Connecting Across Cultures: The Practical Use of English

Àpd 121.71 $ /h

English is widely used as a common language in international business, education, and online communication. For students as young as 6, learning English opens doors to knowledge, as many educational resources, websites, and international programmes use English as a main language. It helps young learners access information, build confidence, and communicate with peers from different parts of the world.

For adults, including those up to 65 and beyond, English remains equally important. It supports career development, travel, and lifelong learning. In many workplaces, English is used for communication, meetings, and professional writing. Being able to understand and use English can improve job opportunities and make it easier to work in international environments.

Beyond work and study, English also enriches daily life. It allows people to enjoy films, books, news, and online content in their original form. Most importantly, it helps build connections—whether through friendships, cultural exchange, or global collaboration.

In a rapidly changing world, English is not just a subject to learn, but a practical tool that supports communication, understanding, and personal growth at every stage of life.

Présentation

I am an experienced English language educator with a solid track record in higher education, responsible for designing and leading programmes that respond to changing learner and institutional needs. I take a practical approach to curriculum development, classroom delivery, and learner support, with a clear focus on outcomes and standards.

Before moving into education, I worked in marketing management and corporate communications within established financial institutions. That experience shaped my discipline in planning, communication, and stakeholder management; skills I continue to apply when leading classes, coordinating programmes, and working with colleagues across functions.

My transition into education was a deliberate career decision. It has strengthened my resilience, judgment, and ability to work with people from different backgrounds and at different stages of life. I value consistency, professionalism, and steady improvement in daily work.

Education

University of Cambridge
Cambridge ESOL Teaching Awards – Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults (2010)

University of Leicester
Master of Arts (M.A.) Mass Communications (2005)

Expérience / Qualifications

I bring over two decades of experience teaching Academic and Business English across a wide range of educational settings. My work includes designing curricula, developing teaching materials, and delivering courses tailored to different learner goals. I have worked with highly diverse groups, from secondary school students preparing for further study to professionals seeking career advancement and retirees learning for personal enrichment. This diversity has shaped my ability to adjust teaching strategies, content, and pace to suit varying abilities and expectations.

In addition, I am currently a columnist for a Chinese newspaper, where I write a regular column aimed at motivating and teaching everyday English to Hong Kong primary school students. This role allows me to translate language concepts into accessible and engaging content for younger learners.

My teaching approach combines practical communication skills with a strong academic foundation, ensuring that learners can apply English effectively in both study and workplace contexts. I place particular emphasis on clarity, structure, and purposeful language use.

Earlier in my career, I gained experience in marketing and corporate communications within the financial sector. This professional background continues to inform my teaching, especially in Business English, where real-world relevance, precision, and audience awareness are essential.

I am a French teacher. I have been teaching French, language, and communication since 2012. I speak Arabic, French, Spanish, a little English, and a little Turkish.
I explain my lessons in French, Arabic, or Spanish, depending on your choice.
During the sessions, I explain the course that suits your needs. There is also the option to create an open discussion so that you can speak fluently over time and avoid grammatical gaps.
And at the end of each session, I give "lessons" with "exercises" to do as homework to continue our support and increase your level.

Bring a notebook for this training (or any suitable means) to take notes and keep them.

University English Instructor| Started teaching English 9 years ago| Specializing in Conversational English.

My teaching approach is designed to develop communication skills above all. We watch or read materials, such as videos, articles, stories, poems, caricatures, then discuss them; we act out situations from everyday life; we take positions and practice debates. However, this doesn’t mean that we just practice speaking. I also make sure the learner is not running in circles. I’m here to ensure that they do not keep repeating the same mistakes or keep using the same expressions over and over in conversation.
In order to keep making progress, I take my student on a journey that involves:
• Improving their grammar.
• Fixing their pronunciation.
• Enriching their vocabulary by learning to use new words and common idioms.
By the end of this course, you should be able to speak English fluently and confidently.

PS: Because of my academic specialty, I also help with academic writing and creative writing.

The objective is that: the learner masters the English language (🎧listening-comprehension,🎤 conversation, 📚 reading, grammar-pronunciation, writing...). It helps him to have language skills like native speakers. 🥇

At the same time, the learner will be 🚴‍♀️dynamic and well supervised by professional tutors who listen.
The atmosphere is distinguished: 🔥learning, interaction, no routine, no stress.

The learning tools used; videos, audios, texts, articles, images, games, stories...

We are happy to help both adults and pupils/students. If you want to learn the English language (reading, grammar, oral conversation, written production,...) or you have homework to do, or competitions/tests to take, 🏆 contact us :)

I am a FLE (French as a foreign language) teacher in training centers, associations, and remotely for foreigners who wish to learn French.
Preparation for DEFL and DAFL for all levels.

I have a master's degree in business engineering and international trade, a certification in FLE and a master's degree in teaching in progress.
I use fun and interactive methods with lots of language practice.
I can help you write your CV and cover letter, and practice for job interviews.

I offer sessions adapted to the needs and pace of each learner.

Methodology :
- Initial assessment: For each support I will carry out a diagnostic assessment to identify the student's strengths and weaknesses in the subject concerned (mathematics, French, science, etc.).
- Personalized approach: Courses are adapted to the student's level, with individualized monitoring. This includes practical exercises, targeted revisions, and explanations adapted to each learning pace.
- Progressive objectives: we set short and long-term objectives together to motivate the student and measure their progress.
- Learning techniques: I use interactive methods (online exercises, educational games) and revision sheets to help memorize and understand key concepts (flashcards, etc.)

Typical sessions:
- Course of the sessions:
- Review of previous concepts: 10-15 minutes to review the points covered during the last lesson.
- Lesson of the day: 30-45 minutes to introduce and explain a new concept.
- Practical exercises: 20-30 minutes to apply what has been learned, offering exercises adapted to the student's level.
- Questions and corrections: 10-15 minutes at the end to answer the student's questions and correct mistakes together.
- Regular monitoring: I plan regular assessments to adjust the learning method and adapt the pace of the lessons.

So what are you waiting for? Join me for an unforgettable adventure!
