Let’s Talk! Learning How to Effectively Communicate

From 26.66 C$ /h

Do you want to truly communicate with someone? Is there someone in your life who you’re looking to reach on a more personal level? Or perhaps you’re looking to be more open about yourself but you just don’t know how.
I struggled with this for a long time. I’d have conversation after conversation with friends,family members or even coworkers. Somehow,it seemed like the needs still weren’t being met on either side. Or worse yet,on their side but never mine. I yielded to this and settled with the expectation that this is obviously just how life goes,even if it’s frustrating. When I eventually did find my voice,the confidence was growing,but somehow it’s like I still wasn’t being heard.
That’s because I was talking,but never Communicating. And even when I did,it wasn’t being done effectively (believe me,there’s a huge difference).
Did it seem like I took a peek inside your head while you were reading this? Were you nodding along mentally?
It’s such a common struggle. And if you happen to be an introvert in a sea of loud voices,you likely know what it’s like to be drowned out a lot of the times. The thing is,a struggle like this can be a hold back to any kind of relationship that has the potential to thrive and flourish. But with the time and willingness to at least try,I can promise you from personal experience that it doesn’t have to be.
Communication is a powerful tool,it’s even been described as "the lifeblood of any healthy relationship".
But first,you gotta know HOW to do it. Are you communicating,or are you just talking? Is there a difference?
Let’s find out.
Let’s build bridges,
Let’s delve beyond words,
Let’s start somewhere,
Let’s Talk!

Talk Like a Jamaican! - Jamaican Patwa (Patois) Lessons for All Ages and Stages

69.98 C$ /h

Jamaican Patwa (Patois) or Creole,is in the Heart and Soul of every Jamaican,or as we call each other, 'Yardie'.
It’s a colorful, vibrant and incredibly expressive language filled with a ton load of love and gut busting laughter!
IF you understand it that is. Truth is,unless you’re a yardie,related to them, or are in some way familiar enough with the dialect,it’s hardly something you can just readily pick up on. And the Patwa Hollywood tries to sell you in their movies? Don’t buy it. We always wonder who’s teaching them.
Learn from a real native and let’s have fun!
Maybe you’ve always wondered what that one Jamaican song you really like but can’t understand,said.
Is it that coworker that you know is really funny but you just can’t get what they’re saying?
Or perhaps you plan on traveling here someday and wanna be able to understand what the person trying to sell you something is saying (because believe me,someone will be trying to sell you something ). Doesn’t matter. I’m here to help make it make sense.
Come chat some Patwa wid me! =)

I've been teaching Italian for over 5 years, armed with a Double Degree in Languages, plus not one, but two Masters in teaching Italian! 🎓 🇮🇹 And here's the ciliegina sulla torta: I just kicked off a BSc in International Communication.

We begin by assessing your level, goals, and needs. Together, we craft a personalized plan, ensuring that your learning experience is tailored, efficient, and effective. The classes are tailored to suit your individual level, needs, and goals. Depending on you, we will use textbooks, online tools, or articles among others.

My approach encompasses various aspects such as conversation, vocabulary, grammar, Italian culture, or test preparation.

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.

Hello everyone!
I'm Giorgia and I come from Torino, Italy.
I offer my native knowledge of Italian to any of you, who wants to discover this beautiful language.

I teach for all levels, from very beginners to advanced speakers, passing through amateurs or simply curious of any age. I can also help with university exams and school works/assignments.
Being a pianist and a piano teacher, I already have lots of experience with teaching and pedagogical approach with the whole range of ages.

The lesson is intended to meet the student needs: the focus can be on the grammar, conversation or literature. In case of a middle-level speaker, the lesson will cover all four language's abilities: listening, speaking, writing and reading. My suggestion of a well planned lesson is, for any level, to divide it into two parts: grammar first and then conversation (covering all the abilities mentioned above).

Thank you for your attention and looking forward to meeting you !!

➤ Being a good manager is also being a good communicator. After all, a strategy can only be put into practice if you show yourself capable of interacting with your employees, of being a source of inspiration for them and of listening to their concerns. Unfortunately, not all managers naturally excel in this role and their difficulties in asserting themselves as true leaders is often attributable to their difficulties in communicating.

➤ The objective would then be to explore together the areas of improvement in terms of communication know-how. And managing effectively requires specific and advanced know-how.

➤ In fact, managerial communication corresponds to the interactions between the management of the company and the organization and more specifically, between the manager and his team. This executive is in charge of transmitting information and directives from higher hierarchical levels, supporting internal communication, distilling messages related to his own management to obtain the commitment of his team, all while transmitting a message effectively.

➤ This exercise can therefore be tricky: this is why it is important to choose the right mediator in order to be well supported, not only to be understood by those around him, but also to carry out his mission.

➤ What to communicate? When ? Whose ? These questions will find an answer in the consistency of the actions undertaken. Good managerial communication will thus aim to exchange / dialogue effectively with its employees, maintain a close link between the different layers of the company, bring human relations back to the heart of the company, establish a climate of trust and good team cohesion, motivate by inspiring.

➤ In short, each session combines techniques & practice exercises adapted to your everyday situations (filmed with your agreement in order to be reviewed, commented on, decoded together live), so that you can put them into practice immediately, and this from the 1st session.

➤ THE TRAINER:
Trained in Grande Ecole post-preparatory classes & Ivy League university in the United States, our teacher has specialized and has been working for more than 15 years, in Europe and North America, in the field of communication , in reputable international public and private establishments, intervening in forums and conferences, and oriented on two axes: training and coaching, with pedagogy and careful methodology as key words.

➤ PLACE, TIMETABLE, PRICES
✓ Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Fribourg-Zurich-Neuchâtel-Lugano-Montreux-Basel-Neuchâtel-Bern-Lucerne-Brussels-Luxembourg-Paris-Lyon. But currently, these sessions continue to be offered by videoconference in the current context and in accordance with general demand which is almost unanimous on this subject.

✓ Indeed, apart from the classic advantages of videoconferencing (time saving related to travel & their unforeseen events, eco-responsibility, increased schedule flexibility, etc.), the quality of the session & the interaction remain identical. In addition, the entire exchange, notes and recommendations are immediately transcribed on the dedicated chat.

✓ To support us among ourselves & to be pleasant to you in this sustainable / particular period and in a spirit of solidarity, the fees are temporarily reduced and will not increase after the start of our sessions.

✓ Languages: French/English.

✓ The progress following these private sessions is perceptible from 1 to 2 sessions (*2023 study).

✓ As other people do regularly, you can also please your loved ones by offering gift vouchers available all year round.

Preparation for DEFL and DAFL for all levels.

I have a master's degree in business engineering and international trade, a certification in FLE and a master's degree in teaching in progress.

Methodology :
- Initial assessment: For each support I will carry out a diagnostic assessment to identify the student's strengths and weaknesses in the subject concerned (mathematics, French, science, etc.).
- Personalized approach: Courses are adapted to the student's level, with individualized monitoring. This includes practical exercises, targeted revisions, and explanations adapted to each learning pace.
- Progressive objectives: we set short and long-term objectives together to motivate the student and measure their progress.
- Learning techniques: I use interactive methods (online exercises, educational games) and revision sheets to help memorize and understand key concepts (flashcards, etc.)

Typical sessions:
- Course of the sessions:
- Review of previous concepts: 10-15 minutes to review the points covered during the last lesson.
- Lesson of the day: 30-45 minutes to introduce and explain a new concept.
- Practical exercises: 20-30 minutes to apply what has been learned, offering exercises adapted to the student's level.
- Questions and corrections: 10-15 minutes at the end to answer the student's questions and correct mistakes together.
- Regular monitoring: I plan regular assessments to adjust the learning method and adapt the pace of the lessons.

If you’ve ever wondered why your cat acts a certain way, or how to help them feel happier, safer, and more balanced at home, this class is for you. I focus on practical, compassionate guidance tailored to your cat’s unique personality and needs. During our session, you’ll learn interesting things about feline behavior (based on your goals): how to improve daily care, understand feline body language, prevent or reduce unwanted behaviors, and create a more peaceful environment for both you and your cat. Whether you’re struggling with a specific issue or simply want to deepen your bond, I’ll help you see your feline friend in a whole new light.

Although this class is listed under “pet trainer,” my approach is a little different. I don’t train cats in the traditional sense, I help YOU understand THEM. Think of me as a feline behavior translator: someone who explains your cat’s body language, emotional needs, and home environment so you can take better care of them and prevent common behavior issues.

I also combine this with gentle life-coaching principles for the owner. When you’re busy, stressed, or unsure how to handle your cat’s needs, it affects both of you. My goal is to support you and your cat together. Helping you create a calmer, more organized routine while improving your cat’s comfort, confidence, and happiness at home. Whether you want behavior insight, better daily care practices, or guidance to feel more grounded as a cat guardian, I’m here to help both sides of the relationship thrive.
