Write like Victor Hugo: French writing rules & tips
Learning outcome: write in French with clarity and structure.
My motto: learning by doing! As French people say “C’est en forgeant qu’on devient forgeron!” (Litterally: “It is by forging that one becomes a blacksmith!”).
Tailored for each student’s personal challenges, the class is structured as follows:
>1st session: Assessment of the learner’s level and design of the learning roadmap.
>Before class: write a text from 10 to one page on a topic on history, art or science.
>In-class: text correction and improvement indications.
I work mainly with visual sketches, mind maps, drafts and graphs to provide the learner with insights on the way motivation and memory work.
Covered during classes:
>French grammar: conjugation, spelling, syntax.
>Develop the French writing method:
-the different sentence structures;
-the structure of a paragraph (phrase d'annonce - développement logique - phrase récapitulative - transition)
-the 3-paragraph convention (introduction/développement/conclusion)
-logical argumentation and critical thinking according to French culture

About Me
I'm the creative type: I've been a huge fan of LEGOs for many years, I'm passionate about board games, role games and quest games (treasure hunts, escape games,...). I'm also passionate about teaching and continuously improving my methods. Opening myself to new cultures and learning new languages is another passion of mine: these tutoring classes are an opportunity for me to immerse in Finnish culture and the Finnish language (I speak Spanish, the basics of Lebanese and Chinese).When I was a kid - I'm now 25 - my parents said of me that I was messy and that I lack structure and rigour. Now that I've finished my graduate studies, I can tell that nothing is set in stone: I have a keen sense of detail when it comes to writing, no matter the language. Picking the right word for the right idea is crucial and makes all the difference at school and at work.
I have taught in university for 1st-year students and I have been doing tutoring in French, history, art history, english and math for more than 1 year now. Most of my students have a STEM profile. Their main challenge is to get the logic behind writing a text and learn to develop their ideas: most often, they go straight to the point (A>B>C). They develop their idea as they would demonstrate the validity of a theorem.

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!

Non-formal Latin classes. Multilingual teacher with 10 years of experience. Pronunciation, historical linguistics, semantics.Contrary to popular belief, learning Latin is not like learning the phone book by heart.
I offer you Latin lessons that are unlike any other. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches:
If you take the train back and forth every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options:
1) Learn the schedules by heart.
2) Note that the train arrives every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m.
In school pedagogy, in study notebooks and in ordinary courses, it is the first approach which is adopted - in the courses that I offer you, it is the second because it is more economical and faster.
My offer is aimed at both students and adults who want to learn the Latin language or deepen their knowledge without time-consuming detours through the insanities of school methods which do not produce results.
Learning is easy but unlearning what has become a bad habit is extremely difficult. All the more important it is to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. With my tailor-made teaching you will accelerate your learning in a positive state of mind.
I offer individual or group Latin lessons (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive sciences and in particular historical linguistics.
What will not be the subject of the course:
learn lists of verbs;
learn lists of nouns with their gender;
learn words with their translations;
memory card game;
doing school exercises;
follow the program in a notebook;
impose French grammar on the Latin language.
What matters to me in particular:
motivate my student and give him a learning rhythm;
encourage creativity;
make friends with language;
letters and their sounds
strengthen your memory by working on the phonological loop;
teach construction plans instead of having people learn sentences by heart;
explain how the language works to make my student independent as quickly as possible;
breaking preconceived ideas such as the gammatical gender would have a link with the biological gender, the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, the verbs would be irregular, the declension would be random and therefore to be learned with each verb... ;
place practice at the center and articulate grammar around practice.
In the context of a first course, you can get a well-founded idea of my pedagogy.
I look forward to meeting you.
