About Me

Welcome !

My name is Mélissa. I am a recent graduate of Sciences Po Paris, where I earned a research Master’s degree in Comparative Politics.

I have several years of experience tutoring students and supporting them in their preparation for the International and French Baccalaureates. I teach French and English language courses, as well as humanities and social sciences, with a strong focus on academic skills and exam methodology.

My teaching approach is strongly influenced by the Sciences Po method, with a particular emphasis on methodology: structured thinking, clear problematisation, and rigorous writing. I help students analyse questions in depth, build coherent and well-supported arguments, and express their ideas with precision and confidence.

Every student is different; therefore, I place particular importance on adapting each class to the student’s specific needs, in order to ensure meaningful and lasting progress.

Alongside tutoring, I have been deeply committed to initiatives promoting equal opportunities and access to education. I worked with the education non-profit Prométhée Education, where I conducted workshops and seminars in French schools, and I am a member of the French Federation of Debate, which aims to make rhetoric, speechwriting, and the art of debate accessible to all.

Hello parents! My name is Sandra. I am a native English speaker from New York State. I have a USA teaching license and a Bachelor's Degree in Childhood Inclusive Education (Grades K-6 and Students with Disabilities) from the State University of New York at Fredonia. My experiences include teaching at primary international schools in Belgrade, Serbia for 2 years and 3 years at international schools in The Hague, Netherlands. I have worked at two IB primary schools. Alongside teaching at international schools, I have 8 years of experience teaching English. I also have experience teaching grade 1 and 3 in elementary schools in New York State. I have taught children from 2-17 years old and adults. My students range in levels from beginners who are new to learning English, to fluent English speakers that need support or would like to further excel or maintain their fluency. Based on my experiences, I have learned to adjust my teaching style based on different students' needs, cultures, socioeconomic backgrounds, and learning abilities.

Lessons are provided to children and teenagers. Lessons are customized to the learning needs of your child. Whether that be learning English for the first time or practicing improvement of speaking, reading, comprehension, pronunciation, listening, writing, grammar, etc. Lessons can be aimed towards learning a topic such as food, animals, sports, emotions, and more.

For children who are fluent English speakers, tutoring can be given to further excel in particular areas. Subjects that interest the student such as science, history or world topics can be incorporated into the lesson to broaden their knowledge. Support can also be provided in learning organizational skills, research, and mini projects for older children. I am available to help with studying, homework, or school projects. For online learning, I use a variety of platforms, websites, educational games, and e-books to reach the learning goals of my students. Additional homework can be provided if requested.

Depending on the students age, lesson duration is adjusted. If you are looking for lessons for siblings, please reach out to me to discuss the best schedule for your children. My aim is to create a positive and enjoyable learning environment for all my students.

I hope you can join my English lessons! Please reach out to me if you have any questions. I can provide my resume or reference letters if requested. Looking forward to hearing from you.

This class is about learning Tunisian Arabic to easily interact with Tunisians. Tunisian Arabic is not the first dialect you hear about when you start to learn Arabic, but it is indeed one of the most fascinating and useful, especially if you are working in Tunisia, your partner is Tunisian or you are into North African social studies.
It occurred to you to be told that Tunisian Arabic has no grammatical or syntactic rules because it's not real Arabic? Well, that's not true! I can reveal you some tips to speak and sound Tunisian even if you don't know anything about Arabic. We will talk, play, watch videos from Tunisian tv programs and learn about language and culture.

I also do transcriptions and translations of documents and videos into French and Italian for academic researchers, journalists, and entrepreneurs.

Learning and mastering a language requires hard work and can be difficult but not when you are having fun.
I give French and English tutoring sessions for individuals who want to better their language skills, get better grades, or even learn it from ́Scratch ́.
I make the tutoring sessions according to your goals and how you learn. The sessions are therefore completely personalized and include grammar, pronunciation, and conversation... All of that so you can achieve your goal whilst having fun and learning about the culture.

As a French student studying in The Netherlands, at Leiden University, I've been able to hear so many different languages in my everyday life. And I love giving some advice to my friends starting, currently learning or simply practicing French. Therefore, giving some French tutoring appears as a really gratifying experience, for both the tutor and the tutored!

French being my first language, the level of my classes can depend on the level of the student: from learning the very first basis of the language to high school-level essay writing, I'd love to share some of my culture and language through my classes.

My classes are open to children, teenagers, and young adults. They can be in English, French or both. Depending on what fits you the best!

Feel free to contact me if you are interested.
