French - course from a native speaker adapted to every levels (beginner to advanced)

This course is designed to help you make the best possible progress in French by adapting to your individual level. This course is versatile: it can be a grammar/syntax and French language course, or a literary analysis of French texts.

In order to overcome each student's difficulties, my priority will always be to identify the student's expectations through good communication.

During this course, depending on the student's wishes and needs, we can work on various grammar points, but also on knowledge of various kinds that will enable the student to excel in this language.

About Me

Third-year student at Sciences Po Paris, on exchange at UBC, who graduated in 2021 with a French general baccalaureate général with "Felicitations du jury" (highest honors).

In high school, I took history, geography, geopolitics and political science (HGGSP).

I also took part in the optional courses of history-geography in English and expert mathematics.

At Sciences Po, I have already studied History, Economics, Law, Sociology and Political Science, as well as other courses such as "Intellectuals in their time" and "Key issues of the European Union".

My recent high school experience keeps me abreast of recent reforms. In addition, two internships with the French Ministry of Education (one in junior high and one in high school) have enabled me to understand the recurring difficulties encountered by students.

Education

--> Sciences Po Paris - Dijon Campus (Central and Eastern Europe): cum laude (top 10%). Politics and Government" major, focusing on law, comparative politics and international relations.

--> UBC: exchange year. Mainly political science courses.

Experience / Qualifications

--> 2-month internship in a high school (Dijon):
During this "civic course", I worked in pairs with another Sciences Po student to carry out a project aimed at high school classes in the general and technological streams. We gave talks on the European Union, its creation, enlargement and deepening, as well as on European institutions. We also organized courses and simulations on the European process, including the vote on a European directive and regulation. We also gave classes on EU law as part of the "Droit et grands enjeux du monde contemporain" (DGEMC) course, and took part in the "Enseignement moral et civique" (EMC) course on the workings of the French Fifth Republic, notably by setting up a simulation of a draft law. We felt that these missions were essential, particularly given the current state of affairs surrounding the law in France, a topic that is rarely addressed in high school. We therefore sought to make the concepts we covered about the workings of the Fifth Republic and the European Union more concrete and less superficial.

--> 3-month internship in a secondary school (Dijon):
During this internship, the missions I was given were both protean and enriching. First of all, I was able to give tutoring and homework help, individually or in small groups, to students needing personalized attention. I was also able to attend classes given by different teachers in a variety of subjects. In addition, one of my tasks was to work in pairs to create a video showing a virtual tour of the school and its various facilities. My final assignment was to support a literature teacher in the UPE2A (Unité pédagogique pour élèves allophones arrivants) program. This unit aims to teach the French language to students who have recently arrived in France and are not fluent in it. In this way, I was able to help teach French to around twenty students of varying levels, with the aim of helping them pass the DELF (diplôme d'enseignement de la langue française) at the end of the year, or even the Brevet des collèges.
Having obtained the General Baccalaureate with the congratulations of the jury, while preparing for the IEP competition, I acquired the logic and method required by the history-geography and HGGSP courses at the high school, as well as the knowledge in varied subjects, mainly in human and social sciences (History, Political Science, Law, Economy, Sociology, Humanities, etc.) I had the opportunity to complete an internship in a middle school and another in a high school which allowed me to understand the recurring problems among students as well as the diversity of difficulties sometimes encountered by them. In order to best overcome everyone's difficulties, my priority will always be to identify the student's expectations through good communication. During this course, according to the wishes and needs of the student, we will be able to work on different points of methodology (dissertation, document analysis, etc.), but also on knowledge of varied natures allowing us to excel in these subjects.
This course allows you to progress as best as possible in French by adapting to each person's level. This course is versatile: it can be grammar/syntax and learning French as well as a course in literary analysis of French texts. In order to best overcome everyone's difficulties, my priority will always be to identify the student's expectations through good communication. During this course, according to the wishes and needs of the student, we will be able to work on different points of grammar, but also on knowledge of varied natures allowing us to excel in this language. :)

Learn French in an interactive and efficient way!
Hello! I am French, born in Burgundy and I grew up between Burgundy and Paris. Experienced teacher, I gave many courses at the Alliance Française, embassies, companies, universities and private lessons. I propose you energetic courses and corresponding to your needs. Through theater training, I can help you develop your skills in this language in a very interactive way. In private lessons or via a webcam, you will be surprised at your progress! I can give you general or specialized French courses (professional, exam preparation ...) but still with a very specific purpose (visit to France, contact with a school ...). Do not hesitate to contact me.

Kevin
Polyglot specialist with 9 years of experience. German in speed mode. Level A1 to C2. No school teaching.
I offer you a German course that is not like the others. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches: If you travel back and forth by train every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options: 1) Memorise the timetable. 2) Realise that the train comes every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m. In school pedagogy, in textbooks and in normal lessons, the first approach is used - in the course I am offering you, it is the second approach because it is more economical and faster. My offer is aimed at both pupils and adults who want to learn the German language without time-consuming detours through the madness of fruitless school methods. Learning is easy, but unlearning things that have become bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, with my customised lessons you will greatly accelerate the learning process while having a positive attitude. I offer German lessons for individuals or groups (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive science and historical linguistics in particular. My modular programme can be adapted on a case-by-case basis. The converging point of these modules is your independence in spontaneous conversations in real life. What will not be covered in the course: learning lists of verbs; learning lists of nouns with articles; learning words with their translations; flashcards; doing school exercises; following the syllabus of a booklet; imposing the English grammar on the German language. What is particularly important to me: to motivate my student and to give him a learning rhythm; to encourage his creativity; to befriend him with the language; the letters and their sounds; to strengthen the memory by training the phonological loop; to teach blueprints instead of memorising sentences; to explain how the language works in order to make my student independent as quickly as possible; to eliminate common preconceptions, such as that 'der' would mean masculine and 'die' feminine, that the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, that verbs would be irregular, that declension would be random and therefore would have to be learnt with each verb...; to put practice at the centre and only deal with grammar where necessary. A first lesson will give you a sound idea of my pedagogy.

Learn French with a French-speaking teacher, 7 days a week
Hello to all of you! I welcome you to my profile. You would like to learn French and I would also like to teach you French. Fortunately, French is my native language. I live in Brussels where I have taught many French courses to French speakers and also to non-French speakers in the framework of FLE (French as a Foreign Language), mostly face-to-face and also some distance learning. I want to expand the use of distance learning. Hence my presence on this site. My greatest wish is to help you make as much progress as possible in French. To this end, I use a judicious combination of oral and written exchanges. I use these conversations to introduce grammatical concepts and expand your vocabulary. All this in a fun and friendly atmosphere! You will have to express yourself a lot in French, because my level of Dutch is average. In fact, I speak it at a "normal" pace, but with a more limited vocabulary and expressions than yours. This may seem a little frustrating at first, but it is a real benefit to you as it forces you to express yourself in French as much as possible! It's all in your favor! Please contact me as soon as possible so that we can start a fruitful cooperation.
