Teaching children is almost "an art" Not everyone is able to place him or herself in the mind of a child and that is just so important! I teach playfully and at the same time they learn without really realizing they are in a lesson! I do this with diverse lesson material such as pictures, video's, and we are also practicing songs together.

I offer tailored courses, in person or remotely, according to the needs of each student. For academic support, I adapt to the program followed by the child or adolescent, by deepening the concepts already covered, by re-explaining difficult points or by dissecting problematic themes.

For adults, I mainly teach the basics in Dutch, but I can adapt my lessons to different objectives. For example: learning the vocabulary for a new position, preparing for an exam (Selor, language certification), refreshing your knowledge before an interview, or improving your ability to communicate effectively in a professional or personal context. My approach is always flexible, student-centered, and aims to strengthen both understanding and self-confidence.

The course module is tailored to the student's needs.

A program overview will be presented during the first class.

I will guide you in developing your written and/or oral communication skills, adopting an approach grounded in the science of political communication, international relations, and the social sciences and humanities.

The goal is to teach you how to structure a clear, impactful, and persuasive message, while mastering various persuasion and negotiation techniques.

▪️ Political communication involves the creation and exchange of ideas and opinions among citizens, political leaders, public institutions, and related stakeholders, such as the media. It encompasses all discourse throughout the political process at the local, regional, national, and international levels, as well as how political information can be used for strategic purposes or to achieve political objectives. Those trained in political communication can work in fields such as diplomacy, public and private policy consulting, public relations, journalism, media and digital campaigns, market research, community organizing, lobbying, and other related sectors.

▪️ The techniques taught will allow you to gain confidence in both public speaking and the development of your strategic speeches and narratives.

▪️ But above all, to achieve your goals, it is essential to master the art of public speaking, that is, the ability to express yourself clearly and effectively before an audience. This generally refers to a formal, face-to-face speech in which a speaker addresses a group of people.

▪️ At the student's request, the course can also incorporate skills in marketing, promotion, digital optimization, and SEO, allowing you to acquire:
- An integrated digital marketing strategy, adapted to the context and objectives of your organization;
- The skills necessary to analyze and leverage data in order to make informed, strategic, and innovative decisions;
- A forward-looking vision of marketing, including the use of new digital channels and technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI) and chatbots; and
- The ability to anticipate challenges and seize opportunities offered by disruptive technologies in your digital marketing strategy.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION:
➤Take control of your communication and make a lasting impression!
Do you want to be more convincing in public? Manage your personal and professional interactions with ease? Transform your public speaking into real levers of influence and persuasion?
Whether it's for negotiating, arguing, improvising, managing conflicts or capturing attention, it's not just about self-confidence, but about techniques and impact.

➤Improve your public speaking skills, better manage your personal/professional communication and the resulting conflicts, master negotiation techniques (...): your communication goals may be diverse, and the aim of these sessions is precisely to support you in achieving them. So, how do you deliver a clear message, be impactful, stand out, and leave a lasting impression?

➤ Whether your objective is personal or professional, speaking is a predominantly physical activity, relying on a body, a voice, a breath, a rhythm (diction), an emotion and above all techniques, tools, a method, a know-how, reflecting the speaker's involvement in his speech.

➤ On the telephone, in a meeting, in front of a client, his family (...), relevant and successful speaking must always be effective and efficient, with clear, simple and impactful messages, creating a balance between the message received and message sent. Coherence between form and content. The important thing in communication is not the confidence we have in ourselves, but the appearance of confidence we exude. It’s also not about being structured or coherent but simply about appearing to be so. And to do this, there are targeted tools.

➤ So, how do you listen and be listened to, convince/persuade and be impactful, challenge and leave an impression, enhance your content, address your audience relevantly and optimize the quality & clarity of the exchange/message? It is precisely a question of going through, applying and deploying practical and effective techniques of oral presentation, simple intervention or 'one to one' exchange, aiming to challenge one's audience or interlocutor, taking care of both the content and the form. , all in a professional or personal setting. Here again, there is a range of precise verbal and non-verbal communication techniques which, once modernized and brought up to date, will be put to the service of your reality. Allowing you to move from fear to pleasure in front of the public.

➤ Thus, mastered, the practical method allows, through a set of simulations and scenarios based on your daily experience supporting pragmatic & concrete techniques, to improve self-confidence, self-assurance, ease by overcoming discomfort and controlling his emotion in public. But also to work on your leadership & charisma, in a context where empathy and emotional intelligence are at the service of communication.

➤ So, in this context, after having precisely defined your objective and reviewed the obstacles encountered, here are some examples of themes covered through concrete techniques and a targeted methodology:
✓Practical tools to perfect your rhetoric/repartee
✓Decode and use the practical communication tools of great leaders
✓Fundamentals (practices) of eloquence but also of oratorical art (intonation, gaze, gestures, elocution, range, emotions, pronunciation, development of one's own style of charisma, etc.) to ensure consistency between content and the form
✓Fundamentals of Body Language to support and not interfere with the speech while being convinced & convincing.
✓ Highlighting their speech & promoting their speaking to arouse interest, by building on their strengths.
✓Creation of a coherence between the message emitted & the message received in order to improve its speech and in fact, its professional/personal relations.
✓Management of Q&A sessions & external reactions during an intervention or an oral exchange.
✓Practical tools to put your interlocutor at ease and appear friendly/interested.
✓To succeed in a negotiation/mediation.
✓On the one hand, learning to say 'no' simply in three steps AND on the other hand, getting people to say 'yes'.
✓To turn sentences into positive AND constructive.
✓To manage conflicts (eg 'assertive' communication techniques, eg CNV techniques - Non Violent Communication).
✓To put NLP (neuro-linguistic programming) at the service of communication.
✓To adopt effective, simple, fair and engaging language.
✓To use sentences, turns of phrase & expressions allowing to be precise, simple, effective & challenging.
✓To manage your personal & professional relationships with, for example, the preparation of your ratings.
✓Make your hypersensitivity a strength to tame your abilities.
✓Listening proactively and expressing / conveying ideas / message clearly.
✓ Avoid letting your emotions show through and propose a constructive solution to problems, while drawing on your own relational skills.
✓Be better equipped to recognize and immediately remedy situations that weaken their authority and affect their ability to communicate effectively.
✓Enhance their potential for expression and creativity (often underestimated until now) and 'apparent' sociability
✓Develop not necessarily self-confidence, but the 'appearance' of self-confidence, refine one's listening to respond adequately, open up to the resources of the imagination, free oneself from the rational to then structure one's speech.
✓Relate their communication objectives (project, institution, values, ideas, demands, etc.) to the form of their expression.
✓Learn and put into practice persuasive communication techniques and better understand the perception that others have of oneself. In order to improve his skills of 'self-presentation' and conveyed image.
✓Practical techniques to foster the engagement of the other party.
✓Strengthen the structure of its communication and develop a convincing argument in order to sell its ideas and projects.
✓ Optimizing internal and external relationships are professional fundamentals, so the structure of meetings, dialogue within the company, and mastery of change communication are invaluable.

(...)

➤ In addition, you will leave with concrete and immediately useful tools, developed in the form of practical lightning modules: learning to say no, getting a delicate message across, selling an idea, expressing disagreement with an authority, getting a "yes" without upsetting someone, resisting the pressure of a too-quick "yes", calming someone who has taken your words badly (...).

➤ In short, public speaking skills are now an essential cross-functional skill for asserting oneself, informing, negotiating, and persuading. However, to master the keys to successful public communication, it is necessary to enhance the impact of one's own speeches: by structuring one's interventions and taking into account the circumstances and the audience's expectations; by making a lasting impression through storytelling; by integrating the psychological and emotional factors of effective oral communication; by incorporating emotions into the preparation of the message and arguments; by anticipating objections and delicate situations; by preparing and structuring an engaging and convincing presentation outline; by experimenting with the rules of improvisation; and by appropriately managing difficult situations (...).

➤ In short, each session combines techniques & practical exercises adapted to your everyday situations (filmed with your agreement in order to be reviewed, commented on, decoded together live, to have an external perspective and areas for improvement) , so that you will be able to apply them immediately, and from the first session.

➤Progress following these sessions is noticeable from 2 to 3 sessions (*study 2026).

➤ Make your words a formidable asset. Ready to take things to the next level?

I offer tailored courses, in person or remotely, according to the needs of each student. For academic support, I adapt to the program followed by the child or adolescent, by deepening the concepts already covered, by re-explaining difficult points or by dissecting problematic themes.

For adults, I mainly teach the basics in Dutch, but I can adapt my lessons to different objectives. For example: learning the vocabulary for a new position, preparing for an exam (Selor, language certification), refreshing your knowledge before an interview, or improving your ability to communicate effectively in a professional or personal context. My approach is always flexible, student-centered, and aims to strengthen both understanding and self-confidence.

The course module is tailored to the student's needs.

A program overview will be presented during the first class.

I will guide you in developing your written and/or oral communication skills, adopting an approach grounded in the science of political communication, international relations, and the social sciences and humanities.

The goal is to teach you how to structure a clear, impactful, and persuasive message, while mastering various persuasion and negotiation techniques.

▪️ Political communication involves the creation and exchange of ideas and opinions among citizens, political leaders, public institutions, and related stakeholders, such as the media. It encompasses all discourse throughout the political process at the local, regional, national, and international levels, as well as how political information can be used for strategic purposes or to achieve political objectives. Those trained in political communication can work in fields such as diplomacy, public and private policy consulting, public relations, journalism, media and digital campaigns, market research, community organizing, lobbying, and other related sectors.

▪️ The techniques taught will allow you to gain confidence in both public speaking and the development of your strategic speeches and narratives.

▪️ But above all, to achieve your goals, it is essential to master the art of public speaking, that is, the ability to express yourself clearly and effectively before an audience. This generally refers to a formal, face-to-face speech in which a speaker addresses a group of people.

▪️ At the student's request, the course can also incorporate skills in marketing, promotion, digital optimization, and SEO, allowing you to acquire:
- An integrated digital marketing strategy, adapted to the context and objectives of your organization;
- The skills necessary to analyze and leverage data in order to make informed, strategic, and innovative decisions;
- A forward-looking vision of marketing, including the use of new digital channels and technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI) and chatbots; and
