Hello !
Are you an aspiring interpreter looking to learn consecutive singing or refine your technique? Do you want to train for a performance? You've come to the right place!
As a professional interpreter in Geneva, I offer my services to help you improve your skills.
I help you prepare for the conference interpreting diploma exams, so that you are ready and confident on the big day.
We will discuss the strategies to adopt depending on the type of discourse (real, educational, of varying difficulty, on all subjects), work on your presentation, tone, and of course on your expression in French, so that you can make the message your own in all circumstances.
Minimum level required: some basic note-taking skills are necessary for consecutive note-taking; we will develop your technique together if needed.
Languages offered: English to French, Spanish to French, and possibly French to English or Spanish (to practice technique rather than the language itself). Occasionally, you may be able to listen to me speaking from another language (B/C) into French (focusing solely on presentation and target language skills).
Extra information
It is possible to work from a language other than English, French, or Spanish to receive feedback on the target speech; in this case, I will likely ask you to bring material (a recorded speech in the desired language).

About Me
As a translator and conference interpreter, I have always been passionate about languages, culture, literature and social and current affairs.
For several years, I have been teaching French with pleasure and enthusiasm. I have had the opportunity to work as a French language assistant abroad, and I regularly give private lessons, particularly in conversation and exam preparation.
My background, both literary and linguistic, fuels my curiosity and my teaching style. I enjoy approaching French through a variety of themes—cinema, science, economics, gastronomy, contemporary culture, and much more.
Each exchange is an opportunity for me to share, discover and help my students progress in a caring and stimulating environment.

The date of the baccalaureate exam is approaching and you need to review the important concepts of this year, to work specifically on certain chapters or to have methods to organize yourself and revise effectively or to reduce your apprehension and your stress ?
I will suggest that you first take stock of your knowledge and your expectations, then work according to your needs, either theory or specific exercises, via white baccalaureates, DS, annals, etc.
I can also help you organize your revisions, give you advice to learn and memorize better, to reduce your stress and arrive on the day as calm as possible.
For many years, I have been helping students pass their exams whatever their difficulties (dys...), because I am convinced that with motivation and a good method, everyone can succeed!

I am currently Psychopedagogical Coordinator in a private school in Geneva.

I did a master's degree in special education at the University of Geneva and then I was a PhD student in the field of metacognition-develop learning methods to learn to learn better, learn strategies for learning. set of school subjects.

Working with metacognition is:

I) Develop knowledge that the learner has of his own intellectual functioning
► Strengths, weaknesses, likes and dislikes

II) Use metacognitive strategies
► Anticipation, planning, continuous and final control.

III) Generalization and transfer from one domain to another

A) Developing your cognitive abilities: Understanding of instructions, analysis and synthesis of documents knowing how to clarify a situation, solve a problem and process information, know how to take notes, summarize, report, memorize, share and formalize, but also to explore, innovate, search, discover, create and undertake to train.

b) To work its working method: Organization of the homework, preparation of the controls and evaluations.

c) Develop personal abilities: Learn how to manage your efforts, your involvement, your emotions, your time, your motivation to maintain, reinforce or reactivate the desire to learn as well as know how to emerge and take into account your project in its context and his relationship to others.

It is true that the philosopher is the friend of wisdom, but above all, he is someone who does not want to make mistakes in reasoning. Philosophizing is a way of reasoning and a way of solving problems that will never have a perfect and definitive solution. Knowing the distance between the Earth and the Moon is not a problem of philosophy, because it is enough to measure to solve it. On the other hand, knowing, for example, what justice is, is a problem of philosophy. A meter will not be able to help us know the answer. We must go about it differently, and in the courses I offer, I will teach you how.

You will learn

- text reading strategies
- case studies with the aim of learning from experts
- methodology in philosophy
- writing an essay
- writing a text commentary
- a work on the philosophers of your choice
- an overview of the history of philosophy
- the general culture necessary to be able to philosophize

I will adapt to your individual needs. Each course is tailor-made. We will analyze where your difficulties lie and together develop a course program that will make you perform as quickly as possible. The basic principle of the courses I offer is dialectics, like Plato's dialogues: reflecting together, making theoretical contributions, asking questions and seeking answers, and testing the validity of reasoning.

For the past 10 years, I have been teaching German using the philosophy methodology, having studied philosophy at the Master's level at Aix-Marseille University. It turns out that the analytical mind is very useful even outside the confines of philosophy. Today, there are even fields of activity such as management with philosophy or philotherapy. In recent years, some German students have asked me to also teach them philosophy courses, and that is why I decided to offer philosophy courses directly.

I look forward to meeting you during a first lesson.
