Spanish and French tutor for any age gap, from beginners to avanced levels.Languages are the key to success. Being fluent in Spanish, French, and English has opened me so many doors. I would deliver classes in French and Spanish to any age gap and at any level. From beginners to advanced levels.

Charlotte
French Grammar, Speech and Vocabulary Tutoring with a Native French SpeakerLearning French on your own is quite a tedious task ! Whether you are a beginner, or need to prepare for an exam, this course is available for students of all levels to take on French in the most lighthearted way possible. For all my students, I believe proper french grammar and vocabulary are key tenets when learning French.
Most importantly, being able to practice speaking french with a tutor is what I find to be most efficient as it develops a student's sense of confidence in the language and it's capacity to maintain a conversation !

French class for all levels (A-levels, GCSE, beginners, university, ...)Student at the University of Edinburgh, I teach French to all levels in person and online. I can help with A-levels, University students, the DELF, and beginners. I have taught French to more than 10+ students from total beginners to university students doing a French degree. I can provide lessons for A-levels and IB. My methodology is personalised depending on the needs and levels of my students.
Born in Paris, France, I attended an international school for 10 years, receiving a bilingual education. In that way, I was nurtured in a world where linguistics is essential. I speak Spanish, French, and English, and I have notions in Chinese. I now study History and Politics at the University of Edinburgh.

Private (online) french lessons with an experienced native teacher in Shanghai.Hi everyone,

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.

Learn French with a French-speaking teacher, 7 days a weekHello to all of you!
I welcome you to my profile.
You would like to learn French and I would also like to teach you French.
Fortunately, French is my native language. I live in Brussels where I have taught many French courses to French speakers and also to non-French speakers in the framework of FLE (French as a Foreign Language), mostly face-to-face and also some distance learning. I want to expand the use of distance learning.
Hence my presence on this site.
My greatest wish is to help you make as much progress as possible in French.
To this end, I use a judicious combination of oral and written exchanges.
I use these conversations to introduce grammatical concepts and expand your vocabulary. All this in a fun and friendly atmosphere!
You will have to express yourself a lot in French, because my level of Dutch is average. In fact, I speak it at a "normal" pace, but with a more limited vocabulary and expressions than yours.
This may seem a little frustrating at first, but it is a real benefit to you as it forces you to express yourself in French as much as possible!
It's all in your favor!
Please contact me as soon as possible so that we can start a fruitful cooperation.
Nesrine
