Qualified teacher offers individualized teaching, assistance in preparing for quizzes or exams.

The method?

It is a teaching of language through games, art, culture and reading (press or literary). My central point is communication (understanding what is communicated to us and communicating). Teaching is functional and cooperative.

The acquisition of language skills is inseparable from cultural skills. I emphasize not only the different learning experiences that our daily lives offer us but also we want learners to talk about their culture. It’s interculturality that I prefer.

Group language teaching allows for the exchange and sharing of cultures, thus promoting communication based on each person's experience but also on their daily life in a new environment.

The objective is to learn with pleasure, using the language with creativity and inventiveness, without being afraid of our “mistakes”.

Educational material is no longer limited to classic learning books and grammar and exercise books. We use the play as educational material from which lessons and exercises are developed. With images, music, newspaper articles, films, poems...

Note that during the videoconference session, all the notes are transcribed in the chat so that you can access them at any time when you wish.

Statistically, the progression following these private sessions is quickly noticeable, from 2 sessions. (study 2020)

PLACES :
- Locations: Geneva - Lausanne - Friborg - Neuchâtel - Montreux - Basel - Sion - Sierre - Morges - Bienne.

But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (example: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (example: chat notes that can be read later).
In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to suit everyone perfectly, take place in a very optimal way and generate a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm).

Holding two master's degrees in Romance and Germanic languages and literatures, I have over 18 years of experience in teaching languages at primary, secondary and university levels.
Specializing in culturally diverse educational contexts, I have lived and taught in Latin America (Ecuador and Brazil), the United States, Spain, and Dutch-speaking Belgium. These experiences have allowed me to reach a near-native level in Portuguese, Spanish, English, and Dutch.

My goal is first and foremost to develop your understanding of the language, so that oral expression can develop gradually and with confidence.

Through dynamic and contextualized teaching methods: concrete activities, role-playing and interactive exercises.
I combine a strong linguistic knowledge with modern and innovative teaching methods, based on immersion, contextual learning, and everyday life situations. I place particular importance on the active participation of learners, both orally and in writing.
I primarily use the immersion method: lessons are conducted in the target language, allowing for natural and effective progress. Of course, you can use your native language to ask questions if needed.
These scientifically recognized approaches promote both rapid and lasting learning. My courses are structured, interactive, and fully tailored to the specific needs of each learner, guaranteeing concrete results.

¿cómo estás?☺️
My name is Joana. I am a native Spanish teacher, with a degree in Spanish Literature and Language and a Master's degree in Spanish as a foreign language (UNED Faculty).
■ Since 2009 I have been working at the Cervantes Institute as an OFFICIAL EXAMINER of DELE diplomas (Diploma in Spanish as a Foreign Language)
(I am fluent in French, so during the course I give all the necessary explanations in French on grammatical rules or vocabulary.
Having extensive teaching experience, I prepare students/adults for all levels of the DELE Spanish Diplomas and for all official Spanish exams within Universities.
● Spanish courses for adults who intend to travel or live in a Spanish-speaking country.
● Specialized fun Spanish courses for children (6-13 years old), audiovisual material, interactive games on the internet, choice of textbooks taking into account their age. Children learn the language through experiences and experiences while having fun.
● Help with school homework/exams for French students (all levels, + preparation for BTS, CNED)
● Spanish courses for adults who use Spanish in a professional context (Business Spanish: tourism/restaurants, law, etc.)
● Spanish pronunciation/phonetics/conversation courses (exercises provided by the Cervantes Institute). During my Master's degree, I specialized in Spanish phonetics for foreigners. Students can achieve a very good level of oral production even if they are beginners* :)
● Written production, grammar, oral and written comprehension.
● Spanish civilization course.
I live in Spain, so I give all my classes on Skype.
Skype classes are very flexible and as effective as face-to-face classes! (100% success rate for all Cervantes Institute DELE diplomas and all university exams!)
■ COMPLETE learning materials provided to all my students according to their personal level/age/interests (DELE preparation manual, grammar book, pronunciation guide, notes, mp3 audios)

I will be happy to read from you.

A greeting,

Studying a language is not just about memorizing lists of verbs, it is above all about being able to express oneself with confidence.
My approach is simple: clarity and practical application are my priorities. Whether it's for French (FLE), Spanish, or Italian, we'll work on what truly matters to you.
Zero blockage: We practice speaking from the beginning so that speaking becomes natural.
Current content: We use a variety of media (videos, articles, podcasts) to understand the language as it is spoken today.
School effectiveness: For students, we go straight to the essential points to unlock understanding.

My approach for our first meeting:
The first session is dedicated to your goals and interests. I like to build my lessons around your passions: this allows us to work on specific vocabulary and conversation topics that truly motivate you. A lesson tailored to you is a lesson where progress is faster.

When do we start?

➤ Turn your trades into victories!

Whether it's to negotiate a contract or remuneration, defend an idea, advance a project, start a business, convince a partner, gain the support of a team, resolve a conflict or simply make yourself better understood, one thing can make all the difference: knowing who you are dealing with and how to communicate with that person.

Because there is no single way to communicate effectively.

The same method won't work for everyone. A rational person isn't persuaded in the same way as an emotional one. A cautious person doesn't react like an ambitious one. A decision-maker, a colleague, a client, an investor, a partner, or a loved one doesn't have the same expectations, motivations, or interests.

The goal is therefore to learn to observe, understand, analyze and adapt your communication in order to deploy the right tool, the right method and the right strategy, at the right time and in front of the right person.

➤ Understanding humans to communicate better

Our way of communicating relies largely on understanding certain mechanisms of human psychology.

Human beings are naturally attentive to what directly concerns them. They are sensitive to their interests, needs, fears, curiosity, recognition, need for security, and desire to be understood and valued.

The idea is therefore not simply to say what you have to say, but to understand:
-How can you make your interlocutor want to listen to you?
-How can you present your message so that it makes sense to him?
-How to spark their interest?
-How can we address his concerns before he even expresses them?
-How to create a dynamic favorable to your objective?

For example, rather than immediately presenting an idea solely from your own perspective, you will learn to identify what may interest your interlocutor and to build your communication around their concerns.

Even a simple, common phrase like, "What I'm about to explain could be of real interest to you, particularly because..." can already capture more attention than a presentation focused solely on your own needs. But of course, there are many more techniques for subtly influencing someone.

Similarly, understanding certain mechanisms such as curiosity, self-interest, recognition, trust, consistency, emotion, or risk perception allows for a more relevant and effective approach.

➤ Profiling & analysis of interlocutors

Before communicating effectively, you must first understand who you are addressing.

You will learn to analyze your interlocutor through different elements:
-His way of communicating
-His priorities and interests
-His motivations
️ --His needs and expectations
-His potential resistance and objections
-His decision-making process
-His relationship to risk
-His personal or professional stakes
-The verbal and non-verbal signals he can express
-What can promote or hinder its adoption

The goal: to no longer communicate automatically or identically with everyone.

You will learn to adapt your speech, posture, arguments, questions and strategy depending on the person you are facing.

➤ Advance your projects and ambitions

Do you have a project?

Do you want to create a company, launch an activity, advance within your organization, defend an idea, obtain the agreement of a decision-maker, or get several people or departments to collaborate?

A project is not based solely on its quality.

It also depends on your ability to:
- Identify the right contacts
-Understanding the interests of each stakeholder
-️ Knowing how to approach each person
- Adapt your communication according to the department or function
- Present your project from the angle most relevant to each individual
- Anticipate objections and resistance
- Create alliances and gain support
- Negotiating effectively when interests diverge
- Knowing when to insist, when to rephrase, when to wait, or when to change approach

The same project may require several communication strategies depending on the person you are addressing.

The goal is to give you the necessary tools to understand this dynamic and move your project forward with more method, strategy and efficiency.

➤ Negotiation: much more than defending one's position

Whether it's for negotiating:
A contract
A salary
A partnership
A budget
A strategic project
A career progression
A decision
Or resolve a conflict

Negotiation is not just about finding good arguments.

It also involves understanding:
Who is in front of you?
What he really wants.
What he stands to gain.
This is what he is trying to avoid.
What are his interests?
What are its constraints?
And what strategy can create a favorable outcome?

➤ On the agenda: support tailored to your objectives
-Psychology of communication & understanding of behaviors
-Understanding some fundamental mechanisms of human psychology
-Identify the needs, motivations and interests of your interlocutors
-Understanding why some approaches work with some people and fail with others
-Use interest, curiosity, recognition, trust and other communication levers
-Craft a message that makes people want to listen

Profiling and analysis of interlocutors
-Observe and analyze how a person communicates
-Identify your priorities and your way of working
-Detect potential resistance and objections
-Understanding verbal and behavioral signals
-Adapt your strategy to the person and the context

Persuasive communication
-Formulate your arguments with impact
-To promote your ideas so that they are considered
-Structuring a convincing speech
-Ask the right questions
-Create interest and engagement
-Adapt your language and your approach
-Develop your ability to persuade without engaging in unnecessary power struggles

Strategic negotiation
-Identify and utilize negotiation levers: alternatives, common interests, concessions, and room for maneuver
-Preparing effectively for a negotiation
-Anticipate different scenarios
-Identify the interests and positions of stakeholders
-Build a suitable strategy
-Managing objections and deadlock situations
-Knowing how to evolve a discussion when the initial strategy is not working
-Maximize your chances of reaching a favorable agreement

Project strategy & support
-Clarify your objective and your strategy
-Identify the different stages and priorities
-Understanding who to interact with and in what order
-Prepare your discussions with the various stakeholders
-Adapt your communication according to the departments, partners or decision-makers

Prepare for your important appointments
-Anticipate difficulties and resistance
-Deploy the most relevant tools and methods according to each step

Conflict management and complex situations
-Understanding the mechanisms that give rise to a conflict
-Identify the real issues behind the positions expressed
-Manage your emotions and those of the person you are speaking with
-Develop active and strategic listening
-Moving beyond unnecessary power struggles
-Regaining control of a difficult exchange
-Find constructive and sustainable solutions

The right tool, at the right time, with the right person

This is one of the central principles of this support. Knowing a technique is not enough. You also need to know:
-When to use it.
-With whom.
-In what context?
-And in what a way.

The same technique can be extremely effective with one person and totally counterproductive with another.

You will therefore learn to develop a true strategic reading of interactions, so that you no longer act solely on intuition, but understand the dynamics at play and consciously choose your approach.

➤ Tailored support

This program is aimed particularly at:
-Entrepreneurs and project leaders
-Business leaders and executives
-Managers and executives
-Young professionals
-Self-employed individuals and professionals
-People wishing to advance within their company
-Liberal professionals (lawyers, doctors, etc.)
-Anyone with a project, ambition, or goal to achieve
-Anyone wishing to improve their relationships and communication in a personal setting

Each support program is tailored to your specific situation and concrete objectives.

We can work directly on your projects, negotiations, appointments, relationship difficulties, or professional situations.

The goal is not simply to learn concepts. You learn to use them practically in your own life.

➤ A practical, engaging, and results-oriented teaching approach

We alternate methodological input, analysis of real situations, role-playing, simulations, preparation of your discussions and personalized feedback.

You can bring:
-A project to be developed.
-A negotiation to prepare for.
-An important appointment.
-A conflict to be resolved.
-A difficult person to manage.
-An idea worth defending.
-A business to launch.
-Or simply an ambition you wish to realize.

Let's analyze the situation together:
-What is your objective?
-Who are the relevant stakeholders?
-What are their interests and what is at stake?
-What obstacles might arise?
-What strategy should we adopt?
-What approach should be used?
-Which arguments should be prioritized?
-What tools should be deployed?
-And most importantly: at what point?

➤ Become a strategic communicator

The goal of this support is to enable you to develop a skill that will serve you in all areas of your life:
-Understanding people.
-Understanding the situations.
-Understanding the issues.
-Then adapt your communication and strategy to achieve your objectives.

Whether you are setting up a project, developing a business, advancing professionally, negotiating an opportunity or managing a complex personal situation, you will have concrete methods, tools and strategies to communicate with greater impact, intelligence and efficiency.

Stop letting your projects, ideas, or ambitions depend solely on your intuition.

Learn to understand people, decode situations, and deploy the right strategy at the right time to advance what truly matters to you.
