English practice and review with a native English speaker

From 92.87 C$ /h

Hello there! I am currently a native New Yorker living in Geneva for University. Education is a passion of mine, and was the subject in which I recieved my first degree. So for me, providing english lessons for indiviuals who either wish to better their english or begin their english journey is not only my way of providing a service for the community. But also benificial for me as I continue to refine my pedogogoical technique and practice.

I am immensly flexible and am able to adjust each session to the needs of my students. Whether you wish to simply practice casual/converstional english, are studying for exams, or plan to travel soon, each session will be planned and oriented towards your needs as an english learner!

About Me

As a yound educator, I believe that there is a space for every student to be represented and heard. No matter their proficiency or identity, my role is to assure that all students feel both represented through all aspects of the instructional process and walk away with a better understanding of the subject area. Through the continued diversification of taught material, I hope to provide students with the opportunity to form their own bonds and understandings of language and their surroundings. By ways of multi-culturalism and social contextualization, I hope to help individuals in their journey towards global citizenship.

I hold British and French nationalities and speak both languages (and Spanish). I am specialised in teaching French as a foreign language (literature and grammar). I am a very adaptable and enthusiastic person. I have a TEFLA certificate (for teaching English) and a CEFLE certificate (for teaching French). I have worked in different organisations, such as the Alliance Française (Cusco, Peru), ARA ( Geneva) and given private lessons to adults, adolescents and children. I am familiar with the Swiss and French education systems. I am very curious and like to discover new cultures and to share mine. I like to go to concerts and the opera. I have good language and teaching skills and can provide recommendations on request. Thanks Anastassja

Graduated with CELFLE / CELTA diploma, I have teaching experiences with adults also with children.

Whatever the level and situation of the student, I adapt to the needs, wishes, objectives while delivering my own expertise and approach in order to identify possible gaps and focus on points to work as a priority.

Serious, caring, motivated, involved, pedagogue and punctual, I am very involved in the success of each of my students to allow them to progress and am available to answer their questions or those of their parents even outside the hours of course. I offer a personalized pedagogical accompaniment and aims at transmitting effective and proven working methods. I also seek to empower and empower students, to give them the confidence they need, and to be demanding so that they succeed.

I have been teaching for more than 20 years in Geneva(Organizations/Group courses/Preparation for Delf etc..) at all levels and for the past years I have specialized in Survival modules and exam preparation for Fide exam( required for permit B/ C and citizenship) Usually I come to student's home and we have 1 or 2 lessons of 1h30 peer week depending on their needs and focus..As I am teaching between Geneva and Nyon, I am more in favor of meeting the students at their home.
Let me know if I could be of any help and then we could organize a meeting depending on your availabilities

To improve in a subject, you just need to know the rules and the rest becomes child's play. Having been a recent student, I adapt to the person and personalize my course. Pedagogy is the most important, so I try to make my course come alive!
I obtained a baccalaureate in Economics and Social Sciences (ES) with honors, a double bachelor's degree in History and Economics with honors and a master's degree in visual arts at HEAD.

This course is intended for students, from primary to mature.
Also for adults.

I taught English in middle school and high school in France.
I also gave English and FLE (French as a Foreign Language) lessons for adults.
I have also worked with children and adolescents with different specific needs (hearing impaired, ASD, obsessive behavioral disorders, dyslexia, dyspraxia).
So I adapt to each profile.
Dynamic and positive in nature.

This course really adapts to your current English skills and personal learning goals. It contains on a general review of grammar but with emphasis upon speaking and getting comfortable with the English language. Strong attention will be given to the development of composition and critical reading skills. Vocabulary development and outside reading will complement this course of study.

English is an essential language for international communication, and this course is designed for beginner French speakers who want to learn to speak English in a simple and practical way. In this course, you'll learn the basics of English, including how to introduce yourself, ask simple questions, and use everyday phrases.

We'll start with simple sentences and everyday dialogues, such as greetings, farewells, and personal introductions. You'll also develop your basic vocabulary and learn how to use basic English grammar to form correct sentences.

By the end of the course, you will be able to communicate effectively in simple situations, and you will have the tools necessary to progress to a more advanced level.

I was originally born and raised in California, U.S.A. and am excited about the opportunity to continue teaching in Switzerland, where I am currently taking courses at the Geneva Graduate Institute. After completing a degree in International Relations and Social Anthropology at the University of St Andrews, I am confident in my ability to teach English for all levels. I have experience working as a teacher at my local preschool for a year, as well as a tutor for exchange students at my university. My class will focus on advancing dialogue and grammar to assist in the individuals assignments and personal goals. I am also comfortable working with students with learning disabilities, and I will make sure the student feels self-assured and positive about their efforts!
