Maths and English UK Curriculum with specialised support for overcoming barriers to learning

From 88 C$ /h

Hello, I’m Matt, I have 22 years’ experience teaching in a range of educational settings in the UK, including roles as Deputy Head Teacher in both mainstream and special schools. I am also an experienced Special Needs Coordinator. I have a background in creative learning approaches, as well as proven experience working with pupils with ASD, ADHD, dyslexia and SEMH, as well as speech and language difficulties. I would like to offer my services in helping your child reach their full potential. I love music (both listening and making!) and share a passion for animals and nature with my six year old son. I bring my passions into my teaching which I find kids respond really well to. Thank you all. Let me know if I can help.

About Me

Hi, I'm Matt, I have recently arrived in Annecy from the UK with my wife, my six year old son and our very old cat! I am passionate about teaching and I like to make my lessons as personal and creative as possible. I love to see children excited by their learning. I aim to use all of my 22 years' experience to build relationships quickly. I find the use of humour, patience and care the most effective means of doing this. I see it as critical that children be active participants and have some autonomy in their own learning. I understand that every child has their own starting point and their own way of engaging in any learning task. I find ways of breaking down tasks into small and manageable steps, using carefully chosen language, visuals and manipulatives. This allows learners to achieve success quickly, building their confidence, before I look to challenge them.

I look to bring the children's interests, as well as my own into my lessons. My passions include making music on my computer and listening to music. I'm always on the search for something new. I share a love of animals with my son and we are always finding a new way of feeding our passion, whether it be a new toy or a new book. I love watching football (my favourite teams are Arsenal and Southend United - my home town team). Part of my family are from the Highlands of Scotland and I love to spend time exploring the hills and beaches up there. I hope to fall in love with Annecy in the same way.

I have been an English teacher since 2012 and a French teacher since 2015. In addition, I also give English-French lessons at home and online, as well as Spanish for foreigners who want to improve their Spanish. These working groups are made up of both children and adults, from beginner to experienced. I like this experience enormously, having for fundamental value the contact with people and the sharing of knowledge and culture.

I adapt to the skills and demands of my students. I seek to advance each one with methodology and efficiency. I am a working framework (oral expression, reading, conjugation, grammar, oral comprehension, vocabulary, ...) but if the student wishes to progress in a specific field (English literature, written comprehension ...) I modify my course to suit him.

I have a very practical and fun methodology.

In which I favor the mastery of the language at the beginning before the accumulation of knowledge. Once there, the rest of the areas of the language start to develop and it really works.

I applied it with me in English and I learned in 2 months, then I learned Italian in 1 month

I give English and English civilization lessons for French learners. Adults and schools. Academic support from sixth to final year. + commercial English BTS, Bachelor, Masters, all series.
I also give support lessons in French for schoolchildren from sixth to second year inclusive. And French and French conversation courses for foreign students and adults wishing to improve their skills in this language.
Above all, when it comes to my classes, particularly conversation classes in English and French, I seek to make them as lively as possible. I favor conversation, exchange in the chosen language. We study grammar and vocabulary, subsequently, on what we have said, practiced, read or commented on. I give exercises after each lesson. But these exercises are always linked to a context. I like to approach things in a lively way. It's the best way to learn and assimilate.

Hello,
I offer my services for English lessons. Having lived abroad for several years, this language has no more secrets for me, finally someone else of course. I propose to test your level and then adapt my lessons according to it. We can go through the basics of presentation, preferences, irregular verbs or work on spelling but also pronunciation and listening.
See you soon I hope 😊

Hello! I’m Trina, a native English teacher from England, now living in France.

I help adults and teenagers (14+) build confidence in English for real-life situations. Whether you’re preparing for a job interview, improving your Business English, travelling, or simply wanting to speak more naturally, I’ll create lessons that match your goals.

I’m currently completing my CELTA qualification and I design structured lessons based on the CEFR (A1–C2) framework, helping students develop speaking, listening, reading, writing, grammar, pronunciation and vocabulary together.

Before becoming an English teacher, I worked in international business development and recruitment, so I understand the English needed for meetings, presentations, interviews and professional communication. I also previously worked as a veterinary nurse, giving me experience communicating with people from many different backgrounds.

My lessons are friendly, supportive and practical. I believe students learn best when they feel relaxed, make mistakes confidently, and practise English through meaningful conversations.

Outside teaching, I enjoy hiking in the French Alps, travelling, photography and spending time with animals.

I look forward to helping you achieve your English goals!

6 years teaching experience. Teaching French and multilingual students both online in person and in the military. CELTA qualified

Unlock your potential in English with me! Together, we'll build your confidence and tailor lessons to your goals. Let's make learning enjoyable and meaningful, so you can thrive in real-life situations. I can't wait to get started!

I offer English and French lessons, as well as homework help, for primary and secondary school students. I adapt to each student's level and needs to help them progress without pressure.
In French, I can work on reading, writing, spelling, grammar, text comprehension, and essay writing. In English, I can help improve vocabulary, grammar, reading and listening comprehension, and expression.
For homework help, we review the lessons and exercises together, and then I take the time to explain any concepts that are causing difficulty. I can also help prepare for tests and implement simple and effective revision methods.
