Shakespeare Comes to Life in this Dramatic Reading Class

From 53.3 C$ /h

Have you dreamt of reading Shakespeare and making sense of his words ? Did you know that some Shakespearian plays are easier to tackle than others ? In this class we will be looking at one of Shakespeare's fantasy comedies or one of his tragedies. We will read the play together and discuss the usage of words, as well as its historical contexts. We will study the most important passages in the way they have influenced world culture. I encourage my students to memorise these passages by heart, a gratifying experience.

Cours d'anglais pour les enfants et les adolescents ( débutant - préparation du Toefl )

53.3 C$ /h

For the last few years, I've been working for a prestigious language agency in France. I have a lot of experience working with kids and teenagers. Each tutorial is geared around the needs of the individual child. Some children are visual learners, others are more tactile, while others still have difficulty focusing.

For beginner students, we work with visuals and then we do a lot of role playing, identifying the visuals we revised earlier. One of the games we play that kids love is The Grocer, where they sell or buy the items on display. We also play The Pub ( restaurant) and we use real menus and paper money. There's lots of signing and dancing, of course....

For the older kids, we work on things such as poetry, audio-skills by watching and discussing video clips, and lots more. I have one ESL student who is interested in literature and we tackled some of the easier classics like Hemingway. I also assign projects such as creating an English YouTube channel, a comic book series, cooking presentations, to name some of the best projects I've had over the years.

I have experience teaching through the net. In the past we've used Skype, since it's free (unlike zoom ). I've taught students as young as 9 through Skype.

This class is for those looking to learn English as a second language. From grammar and vocabulary to conversational skills, you will learn both everyday and more formal English.

I am TEFL qualified to teach all levels from complete beginner to C2. Whether you need help learning or perfecting grammar, would like to improve pronunciation and conversation, or need help in writing academic English, we can arrange a study plan that suits you.

I can also help with translations and preparation of documents in English.

I am an established English teacher and Tutor, with a focus on practical English (holding conversations, developing pronunciation and accent). I have taught everyone, from complete beginners to near-fluent speakers. I prefer to tailor my classes to the student: if you enjoy literature, we can work on a book together; if you are interested in politics, I can curate a lesson for you.

-My mother tongue language is English and I have a Bilingual diploma in French (over 10 years of schooling in French). I'm currently at Paris Dauphine University for an academic exchange, but I'm from Toronto, Canada. I'm majoring in Finance.
-My goal is to improve students' sentence structuring, vocabulary, and pronunciation of the English language. Depending on the level you're at and what you wish to take away from my tutoring, I will cater my lessons to your needs. I will assign practice exercises and recommend good mediums for further learning.
-This class is targeted towards those who wish to pursue greater fluency in English and who are native French Speakers because I will be able to give examples in French that will help your understanding. If you are just beginning to learn English or struggle with it greatly, I am a very patient and understanding person, so don't worry!

Bachelor of the Literary series with an average of 20.36 / 20 and currently a journalism student at Sorbonne University, I give lessons for the youngest to high school students, with needs in the following subjects: French, literature, English, Latin and Mathematics (the latter subject is for children aged 6 to 12). Specialized in reinforced English, my sensitivity for literary subjects allows me to pass on my knowledge with a view of a passionate literary, modern as well as classic.

English teacher since 2014, I've worked with all ages. Talking since the first class being my focus, we will learn together how to master English as simple as your mother tongue.

Learning a second language has the same process as your native language. First, you need to listen a lot and identify in which situation certain expressions are used. Then, we will reproduce these expressions learning how to write and read at the same time!

With a adapting methodology, I will be your guide in this smooth ride to a whole new world!

You want intensive speaking practice, focused on tenses.
You don't understand when to use the past tense or the present perfect.

Sessions to practice oral English during which the trainer puts four trainees of equivalent level into situation thanks to board games and guides them in their speaking.

My approach is based on a structured and supportive teaching method: reviewing the basics if necessary, progressively working on grammar and vocabulary, developing listening and speaking skills, and acquiring effective study techniques.
