Living languages for the real world! English (ESL) and Spanish (ELE) courses for all levels (academic, professional, leisure, etc.)

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Living languages are my PASSION and soon they can be yours!! 🇻🇪🇺🇲🇨🇵

We're not going to lie to each other: mastering a second (or third) language isn't always easy. Even when you are 200% MOTIVATED, the project can take well over a year and sometimes several. This is normal, since it is not a simple work of memory, but a very complex COGNITIVE PROCESS and our brain needs practice, of course, but above all time for the new language to develop. .

But none of that means it's impossible! Far from it! It's just that there is no magic recipe: you have to put your HEART into it, concentrate and manage to be CONSTANT.

To ACCOMPANY and HELP you in your process of learning (or improving) SPANISH or ENGLISH, I offer personalized lessons, at home or via webcam, completely adapted to YOUR starting LEVEL and your GOALS.

Well beyond the "communicative" approach, I offer you a HYBRID method which not only takes into account the different learning styles (deductive/inductive; dialectical; divergent) but which is above all based on very particular attention to the aspects that condition learning (in particular the PERSONALITY of the learner and his socio-affective particularities).

Moreover, we will work with a fairly eclectic mix of tools and media (printed, audiovisual, self-constructed, etc.) guided by a co-constructed work plan (the learner always remains the main actor in the process) , well structured but flexible enough to be able to adapt to the needs and academic/professional constraints of Parisian (and Ile-de-France) life.

So, if you want to LEARN, PROGRESS, DISCOVER or simply HAVE FUN with "your" languages, you've come to the right place. I am eager to discover your NEEDS, your OBJECTIVES and your DESIRES concerning the rich and exciting world of learning foreign languages.

About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
GOOD MORNING !! How is it going? ¿Qué cuentan?

My name is Victor and I am a linguist specializing in foreign language acquisition, interpreter (consecutive/simultaneous) and translator (technical, scientific and literary), with over 20 years of teaching experience, with experience in the public sector (national, higher education), private (training centers, tutoring, etc.) as well as in associations.

I was born in Venezuela (to a Spanish-speaking mother and a French-speaking father) and grew up in the United States (in the heart of the American Midwest) where I completed my higher education and began my professional career as a teacher and interpreter/translator. I moved to France (in Paris) about fifteen years ago where I have since devoted myself to teaching modern languages, interpretation and translation in the public service and socio-medical mediation with non-French speakers. .

I'm passionate about literature (especially poetry) and music—obviously Latin America is still my favourite. I myself continue to learn other Latin languages, especially Catalan and Italian.

Support in English, learn English at your own pace
English, although it is an easier language than some others, can, at times, prove to be complicated. Bilingual following my childhood spent in England, I offer support from elementary school to high school (and more), whatever your level (basic or not). Whether it is for a school aid or to better understand English, speak it, review basics that have not been completely acquired, build sentences, write paragraphs, analyze words and use them, improve pronunciation, spelling, translating, or just conversing in English ..., I offer my help. My services in learning English are quite broad: we will analyze what you are missing and I will adapt the course according to your needs, so that it is no longer a problem.

Private French and grammar lessons for middle or high school students
Hello, I am currently a second year master's student in comparative literature at Sorbonne University (Parsi IV). I also completed a DESS in Teaching French as a Second Language (FLE). This year I am preparing for the teaching competitions (CAPES, Agrégation de Lettres Modernes). I have been giving private lessons for three years now, allowing me to gain experience day by day. I also gave FLE lessons to students and adults as part of two linguistic services (CREIPAC and Groupe LDL). I give Grammar, English and French lessons to those needing academic support in these subjects. Concerning my course in English, I completed a Preparatory Class for Grandes Ecoles (hypokhâgne/khâgne) which allowed me to acquire a C1 level in English. I can therefore teach the basics of language in production, expression and comprehension. My lessons will adapt to the student's expectations. We will start from its difficulties to move towards new notions of grammar, conjugation and literary culture. These private lessons can be accompanied by homework help and in-depth study of the subjects covered in class. I listen to the student and the family to understand the specific needs of each.

Audrey
Help with homework, acquisition and mastery of knowledge
Hello, my name is Audrey! (English Bellow) I am a student in international relations and foreign languages (Chinese) at INALCO. My studies led me to work on many and very diverse subjects but above all to learn and quickly master many concepts and knowledge! To achieve my goals, I had to develop tips and use methods. So I know how daunting, frustrating and even impossible to achieve it can sometimes seem. Also, I propose to accompany you to help you, whatever your level (primary, college, high school, higher education), to achieve your goals without being discouraged. I had the opportunity in the past to help children and adolescents in their learning. It is true that not everyone has the same abilities or the same appetite for studies, but everyone is driven by a passion, a center of interest. Use them to learn! For instance : You or your child are passionate about music, let's create a melody to make you remember this grammar lesson on which you have been stuck for several days so that it definitely fits in your mind. Passionate about drawing? Let's create memory cards together so that you artistically memorize all the dates related to the First and Second World Wars, for example. Learning does not exclusively involve cramming, it is also and above all about understanding the content and confidence (in oneself and in one's skills)! My sessions aim to offer the student, young people a warm space in which they feel confident to learn, try and sometimes fail. Each course is unique and adapts to your needs. I am currently in Paris and I can move if necessary. Do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. I will be happy to talk with you about your expectations, your objectives and my working method. Looking forward to help you! See you soon Hello my name is Audrey! (English Bellow) I am a student of international relations and foreign languages (Chinese) at INALCO. My studies have led me to work on many different subjects but above all to learn and master many concepts and knowledge quickly! To reach my goals, I had to develop tricks and use methods.

For example: You or your child are passionate about music, let's create a melody to make you remember that grammar lesson you've been stuck on for several days so that it becomes permanently embedded in your mind. Are you a drawing enthusiast? Let's create together memory cards so that you can artistically memorize all the dates linked to the First and Second World Wars for example. Learning is not only about cramming, it is also about understanding the content and confidence (in yourself and your skills)!
