About Me
I started out my professional life as a teacher of French & English to native and non-native secondary school students in the United States and in Switzerland (1982-1987).Thanks to my language skills, I was subsequently head-hunted and offered a position as a sales rep in the hospital infection control field in 1987. I have been a business executive since and today offer language coaching as part of my professional focus.
I like to teach French & English and tailor teaching materials and content to balance grammar, understanding and speaking the language to meet the student's level, needs and expectations.
My training and coaching method is focussed more on business professionals needing practice, or to perfect their usage skills in specific areas, but it can also suit adults looking to improve their general understanding and spoken level of French or English.
Bearing in mind that fun is a key element to learning, I adapt the content, scope of the training and length of the sessions to the interests & needs of my students.
Education
-English & French GCE 'A' Levels (UK, 1977)-Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science (1982)
-Completed various marketing courses in German & English at ZfU (Zürich Freie Universität, 2005-2007)
-Trainer's certificate as a sales training facilitator from The Brooks Group 'IMPACT' Sales Training (2013)
Experience / Qualifications
-Taught French & English fresh out of university (1982-1987) in the United States and in Switzerland.-Spent 30 years as a successful sales and marketing executive working for for Swiss, French, Danish, Finnish & US companies.
-Lived 30 years in Switzerland, 8 years in France, but also in , the UK, Germany and Denmark.
-Studied and worked across cultures, doing business and communicating on a daily basis in English, French, German & Italian.
-As a sales executive, I managed teams of up to 100 people and understand the challenges business professionals have in addressing the expectations and needs of their teams.
-Set up own consulting company in 2018, offering various business related services. These extend to teaching and coaching French & English for business and general knowledge purposes.
-As a human being, I enjoy the cultural, culinary and social advantages of communicating in several different languages.
-As a modern European, I believe we owe it to ourselves to learn at least one other EU language and to perfect those we already have!

Experienced private teacher gives private lessons in all college / high school subjectsI hold a Scientific Baccalaureate mention Very Good.
These years have allowed me to acquire methods essential to academic success that I can transmit even to younger students, methodology being the key to success. I was also able to acquire certain skills in mathematics, history, geography, French and even in languages mainly Spanish and still have the knowledge for support in scientific subjects other than mathematics. These years have also allowed me to speak with ease in order to transmit knowledge (3 oral per week in preparation that helps).
COURSES: Regarding my way of giving lessons, this year and last year I gave lessons to more than 20 high school students and a dozen college students and therefore know well the programs mainly of terminal ES and second. I have prepared many students for the French baccalaureate and other subjects. In addition, I will be inspired by my own experiences and what has worked for me while being aware of the difference of each and therefore will also do according to the child after analyzing his strengths and weaknesses. I will go over his homework with him to improve and prepare him for future exams and follow up throughout the year. the most important thing is to follow the pupil over a long period in order to be able to develop him.
AVAILABILITY: Given that I am on an internship, I am mainly available on weekends, at any time of the day (except punctual impediment).

Non-formal Latin classes. Multilingual teacher with 10 years of experience. Pronunciation, historical linguistics, semantics.Contrary to popular belief, learning Latin is not like learning the phone book by heart.
I offer you Latin lessons that are unlike any other. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches:
If you take the train back and forth every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options:
1) Learn the schedules by heart.
2) Note that the train arrives every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m.
In school pedagogy, in study notebooks and in ordinary courses, it is the first approach which is adopted - in the courses that I offer you, it is the second because it is more economical and faster.
My offer is aimed at both students and adults who want to learn the Latin language or deepen their knowledge without time-consuming detours through the insanities of school methods which do not produce results.
Learning is easy but unlearning what has become a bad habit is extremely difficult. All the more important it is to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. With my tailor-made teaching you will accelerate your learning in a positive state of mind.
I offer individual or group Latin lessons (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive sciences and in particular historical linguistics.
What will not be the subject of the course:
learn lists of verbs;
learn lists of nouns with their gender;
learn words with their translations;
memory card game;
doing school exercises;
follow the program in a notebook;
impose French grammar on the Latin language.
What matters to me in particular:
motivate my student and give him a learning rhythm;
encourage creativity;
make friends with language;
letters and their sounds
strengthen your memory by working on the phonological loop;
teach construction plans instead of having people learn sentences by heart;
explain how the language works to make my student independent as quickly as possible;
breaking preconceived ideas such as the gammatical gender would have a link with the biological gender, the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, the verbs would be irregular, the declension would be random and therefore to be learned with each verb... ;
place practice at the center and articulate grammar around practice.
In the context of a first course, you can get a well-founded idea of my pedagogy.
I look forward to meeting you.

Spanish & English Lessons with Erika in Belgium :)Teaching is my passion, and as a native speaker, I've had the pleasure of connecting with students worldwide, starting from my experiences in the Czech Republic where I used to teach English to children.
