This is particularly useful for students who are preparing for a major written assignment, or for anyone who needs to get some additional help.
    This is a class for students who are struggling to perfect their skills in the English language. I will start with a basic assessment of your skills. Then I will work with the student to develop a comprehensive plan to assist them in understanding the rules of English. My goal is to take students who are struggling and turn them into confident students.
    This course is designed to assist students who are completing their Extended Essays for the IBDP. I will give you the tools you need plan, organize, and ultimately execute a high level project.

Over the past five years, I have had the opportunity to help numerous students in France and abroad, with attention deficit disorder, dyslexia, dysorthography, or simply those seeking self-confidence.

Also, I propose to support you to help you prepare for and succeed in your baccalaureate in the best conditions! (stress management, oral expression for Grand Oral and language orals, methodology for responding to subjects even when the knowledge is not all known or mastered, etc.).

    Learn Armenian language, grammar, literature and history in Western Armenian.
    Western Armenian is a language that has been put in the endangered language's list, and I personally believe that such a rich language should never die. I believe that I am taking a huge initiative to be one of the individuals who'll try to save this important language from disappearing. I try to make my lessons as interacting as possible. The lessons and exercises will be provided through PowerPoint presentations. I try to listen to my student in order to prepare the lesson plan together, according to his needs and preferences. I've always been the smiling and friendly tutor who makes the student comfortable during the lessons. I believe that in order to reach the students you need to understand them also emotionally and psychologically.
