French - course from a native speaker adapted to every levels (beginner to advanced)

This course is designed to help you make the best possible progress in French by adapting to your individual level. This course is versatile: it can be a grammar/syntax and French language course, or a literary analysis of French texts.

In order to overcome each student's difficulties, my priority will always be to identify the student's expectations through good communication.

During this course, depending on the student's wishes and needs, we can work on various grammar points, but also on knowledge of various kinds that will enable the student to excel in this language.

About Me

Third-year student at Sciences Po Paris, on exchange at UBC, who graduated in 2021 with a French general baccalaureate général with "Felicitations du jury" (highest honors).

In high school, I took history, geography, geopolitics and political science (HGGSP).

I also took part in the optional courses of history-geography in English and expert mathematics.

At Sciences Po, I have already studied History, Economics, Law, Sociology and Political Science, as well as other courses such as "Intellectuals in their time" and "Key issues of the European Union".

My recent high school experience keeps me abreast of recent reforms. In addition, two internships with the French Ministry of Education (one in junior high and one in high school) have enabled me to understand the recurring difficulties encountered by students.

Education

--> Sciences Po Paris - Dijon Campus (Central and Eastern Europe): cum laude (top 10%). Politics and Government" major, focusing on law, comparative politics and international relations.

--> UBC: exchange year. Mainly political science courses.

Experience / Qualifications

--> 2-month internship in a high school (Dijon):
During this "civic course", I worked in pairs with another Sciences Po student to carry out a project aimed at high school classes in the general and technological streams. We gave talks on the European Union, its creation, enlargement and deepening, as well as on European institutions. We also organized courses and simulations on the European process, including the vote on a European directive and regulation. We also gave classes on EU law as part of the "Droit et grands enjeux du monde contemporain" (DGEMC) course, and took part in the "Enseignement moral et civique" (EMC) course on the workings of the French Fifth Republic, notably by setting up a simulation of a draft law. We felt that these missions were essential, particularly given the current state of affairs surrounding the law in France, a topic that is rarely addressed in high school. We therefore sought to make the concepts we covered about the workings of the Fifth Republic and the European Union more concrete and less superficial.

--> 3-month internship in a secondary school (Dijon):
During this internship, the missions I was given were both protean and enriching. First of all, I was able to give tutoring and homework help, individually or in small groups, to students needing personalized attention. I was also able to attend classes given by different teachers in a variety of subjects. In addition, one of my tasks was to work in pairs to create a video showing a virtual tour of the school and its various facilities. My final assignment was to support a literature teacher in the UPE2A (Unité pédagogique pour élèves allophones arrivants) program. This unit aims to teach the French language to students who have recently arrived in France and are not fluent in it. In this way, I was able to help teach French to around twenty students of varying levels, with the aim of helping them pass the DELF (diplôme d'enseignement de la langue française) at the end of the year, or even the Brevet des collèges.
Having obtained the General Baccalaureate with the congratulations of the jury, while preparing for the IEP competition, I acquired the logic and method required by the history-geography and HGGSP courses at the high school, as well as the knowledge in varied subjects, mainly in human and social sciences (History, Political Science, Law, Economy, Sociology, Humanities, etc.) I had the opportunity to complete an internship in a middle school and another in a high school which allowed me to understand the recurring problems among students as well as the diversity of difficulties sometimes encountered by them. In order to best overcome everyone's difficulties, my priority will always be to identify the student's expectations through good communication. During this course, according to the wishes and needs of the student, we will be able to work on different points of methodology (dissertation, document analysis, etc.), but also on knowledge of varied natures allowing us to excel in these subjects.
This course allows you to progress as best as possible in French by adapting to each person's level. This course is versatile: it can be grammar/syntax and learning French as well as a course in literary analysis of French texts. In order to best overcome everyone's difficulties, my priority will always be to identify the student's expectations through good communication. During this course, according to the wishes and needs of the student, we will be able to work on different points of grammar, but also on knowledge of varied natures allowing us to excel in this language. :)

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.

Arianit
German Language for Beginners (Deutsch - A1 und A2)
German as a foreign language can be hard, especially regarding the grammar part. Always focusing on the structures of the sentences can be challenging and demotivating when trying to connect the sentences in a communication environment. That is why with the help of this class, you'll get more confident in building strong sentences without the stress usually involved. As a foreign speaker of German of over 3 years, there's no other person that understands the struggles better than I do. We will cover all the fundamentals with the background of grammar and syntax so that we are able to create a strong base for future advanced levels.
