About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
In a studious atmosphere, my lessons are adapted to the personality and educational characteristics of each learner. The material is structured written and oral production, phonetics, specialty French, FOU, grammar, syntax, vocabulary, literature, history, originality and any learning project. My several years of experience give me the opportunity to offer my electronic-audiovisual material to all my students as well as current press documents. Screen sharing is the most useful tool, as I write the entire lesson during the session. At the end of the course I send the word pages to the student's email. The pupil could print or not, it is up to him alone to see that. The course begins with a small examination-revision of the last lesson. Homework should be prepared and I correct either on photo or orally, highlighting the learner's difficulties. At the end of the month there is the month check to consolidate what we have already learned. These are methods from large publishing houses such as Hachette, Clé, Nathan, Didier, Trait d'Union, Sorbonne University, Aristote University, Kapodistrian University, Ciep, which are offered in PDF as well as their audios. Many times there are press articles or videos on the news which can trigger very interesting discussions and comments. Often there are discussions on TV, movies, series or TV news in Greek or French.

My name is Marie and I am a private teacher of French and modern Greek. I have been teaching French for 30 years as well as modern Greek which is my mother tongue. Passionate about literature, history, pedagogy and method, I continued to study French literature at the University of the Sorbonne Paris IV. I worked at French schools in Greece and at the French institutes of Athens and Thessaloniki. I am very experienced in the preparation of FLE diplomas as well as Greek education diplomas. I prepare tailor-made courses according to the particular needs of each learner while respecting the structure of DELF, DALF, SORBONNE all levels, CCIP all options, CNED, FLS, TEF, TCF. My several stays in France as well as my work at the Acropolis Museum in Athens gave me the pleasure of teaching on webcam and in person using my own educational methods: I teach my personal method of Greek adapted for French speakers . Regarding French as a foreign language, I offer the material in PDF and audio documents for free.
A graduate of the Sorbonne Paris IV and experienced for 25 years, I offer courses at all levels online. My program also consists of preparing for the exams of the French IB program.

I have the chance to work on what I like the most in life and I am very happy to share my experience with you. I am ready to help you speak and express yourself in both French and Greek.

On webcam in a studious atmosphere, I offer all electronic material free of charge on word and PDF pages. Specializing in both literary and economic texts, I take care of beginners as well as advanced people who want to progress in French. It is the same for all levels in Greek. Graduated from the University of Sorbonne IV Paris, I also work on corrections of memoirs, comments and translations. All the material for the French literary baccalaureate and for the French literature of the Aristotle Universities of Thessaloniki and Kapodistrian of Athens are provided free of charge. MY METHODOLOGY Expert for beginners, since I have worked a lot on my "beginners" method which is based on my own experience in collaboration with specialist writers from CLE international and so we proceed in stages. My methodology for other levels includes a variety of documents + books from major publishing houses, authentic sound documents, grammar exercises, animated dialogues, role plays with the learner, phonetics exercises, morphosyntax, analyzes of press articles or magazines from the same day of the real news and thus develop the side of French civilization and culture too much demanded for the DELF, DALF, SORBONNE exams. On webcam I share my screen, I write most of the terms and I send them after the lesson in pdf on the email of the student. The student will be able to print my notes. I also use specialized methods for English speakers. My lesson is not limited to an hour of 60 minutes because I send you throughout the week videos, magazines of your interest: arts, fashion, politics, history, health etc.

Giorgia
Italian language lessons from a native speaker - any level
Hello everyone! I'm Giorgia and I come from Torino, Italy. I offer my native knowledge of Italian to any of you, who wants to discover this beautiful language. I teach for all levels, from very beginners to advanced speakers, passing through amateurs or simply curious of any age. I can also help with university exams and school works/assignments. Being a pianist and a piano teacher, I already have lots of experience with teaching and pedagogical approach with the whole range of ages. The lesson is intended to meet the student needs: the focus can be on the grammar, conversation or literature. In case of a middle-level speaker, the lesson will cover all four language's abilities: listening, speaking, writing and reading. My suggestion of a well planned lesson is, for any level, to divide it into two parts: grammar first and then conversation (covering all the abilities mentioned above). Thank you for your attention and looking forward to meeting you !!

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.

Albanian/"Shqip"(Improve Academic/Language skills, Proofreading): Beginner/Intermediate/Advanced
Albanian as a language is very distinguishable as it has its own branch in the Indo-Europian language tree. It is an ancient language transferred from the Illyrians who lived in the Balkan peninsula. As it is my native language, I have always helped and tutored people who are ethnically Albanian but have been raised outside of Kosovo or Albania and do not have a complete understanding of their mother tongue. Together, we will focus on all fundamentals, including the core bases of Reading, Listening, Writing, and Speaking. Throughout lessons, we will practice together with additional homework. I am looking forward to meeting you soon. "Jeni të mirëseardhur!".

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.

I now study History and Politics at the University of Edinburgh.
