Easy and Effective French Learning Courses with Fun :))

Passionate about languages and the art of transmitting knowledge, I hold a PhD in Language Science, with a major in linguistics. My years of experience as FLE teacher (in France and Germany) and my PhD on the simplification of specialized medical texts (for non-experts) have sharpened my sense of pedagogy.
I therefore offer my learners personalized French classes that address all their specific needs, both oral and written, through a personalized and easy learning process and in a good atmosphere. Thanks to this method, you will quickly notice improvements in your language skills.
The course schedule will be defined after discussion and according to your availability. Given the current situation, the courses will be mainly online (via Zoom or Skype) but with the possibility of organizing face-to-face sessions if needed.

Extra information

To ensure a quality learning, those who register to learn French as a foreign language (e.i. who are not interested in support classes), might sometimes need to provide themselves with the indicated learning material

About Me

I am passionate about teaching, about knowledge transfer and about languages that is the reason why i carried out studies, and most particularly my PhD, around this specific topic : languages. Thus is teaching languages a passion for me, an activity that brings me joy. The satisfaction of my learners is my main objective and we work together in order to make it possible. As a passionate teacher, i always endeavour to increase learning potentials of my students by creating an effective learning environment. Indeed my teaching method is entirely shaped by the learner’s needs, but there are at least three ingredients that never miss : fun, simplicity and effectiveness, because from my 4 years teaching experience, I came to understand that fun and simplicity (in the way the lesson is taught) play a key role for an effective and successful teaching.

Very nice, committed teacher. Lessons are interesting, it's never boring, the lesson goes by so quickly, it's always a shame that it's already over :). She writes down everything I said wrong, corrects it, and I can repeat everything later. Definitely a teacher with whom you can learn a language well!

Non-academic Latin lessons. Multilingual teacher with 9 years of experience. Pronunciation, historical linguistics, conceptual semantics.
Contrary to popular belief, learning Latin is not like learning the phone book by heart. I offer you Latin lessons that are unlike any other. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches: If you take the train back and forth every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options: 1) Learn the schedules by heart. 2) Note that the train arrives every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m. In school pedagogy, in study notebooks and in ordinary courses, it is the first approach which is adopted - in the courses that I offer you, it is the second because it is more economical and faster. My offer is aimed at both students and adults who want to learn the Latin language or deepen their knowledge without time-consuming detours through the insanities of school methods which do not produce results. Learning is easy but unlearning what has become a bad habit is extremely difficult. All the more important it is to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. With my tailor-made teaching you will accelerate your learning in a positive state of mind. I offer individual or group Latin lessons (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive sciences and in particular historical linguistics. What will not be the subject of the course: learn lists of verbs; learn lists of nouns with their gender; learn words with their translations; memory card game; doing school exercises; follow the program in a notebook; impose French grammar on the Latin language. What matters to me in particular: motivate my student and give him a learning rhythm; encourage creativity; make friends with language; letters and their sounds strengthen your memory by working on the phonological loop; teach construction plans instead of having people learn sentences by heart; explain how the language works to make my student independent as quickly as possible; breaking preconceived ideas such as the gammatical gender would have a link with the biological gender, the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, the verbs would be irregular, the declension would be random and therefore to be learned with each verb... ; place practice at the center and articulate grammar around practice. In the context of a first course, you can get a well-founded idea of my pedagogy. I look forward to meeting you.

Private lessons and homework help for all types of students
Hello everyone, My name is Edouard, and I am currently doing a Master 1 in France, specializing in financial auditing.

I am convinced that my commitment and my passion for learning can contribute significantly to the educational journey of children and adolescents in the Luxembourg capital. Please feel free to contact me to discuss how I can help your child excel academically.

Being a pediatric nurse student, I allow myself to give language courses and also everything related to science and health
In short, learning new foreign languages makes it possible to cross new horizons. Besides that, knowing another language also allows you to discover a country in another form. For example, it is possible to see through a language the cultural richness of a particular country.
