English Lessons for students/adults with an Experienced Native Speaker

Àpd 32.11 $ /h

Summary: I am a native English speaker with ten years' of tutoring experience. I specialise in English Language learning for non-native speakers and teaching students with special educational needs, particularly dyslexia and dyspraxia. However, I have taught every subject at some point!

Qualifications: I am TEFL certified, with a cum laude (distinction) Master's in International Relations, a published author and ghost writer of two books. Professionally I have a background in public affairs and corporate communications - but my lessons are definitely not corporate or tedious!

My students: I tend to focus on student/business learners. However, I am willing to take on younger students after discussion with the parents although it is more difficult in an online environment! If you are looking for some extra help with your English, want to learn for the enjoyment, you're a student looking to improve their writing skills for their upcoming exams, or a non-native speaker working in an international environment where English is required, then I can help you.

My style: My lessons focus on my student’s needs and goals, so that the materials are engaging and relevant to them. My style is fun, practical and usually informal. The trick for me is to make the lessons fun, so that students look forward to them, and implement a clear system to display progress along the way.

My hourly rate reflects my professional skill set, formal credentials, extensive experience, and my status as a qualified educator, as well as the cost of living in Switzerland. That said, what matters most to me is ensuring that each student receives the support they need. I am open to discussing and adjusting my rates based on fair reasoning to make this possible.

- - -

I have been a dedicated IB English Language & Literature educator since 2014, and my expertise extends to serving as an IB External Examiner for IB English A Literature since July 2016. As of May 2023, I have advanced to the role of Team Leader, or Senior Examiner, overseeing the external assessment of Language and Literature components and guiding a team of ten junior examiners.

My passion for Education and Literature has been the cornerstone of my career for nearly a decade. My professional journey spans a diverse range of educational settings, including public and international private schools, as well as independent language institutions.

In addition to my extensive teaching experience, I hold an IB Diploma, a BA in English and Education, an MA in Education, and a Swiss-verified teaching certificate. These credentials underscore my commitment to excellence in education and my deep engagement with the field of literature.

Whether your goal is personal or professional, speaking is a predominantly physical activity, relying on a body, a voice, a breath, a rhythm (diction) and an emotion (the imagination and the sensations, reflecting the involvement of the speaker in his speech.

How to send a clear message? How to make the difference, to make an impression? How to regain self-confidence and control the management of his emotions?

Knowing how to speak in public is now a necessity for the company and in the company. From a personal point of view, this is a vector for better relationships and optimal messages. On the phone, in a meeting, in front of a client or a banker (...), your public speaking must be effective and efficient with clear, simple and powerful messages, creating a match between the message received and the message sent.

Simple and pragmatic tools will be presented and then put into practice for: generating listening ● making an impression ● fostering trust ● generating need ● motivating teams by explaining a strategy ● getting messages across within groups.

Controlled, the method allows:

• improve self-confidence and stress management with the development of the speaker's fluency (verbal-bodily), his public speaking and his sense of repartee and improvisation

• to work on his ease, leadership, his NLP, his charisma, his creativity and to go towards a certain personal development, through a set of scenarios

* improve the characteristics of the spoken voice (timbre, pitch, intention, flow)

Completed by basic exercises (diction, voice, presence, breathing, presentation, time management ...), role plays, improvisations and simulations will be set up.

With the key words: pronunciation, rhetoric, verbal and non-verbal communication, diction / articulation, the sense of repartee, structured speech (...).

The goal is not only to focus on verbal communication but also on nonverbal communication, so as to make the control of his body, his voice (...), a real and lasting strength.

Depending on the interaction between the trainer - coach and the one who consults, there is no single way to operate: each type of session depends on the needs and difficulties of each.

In all cases, it is very often a question, while adapting to your own needs and after having precisely diagnosed your desired objective and the blockages encountered, to combine the theory (the bases of the studied concept, for example NLP / information asymmetry / the "how to say no" / the tools of non-verbal communication or the application of kinaesthesia) and its application (through exercises and direct applications).

For example, are discussed:

- the fundamentals of public speaking: breathing, gaze and body language

- diction and elocution: rhythm and range of your voice - management of your emotions and your emotional overflow (example: stress) - work on the body, to amplify your charisma and ensure consistency between your message and your body ... with the aim of:

* Enhance your presentation and arouse interest by focusing on your strengths, your qualities ... your personality

* Match the content and form of your message

* Improve your charisma, your self-confidence and the benefits of your emotional intelligence

Postgraduate School Training & Ivy league college in the United States, specialized and worked for over 13 years, in Europe and North America, in the field of communication and public speaking in renowned public and private international institutions, involved in forums and conferences, and focused on two areas: training and coaching, with the key words pedagogy and careful methodology.

PLACES
- Locations: Geneva - Lausanne - Friborg - Neuchâtel - Montreux - Basel - Sion - Sierre - Morges - Bienne. But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of live (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (example: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (example: notes that can be re-read on the chat). In this context, the videoconference sessions for which you asked me to seem to suit everyone perfectly, take place very optimally and generate a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). That is why, at your request, I continue to offer this option. Take good care of yourself and yours!

University English Instructor| Started teaching English 9 years ago| Specializing in Conversational English.

My teaching approach is designed to develop communication skills above all. We watch or read materials, such as videos, articles, stories, poems, caricatures, then discuss them; we act out situations from everyday life; we take positions and practice debates. However, this doesn’t mean that we just practice speaking. I also make sure the learner is not running in circles. I’m here to ensure that they do not keep repeating the same mistakes or keep using the same expressions over and over in conversation.
In order to keep making progress, I take my student on a journey that involves:
• Improving their grammar.
• Fixing their pronunciation.
• Enriching their vocabulary by learning to use new words and common idioms.
By the end of this course, you should be able to speak English fluently and confidently.

PS: Because of my academic specialty, I also help with academic writing and creative writing.

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 :)
