English and Japanese lesson, Support for English homework

I specialise in tutoring language classes. I have a Master's Degree in Teaching of English as a Second Language and currently pursuing my PhD in Science of Education.
I have also lived in Japan for 6 years and I have learned Japanese for two years in the university. Therefore I can teach Japanese for daily conversations.
Owing to the fact that I speak 7 languages, I believe I understand the joy and struggle of language learning, which makes a good partner to learn a new language.

English / French lessons while having fun - Beginner / Reinforcement
Difficulties in English or French? Learning a new language is not easy, nor is discovering a new culture. Learning is much easier when you have fun, and when the lesson is based on the child's interests. Scientific research increasingly shows that we learn better while having fun, by adapting the teaching to our tastes. For English it's the same ... if your child is a fan of Minecraft or Pokemon, manga or drawing, we will approach the subject while reviewing the notions of English acquired or in the process of being acquired.

Julie
Private lessons: sciences - french - english

I remain very attentive to my students by trying to give them all my help so that they can progress while keeping a good pace of work.

Cléa
Language courses
I am a 25-year-old young woman, finishing school in 2018 and wish to teach languages (English, Italian, Spanish) which are languages that I have mastered since I was little.

Lyria
TEACHER with a Bachelor’s degree in Primary Education from HEP Vaud
My courses are designed based on student difficulties and/or training objectives. It is possible to schedule several courses for a specific exam or to organize an academic support program throughout the year. My lessons adapt to the disciplinary area, the level of the student but also their personality. I teach in an active and dynamic way to interest and motivate my students.

Louise
Private lessons in maths; physics-chemistry; English and French.
I offer private lessons at home or online for various subjects. My French lessons are intended for both beginners and intermediates in the language as well as middle and high school students for support in grammar and literature. French being my mother tongue and having studied in the French system, I am comfortable in several areas and therefore offer quality support. My English classes are intended for both beginners and intermediates in the language (adults or students). I learned English as a second language and therefore I know several tips for approaching learning whether from an academic or conversational point of view. My mathematics and physics-chemistry courses are intended for students in 13th (Second) or below. I am in the first year of physics at EPFL and therefore have a solid foundation to help my students progress in science. In addition, I have experience in tutoring young students and I am ready to adapt to the needs to develop a taste for and understanding of concepts. (Available in French and English)

Luna
Student at the gymnasium who offers your child help with homework, learning to work and getting organized.
After having myself finished compulsory school in Vaud in the pre-gymnasium course with very good exam results, I offer your child different working methods in order to find the one that will be the right one for her or for him. It is not always easy to learn to memorize German vocabulary, to organize oneself, to express oneself in writing or even to not lose one's means in the middle of the test, which is why I will do my best to communicate, discuss, share the different techniques that have been beneficial to me during my schooling. The idea is to bring my help to your child but above all to give him the means to succeed by himself or by herself. Talk about how to find motivation, stress management and of course organization in general. As for my background, I took the Italian option for three years in secondary I, a language that I already spoke a little in my family. I am someone who appreciates literature and expression in the three languages that I master the most, that is to say; Italian, English and French of course. I offer lessons of one to two hours depending on your child's needs, at your home (in Lausanne) or at the library of La Sallaz as well as that of La Riponne.

Expert preparing First Certificate My students pass! Also beginners to upper intermediate
Preparing a Cambridge Exam ( PET, First or CAE) is an investment in time and money. My success in teaching for these exams relies on: -Quickly seeing the students strong and weak points to build confidence -Maximize their time by drilling the new information and from the beginning giving them priority to speaking -I never hesitate to correct their pronunciation and grammar mistakes in a positive way -The student soon feels they are improving -We both enjoy the lesson and know that it hasn't been a waste of time I have +10 year experience. Worked at the Université Populaire de Lausanne, Centre de Langues at EPFL, Gymnase de la Cité (Lausanne), Institut de Rosey (Rolle) and several private companies and banks in Lausanne. References upon request. I love my job and the students feel it.
