How to improve your French with a native speaker ?
Hi ! I am a french native speaker who loves French language and literature.
Translator, subtitler and teacher (with a Master in communication and a Phd in Art History & Literature), as well as years of international experience, I am available on line :
- Special insights for students (grammar tips, language expertise, preparation to apply in a French-speaking university, writing CVs and formal letters, preparation for a job interview...).
- Specific preparation in order to work in France or in a French-speaking country (conversation, prononciation, colloquial expressions, courtesy formulas, technical lexicon ...)
- Individual or group courses for companies (commercial lexicon..)
- Coaching for creative writing
In any case, the understanding of the phonemes and the melody of the phrasing are the basis on which you may build your knowledge of French language. For instance, we will refresh together the main prononciation's principles. Then focus on your personal needs (without neglecting grammar) and finally go throug the familiar expressions of the spoken language unless you need to focus on technical language.
To practice with more fun, I use videos, mp3, cultural quizz, as well as extracts from classic or contemporary literary works, newspaper articles, film clips , broadcasts and Flash news... depending on your level and your needs.

Private French lessons for adults and teenagers with native French speaker in Co. MayoFor 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!

Private online french lessons with an experienced native teacherHi everyone,
I'm Mathieu, 40 years old, from Paris, France. I'm a full-time professional french teacher. I lived in Shanghai for more than 5 years where I used to teach in french companies and language institutes.
Now, I mainly teach private classes as a freelance, one to one. I have a 12-year teaching experience in China and France, face-to-face and online through Skype or other similar tools. I'm also a teacher in a business school here in Paris.You can check the comments that a few students of mine left here on my profile, to see that i'm a serious and competent teacher.
I'm fluent in english and speak an intermediate chinese mandarin.
I have all the materials necessary ready for you, self made PDF, audio files and much more. I always adapt my classes to the student's needs. We can focus on what's the most important to you.
Contact me for any further information, I'm ready to discuss your goals and my teaching method with you so that you can make up your mind.
Kevin
Polyglot specialist with 9 years of experience. German in speed mode. Level A1 to C2. No school teaching. I offer you a German course that is not like the others. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches:
If you travel back and forth by train every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options:
1) Memorise the timetable.
2) Realise that the train comes every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m.
In school pedagogy, in textbooks and in normal lessons, the first approach is used - in the course I am offering you, it is the second approach because it is more economical and faster.
My offer is aimed at both pupils and adults who want to learn the German language without time-consuming detours through the madness of fruitless school methods.
Learning is easy, but unlearning things that have become bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, with my customised lessons you will greatly accelerate the learning process while having a positive attitude.
I offer German lessons for individuals or groups (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive science and historical linguistics in particular. My modular programme can be adapted on a case-by-case basis. The converging point of these modules is your independence in spontaneous conversations in real life.
What will not be covered in the course:
learning lists of verbs;
learning lists of nouns with articles;
learning words with their translations;
flashcards;
doing school exercises;
following the syllabus of a booklet;
imposing the English grammar on the German language.
What is particularly important to me:
to motivate my student and to give him a learning rhythm;
to encourage his creativity;
to befriend him with the language;
the letters and their sounds;
to strengthen the memory by training the phonological loop;
to teach blueprints instead of memorising sentences;
to explain how the language works in order to make my student independent as quickly as possible;
to eliminate common preconceptions, such as that 'der' would mean masculine and 'die' feminine, that the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, that verbs would be irregular, that declension would be random and therefore would have to be learnt with each verb...;
to put practice at the centre and only deal with grammar where necessary.
A first lesson will give you a sound idea of my pedagogy.

Bonjour! Je m'appelle Lucía, je suis professore d'espagnol au Japon 🇯🇵, titulaire d'un master en enseignement de l'espagnol, et passionatenée par l'enseignement. Currently, I am preparing a doctorate in linguistics applied to the language training
Je connais bien les défis de l'aprentissage des langues. After studying the core 🇰🇷 pendant trois ans, je suis partie en Corée. Là-bas, je me suis rendu compte que je ne parlais pas aussi bien que je le pensais. This is great for the course of conversation with a native locutor, autour de thèmes variés per semaine, que j'ai vraiment pris confiance. Aujourd'hui, j'applique this method in mes cours d'espagnol, que j'adore enseigner!
This new course is entièrement axé sur la conversation. You can speak in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere, and practice the language of nature and effectiveness. You offer a personal return 📝, you help to correct your errors in real time, to improve your pronunciation and enrich your vocabulary.
What is your level, you are at your own pleasure! And if you're just starting out, you'll be advised to start with the cours réguliers, or you'll have to play the grammatical and conversational ensemble.
No rate for this occasion de faire passer votre espagnol au linie supérieur! 🚀
