Whether your goal is personal or professional, speaking is a predominantly physical activity, relying on a body, a voice, a breath, a rhythm (diction) and an emotion (the imagination and the sensations, reflecting the involvement of the speaker in his speech.

How to send a clear message? How to make the difference, to make an impression? How to regain self-confidence and control the management of his emotions?

Knowing how to speak in public is now a necessity for the company and in the company. From a personal point of view, this is a vector for better relationships and optimal messages. On the phone, in a meeting, in front of a client or a banker (...), your public speaking must be effective and efficient with clear, simple and powerful messages, creating a match between the message received and the message sent.

Simple and pragmatic tools will be presented and then put into practice for: generating listening ● making an impression ● fostering trust ● generating need ● motivating teams by explaining a strategy ● getting messages across within groups.

Controlled, the method allows:

• improve self-confidence and stress management with the development of the speaker's fluency (verbal-bodily), his public speaking and his sense of repartee and improvisation

• to work on his ease, leadership, his NLP, his charisma, his creativity and to go towards a certain personal development, through a set of scenarios

* improve the characteristics of the spoken voice (timbre, pitch, intention, flow)

Completed by basic exercises (diction, voice, presence, breathing, presentation, time management ...), role plays, improvisations and simulations will be set up.

With the key words: pronunciation, rhetoric, verbal and non-verbal communication, diction / articulation, the sense of repartee, structured speech (...).

The goal is not only to focus on verbal communication but also on nonverbal communication, so as to make the control of his body, his voice (...), a real and lasting strength.

Depending on the interaction between the trainer - coach and the one who consults, there is no single way to operate: each type of session depends on the needs and difficulties of each.

In all cases, it is very often a question, while adapting to your own needs and after having precisely diagnosed your desired objective and the blockages encountered, to combine the theory (the bases of the studied concept, for example NLP / information asymmetry / the "how to say no" / the tools of non-verbal communication or the application of kinaesthesia) and its application (through exercises and direct applications).

For example, are discussed:

- the fundamentals of public speaking: breathing, gaze and body language

- diction and elocution: rhythm and range of your voice - management of your emotions and your emotional overflow (example: stress) - work on the body, to amplify your charisma and ensure consistency between your message and your body ... with the aim of:

* Enhance your presentation and arouse interest by focusing on your strengths, your qualities ... your personality

* Match the content and form of your message

* Improve your charisma, your self-confidence and the benefits of your emotional intelligence

Postgraduate School Training & Ivy league college in the United States, specialized and worked for over 13 years, in Europe and North America, in the field of communication and public speaking in renowned public and private international institutions, involved in forums and conferences, and focused on two areas: training and coaching, with the key words pedagogy and careful methodology.

PLACES
- Locations: Geneva - Lausanne - Friborg - Neuchâtel - Montreux - Basel - Sion - Sierre - Morges - Bienne. But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of live (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (example: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (example: notes that can be re-read on the chat). In this context, the videoconference sessions for which you asked me to seem to suit everyone perfectly, take place very optimally and generate a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). That is why, at your request, I continue to offer this option. Take good care of yourself and yours!

PROGRAM
A la carte program: evaluated and adapted to each need.

As a doctoral student in comparative literature at the University of Montreal, I offer personalized support in French writing aimed primarily at students and adults wishing to improve their writing.
The sessions may focus on structuring a text, formulating a problem, organizing ideas, clarity of argumentation, syntax, vocabulary, reformulation, or correcting recurring errors.
For students in literature and humanities, I can also support the methodological work related to the dissertation, commentary, text analysis, the construction of a problem and the development of a plan.
The work is based on your own texts, your difficulties, and your goals. The idea is to understand what can be improved, to develop reusable methods, and to progress toward clearer, more precise, and more independent writing. In most cases, significant progress can already be observed after two to three sessions.
This support is also suitable for people whose native language is not French and who wish to gain fluency in their academic or professional writing.

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.
