Certified conference interpreter and translator, certified teacher, 3 certificates of excellence in English

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
○ I teach and interpret English full time. It is not a hobby, but rather the professional continuation of my Bachelor and Master degrees ○

✦ Guarantee of success, no student involved has ever failed, I make it a real personal matter ✦

Effective and pragmatic teaching technique

Good news: I believe that studying a language is not limited to long lists of vocabulary. My classes take place in a relaxed and caring atmosphere, I am not in favor of the strict framework of some schools

In class, we combine learning grammar (a crucial and comforting foundation for beginners) with numerous practical exercises and role-playing exercises so that the student can manage on their own in the real world.

Above all, I transform language into a kind of game/code that must be deciphered. It is then enough to "grasp" the logic... It is "enough" of course - but that is my job - I will take care of it!

I have a myriad of paper materials but I prefer PowerPoints and other fun, interactive tools projected on my TV/computer screen when the course is online.

➤ 2 theory syllabuses; 1 exercise syllabus provided free of charge with our courses


✦ We are a team, get involved; write to me outside of class ✦

■ I don't forget the parents (how to manage a student who is failing/having academic difficulties, how to help them in a practical way, reports of our lessons)
■ My courses are tax deductible, I can provide invoices

I like to differentiate myself from those distant teachers who don't make you want to learn.

Maybe our lessons will be the highlight of your day?

Sophie is above all a person who is passionate about the languages she teaches. She offers courses that adapt to your needs and demonstrates a lot of pedagogy in her courses. Furthermore, she is very friendly and puts you at ease straight away, which means you don't feel like you're back at school. I therefore highly recommend to anyone who would like to learn English or Russian to take lessons with Sophie

No, Japanese is not an exotic language or one reserved for manga fans, and impossible to really master... even for French speakers! As proof, here I am after several years of learning, diversifying my language course offering. After Dutch, German, English and Russian, I am adding Japanese to my range. ○ I teach full-time; it’s not a hobby ○ Good news: for me, learning is not limited to long lists of vocabulary.

Being a student myself, I have the advantage of understanding the student. I think that studying a language is not only about learning vocabulary lists. I have been teaching for 7 years, and have already helped around fifty students of different ages. My Erasmus in Manchester in a situation of total bilingualism has enriched the way I teach and I can pride myself on guaranteeing a fast and pleasant progression! ;) -> NOBODY has "no gift" for languages, the key is just to let you guide.

Mathieu
Private online french lessons with an experienced native teacher in NYC.
Hi everyone, I'm Mathieu, 38 years old, from Paris, France. I'm a full-time professional french teacher. I lived in Shanghai for more than 5 years where I used to teach in french companies and language institutes. Now, I mainly teach private classes as a freelance, one to one. I have a10-year teaching experience in China and France, face-to-face and online through Skype or other similar tools. I'm also a teacher in a business school here in Paris.You can check the comments that a few students of mine left here on my profile, to see that i'm a serious and competent teacher. I'm fluent in english and speak an intermediate chinese mandarin. I have all the materials necessary ready for you, self made PDF, audio files and much more. I always adapt my classes to the student's needs. We can focus on what's the most important to you. Contact me for any further information, I'm ready to discuss your goals and my teaching method with you so that you can make up your mind.

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.
