    English Lessons For Any Age: Reading, Writing, Conversation, and More!

    Hello! I am a native English speaker and a current doctoral candidate (and MA graduate) at KU Leuven in Belgium, with a BA in English Literature and writing. I have extensive tutoring experience and will be happy to help you meet your English-competency goals.

    In 2019 I worked as an applied languages teacher at the Université de Haute Alsace in the Faculty of Arts where I taught business English and negotiations, English Foundations, and Business Interpretations (English-French).

    I have experience tutoring professionals working in EU institutions, graduate and post-graduate students, and children. I work with composition, oral expression, and editing and I have helped many students improve both their confidence and their scores on tests and papers. I have previously provided individual English lessons suited to the needs of various adult and elementary-ages students of diverse international backgrounds and in 2016 I directed a literacy center for primary school children, helping them learn to read, write, and think critically.

    • Proofreading
    • Pronunciation/diction
    • Editing
    • Grammar Coaching
    • Academic Writing
    • Conversational English
    • Study Skills and Exam Prep

    If you, your child, or someone you know may benefit from my services, please do not hesitate to contact me! I also speak French if that is helpful for lesson comfortability or translation.

    Extra information

    Most meetings will take place in a public space such as a cafe or bookstore, although I am willing to travel to private homes for some lessons. I will create the lessons to suit your individual needs and collaborate with you to find a lesson style that suits you best.

    Amandine
    Professor and former English student in Lyon 3 is looking for motivated learner! - Online courses or in Lyon
    Hello there! My name is Amandine and I am an English tutor in a video game school, with a solid background in English at the University of Lyon 3 (LLCER Bachelor's and Master's degree, Agrégation prep). My courses are aimed at all levels, whether you are a middle school, high school, university student, or an adult wishing to improve your English, whether for academic, professional or personal reasons. I adapt to each profile: academic support, strengthening skills for an exam (such as the Bac, TOEIC, TOEFL), or simply to develop your communication skills in English. How is a course going? In general, my classes begin with a discussion to assess your expectations and objectives. Then, I offer a session structured around grammar, vocabulary, and oral practice, with varied activities (role plays, scenarios, listening exercises, etc.). The sessions are intended to be interactive and dynamic, while remaining adapted to your level and your specific needs. Teaching methods My method is flexible and based on interactive learning. I combine classic techniques (such as grammar exercises and reading comprehension) with more playful approaches, such as discussions on current topics or analyses of cultural content (series, films, English-speaking music). Cultural openness is essential for me in learning a language. The goal is to make English lively and accessible, while cultivating your curiosity for English-speaking culture. My specificities as a teacher What sets me apart is my relaxed yet structured approach. I like to create a learning environment where you feel comfortable experimenting and learning, without fear of making mistakes. Furthermore, having experienced challenges like dyslexia myself, I understand the difficulties some people may have with learning a language, and I tailor my classes to be inclusive and accessible to all.

    Elena Texeira
    cours particuliers d'espagnol or english with a native teacher
    Hi there! I am a 5th year student studying at Science Po Lyon in the ERASMUS program. Originally, I am from Madrid, Spain, so I am a native speaker of the language. I am also half American, so I am also bilingual in English, and I am currently studying French and have a basic level. I am currently 22 years old and have been teaching English to young children since I was 16, so I have a lot of experience as a teacher and many parents are happy with the results. Due to my age, it is very easy for me to connect with young children and adolescents who are not so far from my birthday. My class style varies depending on what each student is looking for; I teach children between the ages of 3 and 18 in preparation for language exams such as the TOEFL or Proficiency, support classes for those who taught subjects in English at school, and I also give personalized classes to improve the language, either through games or exercises, depending on the level of each one. However, I have no age limit for my students, I can also work with adults. I consider myself a patient, sociable and creative person, so I will not disappoint as a teacher. All the best!
