French Conversation: Practise the language, improve your grammar and learn a lot about anything French through a pleasant exchange.

A lively and laid back approach to a foreign language!

Discover French through discussion with a native and specialist of French History and language. There is a lot to learn about everything French and I would happily support your oral practice whilst providing you with a personalised insight of my national culture.

We can chat out of the blue or discuss a piece of French poetry, music, philosophy, art... a political or historical event... anything is possible!

I am extremely keen on history and language (it is my job). But I am also very interested in Politics, Economy, Sociology, Arts...

As a generalist, I can provide my interlocutor with any topic they wish to deepen. My French has been regarded as exquisite by my professors at University and I have no accent (though I can imitate a lot of our regional ones ;) ).

About Me

An easy-going and warm person, I usually get my younger pupils at ease. As far as mature ones are concerned, they can find in me an experienced teacher willing to taylor classes to their very needs. Teaching has always been a pleasure for me and a vocation. It is a feature that pervades through my classes. I am also very keen on interdisciplinarity and showing the link between the subjects I teach and everyday's life in all its aspects.

Education

First year of PhD in Classics (University of Reading, UK)
French PGSE
Master's degree of Classics (French literature, Ancient and Medieval History, Latin, Ancient Greek)
BA of Classics.
French Preparatory school (elitist school open to the 4% best pupils of the country).
French Baccalaureate

Experience / Qualifications

I have been a teacher of French, Latin, Ancient Greek and English in the French Secondary School System for 5 years and a teaching assistant at the University of Reading in Classics for a year. I owe a French PGSE and have a clean French DBS check. I am also a young specialist in medieval manuscripts (palaeography). I have 16 years of experience as a private tutor with ages from 3 to 54. I have also been a private tutor and governess for HNWI in Moscow and Kiev.
Whatever your level might be, from complete beginner to bachelor student in distress, if you thirst for ancient languages, the only key to approach humanities in depth, the best way to understand the History of Western Civilisation, the origin of most Western European languages and the basis of the terminology of no less than Literature, Philosophy, Medecine and Law, this class is for you. Besides, if you were not disturbed by the length of the latter sentence, you might even have predispositions ;) A PhD student, I have been teaching Latin and Greek from middle schools to Bachelor's Degree, both in secondary schools and at University (Reading, UK). I am able to provide my students with traditional language courses, or preparations for national exams, but I can also make the matter more appealing and cultural by linking the subject to nowadays society and show in which measure Latin and Greek are still part of everyday's life.

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.
