Conversational English, language and literature as well as TPR. English Lessons help improve listening, reading, and writing skills

From 22 C$ /h

English lessons build vocabulary as well as confidence when speaking English. Lessons can also improve listening, reading, and writing skills.

In my lessons we discuss animated short films and images to improve conversational skills. We will also complete a wide range of reading, grammar, and vocabulary exercises.

For my younger students I implement TPR (Total Physical Response). TPR is used in teaching to create a neural link between speech and action.

Total Physical Response has a lot of benefits, particularly for beginners and young learners.

The pairing of movement with language is innately associated with effective learning

Students actively use both the left and right sides of their brains

It works with both small and large groups

It sharpens students’ listening skills

Students are not required to speak until they are ready to, therefore creating a “safe zone” that greatly lowers inhibitions and stress

Students will appreciate the change of pace and potential for humor—even teenagers will crack a smile!

My name is Nicolas, and I'm an English teacher with eight years of teaching experience. I've spoken English since I was a teenager and have continued to practice it through my many travels. My level was further improved during an extended stay in Canada. In 2018, I passed the TEFL Cambridge exam, the English as a Foreign Language Teaching Certificate.

Having also gone through the process of learning to speak this language, I am well aware of the different stages my students go through. This helps considerably.

Practice is prioritized throughout the learning process to foster independence as quickly as possible. Basic grammar and vocabulary concepts are also covered, depending on the student's level.

This course is aimed at:

- Professionals (business English, interview preparation).

Feel free to contact me for more information.

Do you want to use English with more confidence at work or in everyday situations, but traditional courses haven't helped you express yourself as you need? I'm Ian, a native English speaker with a PhD in English and experience teaching at the university level and as a second language. I'm also a language learner and have lived abroad, so I know firsthand some of the challenges of learning and using another language.

The classes are designed for adults, especially professionals and intermediate to advanced students (B1–C2). We'll start by discussing your goals, level, interests, and availability, and then design a practical and realistic plan. Depending on your needs, we'll work on conversation, listening comprehension, pronunciation, vocabulary, applied grammar, and writing. We can practice meetings, presentations, interviews, and other specific situations, using films, TV series, music, or topics that interest you as learning materials. You'll receive clear feedback and a manageable pace for continued practice between classes. The priority is to use English regularly and express yourself confidently: grammar is at the service of communication.

Hello !
Currently a second-year undergraduate student in languages (English and Spanish) at the University of Lille, I offer private lessons, homework help and academic support.

What I propose:

- Primary & Secondary School:
> Comprehensive homework help: regular support to ensure proper understanding of lessons and homework.
> Support in general subjects: review of the basics (mathematics, French...), organizational methods and practical exercises to progress with confidence.

- Middle School & High School:
> English & Spanish: strengthening of grammatical foundations, enrichment of vocabulary, work on pronunciation and training in oral and written expression (preparation for tests, continuous assessment, general fluency).

- Special High School – STMG Track:
Having myself obtained a STMG baccalaureate, I am thoroughly familiar with the curriculum and requirements of this track. I can therefore effectively support and guide first and final year STMG students in their specific subjects, exam methodology, and baccalaureate preparation.

My method:
Patient, attentive, and caring, I adapt each session to the student's pace. My goal is to restore their confidence, teach them effective study methods, and help them progress smoothly.
Lessons can take place at your home or via video call, depending on your preference. Feel free to contact me to discuss your needs!
