About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Hi,
I am the mother of two young adults who attended Singapore's local education system. Both studied French as their first language, so I am well-versed in the local education system.

I've been teaching French since my university studies at NUS. I left Singapore shortly after and returned in 2011. I've never stopped teaching French because it's my passion.

I love my mother tongue, and sharing it with others makes me happy. I also love French grammar, and I believe it's essential to learning French. And then there's spelling, too.

Each of my personalized worksheets generally includes spelling, grammar, conjugation, comprehension (listening and reading), writing, and speaking.
I'll sometimes have a literary passage, a poem, or a fable related to French culture and language. I'm also active on WA, so I'll send you articles, videos, or the word of the day from time to time (and yes, questions will be asked during our next class).

My children are grown and independent now, so I have more free time to pursue my passion and share my love for the French language.
I hope to hear from you soon.
see you soon
Joel

Education

1. BA Psychology and Mathematics (NUS)
2. University Diploma in FLE* (Uni Grenoble-Alpes, France)
3. Postgraduate Certificate (Monash University)
4. Several short French courses (Cavilam and CNED, France) to improve my qualifications as a French teacher.

Experience / Qualifications

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I have been a French teacher for several decades, but since returning to Singapore in 2011, I have specialized in teaching students taking the major national exams (O Levels and A Levels, IB, IGCSE) and the DELF French international exams. Since 2022, with my children grown, I have more time to devote to those who wish to learn French.
I will also take on any challenge. I have had students who needed to pass two DELF levels to enter an American university, students wanting to take the MOELC entrance exams, or even students who, at the last minute, wanted to practice before their final exams.

Private French lessons for adults and teenagers with native French speaker in Co. Mayo
For the past two decades, I've had the privilege of tutoring in both French and English. My students have ranged in age, background, and origin, spanning children, teenagers, adults, professionals, and even seniors aged 85 and above. You might wonder why I teach both languages. Well, I am bilingual, with American and Swiss/French roots, and I currently reside in Ireland. This unique blend of experiences equips me with a strong and relevant teaching approach. I possess an intimate understanding of both cultures, enabling me to tailor my classes to the specific needs of my students. My teaching journey began during my time studying social work in French-speaking Switzerland. I started offering private French and English lessons to supplement my income, and I quickly discovered my passion for it. Even after graduating and embarking on a full-time career, I couldn't bear to give up this rewarding activity. I cherished the opportunity to connect with diverse individuals and assist them in achieving their language goals. In my teaching methodology, interactivity takes center stage. I employ a variety of engaging learning tools, including photos, newspaper articles, music, videos, and more. My approach is highly adaptable, with a focus on addressing each student's unique priorities. Some seek to refine their pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary, while others require assistance with presentations or speeches for school or work. Some simply aspire to acquire a new language to enrich their general knowledge. I also specialize in teaching younger children, a testament to my educational background and experience. What you will gain from my courses extends beyond impeccable pronunciation and enhanced vocabulary and grammar. You'll also acquire a profound understanding of the culture associated with each language. When speaking a language, it's essential to appreciate the lifestyle, traditions, and heritage of the nations where it thrives. French and English are spoken as primary languages in numerous countries worldwide, each with its own unique accent and cultural nuances. The learning process is limitless! In addition to my language instruction, I'm a genealogist and host spiritual (non-religious) seminars in the beautiful West of Ireland. My passion for vegetarian and vegan cuisine adds a flavorful dimension to my life. Furthermore, I hold a degree in Early Childhood Education and have operated a private "Before & Afterschool" facility along with Summer Camps catering to children aged 4 to 12 for many years. I am genuinely excited about the prospect of meeting and working with you!

Benoit
Private online mathematics lessons - Qualified and experienced teacher
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 perfect knowledge of the mathematics program of the College and the High School (from the Sixth to the Terminale). During my formative years, I studied and developed many techniques that make it easier to learn math. The strength of my pedagogical approach lies in my ability to explain in a simple way everything that the student finds complicated. I am passionate about this job because it gives me the opportunity to guide dropout students on the path to success. It is a real pleasure to see them evolve and come to terms with the fantastic world of mathematics. I provide my private lessons in Limoges (at the student's home) or remotely (online via the internet). My distance learning courses take place on an interactive online whiteboard. This board is specially designed to promote student/teacher interaction on the internet. Thanks to this educational tool, my online courses are as effective as home courses. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to take advantage of it.
