Whether at school age, to improve your knowledge or simply to practice the language, I will be happy to help you in French or in English!

The best way to learn a language is to practice it over and over again! Whether through conversation or playful games, radio or books!

My mothertongue is french, I'm from Jura and I moved in Friborg because of the university. I always loved french and so I had also the chance to write for a newspaper. Beside that, I went to Germany and to USA for improving my languages skills and that is why I know what does it mean to learn a new language and to keep practicing it! I would love to help you if I can :)

The learning of the English and German language is done in a proactive and stimulating way, learning via the active way with simulation and exercise in order to obtain optimal results after a more or less short period of learning, through the grammar and vocabulary in order to learn the real language used by the English and German populations.
Regarding chemistry lessons, learning through visualization with contextual settings and explanations accompanied by examples is necessary to fully understand. Teach the student to get into the habit of doing his exercises and to understand the statements so that he is able to do them alone.

Hello !
Having acquired my Federal Maturity certificate by correspondence in 2021 (all courses learned self-taught), I can accompany a student in learning the branches of the Maturity but also with regard to administrative aspects. Especially to manage the registration for the Federal Maturity by correspondence which requires a lot of time and different papers. Having already been there, I can gladly help you and save you hours of trying to find information from right to left.
I can of course also help you in writing a Maturity work.

I have at my disposal several books and exercise books from the EPSU (School of preparation and university support) specially written for the federal maturity. They are very complete. I know they are very expensive and I can gladly lend them for exam preparation. I also have several books and documents used in the gymnasium and especially old Federal Maturity exams from the years 2015 to 2020 that I had also bought. So I have the necessary equipment to give quality lessons and exercises.

I did my Maturité with a specific option in Economics and Law and a complementary option in Philosophy.
My strong subjects are economics, physics, French and English but I also do very well in the other subjects.

How to prepare for a media interview? What means should be used to fight his fear of the camera and improve his image? How to present yourself and your project in front of a camera?

How to present yourself and your project to the media?

Targeted content according to your project: Verbal and/or gestural communication; Seduction of the lens and/or microphone; Improvisation in front of a microphone and/or camera; Voice & gaze; One or two camera games; Chronic; Animation; Reporting; Live radio & TV; Interview; Narration; Speech in all its forms (...).

In short, several objectives:
◾ Confront your shyness in front of the microphone/camera.
◾ Understand his speech and diction.
◾ Tame the media environment (radio/tv).
◾ Become familiar with your image and voice.
◾ Manage your speaking time.

Through exercises (diction, voice, presence, breathing, presentations, time management), role plays, simulated interviews and familiarization with their image and voice, participants evolve at their own pace within a framework flexible teaching.

Please note that during the videoconference session, all the notes are transcribed gradually on the chat so that you can access them at any time when you wish.

Indeed, speaking is a predominantly physical activity, which, while taking care of its image, is based on a body, a voice, a breath, a rhythm (diction) and an emotion (the imagination and the sensations ) reflecting the speaker's involvement in his speech. How to send a clear message? How to make the difference, to make an impression?

Knowing how to speak, act and interact in public is almost a necessity today: your public speaking must be effective and efficient with clear, simple and impactful messages.

Simple and pragmatic tools will be presented for: generating listening ● making an impression ● fostering confidence ● generating need ● motivating teams by explaining a strategy ● getting messages across within groups ● overcoming shyness by assimilating 3 CRV axes (body-breathing-voice) ● better manage disagreement or conflict.

Mastered, the method allows:
• to improve self-confidence and stress management with the development of the speaker's (verbal-corporal) ease, his public speaking skills and his sense of repartee and improvisation.
• to work on their ease, leadership, charisma, creativity and personal development through role-playing scenarios.
* to improve the characteristics of the spoken voice (timbre, pitches, intention, flow).
* convey your message through your image, while gaining improvisation skills and responsiveness.

Supplemented by basic exercises (diction, voice, presence, breathing, presentation, time management), role plays, improvisations and simulations. With the key word: pronunciation, diction / articulation, the sense of repartee.

My name is Victoria and I have been teaching languages since 2018. I have worked with several language schools. Over 5,000 lessons taught have allowed me to develop a precise understanding of learners' needs and to know how to support them effectively, whatever their objectives and level of language proficiency.

I host engaging, remote English sessions designed to transform language learning into a creative, immersive experience. Rather than focusing on rigid grammar drills, my classes turn unconventional and specialized topics into dynamic conversations that spark curiosity and confidence.

Each 60 minute live session blends storytelling, real-world themes, and hands-on experimentation. We explore English through culture, creative projects, niche interests, and meaningful dialogue. Whether we are analyzing a song, building a personal brand narrative, or discussing sustainability and community, the goal is always the same: connection over memorization.

My workshops prioritize human interaction, expressive communication, and practical language use. Students leave not only with improved English skills, but with ideas, inspiration, and the confidence to use their voice naturally and creatively.
