Afraid of the French bac? Oral gives you stage fright? Let's study together!

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Presentation :
As a former National Education teacher and BAC examiner, I know how to make French enjoyable for struggling students who don't connect with the subject.
Whether it is to explain how to make a dissertation pleasant to read, how to organize a composed commentary or read one's text clearly, distinctly and posed for an oral.
French is not only a subject, French is difficult and requires effort, but these are rewarded!

Method:
My students have always made significant progress, going from an average of 5 per year to having an average of 14 in the French baccalaureate. My last one to send me his results went from 6 in writing and 9 in speaking to 15 in writing and 17 in speaking (EAF 2024 session).
I have been preparing classes for these tests for years, I am up to date on methodology and programs.
My services combine the experience of teaching French and the vivacity of a young teacher who succeeds in motivating the most recalcitrant students.
My students have always made significant progress and above all, go to tests with confidence in their abilities.

I adapt to your level and I give exercises to do for the next course (finish a comment, make an introductory essay ...).
I am nice and enthusiastic but nevertheless serious: you will make satisfactory progress because you will work for 😉

About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I have always had a certain attraction for French and literature. In 2013, I was a master of letters and my little brother was in first and was going to pass his baccalaureate of French. So it was quite natural that I gave him some methodology classes for the writing and some oral training for him and a few of his friends. I have never stopped since!

My specialty is preparing for the French tests for the first ones. I like discussions that deal with the literary points of certain works, exchange our ideas and our reflections around the text. I especially like to discuss words and their meanings, their understatements, their words and their unsaid ones. What I adore in French is that more than many other things, it is the learning of subtlety.

In literary models, several works have marked me since primary school: The factory of lies and The smuggler. Both speak of memories, to invent or to transmit stories and it is this didactic of the story that touched me.
I was fortunate to have an extraordinary teacher in the second and it is really she who gave me the taste of French as a tool for understanding the world. She was deeply involved in her work and she had organized an inter-second reading tournament which gave us great memories. I'm still friends with her and go to see her in my old high school to exchange now that we do the same job.
I think that it is imperative to know how to interest students. If one is boring it is understandable that the students are bored. For me, entering the classroom is like going on a theater stage (yes, and I did, I know what I'm talking about): you have to gain the attention of your audience! Keep it up and restart it! It is also necessary to be passionate because, as I say to them: "if you are convinced, you will be convincing!"
It is necessary to know how to read the texts by putting all that one has there, which left me good memories with my classes of 6th when I read them tales at the end of the course. And finally, simply, you have to like that. Love to be enthusiastic about a word and want to share that passion.
A good memory lesson: once at the end of a class at the time of recreation, my students said: "Already?". And it's a pleasure for a long time. Another, the fifth grade of which I was the head teacher organized me a surprise birthday party. It is also for the humanity of this profession that I like to be a teacher.
In 4th and 3rd grade I had a French and Latin teacher who didn't like me. I stopped taking Latin at that time since it was her that I would have taken in second grade. She failed to interest me in the subject, to make me want to love it. And that's a shame ! I got back into Latin in 2018-2019 and it was fun! Latin is another very interesting gateway to understanding French grammar in even more depth.

I'm a teacher because I like it. I like explaining things and helping people understand for themselves. I am friendly AND very demanding which means that if we work together, what I hope, you will work and have fun! And make big progress ^^

Private (online) french lessons with an experienced native teacher in Shanghai.
Hi everyone, I'm Mathieu, 40 years old, from Paris, France. I'm a full-time professional french teacher. I lived in Shanghai for more than 5 years where I used to teach in french companies and language institutes. Now, I mainly teach private classes as a freelance, one to one. I have a 12-year teaching experience in China and France, face-to-face and online through Skype or other similar tools. I'm also a teacher in a business school here in Paris.You can check the comments that a few students of mine left here on my profile, to see that i'm a serious and competent teacher. I'm fluent in english and speak an intermediate chinese mandarin. I have all the materials necessary ready for you, self made PDF, audio files and much more.

Contact me for any further information, I'm ready to discuss your goals and my teaching method with you so that you can make up your mind.

Kevin
Polyglot specialist with 9 years of experience. German in speed mode. Level A1 to C2. No school teaching.
I offer you a German course that is not like the others. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches: If you travel back and forth by train every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options: 1) Memorise the timetable. 2) Realise that the train comes every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m. In school pedagogy, in textbooks and in normal lessons, the first approach is used - in the course I am offering you, it is the second approach because it is more economical and faster. My offer is aimed at both pupils and adults who want to learn the German language without time-consuming detours through the madness of fruitless school methods. Learning is easy, but unlearning things that have become bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, with my customised lessons you will greatly accelerate the learning process while having a positive attitude. I offer German lessons for individuals or groups (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive science and historical linguistics in particular. My modular programme can be adapted on a case-by-case basis. The converging point of these modules is your independence in spontaneous conversations in real life. What will not be covered in the course: learning lists of verbs; learning lists of nouns with articles; learning words with their translations; flashcards; doing school exercises; following the syllabus of a booklet; imposing the English grammar on the German language. What is particularly important to me: to motivate my student and to give him a learning rhythm; to encourage his creativity; to befriend him with the language; the letters and their sounds; to strengthen the memory by training the phonological loop; to teach blueprints instead of memorising sentences; to explain how the language works in order to make my student independent as quickly as possible; to eliminate common preconceptions, such as that 'der' would mean masculine and 'die' feminine, that the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, that verbs would be irregular, that declension would be random and therefore would have to be learnt with each verb...; to put practice at the centre and only deal with grammar where necessary. A first lesson will give you a sound idea of my pedagogy.

Laurent
Gain confidence in speaking French with complete immersion
The French language has an orthographic complexity approximately six times higher than its Latin cousins such as Spanish, Italian, or Portuguese. It is quite natural for non-native speakers to have difficulty, particularly with nasal vowels. Add to this the national sport of practicing implicit meaning, sarcasm, and innuendos of all kinds, and the foreign learner is completely confused. There is a world of difference between the rules and their uses! In short, rest assured, you will be guided through the different language registers as well as the different meanings, perceptions, and other explicit and implicit norms depending on the context. Curiosity and a taste for understanding are the key words for enjoying the French language, which is only matched by its gastronomy.
