Premier cours mais déjà très prometteur. Professeur qui semble très efficace.
He’s a very good teacher
Nick est un excellent professeur qui a su parfaitement adapter ses cours aux besoins que j'ai exprimés. Ses cours sont variés et ne manquent pas d'humour. Il laisse une grande place à l'expression orale ce qui permet de bien travailler cet aspect et de progresser rapidement. J'en suis pleinement satisfait et le recommande vivement.

Courses in language, culture and Italian literature
I'm afraid my letter is a bit long, but it's worth reading. It's early 2012 that I hear about an Italian scholarship. So, after my baccalaureate, I decided to take the steps to continue my studies in Italy. For this you had to enroll in a private Italian language school in partnership with the Embassy of Italy in my country Gabon, take Italian lessons for 6 months after which you are subject to an examination that you must to validate for obtaining your visa was one of the conditions. On August 27, 2018 I flew to Italy aboard Lufthansa a German company, obviously equipped with a student visa that I would add to my file so that there is no doubt. I dream of becoming an accountant as one of my uncles, having a bac economy too, for me it sticks. But my mother who is a teacher, inviting me to study to teach Italian, I do not tell myself why not, tale of the shortage of Italian teacher in my country, so everything is easy for them: integration into the public service etc. In addition it is a language that I like since very small, so I decided to embark on this adventure After my License I decided to try my luck as exchange student (Erasmus) in Geneva. So I moved to Geneva in September 2017, but unfortunately Italy removes my scholarship, I unfortunately combined with money problems, but with the help of my parents I was able to finish 'year. I propose myself as a teacher of language, culture and Italian literature, share my modest journey with you.

Private Tutoring in German and English, Help with Homework and Exams in Geneva
Hey everybody, I am currently in my second semester of the Master's programme in Political Economy at the University of Geneva. Last year, I received my Bachelor in European Studies at Maastricht University. Growing up bilingual, I speak Croatian and German fluently, and I studied French, English, Latin and ancient Greek during my school years. While living abroad for several years and doing my university programs in English, I speak English fluently. I have a lot of experience tutoring and helping children with homework or exam preparations since I have been working as a tutor for five years now.

Amélie
Courses in French, Dutch, English, Mathematics, History, International Relations, Law, Science and Geography.
I am a Belgian (flamish) and French student who just completed a master in International Law, at the University of Amsterdam. I did my Bachelors in International Relations at the University of Geneva (magna cum laude) and a 6 months-exchange at UCSB (University California Santa Barbara). I also did my secondary education in an international high school in France, where I specialized in sciences (18/20 for the final scientific baccalaureate). The classes I had there were given out in French, English, Dutch and Spanish. My previous tutoring experience: 2021/2022: I was working at "bijlesthuis", a dutch tutoring institution. My students were mostly adults who were seeking to improve their levels in french, dutch and english. In parallel, I was also giving classes to other students through apprentices. 2021 Through Apprentus and other websites, I helped several younger students (5-15 years old) with improving their skills (notably in maths and french), this was in Bern and Geneva. 2017/2020: I worked for three years in a tutoring institution in Geneva ( called ARA), where I was mainly teaching French, mathematics and English. During this time I also worked for two years in a Private School (Florimont), where I was taking care of different classes of students (11-16 years old). I was responsible for helping out the students with their homework (in various subjects). I can teach in French, Dutch and English. I love teaching and helping students with progressing and learning new skills. I am a flexible, calm and positive person! Looking forward to meeting you! Amelie
