Trusted teacher: Teacher for 20 years, holder of a master's degree in English, having lived in an English-speaking country for 5 years, I give, at the learner's choice, general English lessons, reverse pedagogy lessons (see explanations below ) or English conversation lessons. I am indeed keen to offer the learner a course that meets their expectations and needs as best as possible. Because it is not easy to dare to express yourself in a foreign language, I like to work in a caring atmosphere, without judgment, sometimes speaking French when it reassures the learner. Keep in mind that the most important thing is practicing oral comprehension/expression. An hour of conversation lessons allows you to practice the language orally for an hour, with only brief corrections of your errors and a quick reminder of the vocabulary/grammar you are missing. If you wish to go more in-depth into grammar, vocabulary and written comprehension, it is advisable to favor courses lasting 1h30 to 2h to reserve a minimum of 1h for practicing expression and oral comprehension. You then have two options: 1. In a one-hour general English course, allow 15 minutes of grammar, 15 minutes of written comprehension and vocabulary, 15 minutes of oral expression and 15 minutes of listening comprehension. So plan on a two-hour course if you want to have a minimum of 1 hour of oral expression/comprehension (30 minutes of each). 2. If you want to opt for a more economical solution, you can also count on a 1h30 course and follow a reverse teaching course. You will then have one hour of lessons in the presence of the teacher during which you will concentrate solely on practice (conversation and oral comprehension). You will also have around an hour of work at home which will be more focused on theory (grammar, vocabulary, written expression and written comprehension). This is a self-paced course and you have an answer key to help you spot any errors. It is of course appropriate to ask your questions about time in the presence of the teacher, but these are more questions of a practical nature because they are then guided by your individual difficulties. It is the complete opposite of a traditional course where the theory is seen in class (in the form of general explanations by the teacher, which are the same for all learners) and the practice is worked on at home (although often in the form of application exercises, without always having the possibility of benefiting from answers to one's questions because the time devoted to theory allows little to answer the learners' questions): this is why we speak of inverted pedagogy. A reverse pedagogy course requires more preparation time and you will therefore be charged thirty minutes of preparation time for the independent course. Only courses in flipped teaching are accompanied by work to be done at home.

Halyna - Paris, FranceC$40
Trusted teacher: Interested in Russian? Do you already have a little patience? a lot of passion? of curiosity and love for learning? all you need is to find a good teacher? You are in the right place :) I find it remarkable that my first student, starting 14 months after our first meeting, knows how to hold a good conversation in very difficult Russian and on various subjects and does not need to speak French at all to make me understand his ideas! It's a miracle? Or just the result of our work ?! Since then my teaching methodology has been enhanced by the chance to meet students from different countries, literally from all professional backgrounds and ages, with different interests, dreams, hobbies, needs. This year, one of my students was able to catch up with 2 years of learning Russian in 2 months and there he follows courses at the college with other schoolchildren for whom it is the 3rd year of learning the Russian language at school. So, are we breaking new records together? :) I'm not going to teach you these 'robot' phrases, my real intention is only to make you love the language, our culture, our traditions, to make you understand our logic, way of living, of seeing things and much sure to teach you to speak the language! And to achieve this, I carefully prepare my lessons drawing inspiration from different sources such as Russian textbooks as the foreign language (all levels from A1 to C2) grammar books, videos, songs, articles press, exam models, I myself make little 'surprise' cards or I imagine little games to make my students revise and reinforce the knowledge received and of course, why not a little Russian literature. Let's learn some wonderful quotes from the poem of the great poet Marina Тsvetaeva or why not share some wonderful lines from Gogol's creation 'The Dead Souls' and of course, if you are not afraid, let's get lost somewhere on the ponds of the Patriarch of Bulgakov in 'The Master and Margarita' :) I would very much like my students to consider my lessons as a pleasure where they can receive solid knowledge while having fun :) I would be grateful and happy if you could share your time with me , your interests and the way you learn other languages and maybe together we could discover new learning methods that will be effective :) PS I speak French and English so I can provide you with the necessary explanations in these two languages, I have no problem with that :) See you soon!

Stylisme and Fashion Design lesson on Adobe softwares (Geneva)
Nancy
rating star
rating green star
We had highly informative, engaging, and inspiring lessons with Nancy. We started with fashion illustrations and the intricacies of technical drawing, then progressed to deep discussions about brand identity and the creative process. We also explored collection creation, along with the business and marketing aspects of a fashion company. I was pleasantly surprised by Nancy’s depth of highly practical and applicable knowledge, as well as the expertise she possesses in both fashion and marketing. I am looking forward to our future lessons and continuing to learn from her. I highly recommend Nancy as a very talented, friendly, and professional teacher.

ENGLISH all levels, all ages - Examinations and conversations. (Bordeaux)
Marie

rating green star
Marie is a wonderful teacher. When I first met her my son's English level was very low, he wasn't even able to spell the alphabet. But Marie taught him well, and in a short time of about two months, my son was able to speak English, spell words and even make full sentences correctly. I'm much obliged to Marie for everything she has done to help my son learn English. Therefore I recommend Marie for anyone who is looking for a good English teacher.

Trumpet(Technique, Jazz Improvisation) for all levels (Amsterdam)
Oleg
rating star
rating green star
I have been playing trumpet for about 5 years, growing every time. I wanted a new trumpet teacher to help my trumpet technique and skill of improvisation. From the first lesson I really liked Oleg. He has a natural way of teaching, is very knowledgeable, and respectful to your level. He is really a good teacher, and worth signing up with. Recommend 100%. I am still happily going to Oleg, every week!
