompt engineering to create digital art, stories, or game concepts using generative AI tools. Safety and Ethics are paramount: we focus on responsible usage, digital citizenship, and copyright basics.

Week 5: The Final AI Creator Project: personalized mini-project (e.g., training a simple image classifier or writing a fully co-authored AI story) to demonstrate autonomy and mastery of the core concepts.

As your specialized 10+ year tech educator and coach, I ensure:

SEN Integration: Continuous adaptation of project requirements and delivery methods to ensure students with Special Educational Needs (SEN) maintain confidence and measurable progress.

Skill Transfer: We teach skills that translate directly to school projects, not just AI theory, but advanced digital literacy and structured problem-solving.
