I specialise in tutoring English for Second language learners. I am a first language English speaker and have a diploma in English.
My aim is to improve the fluency of students. Having learnt French as a second language, I found it very easy to understand people but my speaking fluency took a long time to develop. Total fluency is the ultimate goal. However, I will focus on progressing and improving your fluency and not to "become fluent" which is often the misconception with learning another language. Progression and improvement is the aim.

Goals:
- Improve fluency (speaking and understanding)
- Improve writing English (this I will do with recommended reading and writing tasks, a lot of which I have gained from teaching English in a lycée)
Extra information
I can come to your home or a public place.
I have a very flexible schedule. Nights, weekends and Wednesdays.

"Thanks to Kathryn, I managed to get a very good mark on the TOEFL English test! Kathryn quickly found my weak points and allowed me to make huge progress on all aspects of the English language ( reading, listening, speaking and writing.) Very friendly and welcoming, she gave me the confidence to speak English through a lot of exercises. "

Hello !
I have always been passionate about languages, about discovering the world and its different cultures.
I lived in London for a year and traveled for 6 months in Latin America where I was completely immersed. I took classes and lived with locals during all my experiences. As a result, I was able to acquire a very good level quickly.

I decided to share my knowledge with you to help you increase your academic average, prepare for an exam and be able to communicate with a huge number of people around the world.

My program will adapt according to the student:

- I offer a first interview where we can assess together the level and the objectives sought and then prepare a program adapted to your needs.
- Need for written skills to work on: grammar exercises, conjugation, written production on concrete subjects
- Need for oral skills: oral comprehension exercises via music, conferences that interest you and conversations about various subjects between you and me

My classes will be a guaranteed pleasure. My goal is to pass on to you my love for languages, to make learning the language fun and enjoyable while actively progressing.
