Conversational English and English Language Communication

From 16.42 Fr /h

This English language course, is mainly targeting those who would like to learn how to communicate in English, and engage in conversations smoothly. The purpose of learning any language is to eventually speak with it fluently and confidently. English language is more than that! Because it is the most spoken language in the world and it opens a huge door to get to know people from all cultures, traditions, backgrounds, beliefs, etc. Without forgetting, the high chances in finding a job when someone knows English language. Therefore, I am willing to teach you how to communicate in this language easily by emphasizing on the right articulation and pronunciation if needed.

About Me

Learning every language requires a smooth way of apprehension. Through listening and speaking it would be impossible to not end up with a good level of communication. Personally, I have learned English language fluently by listening and speaking as much as possible. This way the language inhabits the mind efficiently and effectively.

My methods of teaching are mainly through conversations and communication. And, I tend to build my courses to target every level, from basic to advanced. I try to understand my students on a personal and professional level to know how to approach their level of English language.

Learning English language will open a door of getting to know people from all over the world, careers, and self-confidence. That is why I highly recommend this path and it would be a pleasure for me to be your guide!

Sending you all love and light!

I am a French teacher. I have been teaching French, language, and communication since 2012. I speak Arabic, French, Spanish, a little English, and a little Turkish.
I explain my lessons in French, Arabic, or Spanish, depending on your choice.
During the sessions, I explain the course that suits your needs. There is also the option to create an open discussion so that you can speak fluently over time and avoid grammatical gaps.
And at the end of each session, I give "lessons" with "exercises" to do as homework to continue our support and increase your level.

Bring a notebook for this training (or any suitable means) to take notes and keep them.

3. Acquire the techniques of self-defense and mastery without hurting and being injured
4. Face and then defuse difficult behaviors (blackmail attempts, threats, destabilization) or even dangerous with a mediation strategy
5. Develop conflict management and negotiation skills, alternating attentive listening, active speaking and rationality in the face of the limited rationality of the angry individual.

➤ Whether your objective is personal or professional, defusing conflicts, negotiating and speaking relevant and successful must always be effective and efficient, with clear, simple and powerful messages, creating an adequacy between the message received and the message sent. Consistency between form and substance.

➤ So, how to listen and be listened to, convince and be impactful, challenge and mark the spirits, enhance its content, address its audience effectively and optimize the quality & clarity of the exchange / message?

✓Develop not necessarily self-confidence, but the 'appearance' of self-confidence, refine one's listening to respond adequately, open up to the resources of the imagination, free oneself from the rational to then structure one's speech.
✓Relate their communication objectives (project, institution, values, ideas, demands, etc.) to the form of their expression.
✓Learn and put into practice persuasive communication techniques and better understand the perception that others have of oneself. In order to improve his skills of 'self-presentation' and conveyed image.

Whether you want to learn, improve or deepen your knowledge of a language, you're in the right place!

Holding two master's degrees in Romance and Germanic languages and literatures, I have over 18 years of experience in teaching languages at primary, secondary and university levels.
Specializing in culturally diverse educational contexts, I have lived and taught in Latin America (Ecuador and Brazil), the United States, Spain, and Dutch-speaking Belgium. These experiences have allowed me to reach a near-native level in Portuguese, Spanish, English, and Dutch.

My goal is first and foremost to develop your understanding of the language, so that oral expression can develop gradually and with confidence.
How ?
Through dynamic and contextualized teaching methods: concrete activities, role-playing and interactive exercises.
I combine a strong linguistic knowledge with modern and innovative teaching methods, based on immersion, contextual learning, and everyday life situations. I place particular importance on the active participation of learners, both orally and in writing.
I primarily use the immersion method: lessons are conducted in the target language, allowing for natural and effective progress. Of course, you can use your native language to ask questions if needed.
These scientifically recognized approaches promote both rapid and lasting learning. My courses are structured, interactive, and fully tailored to the specific needs of each learner, guaranteeing concrete results.

Each course is custom-designed to meet your specific needs and goals. My sessions are dynamic, structured, and engaging, guaranteeing rapid and significant progress.
With a great capacity for adaptation, I establish a relationship of trust with my learners.
My patience, empathy, and professionalism will encourage you to surpass yourself.
