German, Luxembourgish and French courses for adults and young people, all levels
From 86 C$ /h
I like to teach through the desire to transmit love for words used in their proper measure. To facilitate students' access to reading and expression. I think these are more important assets than ever in our times. Teaching fascinates me because nothing is more rewarding for a teacher to see their student progress in their efforts and develop a passion for literature. I am not a teacher trained by the Ministry of National Education, far from it, although I once received a training course for primary school teaching. I can, however, count on more than 15 years of experience teaching private lessons. Obviously, I like students who know what is at stake in their studies, that is to say, who understand why they came to me. Who knows, quite simply, what he is doing. For the little ones, it is obviously up to the parents to prepare them. It is important that the student is motivated although I also keep my tips to contribute to this. My method is not rigid. We try to follow a specialized course, book or other, other, yes, but not literally. You also need to know how to soften, let the conversation breathe using oral play dynamics, the conversation from the beginning.
Extra information
I prefer to indicate the teaching material used for each level, for example from A1-B2, however I can also adapt to the material proposed by the student as appropriate. Afterwards, there are also activities such as oral dynamics and conversation classes.

About Me
I am a true man of letters, a former journalist; today I write novels, essays, press articles, and other things.
I love teaching because I want to instill a love for words used in their true measure, making it easier for students to access reading and expression. I believe these are more important assets than ever in our time. Teaching is my passion because nothing is more rewarding for a teacher than seeing their student progress and develop a love for literature. I am not a teacher trained by the Ministry of Education, far from it, although I did take a primary school teaching course some time ago. However, I can draw on over 15 years of experience in private tutoring. Naturally, I appreciate students who understand the purpose of their studies, who grasp why they came to me. Who simply know what they are coming to do. For younger children, it is obviously up to the parents to prepare them. It is important that the student be motivated, although I also have my own strategies to help with this. My method isn't rigid. We try to follow a set course, whether it's a book or something else, yes, but not to the letter. It's also important to know how to adapt, to let things breathe by using dynamic oral games, engaging in conversation from the very beginning.
