I am a doctorate student with a master degree in English literature, including a specialization in new American studies from the university of Lausanne. I am experienced in helping with homework (all levels and subjects) and language class (French and English) from beginners to advanced. I offer personalized classes adapted to your needs in order to help you gain confidence, knowledge and to reach your different goals.

My studies allowed me to be in constant contact with non francophone people. I learned to adapt to each person's level and I am familiar with the difficulties that the French language presents for foreigners. In return, my own studies in English familiarized me with the difficulties of the English language.

I also offer help with the the redaction of any kind of written work (thesis, seminars, cv, letters) and to improve your oral skills (conversation to prepare oral exams, interviews, or upgrading).

English class for students.

I have taught English to middle school students (age 12-15). I explain things in easy and simple terms, step by step. When students do not understand, I approach from different perspectives until they understand. I emphasize students' strengths rather than pointing out their weaknesses, so that they can build their confidence. To approach their weakness, I give constructive advice on what they can work on to get better. I not only give general advice, but I also analyze students and give personalized advice. I am flexible with my teaching style. I can teach grammar based on a textbook, I can help practice speaking through daily based conversational practices, or any form of teaching suggested.

Do you understand English but hesitate when it’s time to speak? Do you find yourself translating every sentence in your head or worrying about making mistakes?

My personalised English lessons help you build the skills and confidence to communicate more naturally—in everyday life, at work, and in social situations.

We work on what matters to you:

Speaking confidently and keeping conversations flowing
Understanding spoken English and expanding your vocabulary
Improving pronunciation, grammar, and sentence structure
Communicating at work, in interviews, or during presentations
Feeling more comfortable using English when travelling or living abroad

Each lesson is adapted to your level, interests, and goals. Through meaningful conversations, practical activities, and clear feedback, you’ll practise using English in situations you actually encounter.

As an English teacher and coach who has lived in London, Paris, Geneva, and Zurich, I understand how vulnerable communicating in another language can feel. My approach is warm, encouraging, and practical, with space to ask questions, make mistakes, and progress at your own pace.

You don’t need perfect English to have something worth saying. Let’s help you say it with confidence.

Book a lesson and tell me what you’d like English to make possible for you.
