Hello! I have been teaching English for five years, to adults and children alike. I offer classes that are uniquely adapted to the students needs and their interests. My aim is to build my student's confidence, by following their line of inquiry — engaging in a rich, and increasingly challenging dialogue with the individual.

My classes are for adults and professionals, who want to:
. Develop and widen their vocabulary;
. Need help preparing for an exam, a paper or an important interview;
. Gain confidence in spoken English;
. Attain a fluent level of spoken and written English

We will begin by identifying the student's greatest interests — those subjects they are most curious about and topics that stimulate them. These topics will be "stimulators", fueling conversations and language activities that the student themselves will eventually lead. Then, we will identify the student's biggest worries regarding the English language — where they are confused, or tend to make mistakes. This will form the workshop part of the lesson, focused on overcoming tricky grammatical mistakes and revising more complex linguistic and phonetic errors.

After 8 years of teaching I have found this tailored approach to be, by far, the most effective. I look forward to collaborating with you soon!

Folk or classical acoustic guitar.

The teaching philosophy is adapted to the level of each individual, according to the pace of work and motivation.

For example, for beginners: Technique of the plectrum or fingers, coordination and correction of the right and left hand. Learning basic chords, simple themes, simple rhythms, reading tablatures (...).

For intermediaries: development of rhythm, construction of chords, writing of tablatures, basic notions of harmony (...).

Depending on your goals, you can learn, if you wish, to play 60 to 80% of current music from the first lessons, which often use the same chords and the same techniques. The objectives take into consideration the following points:

-Study of various playing techniques, chords, harmony, music of your choice, rhythm, with reading of tablature, teaching structured around the repertoire you like, technique of developing the musical ear
- Discovery of the neck, notes and basic positions of open chords
- Left / right hand coordination and rhythm exercises for the right hand
- Learning of different pieces of your choice
- Left hand control exercises, speed and precision
- Learning arpeggios
- Work around muscle memory
- Learning improvisation, musical play with others
- Ear training: use your ears to find chords, melodies, sounds and techniques used
-Spend a pleasant moment of exchange, without unnecessary institutional pressure, while obtaining concrete results
-Understand and discover the many facets of an exciting and user-friendly instrument
- Benefit from personalized advice on your posture and certain pitfalls to avoid when starting alone
-Adjust and clarify your self-taught knowledge
- Learn tablatures / tabs & in English.

Note :
- Possibility to use the guitar available on site, during the test phase.
- As our teacher is also a singing teacher, it is possible to combine the two disciplines: guitar + vocal instrument, and to work on synchronization, style and accuracy.
- Possibility of offering this course (birthday, party, Christmas, event ...) to the person of your choice.

THE TEACHER :
Trained in Grande Ecole post-preparatory classes & Ivy League university in the United States, our teacher has specialized and has worked for more than 15 years, in Europe and North America, in the field, in renowned international public and private establishments, with careful pedagogy and methodology as the watchwords.

PLACES :
- Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Neuchâtel-Montreux-Bâle-Sion-Sierre-Morges-Bienne. But currently, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (ex: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). At your request, I therefore continue to offer them.

At the same time, the learner will be 🚴‍♀️dynamic and well supervised by professional tutors who listen.
The atmosphere is distinguished: 🔥learning, interaction, no routine, no stress.

The learning tools used; videos, audios, texts, articles, images, games, stories...

English, although it is an easier language than some others, can, at times, prove to be complicated.

Bilingual following my childhood spent in England, I offer support from elementary school to high school (and more), whatever your level (basic or not).

Whether it is for a school aid or to better understand English, speak it, review basics that have not been completely acquired, build sentences, write paragraphs, analyze words and use them, improve pronunciation, spelling, translating, or just conversing in English ..., I offer my help.

My services in learning English are quite broad: we will analyze what you are missing and I will adapt the course according to your needs, so that it is no longer a problem.

Currently a third-year engineering student at ESILV after a preparatory class in Mathematics and Physics, I offer private lessons tailored to the needs of each student.
I can tutor middle school and high school students in mathematics, physics, computer science, as well as history, French, philosophy, and Spanish. I also offer advanced courses in mathematics, physics, and computer science.

My teaching method is based on a structured and proven approach, which I developed and refined during the private lessons I gave in preparatory classes.
First session: reading and understanding the lesson, creating a summary sheet, application exercises, then exercises to do for the next session.
Subsequent sessions: quick oral review based on the completed worksheet, detailed correction of exercises and further exploration of key concepts.
This method allows the student to consolidate their foundations, gain rigor and autonomy, while progressing effectively.

Mes cours seront essentiellement de la discussion adaptée au niveau de l’élève. Nos leçons pourront se construire en fonction des thématiques abordées à l’école. Nous travaillerons sur ses éventuelles difficultés. Ce sera une aide aux devoirs approfondie : la conversation se fera principalement en anglais, la discussion sera fluide, dans le but de permettre à l’élève d’améliorer les bases de la grammaire et du vocabulaire. Je pourrai par la suite lui donner des exercices en complément de ceux donnés en cours, afin d’approfondir le sujet et guider l’élève au maximum.

English lessons – Conversation and practice
I offer personalized English lessons in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere. I believe the best way to learn a language is through real-life practice, which is why I emphasize conversation and natural interaction.
We can discuss various topics together, read texts or books, work on pronunciation and vocabulary, improve listening and reading comprehension, or simply exchange ideas in English to gain confidence in speaking.
The lessons are tailored to each student's level, interests, and goals. I can also help with homework or school assignments.
The primary objective is to make learning English natural, enjoyable and effective, by practicing regularly in concrete situations.

English is still one of the most widely spoken European languages around the world which connects people, businesses, careers and academics.
In this hyperconnected earth, learning English still needs a human connect to properly help you understand dialects, phonemes, sounds and tones.
In my class, you get a slice of my 8 years of ESL teaching in France, Canada, Norway and India, to help you navigate the terrain of L2 acquisition.
My class would be designed around your learning pace along with quick assessments to keep you on track with your goals.

English remains one of the most widely spoken European languages in the world, an essential link between people, businesses, careers and academia.
In this hyper-connected world, learning English still requires human contact to fully understand dialects, phonemes, sounds, and intonations.
In my course, you will benefit from my eight years of experience teaching English as a foreign language in France, Canada, Norway and India, to guide you in acquiring a second language.
My course will be tailored to your learning pace and will include quick assessments to help you progress towards your goals.

Graduated from Sorbonne University and currently a doctoral student at EHESS, I have been teaching and supporting students for several years in the context of academic support and private lessons.

Throughout my experience, I have worked with students with varied profiles, from primary to high school, which allows me to adapt flexibly to the needs and pace of each individual.

I offer personalized support, tailored to each student's level, pace, and goals. My objective is to help students make lasting progress, better understand their lessons, and regain confidence in their schoolwork.

To provide effective support, I begin by precisely identifying the student's difficulties. I then adapt my methods to help them structure their learning, focus on their homework, and better prepare for tests and exams.

Thanks to rigorous and supportive monitoring, students gradually improve their academic results, autonomy and motivation in all general subjects.

I offer English lessons tailored to each student's level, goals, and needs. As an American and native English speaker, I am also bilingual in French, which allows me to easily support French-speaking students and explain any difficulties clearly and accessibly.

The courses can focus on conversation and speaking, reading and listening comprehension, grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, or even school and university English.

I can also teach science in English, including biology and biochemistry, for students who want to develop their scientific skills while improving their English. This approach is particularly well-suited to students in a bilingual program or those wishing to learn scientific vocabulary in English.

For students who want to improve academically, I can help prepare for tests, exams, oral presentations, and written assignments. For more advanced students, I also offer tutoring in academic English, writing, and communication.

I favor a personalized and interactive approach, with activities tailored to each student's level and objectives. My goal is to enable each student to gradually gain confidence and independence, while developing concrete English skills.

Courses can be offered in person, in a hybrid format or entirely remotely, depending on the student's preferences and needs.
