    Literature course (in English or in French - for teenagers)

    Translated by Google. Click to view original.
    The goal is to give the maximum of tools to the student to understand how to analyze a work.
    I fully understand the frustration that this may cause a student to not understand the subject to be analyzed and how to ask his ideas, and I would like to be able to help at best.

    About Me

    Translated by Google. Click to view original.
    IN FRENCH:
    I have always had a passion for languages and have noticed that very often what prevents people from effectively speaking a language is the difficulty of understanding certain grammar rules, certain words, certain expressions. (Why is it like that ?! How do you say that ?!) I also noticed that these questions are sometimes sources of frustration for some people, and I would really like to help these people overcome these questions and quench their curiosity.

    As for literature, I have also always loved work analysis and would like to share with my future students the appropriate techniques for analyzing texts and other works. Again, I understand the source of frustration, and it is extremely annoying to find yourself in front of a text in French (or English) class and not know where to start when the teacher asks to analyze X passage.

    I also offer support in exam preparation and can provide tools for time management and revision.

    IMPORTANT: I have experience with children with ASD and can also provide stress management tools.
    IN ENGLISH:
    I've always had a passion for languages, and I've always had a lot of questions about grammatical rules, some words, some expressions even say this ??) I have also noticed that these questions are often the source of frustrations for some people, and I would sincerely love to help those people to overcome those queries and quench their thirst for knowledge and curiosity.

    Regarding litterature, I've always liked to analyze different works and would like to share with my future students different techniques to analyze a text (or any other media). Again, I understand the frustration you may feel; It's extremely stressful and disheartening to sit before you.

    I also offer support in exam preparation and can provide tools for time management and revision.

    IMPORTANT: I have experience working with children with ASD and can also teach stress management techniques.

    3 years of experience as a private tutor. My students range in age from 6 to 33.
    My name is Lucie, and I am a translation student at the University of Geneva. For three years, I have been helping children and adults learn French with an approach adapted to each level. My goal is to make each lesson enjoyable and interactive, so that learning is a pleasure. I offer tutoring to children from 6 years old and teenagers. I can also help them prepare for their exams. I have experience with children with ASD, and I teach techniques to manage stress and anxiety. _________________ I'm a translation student at the University of Geneva.

    Whether you are a beginner or want to improve your English, I offer tailor-made courses as well as the opportunity to practice one of the two languages, while benefiting from personalized corrections to improve your mastery. We can work together on grammar, as well as conversation or exam preparation, depending on your goals. My approach is focused on communication and practice, in order to allow you to feel comfortable, whether in a professional or personal setting.
    This course is intended for beginners and intermediates requiring support, so mainly young students still at school and having difficulties, or adults wishing to improve their English - either with practice or by clarifying grammar points. The goal is to best help identify gaps and achieve student goals (eg, improve spoken / written English, have a better understanding of English grammar, better understand nuances, learn relevant vocabulary , etc.). The type of learning, the needs, the preferences, the interests and the difficulties will be taken into account in order to create a personalized program adapted to the student without overburdening him / her.
    My main goal is to teach the french language to people still struggling to grasp the intricacies and complexities of the language. I am perfectly aware that French is a language filled with exceptions and rules that can seem strange to grasp for some students. I will try to explain things as clearly as possible, and will very probably drop the formal talk to communicate more casually and ease the learning. (unless you wish me to do otherwise -language level is definitely not a problem and I will switch accordingly to your wish-). I can help you out with: -conversation practice -extention of (relevent) vocabulary -grasping the grammar -grasping expressions -written expression

    School support for exam preparation and academic success
    Student in MBA (Master of Business Administration), and having completed my secondary studies at the Collège du Léman, a renowned international school, I obtained my bilingual federal diploma with honors as well as the American High School diploma. My specific option (OS) in Economics and Law defined my choice of university studies and today I am more than happy to share my knowledge with students of all levels. Having several years of experience in teaching private lessons especially in French (dissertations, text studies and literary analyzes) my method is based on the pedagogy and the adaptation of the content and the form of the course according to the needs of the pupil. I work with the student in order to optimize his academic performance and consolidate his confidence as well as his abilities with a view to obtaining a demanding higher diploma. Please take into consideration that the first lesson consists of a ten-minute session during which a first contact is made with the student in order to identify his shortcomings and set performance objectives.
