About Emma:
Born in Connecticut, USA, I am a native English speaker and have lived in the Canton of Geneva for a year. I have always been fascinated by French culture. After graduating with a BA in French Studies with a minor in Education and Child Studies at Smith College in 2011, I pursued teaching opportunities across the United States (including Hawaii, California, New York, Connecticut and Massachusetts), then I spent the last 5 years teaching English and French in France and Switzerland. I also hold a study certificate from Paris VII Diderot and I am currently pursuing a master's degree in educational sciences ('AISE' option) at the University of Geneva.

I am an entrepreneur, and I have created tutoring services in French and English in the United States and Switzerland. And There you go ! and Open English (respectively) are the platforms I created myself and on which I provide highly effective one-on-one learning experiences for children and adults of all ages.
Extra information
I use resources and methods that I created in conjunction with business and pre-professional learning materials from Oxford and Cambridge. If desired, we can also use your (school) materials if necessary. I usually teach English in French so you can get the most out of the lesson. For children, I offer homework support, games and activities in English, as well as reading and conversation lessons. Teaching is my passion: I want to help you achieve all your goals and live your dreams in another language.

I take pride in my teaching and my ultimate goal is to help my students advance in their learning as quickly as possible. I realise that we all learn differently and this is why my focus is on individualised lessons- at each student's level to fit their unique needs. Please don't hesitate to introduce yourself- I look forward to working together!

The form of the lessons adapts to the specific requests, needs and problems of the student.

It may include one or more of the following:
- help with homework
- proofreading/corrections of written work
- revisions for exams, essays, courses
- help with presentations, talks etc.
- learning English through exercises and/or conversations

I also generally help with:
- organization of a work / review plan, with creation of a calendar, division of labor etc.
- memorization: different techniques and advice
- the methodology: how to be efficient in your work and in your reading, how to take good notes etc.
- concentration and stress management
- general advice

My studies at university allow me to have access to rare and useful resources for learning English, which can enrich the courses. They also helped me to be more efficient in researching and citing useful sources for courses, dissertations, presentations etc.

Lessons can be given at the student's home, in a municipal library, in a UNIGE building, or by webcam (for example via Jitsi, which is free, practical, and has always worked well with my students).

A qualified French as a foreign language teacher, I give French as a foreign language lessons level A1 to B2 to young people or adults, in particular, at the student's home, or outside.

I also provide academic support to primary and secondary I students in French, math, German, English.

Since 2001 until today, I have given Fle lessons to adult classes from levels A1 to B2 and academic support privately and in various institutions aimed at social integration, in particular to students of multiple nationalities.

For teaching French as a Foreign Language (FLE), I use the CLE method as a common thread: 'progressive grammar', 'progressive communication', 'progressive vocabulary' as well as various educational resources on the internet as well as tools such as quizlet ; I add exercises taken either from 'Switzerland in play', or created according to the needs and requests of the student: games, newspaper articles, stories, songs, and willingly integrate texts which interest the student, but pose difficulties for him.

I am a student at the University of Geneva in international relations and hold a federal maturity in strong mathematics, biology and chemistry. I am also bilingual French-German which allows me to give lessons in both languages.
My goal is to help the student assimilate the points not understood in class so that he feels more comfortable in the subjects where he encounters difficulties. I attach importance not only to the student's understanding and clarification of the material but also to their motivation and desire to learn.
If you are looking for a tutor for mathematics, German, English and/or biology, do not hesitate to contact me!

My course begins by identifying the topics to be covered (first lesson: review of past exams/assignments, questions the student has, etc.). Then, we review any missing theory, and finally, we redo the exercises that are causing difficulty. Each subsequent lesson will start with one or two exercises from the previous session to check if the theory has been properly understood.

Mathematics: calculations, algebra, equations, geometry, trigonometry, logarithms and statistics
