Private lessons in consecutive interpreting (note-taking, feedback, reformulation, presentation)

From 72 € /h

Hello !
Are you an aspiring interpreter looking to learn consecutive singing or refine your technique? Do you want to train for a performance? You've come to the right place!
As a professional interpreter in Geneva, I offer my services to help you improve your skills.
I help you prepare for the conference interpreting diploma exams, so that you are ready and confident on the big day.
We will discuss the strategies to adopt depending on the type of discourse (real, educational, of varying difficulty, on all subjects), work on your presentation, tone, and of course on your expression in French, so that you can make the message your own in all circumstances.
Minimum level required: some basic note-taking skills are necessary for consecutive note-taking; we will develop your technique together if needed.
Languages offered: English to French, Spanish to French, and possibly French to English or Spanish (to practice technique rather than the language itself). Occasionally, you may be able to listen to me speaking from another language (B/C) into French (focusing solely on presentation and target language skills).

Extra information

It is possible to work from a language other than English, French, or Spanish to receive feedback on the target speech; in this case, I will likely ask you to bring material (a recorded speech in the desired language).

About Me

As a translator and conference interpreter, I have always been passionate about languages, culture, literature and social and current affairs.
For several years, I have been teaching French with pleasure and enthusiasm. I have had the opportunity to work as a French language assistant abroad, and I regularly give private lessons, particularly in conversation and exam preparation.
My background, both literary and linguistic, fuels my curiosity and my teaching style. I enjoy approaching French through a variety of themes—cinema, science, economics, gastronomy, contemporary culture, and much more.
Each exchange is an opportunity for me to share, discover and help my students progress in a caring and stimulating environment.

The date of the baccalaureate exam is approaching and you need to review the important concepts of this year, to work specifically on certain chapters or to have methods to organize yourself and revise effectively or to reduce your apprehension and your stress ?
I will suggest that you first take stock of your knowledge and your expectations, then work according to your needs, either theory or specific exercises, via white baccalaureates, DS, annals, etc.
I can also help you organize your revisions, give you advice to learn and memorize better, to reduce your stress and arrive on the day as calm as possible.
For many years, I have been helping students pass their exams whatever their difficulties (dys...), because I am convinced that with motivation and a good method, everyone can succeed!

I am currently Psychopedagogical Coordinator in a private school in Geneva.

I teach for primary and secondary school students in all school subjects through metacognition.

I did a master's degree in special education at the University of Geneva and then I was a PhD student in the field of metacognition-develop learning methods to learn to learn better, learn strategies for learning. set of school subjects.

Working with metacognition is:

I) Develop knowledge that the learner has of his own intellectual functioning
► Strengths, weaknesses, likes and dislikes

II) Use metacognitive strategies
► Anticipation, planning, continuous and final control.

III) Generalization and transfer from one domain to another

A) Developing your cognitive abilities: Understanding of instructions, analysis and synthesis of documents knowing how to clarify a situation, solve a problem and process information, know how to take notes, summarize, report, memorize, share and formalize, but also to explore, innovate, search, discover, create and undertake to train.

b) To work its working method: Organization of the homework, preparation of the controls and evaluations.

c) Develop personal abilities: Learn how to manage your efforts, your involvement, your emotions, your time, your motivation to maintain, reinforce or reactivate the desire to learn as well as know how to emerge and take into account your project in its context and his relationship to others.

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 offer tutoring for any student in difficulty.
I have solid knowledge in the various scientific disciplines, in English, in geography history and in economics.
My specialty is methodology.

Independent, I realized a part of my distance education. I am passionate about pedagogy and psychology, and I have developed a strong autonomy and pedagogical experience during these years.

I would be delighted to provide my help for learning different school subjects, whether in terms of raw knowledge or way of learning.

I always take into account the demands and difficulties specific to the student, and I go step by step with him in the perspective of understanding, and not just memorizing.
I have the heart to convey interest and curiosity, while learning the rigor, methodology and efficiency as well as raw knowledge.

I know many different techniques, tips, and ways of learning, and it's important for me to find a way to please and suit the student.

I am jovial, optimistic and patient by nature

The study of the Methodology and its application are becoming essential today whether at the College, High School, University ...
This is why taking stock of the working method as well as gathering the best advice will allow you to obtain the keys to understanding any subject.
