Academic and Conversational English for French Speakers

I'm an American with a M.A. in English Literature and am working in Nimes as a proposal writer for a defense contractor. I tutor students back in the U.S. for improvement and test prep. Here, I offer the same service, with the addition of conversational and business English (I write business English professionally.)
My teaching style is laid back and comfortable -- people learn better when they're engaged and they're more engaged when they're relaxed.
Best Wishes and Good Luck,
- Mark

Extra information

I prefer to meet somewhere public and generally assign some kind of homework . . . even if it's simply reading a passage of fiction and discussing it.

Teaching modern Greek and ancient Greek at all levels
Ancient Greek is one of the oldest languages in the world. A multitude of literary and philosophical texts have been written in this language. Later, Latin will take up many elements of the heritage of ancient Greek. Today, about 10% of the words in the French language have an ancient Greek origin. Our educational exchange aims to understand ancient Greek culture and Western European culture in general. Although it is a dead language, ancient Greek can instill values in us, broaden our horizons and even help us understand French better. At first we will study the alphabet and the general rules of word formation. With the help of mythology and texts (philosophical, literary and others), you will be able to understand basic words, phrases and expressions and get to know the world of ancient Greece. Finally, in Modern Greek, you can prepare for all levels, from A1 to C2.
