French language AND culture with a reporter/radio DJ

French is a very hard language to master, and Frenchies have the bad (but deserved) reputation of being extremely judgemental whenever foreigners try to speak their language. I am here to guide you through the learning process so you know not only the language but all the subtle details that will make you speak like a real pro whatever the circumstances are! Pronunciation, vocabulary (casual or formal), grammar... And the material I use includes music lyrics, movies, pop culture, podcasts, press articles, anything you can be interested in to make the class more fun for you!

About Me

I recently relocated to France after living many years in Quito, Ecuador, as a reporter and then Los Angeles, USA as a radio DJ.
I am now back to my first passion (and college degree) - languages! They are fascinating because they reflect so much of a culture, and I am here to teach you both - the tedious stuff (grammar/pronunciation/vocab) - via fun content such as music, pop culture, podcasts, politics - whatever interests you the most!
I enjoy teaching even more now since we are all under lockdown at home and restricted in our social lives.

Education

Degree in Classical Humanities at Prep Classes for Normal School (hypokhâgne/khâgne/khûbe) Major: French Literature, Latin & Ancient Greek, Minors: Philosophy, History, Geography, English Literature
Master's Degree in French Literature at Paris-Sorbonne IV
Master's Degree in Political Sciences at King's College London

Experience / Qualifications

TOEFL in English
I used to tutor many students when I was a senior student myself. And more recently I have been tutoring for about one year.

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.
