English as a second language for teenagers and adults

From 46 C$ /h

I have been teaching at school and through Skype since 2006. More than 3000 of my students successfully passed exams, found new job in foreign countries, were promoted due to a new language skill acquired. I have taught students all over the world - Georgia to New Zealand, the Maldives to Russia.
I have always striven hard to keep my classes as interesting thus effective as possible. Understanding the age group of the students, I try to incorporate fun in my classes, which keeps the interest of students alive, and inspires them to take initiatives. Taking into consideration adults’ audience and nuances of work with them, I have acquired an excellent experience in this sphere.

University English Instructor| Started teaching English 9 years ago| Specializing in Conversational English.

My teaching approach is designed to develop communication skills above all. We watch or read materials, such as videos, articles, stories, poems, caricatures, then discuss them; we act out situations from everyday life; we take positions and practice debates. However, this doesn’t mean that we just practice speaking. I also make sure the learner is not running in circles. I’m here to ensure that they do not keep repeating the same mistakes or keep using the same expressions over and over in conversation.
In order to keep making progress, I take my student on a journey that involves:
• Improving their grammar.
• Fixing their pronunciation.
• Enriching their vocabulary by learning to use new words and common idioms.
By the end of this course, you should be able to speak English fluently and confidently.

PS: Because of my academic specialty, I also help with academic writing and creative writing.

I believe one of the best ways to improve your English is to actually use it. My lessons focus on conversation and helping you feel more confident when speaking English in real-life situations.

I work with ESL learners, school students, and adults, adapting lessons to each student's level and goals. We can talk about everyday life, hobbies, school, work, or any topics that interest you.

As we talk, I help you build your vocabulary, improve your grammar, pronunciation, and sentence structure naturally. Instead of spending the whole lesson memorizing rules, you'll have plenty of opportunities to speak, make mistakes, and learn from them in a comfortable environment.

Whether you want to become more confident speaking English, improve your school performance, or simply practice your conversational skills, we can work together at a pace that feels comfortable for you.

Is your child changing school systems, preparing to enter a French- or English-speaking school, or simply looking to become more confident in speaking and writing? I design a tailored programme in French or English. 🇨🇭 🇬🇧 🇫🇷
Who it's for: children and teenagers (primary, middle and high school), in international schools, moving between two systems or catching up.
Children who change schools and countries often are remarkably capable, but they rarely get to build a stable sense of "this is my place." In each lesson, your child practises speaking with confidence, leading part of the session, defending an idea and reflecting on their own progress. The goal is not only a stronger level in French or English, but a child who walks into a new classroom knowing they have something to say.
How I work: a first diagnostic lesson to identify level and goals, followed by a personalised learning plan. Every session is prepared for your child: conversation, reading, writing and study skills. Parents receive regular feedback.
My background: bilingual English-French, teaching experience in France, Finland (non-formal education) and an elite international school in Switzerland.
I take a limited number of students to guarantee quality follow-up.
To start, book a first diagnostic lesson.
🇫🇷 🇬🇧🇨🇭
