I have 17 years of teaching experience in New York (at the School of Visual Arts), European Union and Switzerland. I am a native speaker of the English language who grew up in Singapore, South Africa and New York.

598 of my 600 students passed their CFE, CAE, CPE, IELTS, TOEFL, LCCI 1-4, LNAT and TOLES tests by reaching the score they wanted.

I have prepared more than 80 students for job interviews. I corrected their CVs as well as their motivation letters. We simulated job interviews and I corrected their job interviews recorded on Skype or via conference calls. They all found the job of their dreams and this, for the most part, on their first try.

All teaching materials - lexicons, articles from the English and American press, podcasts, TED talks, YouTube videos, as well as electronic books dealing with grammar, business vocabulary.

In today's world, a good command of the English language is a crucial asset to move forward academically or professionally. As a Master's student in Translation at the University of Geneva, and as someone who took the TOEFL test, I will try to simplify the requirements of the test as much as possible, and walk you through the best ways to answer the questions and to manage your time in order to succeed. I can also help you with your English writing or speaking not just for the test, but for academic or professional purposes.

Speaking a second language or a foreign language is an asset in professional, academic and personal life. Languages provide access to different cultures, worldviews and a wide variety of opportunities around the world.

In this course, you will learn to communicate easily with native speakers and to use the language in various linguistic and daily life situations.

The course is adapted according to the specific needs of each student.

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
