Private English lessons with a qualified and experienced teacher

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Hello,

I am a passionate teacher with a solid academic background and extensive experience in language teaching. With a Bachelor's degree in Portuguese-English Literature, specializing in teaching, as well as a Master's degree in Foreign and Second Language Teaching, I specialized in FLE (French as a Foreign Language) and ESL (English Second Language). My background allows me to combine theory and practice to provide quality education, adapting to the specific challenges of each learner.

I have taught English and Portuguese to professionals in large companies in Rio de Janeiro and, since 2018, I have been offering private lessons in FLE, English and Portuguese in Paris, adapted to all levels (A1 to C2) and all ages. I design personalized educational programs and pay particular attention to pronunciation, a key element for a complete mastery of the language. My teaching approach is focused on the progression of each learner, ensuring that learning is both effective and enjoyable.

I am available to answer any questions you may have.

Thank you and see you soon !

Highlighting the nuances between languages is a challenge I love to take on every day, turning each lesson into a moment that is both instructive and enjoyable.

private discovery or support lessons in English
Mastering different languages is a major asset, especially in a Europe that wants to be open to the world. After a master 2 (English MEEF) I chose to teach part-time in English to be able to work in parallel as a ULIS coordinator with young people with autism spectrum disorders as well as learning disabilities. At the same time, I validated a Master 2 (MEEF educational framework - inclusive education). I am committed to offering a pedagogy adapted to each student in order to help him progress from an academic point of view, but also and above all with a view to helping them discover the pleasure of expressing themselves in another language and being able to communicate with many more people. After an interview with the student, we choose together how to work, a school approach based on learning by heart and practice through exercises, or a more playful approach. Whichever approach is chosen, I rely on the six skills and the CEFR's competency scale to create my course and evaluate progress.

Benel
Support for Mathematics (Primary) or English (Primary / College)
Your child has problems with math or English? Primary school is important because it provides the foundation that will serve throughout his schooling, hence the importance of acting now. I suggest a homework help or a deepening, fun, which will allow your child to love these subjects that often depend on the character of teachers.

Margot

Emma
Discover, learn or deepen the English language
I am a student in law at Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne. Having studied in London for more than 2 years, I am fluent in the language and am able to teach it. I have previously taught English in London and Paris and therefore has the experience in the field. I propose to offer English classes to anyone interested (children - primary, middle school, high school or adult). The course is flexible depending on the student - I try to always adapt to everyone according to their preferences and maintain an environment that is both studious and relaxed. The price for an hour of classes may vary depending on the student's home location and level.

Pietro
Tuition middle / high school, guidance counseling, per student at HEC
As a student at HEC Paris at the end of my studies, I propose to accompany students from high school to high school, in the following subjects: -French (written-oral): I have already successfully prepared students for the bac exams. -English -Spanish -Economy and Social Sciences (ES stream) -History and Geography For each subject concerned, the priority will be to obtain concrete and visible results, ie better grades. That is why I systematically propose a methodology of work, specific to the subject, in order to obtain a maximum of results with a minimum of efforts. Moreover, to the extent that I am very familiar with the higher education system, I can provide guidance counseling, as post-bac choices are often anxiety-provoking for both high school students and their parents.

Charlotte
English
Certified CELTA (Cambridge) I teach English to adults, at any level since 1998. I am skilled at targeting priority points to work although the student is also asked to specify the priority points to work if desired. Objectives and priorities are established during the first course. Some of the work can be done autonomously then discussion and correction in progress is possible. Face to face in person in Paris or via Skype or Gmail chat.

Sarah
English lesson
I propose structured English courses adapted to everyone's needs. I lived in South Africa for several years ten years ago, then I came to continue my studies in France. I am currently in Master 1 at the SKEMA business school. My Master's course is entirely in English. I try to meet people who want to take classes with me for an hour before deciding whether or not I can help them. Indeed, it is not easy to force someone to learn a new language, that's why I need a first contact (not invoiced), to evaluate the level, the expectations and the motivation of the 'student.
