About Me

I started teaching classes by accident when I was 18, during the summer vacation before I entered university. A friend was supposed to take the baccalaureate exams and I offered to help her revise the subjects in which she was having difficulty. I really enjoyed helping her and seeing how quickly she progressed when you took the time to explain things to her calmly, with kindness, without abusing her self-confidence.

I like to transmit my knowledge, take the time to know my students, their "psychology" and help them overcome their blockages, whatever they are. I love the human exchange that results from it and take great pleasure in seeing them evolve, gain self-confidence and build their self-esteem.

If I happen to give classes in groups, in which the benevolence and the solidarity are put in order to ensure an effective, fulfilling and playful work for each of you, I particularly appreciate the private lessons, which allow me to build relationships of trust with my students and create a personalized program, fully adapted to their needs.

I share my time between teaching (via different organizations), translation, proofreading, writing and drama. I also organize writing workshops, personal development and gives theater lessons (preparation for competitions / auditions in French, English and German, improvisation course to work on the concept of self-confidence, on diction, speaking in the professional world).

I like to travel, discover new cultures, ways of thinking that are foreign to me and passionate about art, psychology and sociology.

Hello everyone and welcome to my English and or German lessons taught in group. I organise English and German lessons for children and teenagers and separately adult English group lessons (beginners to advanced). For children and teenagers, interactive activities are used as a way to motivate them, help them remember what they have learned in class and make sure they will be able to apply their language skills in real life context.
For the adults lessons, depending on what the students are willing to learn, we can have discussions based on the news, some grammar, writing... I am open to any suggestions, just tell me your needs and I am going to adapt the next lessons for you. If you wish to invite your friends and make a group with them, just let me know and I will allocate you a time slot.

For private English lessons, please have a look at my other advertisements. The German lessons are usually for beginners/ intermediate (exceptionally advanced levels in German can be organised only if there is a high-demand).

Don't hesitate to contact me should you have further questions. It would be a huge pleasure to integrate you in one of my classes. :-) Lessons usually last 50 minutes.

With 4 years of teaching experience and having grown up in the United States, I offer English courses designed to meet the needs of post-baccalaureate students preparing for an exchange abroad, as well as professionals wishing to strengthen their language skills in an international context.

My approach is resolutely hands-on: each session focuses on practical language practice through real-life scenarios, oral exchanges, targeted exercises and a variety of materials.

My method aims to establish learning habits tailored to each profile. Whether visual, written, or reading-based approaches, instruction is personalized based on each learner's preferences and the most effective memorization method. This adaptation optimizes comprehension, fluency, and knowledge retention.

The objective: to enable each student or professional to acquire a natural, effective and lasting mastery of English, to evolve with confidence in an English-speaking environment.

Hello everyone !
I am a political science student in Lyon, currently in my second year, and I offer English, history-geography, HGGSP and French lessons, as well as the possibility of French lessons for primary, middle and high school levels.

Learn more about my academic background:
- I obtained my general baccalaureate with highest honors and the jury's congratulations
- I obtained my Cambridge Certificate level B2/C1
- I passed my first year of undergraduate studies with a 15 average.

Learn more about my experience:
I always found school easy, with a good memory and quick comprehension. So, two years ago, I decided to put my skills to use. I've worked with several students who learn at a slower pace and need more attention and guidance, as well as some who simply needed a little help with their homework.
In short, I will adapt to your child's/your needs. I am very attentive to my students' comfort. I am a skilled and creative teacher, and I will do everything I can to help you progress at your own pace.

Feel free to contact me for more information.

I am bilingual in French and English and I had the opportunity to study for several years in a boarding school in England. I was therefore immersed in the language on a daily basis, which allowed me to develop a very good level of fluency in both spoken and written English.

I offer courses tailored to each individual's level and objectives.

For those who primarily want to improve their speaking skills, I can provide total immersion courses, with only exchanges in English, obviously adapting the vocabulary and difficulty to the student's level.

For beginners or those who prefer to progress more gradually, I can also alternate between French and English in order to explain concepts, work on vocabulary, grammar and comprehension as we go along.

The main idea is to adapt to each person and to create classes in which they feel comfortable so they can progress without pressure!

After a scientific baccalaureate, I completed three years of preparatory classes (B/L) at the Lycée Janson de Sailly in Paris, before gaining admission to the ENS de Lyon through a competitive entrance exam. There, I pursued a course in social sciences, with a Master 1 in sociology followed by a Master 2 in history, completed in Japan.

Today I offer private lessons and academic support for middle and high school levels in several subjects: mathematics, French/literature, history-geography, economics and social sciences, English, German and Japanese.

My goal is not only to help the student with their homework but also to ensure a real understanding of the course, the acquisition of good working methods and a progression towards greater autonomy.

My method

My tutoring sessions are organized according to a few fundamental principles, which are then adapted to the student's needs:

- Review of the lesson with the student: regularity of learning is key to long-term mastery. Depending on the regularity of the sessions, we take time to review the lesson in order to clarify any misunderstandings and verify the acquisition of the fundamentals.

- Homework or application exercises: In the case of homework, we guide the student's thinking while ensuring they remain in control of the process. If no homework has been assigned, I provide homework or application exercises related to the lesson.

- Review of the method: once the lesson has been reviewed and the exercises completed, it is important to ensure that the method has been mastered. Depending on the level, this may involve exercises in essay writing, commentary, composition, or document analysis.

- Deepening knowledge: depending on the time remaining and the ambitions available, I propose problems of higher difficulty in order to push the student to go further.
If relevant, I can also prepare method or summary sheets with the student so that they can use them on their own as well.

I am available to give lessons in Lyon. I can also give lessons remotely – I have the necessary equipment.

The materials I offer

I therefore offer academic support for high school and middle school students in the following subjects:

Mathematics
I studied mathematics intensively during my three years of preparatory classes for the humanities (B/L), at a level of approximately eight hours per week, equivalent to that of a second-year undergraduate student. I have also previously tutored mathematics.
I primarily offer support from middle school to high school, from remedial work to advanced study.

French and letters
The B/L preparatory class allowed me to follow a particularly intensive teaching in literature, with numerous readings, text analyses and essays.
In particular, I can support students in preparing for the brevet and baccalaureate exams, in understanding texts, and in learning essay writing, commentary, and argumentation.

History geography
I studied history and geography in depth during my B/L preparatory classes, through readings, notes, timelines, essays and research projects.
I then continued my studies at the ENS in Lyon, where I completed a Master's degree in history specializing in Japan. I can therefore support students both in terms of knowledge and methodology for writing essays and analyzing documents.

SES and sociology
I studied economics and sociology during my three years of B/L preparatory classes, then continued my training in social sciences at the ENS of Lyon, where I validated a Master 1 of research in sociology.
I can support high school students in Economics and Social Sciences, particularly in understanding the concepts of the curriculum, building reasoning skills, and improving their essays and document analyses.

English
I have a C1 level in English, certified by the Cambridge C1 Advanced. I also spent a year in Japan in an international university environment, where I took courses in English and wrote my assignments in that language.
I can support students in English, both written and spoken, particularly to consolidate grammar, vocabulary and comprehension.

German
I have been studying German since middle school and have regularly stayed in Germany to improve my language skills. I currently have a C1 level and have already taught German.
I primarily offer support from middle school to high school, as well as remedial courses.

Japanese
I spent a year in Japan as part of my Master 2, where I was able to deepen my Japanese through daily classes and regular practice with Japanese speakers.
I offer courses up to level B1, particularly for students wishing to discover the language, improve their speaking skills, consolidate their basics or prepare for a trip to Japan.

Course format

I am also comfortable in group settings and can accompany up to three students of the same level.
Small group classes can be particularly beneficial for classmates wishing to revise together, prepare for an exam, or work on a subject they are struggling with.
In this case, I offer sliding scale pricing per household to make this formula attractive for everyone.

I can also provide occasional help with correcting homework or personal projects, at a reasonable rate.

I offer in-person lessons in Lyon or online. I have the necessary equipment to ensure effective online lessons.

For home lessons, an additional charge may apply when travel is particularly significant or when schedules are restrictive.

Feel free to contact me specifying the student's level, the subject concerned and the objectives sought: we can then determine together the most suitable course format.

Does English seem complicated in class or do you not dare to speak up? Don't panic! This course has been specially designed for middle school students and complete beginners who want to start again on a solid foundation, without stress and in a good mood.

Together, we'll transform English into a living, easy-to-understand tool. No more boring rote learning: I use concrete examples (TV series, music, games, everyday life) to help you retain vocabulary and grammar naturally.

What we will do during the sessions:

Unlocking oral skills: learning to pronounce and make simple sentences with confidence.

Mastering the middle school curriculum: reviewing lessons not understood in class, preparing for tests and succeeding in homework.

Tailor-made method: progress at your own pace with interactive and fun exercises.
