Hello!

I am a young sociologist currently based in Paris. Do you want to improve your French or your English? Need to hone your conversation or writing skills for the job? Are you determined to read Marcel Proust or Virginia Woolf as closely as possible to their writing?

To support you in these different steps, I offer private lessons in Paris! My lessons are personalized and fun. Based on your learning objectives and time requirements, we jointly shape the content, format and methods of the courses.

In addition to six years of experience teaching French and English, I obtained a bachelor's degree from McGill University in Canada (curriculum entirely in English) as well as a master's degree from Sciences Po Paris (curriculum in French and English).

My classes are only for intermediate or advanced level students in French or English. Indeed, not having followed FLE or ESL training, I cannot claim to teach you French or English if you want to start from scratch in one of these two languages.

Intermediate and advanced students, I will be happy to help you improve your oral comprehension, conversation, written comprehension and writing in French or in English. We will choose the themes and areas of your choice for this: economy and politics, societies and traditions, arts and culture, sports and everyday life, etc.

About Me

(English version below)

Having lived in 9 different countries (France, Germany, Belgium, Hungary, Poland, Philippines, Kyrgyzstan, Norway and Canada), I have been immersed since childhood in a multilingual and multicultural world. Communicating with and adapting to others are skills that I have acquired and worked on as I move, in addition to various language skills. I am therefore particularly able to understand the process of learning a foreign language and the difficulties that may arise for students depending on their mother tongue.

I am particularly passionate about the words “untranslatable” from one language to another, the particularities of each of them, and the cultures from which they emanate. So I appreciate any opportunity to share this passion with others around me!

I am :
1- perfectly bilingual in French and English (native speaker in both languages),
2- speak Russian fluently and read German, and
3- have some knowledge that I want to deepen in Polish, Hungarian, Dutch, Spanish, Norwegian and Kyrgyz.

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.

I offer you a new learning experience.

To the uninitiated, a grammar book seems to be written in another language because the meaning of the words is incomprehensible. In a down-to-earth way, I'll translate the grammar into familiar words. With my tailor-made teaching you will accelerate your learning while having a positive mindset.

You can book a complete course with regular sessions or individual lessons to overcome a specific problem, such as pronunciation or a particular point in grammar.

Learning a foreign language is not a linear process that consists of memorising a list of words, and speaking a foreign language is not an oral translation exercise.

There are two types of approaches to acquiring knowledge:

When asked what year follows 1999, you can immediately answer 2000 without having to think for a long time and, above all, without having memorised each number individually, starting with 1, 2, 3 ... You know that numbers are formed according to a certain pattern. With only ten digits, you can form an infinite number of numbers and always know which number comes next.

When it comes to the alphabet, words and sentences, it's more or less the same, but school pedagogy, school textbooks and regular lessons still follow the rote learning approach. In the lessons I propose, you will learn to use patterns because this is more efficient and faster.

Learning is easy, but unlearning bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible.

My offer is aimed at both teenagers and adults who want to acquire a solid foundation of the Latin language without the time-consuming diversions of absurd school methods.

I offer individual or group lessons for Latin. The methods are based on cognitive science and, in particular, comparative linguistics. My flexible programme can be tailored to your individual needs.

What is particularly important to me:

motivating my students and help them establish a learning rhythm;
encouraging their creativity;
helping them become more familiar with the language;
teaching them the letters and their sounds;
strengthening their memory by training their phonological loop;
teaching sentence building plans instead of memorising sentences;
explaining how language works so that my students can become independent as quickly as possible.

I look forward to meeting you.
