About Me

A little introduction about myself:

1) I am a native Mandarin speaker, born in Guangzhou, China.
2) I have been living in French speaking countries for more than 7 years ( France and Switzerland). I also passed the highest foreign language test of French: DALF C2.
3) I speak fluently English as I've grown up in an international environment.
4) I was graduated with honors from Ecole Hôtelière de Lausanne (Ranked as the best hospitality school in the world) holding a degree of Bachelor of Science in International Hospitality Management.
5) I've been doing touristic-related translation and interpretation since 2016.

Here are the Chinese courses I provide:
1) Standard Chinese: suitable for beginners to advanced students who have a long-term learning plan on Chinese learning or need to attend a Chinese exam HSK.
2)Spoken Chinese: Suitable for beginners to advanced students who want to mainly focus on communication skills.
3) Business Chinese: Suitable for beginners to advanced students who want to establish their business in China or have Chinese partners.
4) Children Standard Chinese: Suitable for kids up to 4 years old or teenagers who are interested in discovering Mandarin and Chinese culture.
5)Chinese to travel: Get ready to travel and survive in China

I am also a French tutor. What are my competitive advantages ?
After 7 years living in French Speaking countries as a foreigner and passed the most difficult French language test, I can explain French grammar and syntax in a way that MAKES SENSE to a foreigner. I can instinctively understand what you're struggling with, because I've been where you've been years ago.

I offer different course programs adapted to each level:
1) General French (A1-C2) & Business French
2)Preparation for DELF & DALF exams ( From level A1-C1)
3) French for kids ( Minimum at 4 years old ) / teenagers
4) French to travel -ready for traveling this romantic country ?

Education

I am graduated from Ecole Hôtelière de Lausanne. I had studied interpretation at University of Paris 10. Now I work for an international organization in Lausanne.

[ONLINE] Preparation for DELF B1 / B2 and DALF C1 / C2. French as a foreign language course
My course is intended for non-French speaking adults of all levels (beginner, intermediate, advanced). I use an effective learning method adapted to each student. I use various educational documents, such as press articles, courses specially prepared for the student with targeted exercises, oral comprehension, written expressions ... Each daily lesson includes the progressive learning of grammar, spelling, pronunciation, conjugation and vocabulary. I also focus on oral and written expression.

Thomas
English and French courses (oral and written comprehension and expression)
Everyone learns in a unique way, I adapt my teaching and my courses to the needs and difficulties of each person. As a teacher, I provide methods for analyzing documents as well as helping with the development of grammar and even speaking. I offer courses for all ages, for academic or simply personal needs with the aim of improving daily communication, both oral and written.

Elise
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.

Laurie
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 NB: Mogelijkheid om een ​​factuur te maken voor particulieren of bedrijven.

Chinese (mandarin) lessons for adults and kids of all levels
I have been giving chinese lessons for more than 10 years. Before that, I was a radio broadcaster and a journalist in China, hence I have a perfect pronunciation of the official mandarin, without any accent. It provides my students the best conditions to learn chinese, as the tone you give to words when you speak chinese as a foreigner is of great importance if you want to be understood by natives. I have a strong working experience helping students preparing their HSK exam, I also often teach diplomats, to help them acquire the necessary skills and understand properly the vocabulary specific to their job. I also love to work with kids, as I was a mandarin teacher for 2 years in an international school in Singapore. I give them a playful learning environment and use fun learning methods, so even the youngest can stay focused!

Jean-Luc
Philosophy and French. Reflection and expression. Openness and rigor.
Philosophy lessons: in the context of individual training, the teaching of philosophy contributes to the development of sensitivity, fine judgment, logic and personal responsibility, but not only. These qualities indeed take a major place in the understanding, even in the adequacy of the man and the society, at the same time by the recognition of different cultural and social horizons and by the essential contribution of the movement of the thought philosophical, which is determined by the exercise of conversion and the logical effort of thought. French lessons: education requires listening, understanding, and presence. It is from this aspect, characteristic of pedagogical support, that the link with the objectivity of acquired knowledge and technical content must emerge. Thereby, within the framework of an individual training, it is a question of combining the writing, the reading, the spelling, the grammatical logic with the aspirations specific to each one. Because learning French can be a joy for those who find an interest in the game of communication.

Luna
Student at the gymnasium who offers your child help with homework, learning to work and getting organized.
After having myself finished compulsory school in Vaud in the pre-gymnasium course with very good exam results, I offer your child different working methods in order to find the one that will be the right one for her or for him. It is not always easy to learn to memorize German vocabulary, to organize oneself, to express oneself in writing or even to not lose one's means in the middle of the test, which is why I will do my best to communicate, discuss, share the different techniques that have been beneficial to me during my schooling. The idea is to bring my help to your child but above all to give him the means to succeed by himself or by herself. Talk about how to find motivation, stress management and of course organization in general. As for my background, I took the Italian option for three years in secondary I, a language that I already spoke a little in my family. I am someone who appreciates literature and expression in the three languages that I master the most, that is to say; Italian, English and French of course. I offer lessons of one to two hours depending on your child's needs, at your home (in Lausanne) or at the library of La Sallaz as well as that of La Riponne.
