About Me
Translated using Google Translate. Click to view original.
Hello everyone :)My name is Nicolas. I was born in Geneva and grew up there until I was 25. I went to college at Emilie-Gourd where I obtained my maturity (equivalent to Bach in France). After that I took a year off during which I went to Vancouver to improve my English.
I then did a Bachelor in Geography and Environment at the University of Geneva. For my 3rd year I did an exchange in São Paulo, where I learned Portuguese.
Once I finished my Bachelor, I decided to travel around the world, with no return date. I left in February 2018 for South East Asia and spent 7 months there. In Vietnam I volunteered as an English teacher. It was then that I discovered my passion for teaching! So I followed an online training to obtain the TEFL certificate (Teaching English as a Foreign Language).
In the meantime, I returned to Brazil where I spent 7 months working there as a French and English teacher.
Back in Geneva in April 2019 I gave French lessons to more than twenty students in private, and I also worked as a substitute geography teacher in colleges.
I am now in Lausanne to do a Masters in geography at the University of Lausanne.
I offer much more than just a language course but a real exchange of culture and life experiences.
I am a very social person, calm, patient and communicative. I like challenges and new experiences.
My hobbies are skiing, kitesurfing, music, meditation and of course travel :)

Very, very great prepared with a really good sense for the level of the student. He adapts his course to your level and already had in the first lesson several ideas on how to work on each "issue". I'm very happy to learn french with him!

De technologie om je Frans te verbeteren. Lessen met een gecertificeerde native docent.
TECHNOLOGIEËN VOOR HET LEREN.
Hallo,
Mijn naam is Laurie en ik ben een onafhankelijke FLE-leraar, afgestudeerd in het Frans en Romaanse talen en literatuur sinds 2012. Ik heb vijf jaar ervaring onder mijn riem (in het buitenland en in België). Ik heb LangMethod gemaakt, een leermethode voor online cursussen.
De cursus omvat:
-Het materiaal (artikelen, video's, oefeningen van afbeeldingen en teksten, grammaticale theorie, links naar de oefeningen ...). Ik gebruik Google Doc, dus het beste is om een Gmail-adres te hebben om er toegang toe te hebben.
-De correctie van oefeningen buiten de les (de schriftelijke uitdrukkingen worden gecorrigeerd buiten de les, of met de student, volgens zijn behoeften).
-Toegang tot een applicatie (gratis) om woordenschat op uw smartphone te bestuderen.
-Een woordenschatblad - uitspraak - grammatica / vervoeging, verzonden na elke cursus.
-Indien nodig, een vocabulaireopname (voor beginners).
-De realisatie van online oefeningen en tests uit de verzonden vocabulairebladen.
-Motivatie, gelach, goed humeur :-)
Mijn methode:
- Het is gebaseerd op spreken.
-Voor grammatica gebruik ik een vraag / antwoord-methode (geleerd tijdens de training in het CERAN-centrum).
-We werken aan de uitspraak met de verbotonale methode (oefeningen om je stem te zetten, voor ritme, enz.). Ik zou je misschien zelfs laten zingen! :-)
-Alles gaat door het gesproken woord voordat het geschreven woord wordt doorlopen, maar ik pas me duidelijk aan aan de behoeften van de studenten.
-De cursus is een beetje anders voor kinderen en adolescenten: ik gebruik interactieve games en kaarten via de webcam.
Tot binnenkort!
Laurie

French private lessons by university graduate in Letters
Holder of a Master's degree in Letters and endowed with a solid experience in private lessons, I provide French lessons for students wishing to:
- consolidate their bases in grammar, spelling
- improve their language skills (allophone students)
- improve their speaking skills (conversation classes)
-profect the written expression
- prepare for ECR exams
- prepare for the written examinations at the end of the studies (maturity, certificate of completion)
- help with the writing of works of maturity (or other works of end of studies), of dissertation
- work on argumentative texts
- acquire a method to analyze literary texts
- learn how to perform bibliographic research
The course material is a Google Docs document that I create in which my explanations, possible links, exercises appear. By reading it regularly, progress will be faster. It can also be used in addition to other documents (files printed by school teachers and/or books) and has many advantages: automatic updating, downloadable on tablets and smartphones, simultaneous monitoring of what is writing.
For help with writing:
The objective is above all to acquire effective tools. The student will thus be able to learn to structure his ideas, argue coherently (and convincingly) and enrich his vocabulary. It is essential for me to have written work from the student between each lesson.
For analyzes of oral literary texts:
In order to optimize the time available (and to put ourselves in conditions closest to oral exams), we choose together an extract from a work that the student will have previously prepared before the lesson. This would take around 20 minutes at most, and ideally just a little before the meeting time. If necessary, I have the habit of taking a paragraph at random which would serve as a basis for analyzing a passage.
For the corrections of end of studies work:
so that the meeting with the student is at the most profitable, I ask him to send me his writings before the meeting.
Apart from my presence with the student, any course involves a preparation time before and after the lesson, including the work that I correct. My goal is to design an individualized course, so I take the time to write detailed comments on corrected work or tips to ensure maximum success for everyone.
For example, an editorial correction can easily be the subject of a detailed commentary of 4 typewritten pages.
For adults (FLE):
In order to optimally prepare the first ones, I take the initiative to inform myself in advance of their objectives / expectations. Whether to practice speaking in everyday life, the professional world or to practice oral presentations, I prepare either PPT or technical sheets in advance that I send by mail ( after booking on the website).
The other alternative is to make a PV of the course that I send (or that I print). Giving importance to keeping a written record on the one hand to better memorize the topics covered, on the other hand to better assimilate the spelling.
Of a general nature, a concrete situation that responds to the learner's needs is the starting point. From this situation, I address the essential grammatical points.

Learn English with pleasure and efficiency for levels A1 to B2
Polyglot, especially passionate about the English language, I wish to transmit my knowledge to learners from 13 years. I do not have a predefined method, we will define together that you want to refresh old knowledge or you are already well advanced. However, I try to give the course a maximum in English and like to vary the teaching aids, books, videos, songs, etc ... I learned English everywhere, but having a clear preference for British English, my vocabulary is leaning on that side. Finally, only one word: FUN, because learning a language must be a pleasure

Cours particuliers de français pour tous les niveaux : EN LIGNE
Les cours particuliers de français sont destinés aux élèves souhaitant:
- consolider leurs bases en grammaire, orthographe
- perfectionner leurs connaissances linguistiques (élèves allophones)
- perfectionner leur expression orale (cours de conversation)
-perfectionner l'expression écrite
- examens ECR
- se préparer aux examens écrits de fin d'études (maturité, certificat de fin d'étude obligatoire)
- une aide à la rédaction de travaux de maturité (ou autres travaux de fin d'études), de dissertation
- travailler sur des textes argumentatifs
- acquérir une méthode pour analyser des textes littéraires
- combler des lacunes
- améliorer leur orthographe
- se préparer aux examens oraux (maturité, certificats de fin d'études obligatoire)
- apprendre à effectuer des recherches bibliographiques
Pour l'aide à la rédaction:
L'objectif est avant tout d' acquérir des outils efficaces. L'élève pourra ainsi apprendre à structurer ses idées, argumenter de manière cohérente (et convaincante)et enrichir son vocabulaire.
Pour les corrections de travaux de fin d'études:
afin que la rencontre avec l'élève soit au maximum profitable, je lui demande de m'envoyer ses écrits avant la rencontre.
Hormis ma présence avec l'élève, tout cours implique un temps de préparation avant et après la leçon, notamment les travaux que je corrige. Mon objectif étant de concevoir un cours individualisé, je prends le temps nécessaire pour rédiger des commentaires détaillés sur un travail corrigé ou des conseils pour assurer un maximum la réussite de chacun.
À titre d'exemple, une correction de rédaction peut aisément faire l'objet d'un commentaire détaillé de 4 pages dactylographiées.
Pour les adultes (FLE):
Afin de préparer de manière optimale les premiers , je prends l'initiative de m'informer au préalable leurs objectifs/attentes. Que ce soit pour s'exercer à l'expression orale dans la vie quotidienne, le monde professionnel ou s'entraîner à des présentations orales, je prépare soit des PPT, soit des fiches techniques à l'avance que j'envoie par mail (après la réservation sur le site).
L'autre alternative est de faire un PV du cours que j'envoie (ou que j'imprime). Accorder de l'importance à garder une trace écrite permet d'une part de mieux mémoriser les sujets abordés, d'autre part de mieux assimiler l'orthographe.
D'ordre général, une situation concrète qui répond au besoin de l'apprenant est le point de départ. À partir de cette situation, j'aborde les points grammaticaux essentiels.
