About Me

Associate Professor of History, I taught for 7 years in France, in various high schools in the Paris region and at the Lycée International de Luynes (Aix-en-Provence). I was in charge of the European classes as well as the students of the British International Section (OIB). So I have not only the experience of high school requirements, but also the habit of international students, expatriates, bilinguals, etc., whose needs are sometimes specific, especially with regard to their link with their (s) culture (s) of origin and their orientation after the baccalaureate.
My training in History naturally led me to the teaching of History-Geography, but I also studied Philosophy at the Sorbonne. Besides, having taught in Great Britain and the United States, I have a perfect command of English.
I also have experience teaching art in high school. A graduate of Fémis (one of the two major public film schools in France), I have always pursued activities related to cinema, alongside my teaching and research occupations. In particular, I was a member for several years of the FIDMarseille selection committee, then of the Visions du Réel festival in Nyon. In high school, I was for several years a teacher and coordinator of the History of Arts option.
Based in Zürich, I dedicate myself to teaching in a bilingual German / English establishment, to my personal artistic projects and to my children.

I am a native Russian speaker and have a Master's degree from the Peoples' Friendship University of Russia, where I studied languages and history together with international students. Since foreign students did not possess the knowledge of the Russian language when they came to study, I worked with them as a tutor.

Thanks to this experience I know how to teach Russian to foreigners and will help you too to improve your level by applying specific methodologies. We will work on grammar and vocabulary. All lessons will be tailored exactly to your individual needs to help you progress quickly.

I look forward to meeting you!

The objective is that: the learner masters the English language (🎧listening-comprehension,🎤 conversation, 📚 reading, grammar-pronunciation, writing...). It helps him to have language skills like native speakers. 🥇

At the same time, the learner will be 🚴‍♀️dynamic and well supervised by professional tutors who listen.
The atmosphere is distinguished: 🔥learning, interaction, no routine, no stress.

The learning tools used; videos, audios, texts, articles, images, games, stories...

We are happy to help both adults and pupils/students. If you want to learn the English language (reading, grammar, oral conversation, written production,...) or you have homework to do, or competitions/tests to take, 🏆 contact us :)

For me, the best way to learn French is first through conversation. I believe that speaking about simple topics, personal interests, and subjects that truly motivate the student is essential. When learners talk about what they are passionate about, they feel more confident and engaged, and progress comes more naturally.
In a second step, I like to create personalized modules and materials adapted to each student. When I identify areas for improvement, I design specific exercises and activities to help them grow. However, I always keep the student’s needs and interests at the center of the learning process. My goal is to make learning French enjoyable, motivating, and meaningful.

Hi there! My name is Jana and I am excited to be your tutor! I teach English, Business English, French and Italian but my professional background is in renewable energy, sustainability and public policy. I always saw languages as a tool to open new opportunities and will be happy to guide you on your journey to fluency. Over the years, I have worked as a mentor and educator, helping students and young professionals develop their confidence, communication skills and academic or professional goals. I particularly enjoy helping people become more comfortable speaking and expressing themselves in a foreign language. As a teacher, I prefer a conversational and personalised approach. Rather than relying on textbooks, I focus on real-life communication and creating a relaxed environment where students feel comfortable practicing and making progress. If that's something that resonates with you, I will be happy to see you in my class.
