English as a foreign language - academic and professional purpose

From 53.43 $ /h

Hello!

I am Brazilian and I have lived in Lyon since June 2023. I have solid training in the field of languages and literature, with a master's degree in Brazilian literature and a doctorate in American literature. I have been to the United States several times, the last time as a researcher at Princeton University, for a year (2019-2021) as part of my doctoral training. I have a lot of experience teaching languages and literatures, but currently I work in the hotel industry on a permanent basis, and I am looking for a few students to give private lessons.
My working method always focuses on the student, knowing that everyone learns in a different way. In addition, I understand language as a dynamic and living phenomenon, which is why I think that teaching a language is also sharing a culture.

Hello everyone and welcome to my English and or German lessons taught in group. I organise English and German lessons for children and teenagers and separately adult English group lessons (beginners to advanced). For children and teenagers, interactive activities are used as a way to motivate them, help them remember what they have learned in class and make sure they will be able to apply their language skills in real life context.
For the adults lessons, depending on what the students are willing to learn, we can have discussions based on the news, some grammar, writing... I am open to any suggestions, just tell me your needs and I am going to adapt the next lessons for you. If you wish to invite your friends and make a group with them, just let me know and I will allocate you a time slot.

For private English lessons, please have a look at my other advertisements. The German lessons are usually for beginners/ intermediate (exceptionally advanced levels in German can be organised only if there is a high-demand).

Don't hesitate to contact me should you have further questions. It would be a huge pleasure to integrate you in one of my classes. :-) Lessons usually last 50 minutes.

Hello,

I see education as an exchange.

I love to share and learn with students, therefore the lessons are not only about me teaching you but also about you bringing something to the class.

It is important to specify that if you have any kind of documents, books, workbooks or printed lessons please bring everything so we can use it during lessons.

Kind regards

Vincent

I have 15 years of experience teaching IB, MYP, Key Stage 3, A-Level, IGCSE Language and Literature, and World Literature. I have taught in multiple countries worldwide. My expertise lies in exam preparation, but I also teach English as an Additional Language and work with younger students. Over the past six years, all my students have passed their exams, with 80% achieving a 6 or 7 in the IB Diploma. My teaching approach is relaxed and student-focused. I look forward to working with you!

With 4 years of teaching experience and having grown up in the United States, I offer English courses designed to meet the needs of post-baccalaureate students preparing for an exchange abroad, as well as professionals wishing to strengthen their language skills in an international context.

My approach is resolutely hands-on: each session focuses on practical language practice through real-life scenarios, oral exchanges, targeted exercises and a variety of materials.

My method aims to establish learning habits tailored to each profile. Whether visual, written, or reading-based approaches, instruction is personalized based on each learner's preferences and the most effective memorization method. This adaptation optimizes comprehension, fluency, and knowledge retention.

The objective: to enable each student or professional to acquire a natural, effective and lasting mastery of English, to evolve with confidence in an English-speaking environment.

Having completed a degree in LLCE English, I then worked in an international company where interactions and content were most often in English, both written and spoken.
I give English lessons to children and adults.

I offer English and Turkish lessons for all levels, from beginner to advanced. My approach is personalized: I adapt to the needs, objectives, and pace of each student to make learning both effective and motivating.

I rely on proven methods (grammar, comprehension, expression) while incorporating more engaging and current resources: videos, TV series clips, articles, games, and real-life scenarios. The goal is to make solid progress while developing genuine fluency in both spoken and written French.

I pay particular attention to ensuring that my students enjoy learning, gain confidence, and acquire the language naturally.
