Learning Japanese for Traveling and conversation with japanese.

76.65 C$ /h

Are you planning a trip to Japan?
The truth is, most Japanese people don’t speak much English. While they may try to communicate using a few words, knowing even a little Japanese can be incredibly helpful! It will also make them happy and even more welcoming.

In this class, I will focus on practical conversation, based on my experience as a tour guide. We’ll cover essential Japanese phrases that my guests often wanted to learn while traveling.

With this knowledge, you’ll be able to enjoy conversations with locals, creating unforgettable memories on your trip to Japan.

Hello, I offer academic support in all subjects from primary to secondary school, as well as English and Spanish lessons.

A doctoral student in geography at the Sorbonne, I am familiar with the educational and academic system. I would like to use my experience through personalized monitoring of a student. In particular, I am able to provide assistance in methods of learning and assimilation of knowledge.
I myself benefited from homework help during my schooling, my father is a university professor. I have already provided homework help to primary and middle school students, and I have taught at university.
It seems important to me to be able to put oneself in the student's place in order to understand what they do not understand and to adapt the help to measure.

Through my research work abroad, I acquired a good command of English and Spanish. I therefore also offer private English lessons.

I am also available punctually, or regularly in the evening, to babysit. I already have experience in babysitting.

I am a qualified and experienced mathematics tutor. Graduated from the Free University of Brussels in 2011, I started my career by teaching remedial courses in different schools in Brussels. I then specialized in individual academic support by following educational training at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. I have been giving private mathematics lessons daily for over ten years.

The students who follow my private lessons benefit from personalized support. The first session is devoted to an in-depth assessment of the student's mathematical knowledge. The objective is to detect its weak points and understand their origin in order to adapt my courses to its needs. I develop a tailor-made remediation program for each of my students aimed at filling each of their gaps. Over the course of the sessions, the student builds a solid foundation for learning and regains self-confidence. At the same time, I help him acquire a work methodology that allows him to gradually become autonomous in his studies.

I have a thorough knowledge of the mathematics curriculum for middle and high school (from 6th to 12th grade). I am also qualified to support students in preparing for international exams such as the SAT, the OMPT, and the International Baccalaureate (IB) in all its variations: Analysis and Approaches (AA SL/HL) and Applications and Interpretation (AI SL/HL).

Throughout my years of training, I studied and developed numerous techniques that facilitate learning mathematics. The strength of my teaching approach lies in my ability to explain, in simple terms, anything a student finds complicated. I am passionate about this profession because it offers me the opportunity to guide struggling students toward success. It is a true pleasure to see them progress and rediscover their connection with the fascinating world of mathematics.

I offer private tutoring in Paris (at the student's home) or remotely (online). My online lessons take place on an interactive whiteboard. This whiteboard is specifically designed to facilitate student/teacher interaction online. Thanks to this teaching tool, my online lessons are just as effective as in-person lessons. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to participate.

This class is about learning Tunisian Arabic to easily interact with Tunisians. Tunisian Arabic is not the first dialect you hear about when you start to learn Arabic, but it is indeed one of the most fascinating and useful, especially if you are working in Tunisia, your partner is Tunisian or you are into North African social studies.
It occurred to you to be told that Tunisian Arabic has no grammatical or syntactic rules because it's not real Arabic? Well, that's not true! I can reveal you some tips to speak and sound Tunisian even if you don't know anything about Arabic. We will talk, play, watch videos from Tunisian tv programs and learn about language and culture.

I also do transcriptions and translations of documents and videos into French and Italian for academic researchers, journalists, and entrepreneurs.

The objective is that: the learner masters the English language (🎧listening-comprehension,🎤 conversation, 📚 reading, grammar-pronunciation, writing...). It helps him to have language skills like native speakers. 🥇

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...

We are happy to help both adults and pupils/students. If you want to learn the English language (reading, grammar, oral conversation, written production,...) or you have homework to do, or competitions/tests to take, 🏆 contact us :)

Hello my name is Audrey!
I'm a student in international relations and Chinese foreign languages at INALCO. Because of my studies and having traveled a lot, I know how difficult it can be to learn a foreign language and how difficult it can be to overcome certain levels and to be confident in a language that is not our mother tongue.
That's why I offer you my help! I am a French native from Poitou Charente. I traveled all around the world when i was
a teenager and a young adult especially in Asia. Now i'm finishing my studies in Paris. For several years, I have been teaching English to children and adults of all levels. I have accompanied Koreans, Iranians, French etc.
My goal is that you enjoy learning English and reach your goals. The course will be totally personalized and adapted to your needs and interests. I will also introduce you to the culture during our lessons (current events, highlights of the year, etc.) because in order to learn a language you need to understand the culture of the country.
My classes will focus on the five skills: speaking, writing, listening, reading and grammar. Of course, if you wish to work on only one aspect in particular, this will be possible.
We can use the material you have or we can also work with the resources I have.
At your request and according to your needs I can give you homework to continue your efforts outside of our classes.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. I will be happy to discuss with you your expectations, your goals and my work method.

I look forward to helping you in your quest to master the English language.

Student in M1 Public Law at the University of Paris-II, I give courses in law and methodology for undergraduate students.

The courses are mainly intended for law degree students but are open to all. Depending on the needs indicated before the session, I can adapt to all requests and create tailor-made courses in methodology, constitutional law, administrative law, family law, contract law, tort law and other degree subjects.

The goal is to help you master points of law that may have remained obscure and to better explain the course. To this end, I also offer help in carrying out tutorials. I can also prepare a detailed correction of an assignment that would have been sent to me in advance. Having completed part of my law studies abroad, I can also provide help with assignments to be submitted in English and more generally in subjects taught in English.

Classes can be done alone or in groups depending on needs.

Oral and written Spanish courses to complement or constitute a complete training program.

As a teacher with a "dual hat", I trained in music (piano, which I also offer lessons in) and languages.

Having degrees in English, Spanish, Catalan, German and French, I work on the mechanisms of language construction, where transmission seems to me an essential pillar.

I travel to Paris East, Montreuil, Saint Mandé, Vincennes and Bagnolet.
