Spanish classes and small cultural discovery

I offer you a German course that is not like the others. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches: If you travel back and forth by train every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options: 1) Memorise the timetable. 2) Realise that the train comes every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m. In school pedagogy, in textbooks and in normal lessons, the first approach is used - in the course I am offering you, it is the second approach because it is more economical and faster. My offer is aimed at both pupils and adults who want to learn the German language without time-consuming detours through the madness of fruitless school methods. Learning is easy, but unlearning things that have become bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, with my customised lessons you will greatly accelerate the learning process while having a positive attitude. I offer German lessons for individuals or groups (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive science and historical linguistics in particular. My modular programme can be adapted on a case-by-case basis. The converging point of these modules is your independence in spontaneous conversations in real life. What will not be covered in the course: learning lists of verbs; learning lists of nouns with articles; learning words with their translations; flashcards; doing school exercises; following the syllabus of a booklet; imposing the English grammar on the German language. What is particularly important to me: to motivate my student and to give him a learning rhythm; to encourage his creativity; to befriend him with the language; the letters and their sounds; to strengthen the memory by training the phonological loop; to teach blueprints instead of memorising sentences; to explain how the language works in order to make my student independent as quickly as possible; to eliminate common preconceptions, such as that 'der' would mean masculine and 'die' feminine, that the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, that verbs would be irregular, that declension would be random and therefore would have to be learnt with each verb...; to put practice at the centre and only deal with grammar where necessary. A first lesson will give you a sound idea of my pedagogy.

TECHNOLOGIES FOR LEARNING. Hey, My name is Laurie and I am an independent FLE teacher, graduated in French and Romance Languages and Literatures since 2012. I have five years of experience under my belt (abroad and in Belgium). I created LangMethod, a learning method for online courses. The course includes: -The material (articles, videos, exercises from images and texts, grammatical theory, links to the exercises...). I use Google Doc so it's best to have a Gmail address to access it. -The correction of exercises outside of class (the written expressions are corrected outside of class, or with the student, according to his needs). -Access to an application (free) to study vocabulary on your smartphone. -A vocabulary sheet - pronunciation - grammar / conjugation, sent after each course. -If necessary, a vocabulary recording (for beginners). -The realization of online exercises and tests from the sent vocabulary sheets. -Motivation, laughter, good mood :-) My method: - It's based on speaking. -For grammar I use a question/answer method (learned during the training at the CERAN center). -We work on pronunciation with the verbotonal method (exercises for setting your voice, for rhythm, etc.). I might even make you sing! :-) -Everything goes through the spoken word before the written word, but I clearly adapt to the needs of the students. -The course is a little different for children and adolescents: I use interactive games and cards via webcam. See you soon! Laurie NB: Possibility to create an invoice for private individuals or companies.

For children in Nursery, Primary or Middle School, tutoring can take different forms: 1) Support (primary, college) to overcome a specific difficulty over several sessions (reading, spelling, scanning, calculations, English, etc.) 2) Regular support over time (primary, middle school): monitoring throughout the program to consolidate skills and aim for progress, support for a foreign child, learning to read, 3) Specific preparation (primary, middle school): writing a presentation, speaking in public, preparing for tests, organizing your work, etc. 4) for early childhood: developing knowledge of sounds, numbers, introduction to reading. We can sometimes go very far depending on the child by developing the notions of addition and subtraction. 5) Learning to read: consolidate fluent reading or even fully develop learning to read. Bring a learning that aims at the same time a fast reading but also a good comprehension of the texts. The methods and tools I use: • Evaluation of the child in his knowledge and his ability to learn • Proposal of objectives and timetable • Use of French pedagogical manuals (“Tools for French”, “Tools for Maths”...), combined with more specific methods and tools (Montessori, Singapore method in maths,...) • Bring the concept, by cutting by level of difficulty according to the student • Propose written and oral exercises/games • Aim to freeze and systematize knowledge to enable the child to achieve autonomy. - For early childhood: pedagogy focused mainly on games and fun activities. Use of suitable Montessori-type materials. Tutoring cannot be reduced to support for evening homework, it is an active approach for the child to gain self-confidence and pleasure in learning.

Over the years, I have learned to customize courses according to the needs and interests of my students. I am constantly trying to improve my teaching method by looking for new materials to make the class more entertaining.

Since then, I have been giving tutoring lessons in English, French and Spanish to children, teenagers and adults to fill gaps or teach them a new language. Passing on my passion for languages ​​and helping students communicate properly blossoms professionally. Since I have studied languages ​​myself, I know exactly what my students expect and what methods to use to achieve their goals. My patience, understanding and receptivity have always been appreciated by my students.
