I have ten years of teaching experience, including two years as an English teacher at Brest Open Campus, Campus Langues, Heikhal Menahem Sinai High School and Lycée Claude Bernard, and two years as a teacher. English at the French-American Academy in the United States, and two years as a professor of English as a Foreign Language at Berlitz of Orange and Lexicon School of Languages in the United States.

My training as an English teacher continued in the United States where I lived for twenty years, first as a student at the Polytechnic University of California and then as a teacher of English and geography history. In 2012-2013 I had a year internship in continuing education at the University of Versailles, teaching English, M-2.

About Me

My usual lesson begins with ostensive definitions. I may show a student something as obvious as colors. The colored flashcards are accompanied by matching statements, "This is red, blue, green, yellow..." After the student have mastered these, an inversion is introduced: we change the order of words and intonation to make a question, "Is this yellow?" At first all questions are genuine. They perfectly match colors, "Yes, this is yellow." Later, the genuine questions become more rare. I intentionally mismatch the flashcard color and the the color in the question, introducing a longer, negative answer, "No, this is not yellow. This is blue."

Next, I show the student a few simple objects; for example, pens, pencils and markers.The same game of ostensive definitions follows. At this point, I can add the previously acquired vocabulary. Only now, I use colors as adjectives, "This is a yellow pen." I advance to those confusing rhetorical questions, eventually mismatching the colors and objects, "Is this a blue marker?" "No, this is a red pencil." This is an opportunity to add more objects and allow the student to ask questions, s/he hopefully has mastered by now.

Flash cards can also introduce persons, whose names are subsequently mismatched. The same happens to the way the persons relate to each other: there we can have both family and subordinate/superordinate, i.e. work relations: "No, John is not Pam's brother, John is Pam's father, etc." We add friends, co-workers, possessions, etc. (Possessive Case is not explained but extensively practiced.)

The same method is used to show parts of the body, parts of the house, both exterior and interior, objects in the room and prepositions. New adjectives usually accompany new nouns.
Similarly, new verbs are introduced with flash cards showing simple and more complex actions: walking, talking, playing soccer, watching TV, horse-riding, etc. Adverbs follow the verbs.

The same method is useful for teaching more complex grammar, such as Conditional Mood. A dozen of iconic images assembled on a single sheet of paper show different household chores. Negotiation process follows, "Will you do the dishes, if I water the flowers?" The answer is always negative, then a new compromise is suggested, "No, but I will cook dinner, if you change the cat litter." As you can see, using this method, we can easily advance all the way to the 3rd Conditional.

Private online mathematics lessons - Qualified and experienced teacher
I am a qualified and experienced mathematics tutor. Graduated from the Free University of Brussels in 2011, I started my career by teaching remedial courses in different schools in Brussels. I then specialized in individual academic support by following educational training at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. I have been giving private mathematics lessons daily for over ten years. The students who follow my private lessons benefit from personalized support. The first session is devoted to an in-depth assessment of the student's mathematical knowledge. The objective is to detect its weak points and understand their origin in order to adapt my courses to its needs. I develop a tailor-made remediation program for each of my students aimed at filling each of their gaps. Over the course of the sessions, the student builds a solid foundation for learning and regains self-confidence. At the same time, I help him acquire a work methodology that allows him to gradually become autonomous in his studies. I have a perfect knowledge of the mathematics program of the College and the High School (from the Sixth to the Terminale). During my formative years, I studied and developed many techniques that make it easier to learn math. The strength of my pedagogical approach lies in my ability to explain in a simple way everything that the student finds complicated. I am passionate about this job because it gives me the opportunity to guide dropout students on the path to success. It is a real pleasure to see them evolve and come to terms with the fantastic world of mathematics. I provide my private lessons in Limoges (at the student's home) or remotely (online via the internet). My distance learning courses take place on an interactive online whiteboard. This board is specially designed to promote student/teacher interaction on the internet. Thanks to this educational tool, my online courses are as effective as home courses. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to take advantage of it.

Maryam
Private lessons in Arabic and English to build my little champions from the beginning
My name is Mariam from the United Arab Emirates. I specialize in establishing children from 4 years old to third grade in Arabic and English subjects with more than seven years of experience in teaching. I love children and I have patience in understanding the needs of my young students. I establish them and teach them new words. My priorities are to explain in detail and in stages until the child acquires the information. I send the exercises to the guardian before the specified class time to print them for the child. If he has a printer, I contact the guardian at the end of the class to tell him about the level of their child with me. May God bless you, my little heroes 🤍

Claudia Veronica
Conversation in English through Positive Psychology
What are the sessions about? The sessions are to work on conversation in English through topics and content of psychology, well-being and self-help. The presentation is designed so that the person shares their comments on several occasions and elaborates responses using common vocabulary, improving conversation, fluency, vocabulary, and pronunciation. The content is on positive psychology topics, where tools for life are acquired through information and reflection exercises. Breathing techniques, mindfulness, gratitude, habits, resilience, flow state, resistance to change, and more are mentioned and used. Why use positive psychology content? According to several studies, including a study conducted by Cambridge in 2022, the best method to learn a language is through immersion (exposure and engagement). This means that when we learn topics or activities that interest us, the brain activates the prefrontal cortex, the striatum, the limbic system, and the hippocampus, which are the areas of long-term memory, motivation, concentration, reward, and emotional experience. These functions together create greater receptivity to new information. It is about talking about topics that motivate and interest us to enhance learning. They are also life tools that benefit us all. The more a person opens up to talking and reflecting on their personal experiences, whether positive or negative, the more they will be able to handle life's difficulties and improve their well-being. What level should I be at? Once you understand the written and/or spoken language, and can say the basics, we can start working. It doesn't matter if your level is basic, since that's exactly what the sessions are for. When you try to create a statement with interesting content, the areas of the brain that promote learning are activated. Here, through the chat, pronunciation and grammar are corrected, new vocabulary is added, and the correct way to say what is desired is taught. The person is asked to repeat the statement "correctly" and that's how learning takes place. How long will it take to see changes? The time varies for each person, as it depends on their initial level, and if the method is compatible with their way of learning. It is recommended to evaluate if this method is suitable for you, after the first session. However, due to previous experience with people at a basic - intermediate level, changes in fluency are seen from the first two or three sessions. From the first or second session you will notice more comfort when speaking and listening to the language. What mental health benefits can I get from sessions other than language? The sessions are taught by a clinical psychologist trained in positive psychology and other therapy methods. Some of them can be used in the sessions. The topics covered encourage conversations about personal life, and only if it is of interest to the person, can they delve into it and use this space to work on certain topics through psychological guidance. Additionally, information supported by scientific evidence will be provided, on tools for greater emotional well-being based on positive psychology, and reflection on mental and personal habits will be encouraged. Important: This is NOT, nor does it seek to replace, psychological therapy. Issues that require further exploration and/or external help will be referred to a therapy or a professional as appropriate. By what means can I take the session and how many frequencies do I need? Most sessions are via Zoom. The teacher will send you the link via WhatsApp or email and at the time of your session you can access it via a device. It is recommended once a week if the session is individual. You will notice that they are very complete and you may be a little tired after the session, if you are not very familiar with the language. If the session is in a group of two or more people, it can be once or twice a week. We will talk about many interpersonal topics in the session and we may follow up during the week by sharing relevant content via WhatsApp and voice notes, also in English for both parties to continue practicing fluency and vocabulary. It can be in person in Monterrey, Nuevo León in groups of 3 or more, or within the Republic for workshops.
