World Literature and Poetry: learn how to understand classics and develop your mindset.

Have you ever experienced being confused about the classics? How do you react when people around you passionately discuss a book, a poem that you do not understand, that you do not feel, that you find nothing extraordinary in? Does it make you feel different and more precocious? If so, then the rest of the world must be seriously mistaken as it continues paying tribute to a "masterpiece". If not, then your way of reading and thinking must be a part of the problem.
And I can help you with this situation. Whether you do not read at all or read all the time and all the books, all the stories sound alike to you. I will refresh your vision and your perception. Letters, words, and sentences will awaken for you.
Literature is art where both the creator and the consumer are artists. Be brave to open your soul up to new thoughts and trust me to help you in this process.

About Me

I am a graduate of the philological faculty of Lomonosov Moscow State University. I am qualified in world literature and specialize in the works of Bernard Shaw, Oscar Wilde, Lewis Carroll, and Charles Dickens in English literature. But my main area of interest is in Russian literature. I analyze the philosophy of the novels of Dostoevsky and Tolstoy, Chekhov's works, and the poetry of the silver age of Russian literature.
My thesis is based on the image of London in the modern fantasy genre, so I periodically touch on fanfiction.
I have experience in teaching and I try to motivate my students to get interested and proficient in literature.

Education

This year I am completing my Bachelor's degree in English Language and Literature at the Faculty of Philology of Lomonosov Moscow State University. My thesis field is in literature.

Experience / Qualifications

I have experience in teaching English and Russian as second languages and preparing for World literature and Russian literature exams.

Sofía
Clases de español, literatura o apoyo escolar con profesora de Argentina
Aprender un idioma es todo un desafío que requiere práctica y reflexión sobre el lenguaje. Mis clases están pensadas desde un enfoque comunicativo para que el conocimiento adquirido tenga sentido y utilidad en la vida cotidiana de los estudiantes. En el caso de los niños, habrá un gran componente lúdico, ya que es el modo de relacionarse con el mundo que tienen los infantes, y por ende su modo de aprender. Y en el caso de los adultos, se conversa para conocer intereses y preferencias. También se le da importancia al vínculo entre lenguajes artísticos, por lo que ocasionalmente se leen obras literarias hispanas. Siempre se trabaja con un material de base, que aunque no es necesario comprar, se da a conocer para tener como referencia. ¡Será un gusto conocerte y ayudarte con el aprendizaje de este gran idioma que es el español! ¡Nos vemos!

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.

Sasha
French for all level, including IB French with a native French speaker
I am a native-speaking french teacher, who has achieved a high 6 in IB french A level, self-taught. I believe in teaching french (and languages in general) through practice: we will speak french in every class while learning about grammar, and practising writing skills. If you are an Ib student, I can help you prepare for your exams, IAs and IOs and achieve the best possible marks. Having lived in France for a major part of my life, I gladly discuss french culture, history and literature with you if you are interested. I am all for making classes as enjoyable as possible !!! A little more about me, I have tutored a few students in French in the last few years, and I graduated from the IB in 2021 with 39 points in ETIS (ESPOO). I am to enter the University of Warwick in a Politics, Economics and Philosophy degree in the end of September.

Ilia
(I)GCSE English Literature / IB English Literature
Having difficulties analysing poems and prose in your (I) GCSE / IB English Literature course? Looking to amp your essays up a notch and finally get that A/A* or 6/7 that you have been dreaming of? I am here to help. The first thing to remember: though analysing works of literature isn't always fun, everybody can master the techniques of how to do it. But learning takes time, which the school teacher may often lack. Indeed, it has been my own experience that English teachers often choose width over depth, and so discussions are cut short for the sake of covering all elements of the teaching programme, leaving many interesting aspects of a particular work unexplored. Or sometimes it's just the attention that wanders off as the teacher is explaining these pesky concepts of "writer's voice", "writer's tone", "meter", "rhymescheme" and so on. Let me assure you: that, too, happens even to the best of us. What I can offer you is exactly what a teacher normally does not time for: exploring a work of literature in as much detail (both analytical and technical) as it takes to push the quality of your essays up to the desired level. My approach is informed by IB / (I)GSCE Eng Lit course guidelines to make sure that the quality of your answer would be developed in accordance with what examiners want to see. Armed with a deep passion for literature on the one hand (reading and writing poems and short stories are one of my favorite things to do) and knowledge of ways of critical analysis (obtained in IB English Lit and reinforced by philosophy courses on university level) which are of tremendous importance in literary analysis as well, I will show you how to deconstruct any piece, how to place it in its cultural context, and make educated guesses about the links between cultural context and the author's choice of stylistical devices. And best of all - unlike in the classroom, the learning experience is tailored to you (based on your way of learning / remembering) and delivered in a highly interactive way! The skills described above, coupled with general essay writing tips will lend authority and style to your summative essays and exam answers, boosting your academic confidence. Ready to leave unsatisfactory essays in the past? Then contact me today!
