French private lessons for teenagers (middle/high school) and students (at university) with qualified French Language tutor

From 49.62 $ /h

I specialise in tutoring French to teenagers (middle or high school/ secondary school) and students (at university). My goal is to keep students challenged and motivated with a "can do" mentality. Often students loose their enthusiasm for a language because of multiple factors and I’m here to gradually help them get their motivation/enthusiasm/confidence back. ☺️

The tutoring is adapted to the student’s learning rhythm but also the school’s or university’s curriculum/schedule. In other words, the lessons are structured around the knowledge the student already has whilst helping him/her to progress in school or university and build his/her confidence.

A variety of topics can be covered while following a logical progression in learning the language. I also help with homework, etc...

I am Laura , a Spanish woman living in The Hague. I have been teaching and helping high school students with their homework and study methods since 2014 as a private tutor. I have experience as a language teacher in different schools in Madrid (extracurricular activities) for children between 3 and 10 years old. I work as a Spanish teacher since 2019 in various countries, helping numerous students to improve their speaking, listening and writing skills.

I studied Nutrition and Dietetics (4 years bachelor) at Complutense University of Madrid. Later and determined by my love for languages, I completed the BA in Linguistics in Leiden University, following the Brain and Cognition specialization, which focuses in how language and second languages learning works in a neural level.

Depending on the goal, the learning or lesson method is different. Normally, the first day I meet the student and we talk about what he or she expects and the topics we need to pay more attention. From that, I organise and structure a learning plan for reaching the desired goals (listening, speaking, writing, etc) or level (A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2).

I am a native Russian speaker and can teach Russian to English speakers. I can help you to practice grammar, speaking, pronunciation, listening, writing skills. Also can help with learning Russian from the scratch, starting with the alphabet.

During my lessons, I primarily teach my students not to be afraid to speak Russian. Before classes, I plan topics on which we can talk to expand our vocabulary, and be able to maintain a conversation on a variety of topics.

Also, classes are held in a communication format, so that students learn to understand Russian speech, to be able to ask the questions, reflect on the topic, etc.

Depending on the needs of the student, we study the fundamental grammar rules, which are most important for grammatical speech. To consolidate the material, we do various exercises and tests. Usually, these are texts with gaps that need to be filled. We also do oral exercises so that students can apply grammar rules not only in written assignments but also get used to applying them directly in their speech (which is sometimes a problem because we used to forget some rules in our spoken language).

Since Russian phonetics is quite complicated, I also select various exercises for diction, adapting them for each student (which is always a lot of fun).

I hope to see you on my lessons!

French for holidays, work, emigration or just for the pleasure of learning it better... We immerse ourselves in this beautiful language in my studio in the garden. In consultation, we determine the learning objective and the method that suits you best.

I offer online or face-to-face English lessons to non-native speakers. I work with the student to identify learning objectives and any areas of weakness and tailor the lesson accordingly. Areas covered during the lesson include, speaking, listening, reading, writing, grammar accent reduction.
I currently live in Den Haag, The Netherlands. In addition to private coaching, I also work for an online ESL company delivering English lessons to children across a range of age groups. In addition, I also work as an ESL proofreader and IELTS private tutor here in The Hague. I hold a BA (Hons) degree and have a CELTA qualification. Prior to a career in ESL English teaching, I worked in the UK national press for the Times and Financial Times newspapers. It was there I developed my proofreading and communications skills.
In my spare time, I write articles for magazines and have had feature stories published in The Telegraph magazine, The Daily Mail and a number of health magazines. I have also written two language books. The first, 'I Already Speak Speak French!' is an illustrated book for children that covers the etymology of many English words to their French origin (attached is a sample of it for your interest!). It has been translated for the French market into, 'I Already Speak English!' The second book is called, 'Learn Business English FAST!' which draws on a teaching methodology used for effective, fast learning that I used whilst teaching English for the international company, GoFluent.

As a French student studying in The Netherlands, at Leiden University, I've been able to hear so many different languages in my everyday life. And I love giving some advice to my friends starting, currently learning or simply practicing French. Therefore, giving some French tutoring appears as a really gratifying experience, for both the tutor and the tutored!

French being my first language, the level of my classes can depend on the level of the student: from learning the very first basis of the language to high school-level essay writing, I'd love to share some of my culture and language through my classes.

My classes are open to children, teenagers, and young adults. They can be in English, French or both. Depending on what fits you the best!

Feel free to contact me if you are interested.

I am available to help students from elementary to high school with their homework or exam preparation. I am very comfortable with history and geography, French, English and philosophy, as well as math and biology, but only for elementary and middle school students.
Having graduated high school with highest honors two years ago, I feel perfectly capable of sharing my knowledge and my joy of learning with students who need it. I have already given private tutoring sessions to students in their final two years of middle school and first year of high school, and their motivation grew every day!
I hope I can help you and your children.
