About Me
Hi, I'm bilingual French/English of Swiss/French and USA origins. I live in the West of Ireland near the Atlantic Ocean. I hold a Degree in Early Childhood Education and I have worked for several years as a child instructor/educator with children aged 4 to 12 years old. I have been a tutor for children, teenagers, adults, and even seniors (4 to 85 y/o).My teaching is always interactive in order to hold my students’ attention during the whole length of the classes, using numerous learning tools (photos, newspaper articles, music, videos, etc.) Naturally, I will focus on the priority of each student. Some students will want to improve their pronunciation, grammatical, and vocabulary skills, others will need to prepare a presentation or a speech at school/work, while others just want to learn a new language to enrich their general knowledge.

Really enjoyed my first lesson with Phil
Recently completed a month of conversational French lessons with Philip and I'm thoroughly impressed. His engaging and tailored approach made each session enjoyable and highly educational. Philip's clear explanations and patience helped me understand complex concepts easily through the use of articles, newspapers, and other materials that made the conversations great. Overall, I've seen significant improvement in my French conversational skills and highly recommend Philip as a tutor.
Thank you, Philip, for an amazing learning experience!

It is obvious that school life can be demanding. It's sometimes difficult to juggle daily responsibilities while ensuring your children succeed in French, English, history and geography.
My name is Phillip, and I'm here to lighten the load for you. With over 20 years of experience as a tutor/tutor, my goal is to help you find balance and offer you a valuable helping hand. As an early childhood educator, I am able to understand the unique needs of each child.
In addition to my expertise, I am bilingual in English and French, with American and French-speaking Swiss origins. Currently based in Ireland, I combine an international perspective with a passion for education. You can count on me to provide your children with high-quality lessons in a caring learning environment.
Allow me to take over, answer their questions, and create an environment conducive to their growth. You no longer have to worry about problematic materials.
Contact me today, and together we can pave the way to a positive educational future for your children. You deserve to relax and leave your children's learning in good hands. Let me accompany you on this path to academic success and well-being.
For the past two decades, I've had the privilege of tutoring in both French and English. My students have ranged in age, background, and origin, spanning children, teenagers, adults, professionals, and even seniors aged 85 and above.
You might wonder why I teach both languages. Well, I am bilingual, with American and Swiss/French roots, and I currently reside in Ireland. This unique blend of experiences equips me with a strong and relevant teaching approach. I possess an intimate understanding of both cultures, enabling me to tailor my classes to the specific needs of my students.
My teaching journey began during my time studying social work in French-speaking Switzerland. I started offering private French and English lessons to supplement my income, and I quickly discovered my passion for it. Even after graduating and embarking on a full-time career, I couldn't bear to give up this rewarding activity. I cherished the opportunity to connect with diverse individuals and assist them in achieving their language goals.
In my teaching methodology, interactivity takes center stage. I employ a variety of engaging learning tools, including photos, newspaper articles, music, videos, and more. My approach is highly adaptable, with a focus on addressing each student's unique priorities. Some seek to refine their pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary, while others require assistance with presentations or speeches for school or work. Some simply aspire to acquire a new language to enrich their general knowledge. I also specialize in teaching younger children, a testament to my educational background and experience.
What you will gain from my courses extends beyond impeccable pronunciation and enhanced vocabulary and grammar. You'll also acquire a profound understanding of the culture associated with each language. When speaking a language, it's essential to appreciate the lifestyle, traditions, and heritage of the nations where it thrives. French and English are spoken as primary languages in numerous countries worldwide, each with its own unique accent and cultural nuances. The learning process is limitless!
In addition to my language instruction, I'm a genealogist and host spiritual (non-religious) seminars in the beautiful West of Ireland. My passion for vegetarian and vegan cuisine adds a flavorful dimension to my life. Furthermore, I hold a degree in Early Childhood Education and have operated a private "Before & Afterschool" facility along with Summer Camps catering to children aged 4 to 12 for many years.
I am genuinely excited about the prospect of meeting and working with you!

give courses in languages and applied biochemistryMy name is Younes and I give language lessons, for me teaching means learning twice so my learning method is based on simplicity and above all you have to move forward according to the student's rhythm to allow him to learn. improve and acquire new bases and be able to assimilate new information without ever becoming saturated.

In addition, I am a young researcher in applied biochemistry and a temporary teacher at the university for 4 years, so for those who have difficulties and gaps in biochemistry, I will be there to simplify you and above all to make you discover the world. wonder of biochemistry and thank you for stopping by.

English language: Intermediate and Advanced levelsLanguages in general and learning and teaching them are some of my biggest passions in life, and I have enjoyed teaching - specially languages - more than most things in life. I always take teaching as a great human experience as well as a learning experience of my own.
Regarding my English courses: Depending on the level and the needs of the student, I can offer an interactive course whether it is speaking skills that you look for (so, in that case, conversation-based sessions) or a more general course or even only a grammar-focused course suited for school or only for reading knowledge. It is indeed easier if the student already knows some basic English passively in order to understand me during the classes (unless you are Persian-speaking which would make it much easier to communicate, if your level is below intermediate). However, it is perfectly fine if your speaking is still at the beginner level.
