I teach students, as well as adults who want to improve their English for professional reasons.
My experience over the past 10 years has allowed me to develop a simple and effective method that adapts to the needs of the student, taking into account their interests. This way, the student becomes seriously involved and progresses quickly.
My native ear allows me to have a real impact on the pronunciation and accent of the student, without ever neglecting the importance of learning to write. In addition, my experience as a translator allows me to teach the different nuances of the language in the most efficient way possible.

Speaking English is an important skill for the modern working world. You can learn in a variety of ways whether by conversational practice, grammatical classes, or if you need, exam preparation. I can tailor the class to your language learning needs and we can discuss what you require from our classes. Do not hesitate to get in touch!

At this time, almost the end of the year, we are slowly approaching the CFC exam period.

This is why I would like to share my help in preparing you for these exams that you will have at the end of the year.

So I help with oral exams in French, German and English.

Having myself graduated in 2022, I am perfectly able to support you on this final stretch.

Looking to pick up a new language? Or maybe you've watched The Crown and want to speak like the Queen of England? Look no further! As a native speaker of English - and fluent speaker of Spanish and French - I can put myself in your shoes and help you chat, read and sound like a Brit, only using the best and most natural sounding language. What’s more, I have a wealth of experience teaching English in France and Argentina, can accommodate all levels of English and will tailor my lessons based on your specific needs and interests. The best part: as a Specialised Translation Masters student at UniGe, I’m always around Uni-Mail and Champel, meaning I can come to you, we can meet in the middle or we can hop on a Zoom call! The choice is yours. Now that you’ve found your teacher, the only question is...when would you like to get started?

Send me a message with any questions or queries and I’ll get back to you ASAP!

Best wishes,

Nicolas

My name is Nicolas, and I'm an English teacher with eight years of teaching experience. I've spoken English since I was a teenager and have continued to practice it through my many travels. My level was further improved during an extended stay in Canada. In 2018, I passed the TEFL Cambridge exam, the English as a Foreign Language Teaching Certificate.

Having also gone through the process of learning to speak this language, I am well aware of the different stages my students go through. This helps considerably.

My courses are custom-built to achieve personal goals and are adapted to the specific needs of each individual.

Practice is prioritized throughout the learning process to foster independence as quickly as possible. Basic grammar and vocabulary concepts are also covered, depending on the student's level.

This course is aimed at:
- Beginners (basics, conversation, travel);
- Intermediate/advanced (improvement, exam preparation: TOEFL, IELTS, TOEIC);
- Professionals (business English, interview preparation).

Feel free to contact me for more information.

With pleasure :)

Initially, I listen to the student to understand their current level with the language, their relationship to it. To identify their difficulties, strengths and weaknesses. And how they envision and view language as a tool.
Then I evaluate it on several aspects: oral, written, and oral comprehension.
Then I determine a program based on the difficulties and shortcomings identified.
I explain to him what I have noticed and what I propose we work on, and if he or she agrees.

Courses designed for primary and middle school students ✨

Dina

I have been an English teacher for three years, with experience teaching children and adults, both privately and in language schools. I have completed specialized training in teaching beginners, which allows me to tailor my lessons to each student.

I am patient and attentive, and I create a pleasant and motivating learning environment. My goal is for each student to progress with confidence, speaking and understanding English clearly and practically.

My courses are designed for beginners and intermediate levels (A1-B1), for both children and adults. I emphasize a practical and communicative approach, with exercises and activities based on real-life situations. Each session is structured yet flexible, adapted to your pace and goals, so you can use English in everyday life right from the start.

I also emphasize living English, with different accents, common expressions and a bit of slang, so that you understand and speak real and natural English, and discover British and American culture.

Hello,
I offer business English lessons for those who are interested. First, I consider my clients' needs. I follow a formal curriculum: the lessons are based on listening comprehension, reading, and conversation. The lessons are enhanced with visuals, videos, presentations, texts, reports, and more.

Julia

Hi! I’m a native English speaker and CELTA-qualified teacher, and I love helping people feel more comfortable and confident speaking English.

Before moving back to Geneva, I worked with NGOs in Greece supporting refugees and asylum seekers. As part of my work, I taught English to people from many different backgrounds and levels, as well as managing community programmes and volunteers. I really enjoyed the teaching side of my work — especially getting to know people individually and seeing their confidence grow.

That's why I prefer one-to-one lessons. I want our lessons to feel less like a traditional classroom and more like a relaxed conversation where you can practise, ask questions and learn at your own pace.

We can focus on whatever is most useful for you. Maybe you understand English quite well but find it difficult to speak. Maybe you need English for work, want to prepare for an interview, or simply want to feel more confident having conversations with English speakers. Or perhaps you just want someone to practise with regularly.

I'm friendly, patient and happy to adapt the lessons to you. Making mistakes is completely fine — that's how you learn! If you have a particular goal in mind, feel free to get in touch and tell me a little about what you'd like to improve.

Rubén

Why does learning a foreign language seem so difficult?

Often, it's not a question of talent, but of method. With concrete support tailored to your goals, speaking with ease and confidence becomes possible, and faster than you think.

My name is Rubén and I have two years of experience in private tutoring, during which I helped each student achieve specific goals. I have taught English to a child and helped a German student pass his Spanish exams, in addition to numerous other tutoring activities in Spain.

I have studied and worked in all the languages I speak and teach: Spanish, my native language, English at C1 level, German at B2 level and French at B2 level. I therefore know from the inside the difficulties one encounters when learning a language, and the tips for overcoming them.

I was able to put my method to the test both in exams and in the professional world, combining daily oral practice with preparation for official certifications.

Alizée

Want to feel more confident speaking English or French? Looking for encouraging, engaging language support for your child? Let’s make learning something to look forward to!

I’m Alizée, a Belgian and South African native speaker of both English and French. With a master’s degree from SOAS, University of London, and a bachelor’s degree from Leiden University, I bring an international outlook and a love of languages to our lessons.

Together, we can work on:
• Conversation, pronunciation and confidence;
• Grammar and vocabulary that you can actually use;
• Reading, writing and listening skills;
• Schoolwork, homework and revision;
• Everyday French for life in a French-speaking environment;
• Practical English for travel, study and work.

For children, I use games, stories, pictures and small challenges to make learning engaging, alongside focused support with schoolwork.

For adults, lessons centre on your interests and real situations: chatting while travelling, understanding your favourite series, preparing a presentation or simply finding your words more easily.

Each lesson is tailored to your level, pace and goals, with a balance of conversation, clear explanations and focused practice. There’s always room for questions, mistakes and a little laughter along the way!

One-off and regular lessons are available online or in person, depending on location and availability.

Send me a message with your preferred language, current level and goals, and we can plan your first lesson together!
