French Tutoring with Languages Graduate, Beginner and Intermediate Level

Von 30.84 € /Std

Hello!

My name is Matthew and I'm a recent UCL graduate; I was awarded first-class honours in Dutch and French.

Do you have exams coming up? We can work closely to a syllabus so you pass with flying colours. Perhaps you're planning to visit a French-speaking nation or otherwise interact with French speakers, in which case we can work through a whole range of practical scenarios you're likely to encounter so you always leave a great impression.

Our classes can have as much or as little structure as you like; it's entirely up to you. I'll be keen to hear what your objectives and expectations are, and from there we can work out a plan of action.

I look forward to meeting you.

Matthew.

Über mich

I graduated from UCL in 2023 in Dutch and French.

I'm applying for graduate schemes in industries such as banking, and what better to do in the meantime than make use of my language skills to help others.

My intuitive and favoured approach is to get to know the student, and make plans according to what is most productive for them. I'm certainly not one to prescribe the same methods or schedule regardless of context.

I like other languages too, although I'm not comfortable teaching them for now! Besides Dutch, I studied Mandarin at school and am now hoping to get my Slovak up to a workable level -- little but often.

Questions? Go ahead and reach out.

Bildung

I grew up and went to school locally. I started at university in another field but then switched to languages. This included some time studying in the Netherlands, besides France.

Erfahrung / Qualifikationen

I previously tutored French in 1-to-1 setting, informally, in my local area.
During my year abroad I worked at a French business school.

How will a native speaker understand the struggles of learning their own native language? How will they know what's the most difficult thing about their mother tongue?

Stop signing up with native French speakers and learn from a person who speaks French fluently after having studied it from primary school all the way through to my professional career and speaks it on the daily with a French partner and his family and friends.

Teacher graduate of the Haute École Pédagogique in Switzerland, I offer a personalized support course in French, but also help with exam preparation.

I teach both beginners and advanced students. Through my courses, you will learn specific vocabulary to mobilize in various situations of daily life, learning strategies and of course, theoretical contributions in terms of language structure such as spelling, grammar or even conjugation.

Experienced tutor with outstanding language level, very rich vocabulary, deep grammar knowledge, excellent pronunciation and deep understanding about the relevant culture.
Certificates: Spanisch (Cervantes C1, OLS C2), English (Ielts C1, OLS C2), German (native language: C2), French (Bachelor's conducted at Université de Lorraine: C2)

I have been teaching French (A1-C1), Spanish (A1-C1) German (A1-C1), English (A1-C1) and Italian (A1-A2) for GCSE level and beyond to people from different countries for several years during my studies.

Depending on your level, I provide personalised lessons that suit your grammar knowledge and extent to which you can express yourself. Concersation is key for me when learning a language and instead of purely focussing on grammar, I incorporate aquired words or gramatical phrases in a conversation with the student.

Can learning English be fun, insightful, productive and effective at the same time? I believe so!

Whatever your background or profession, deciding to learn a foreign language is a great way to add another dimension to your life and make your mind work in a new way. You become a (slightly) different person, since along with a new language, one learns to look at the world in a slightly different way. This is why my approach to teaching English is not only aimed at laying or strengthening the foundational knowledge - grammar, speaking, writing and listening skills, but also at introducing students to the culture of the English-speaking population. We will find out what English speakers find funny, what drives them to tears, what makes them feel proud and what they get embarrassed about.

Open to students of all levels, my course usually is taught online, using a variety of visual aids and a wide range of material, from textbooks to YouTube videos. In teaching advanced learners, I often refer to pieces of literature such as novels and poems, since they easily spark discussions, which in turn improves the students' grasp and feel of the language. In doing so, I take students beyond ordinary textbooks and grammar books, since they are no more than guides to learning, not absolute authorities, and because to me language is a living, constantly evolving matter, which you must submerge yourself into in order to understand.

In addition to my unorthodox approach, what sets me apart is a collection of unique, language-related experiences, which translate into a good ability to understand nuances of the English language. A native Russian speaker, I have lived in the UK for over 5 years, went to a Scottish boarding school and have even completed a university degree in English. Thanks to my linguistic and cultural competency, I will make sure that you are never lost in translation! Are you interested? Then contact me today!

I have gotten A*s in French, German and Maths A Level and am going to study Modern and Medieval Languages (German and ab initio Russian) at the University of Cambridge. I have done some maths tutoring in the past for a Year 4/5 student and a Year 7/8 student. I am enthusiastic about languages and maths and would love to help anyone up to GCSE level who needs some extra support in these subjects.

This class will build your basis and the focus will be on grammar and vocabulary.

This way you will not only expand your vocabulary and grammar knowledge but also get to know German culture better. We will also do speaking and practice pronunciation. The difficulty of the class will depend on your level. Depending on your interest we will focus on the aspect(s) you want to develop and practice more.

German is a complex language with difficult grammar and pronunciation. Because it’s my first language, I am confident that I can help the students to improve their grades as best as possible. I test vocabularies regularly and try to make the grammar understandable on the basis of exercises.

Social studies as well as science of education persist both of many theories and philosophy. Sometimes it is hard to understand these theories or to memorise them for an upcoming test. I want to make the theories more practical to the student by using examples to explain them. I’d test them regularly by asking for the most relevant facts.

Moreover math is also quite difficult for some students to understand. I already gave math tutor classes for students and it’s very helpful to just make as many exercises and examples as possible and in doing so explaining problems and raising questions.

Test preparation is a special field of education which isn’t really taught in school, although it’s very important for the students to know. It is all about motivation and finding the best method how to learn. Besides, time management and organisation as well as still having time for leisure activities is crucial. I figure this out together with the students preferences and personalities to get the most out of the test prep time.

I am a native Italian speaker and have more than two years of experience teaching Italian as a foreign language to English-speaking students. My path to becoming an Italian teacher began with a Bachelor's degree in Translation Studies for the German and English languages. I then completed a Master's degree in Teaching Italian as a Foreign Language at University of Bologna. Moreover, my passion for teaching the language and culture of my country led me to a second Master's degree in e-learning for teaching Italian to foreigners at University for Foreigners in Siena.

My teaching method is entirely based on the needs of the student. For those who mainly want to improve their oral expression skills, the lesson focuses a lot on conversation. In this way, grammar does not remain dry theory, but is applied again and again as you speak. Vocabulary will also come to you more quickly with practice. According to new didactic research, effective learning is closely linked to the experience of fun and ease and the lessons are designed accordingly.

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.
