Holder of a Master's degree in Letters and endowed with a solid experience in private lessons, I provide French lessons for students wishing to:
- consolidate their bases in grammar, spelling
- improve their language skills (allophone students)
- improve their speaking skills (conversation classes)
-profect the written expression
- prepare for ECR exams
- prepare for the written examinations at the end of the studies (maturity, certificate of completion)
- help with the writing of works of maturity (or other works of end of studies), of dissertation
- work on argumentative texts
- acquire a method to analyze literary texts
- learn how to perform bibliographic research

The course material is a Google Docs document that I create in which my explanations, possible links, exercises appear. By reading it regularly, progress will be faster. It can also be used in addition to other documents (files printed by school teachers and/or books) and has many advantages: automatic updating, downloadable on tablets and smartphones, simultaneous monitoring of what is writing.

For help with writing:

The objective is above all to acquire effective tools. The student will thus be able to learn to structure his ideas, argue coherently (and convincingly) and enrich his vocabulary. It is essential for me to have written work from the student between each lesson.

For analyzes of oral literary texts:

In order to optimize the time available (and to put ourselves in conditions closest to oral exams), we choose together an extract from a work that the student will have previously prepared before the lesson. This would take around 20 minutes at most, and ideally just a little before the meeting time. If necessary, I have the habit of taking a paragraph at random which would serve as a basis for analyzing a passage.

For the corrections of end of studies work:

so that the meeting with the student is at the most profitable, I ask him to send me his writings before the meeting.

Apart from my presence with the student, any course involves a preparation time before and after the lesson, including the work that I correct. My goal is to design an individualized course, so I take the time to write detailed comments on corrected work or tips to ensure maximum success for everyone.

For example, an editorial correction can easily be the subject of a detailed commentary of 4 typewritten pages.

For adults (FLE):

In order to optimally prepare the first ones, I take the initiative to inform myself in advance of their objectives / expectations. Whether to practice speaking in everyday life, the professional world or to practice oral presentations, I prepare either PPT or technical sheets in advance that I send by mail ( after booking on the website).

The other alternative is to make a PV of the course that I send (or that I print). Giving importance to keeping a written record on the one hand to better memorize the topics covered, on the other hand to better assimilate the spelling.

Of a general nature, a concrete situation that responds to the learner's needs is the starting point. From this situation, I address the essential grammatical points.

In this class, we practice conversational English by diving into the stories we love. Instead of dry grammar drilling, our focus is entirely on natural discussion centered on books, writing, and cinema. We will chat about character psychology, narrative themes, and storylines. We can even read and analyze short book excerpts or script pieces together, depending on what makes your heart beat faster.

As a writer, I'm especially interested in how language creates emotion, reveals personality, and brings stories to life. Together, we'll explore not only what characters say, but why they say it that way, and how you can use those same natural expressions to sound more confident and natural in your own English.

Don't worry—you don't need to be a literary critic to enjoy these lessons. We use stories as a starting point for conversation, not as an excuse to overanalyze every page or scene. Whether you enjoy discussing your favorite novel, breaking down an unforgettable movie scene, or simply chatting about fictional worlds, the goal is to create a relaxed environment where English feels alive and enjoyable.

It's all about enjoying the language instead of seeing it as something intimidating. Yes, I will correct your mistakes, but mistakes are one of the most valuable parts of learning. They show us what to improve and help build lasting confidence. My goal is for every lesson to feel engaging, encouraging, and something you genuinely look forward to.

This is an open, friendly space for anyone who wants to build real-world speaking confidence, expand their vocabulary, and share their enthusiasm for books and movies. Every lesson is tailored to your interests, goals, and pace, because I believe we learn best when we're genuinely interested in what we're talking about.

MULTILINGUAL LISTENING SUPPORT:
To make your lessons completely stress-free, you are welcome to use your native language whenever you get stuck. I have a strong passive understanding (listening and reading) of several languages, which means I can easily understand you if you speak or write in:

•English (Fluent - MA Degree)
•Serbian (Native)
•Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese & German (Listening & Reading comprehension)

Note: While I mostly understand these languages when you use them, our actual conversation and explanations will be conducted in English or Serbian.

TECHNICAL DETAILS FOR ONLINE LESSONS:
I conduct my lessons via Google Meet (the easiest option—no installation required, you just click the link I send you) or Microsoft Teams, depending on your preference. During our sessions, we will actively use screen sharing, digital learning materials, and interactive notes to ensure your learning experience is highly effective and engaging.

Моя педагогическая работа основана на том, чтобы помочь ребёнку освоить русский язык как живой инструмент мышления, самовыражения и понимания себя.

На занятиях мы развиваем не только грамотность и языковые навыки, но и содержательное понимание русской грамматики, обогащаем устную и письменную речь, формируем орфографическую интуицию и учимся глубоко и осмысленно работать с русской литературой.

В качестве основных инструментов я использую авторские методики, а также философию и методологию вероятностного образования, разработанную Александром Лобоком — доктором психологических наук, философом и создателем модели вероятностного образования. В основе этого подхода лежит идея образования как пространства, в котором ребёнок не просто осваивает заранее заданную программу, а выстраивает собственную образовательную траекторию, развивает авторскую позицию и открывает собственные смыслы.

Для меня русский язык — не самоцель. Его изучение должно помогать ребёнку выражать свой уникальный опыт, формулировать мысли и чувства, понимать себя и ориентироваться в собственном внутреннем мире. Поэтому грамматика, правила и школьная программа становятся инструментами для личностного и интеллектуального развития, а не набором материала для механического запоминания.

Особое место в моей работе занимает русская литература. Мы читаем не только для того, чтобы понять, что хотел сказать автор, но и для того, чтобы увидеть, что его текст может значить лично для ребёнка: какие вопросы он помогает исследовать, какие переживания — осмыслить, какие внутренние проблемы — выразить.

Такой подход делает изучение языка одновременно более глубоким и более эффективным. Когда ребёнку действительно интересно говорить, читать и думать на русском языке, языковое развитие происходит естественно и интенсивно.

Моя цель — не просто научить ребёнка русскому языку, а помочь ему сделать русский язык своим собственным инструментом для мышления, общения, творчества и самопонимания.
