Learn French with Maksens !

Everyone has a reason to learn French :
whether you are passionate about French cuisine or literature, about our marvelous landscapes and historical patrimony in Paris and outside, or for any other reason,
whether you are studying French at high school or you have previously studied it and forgot it all,
whether you are 15 or 51,
you are right to (re)start/continue learning French, and you are welcome to my classes. As a French enthusiastic about my culture and language, I would love to share my passion while making you improve your understanding and expression in French. My classes are progressive and based on your needs and requests, and they mix language and civilisation. My aim is to help you interact with people in various situations, such as in a bar with French friends, in a professional email or even to write in French for any purpose.

About Me

Teaching and languages are my passions.
Ever since I was little, I knew my calling was in teaching. I love sharing knowledge and methods on many subjects as it enables people to develop their own ideas and grow confident in themselves and critical. What I particularly like in teaching is that I even, as a tutor or a professor, learn from my students, develop new pedagogical tools thanks to them: therefore classes are really a place of shared knowledge.
As for learning new languages, I believe it helps us connect to native people in a way which wouldn't be possible otherwise. I particularly noticed that in France, the country in which I grew up. Today, I can speak French, English, Italian and I began learning Japanese.

Education

I currently study in the General Course in London School of Economics.
At the end of the year, I will graduate at Sciences Po Paris where I followed a Bachelor in Economics and Societies.

Experience / Qualifications

My experience in teaching has been large, from private philosophy classes on zoom during lockdown to lessons in French and History/Geography for Year 10 French students in order to prepare them for their "Brevet" (French GSCE), from tutoring students in microeconomics at Sciences Po to holding debate and public speaking workshops in high school. This has helped me develop an individualized approach to offer the best classes as possible to students.

Improve your FRENCH! Améliorer votre Français: prononciation, diction, construction de phrases (FLE)
If you've just moved to France and want to improve your French I'm here to help! Or you might as well have been living here for quite some time and have always wanted to study french: Now is the time! Trained actor at Cours Florent in Acting in English, I moved to London and Toronto to improve my English. I am now back in Paris, bilingual and eager to help new foreigners to improve their French! You'll see that there are more connexions between French and English than you'd think! Don't hesitate to get in touch with me to see what we can do together!

French communication skills and/or literature analysis
For people wanting to use french in everyday situations, I propose the communicative approach, focus on communication rather than grammar structures. This approach takes the focus off the language by stressing the content. The idea is to communicate fluently. (If you were to learn how to repair a bicycle, for example, you would learn bike vocab then would then be able to communicate in French by using the relevant vocabulary and conveying their feelings, ideas and thoughts.) For students wanting to learn French in a more literate approach, I propose analytic lectures of French classics, or any desired text. This can help for more elaborate grammatical structures and thorough vocabulary. In addition to strengthening a more distinctive way of expression, you'll enhance your French culture

Mathematics Physics Chemistry Latin Portuguese Spanish French Italian Dutch English German
I have been tutoring mathematics, physics, chemistry, Latin and language courses in Latin languages, Portuguese, Spanish, French and Italian for more than 15 years, from basic or beginner level to grammar school level. For primary school students, also arithmetic with fractions and percents and all other modules. Also Dutch grammar and spelling.

Kevin
Non-academic Latin lessons. Multilingual teacher with 9 years of experience. Pronunciation, historical linguistics, conceptual semantics.
Contrary to popular belief, learning Latin is not like learning the phone book by heart. I offer you Latin lessons that are unlike any other. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches: If you take the train back and forth every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options: 1) Learn the schedules by heart. 2) Note that the train arrives every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m. In school pedagogy, in study notebooks and in ordinary courses, it is the first approach which is adopted - in the courses that I offer you, it is the second because it is more economical and faster. My offer is aimed at both students and adults who want to learn the Latin language or deepen their knowledge without time-consuming detours through the insanities of school methods which do not produce results. Learning is easy but unlearning what has become a bad habit is extremely difficult. All the more important it is to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. With my tailor-made teaching you will accelerate your learning in a positive state of mind. I offer individual or group Latin lessons (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive sciences and in particular historical linguistics. What will not be the subject of the course: learn lists of verbs; learn lists of nouns with their gender; learn words with their translations; memory card game; doing school exercises; follow the program in a notebook; impose French grammar on the Latin language. What matters to me in particular: motivate my student and give him a learning rhythm; encourage creativity; make friends with language; letters and their sounds strengthen your memory by working on the phonological loop; teach construction plans instead of having people learn sentences by heart; explain how the language works to make my student independent as quickly as possible; breaking preconceived ideas such as the gammatical gender would have a link with the biological gender, the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, the verbs would be irregular, the declension would be random and therefore to be learned with each verb... ; place practice at the center and articulate grammar around practice. In the context of a first course, you can get a well-founded idea of my pedagogy. I look forward to meeting you.
