Hello,
I am currently studying biology at the University of Zurich. I speak english and french as mother tongues and am also fluent in german and italian. I give tutoring services in maths & science, french and english but can also tailor to more specific needs. As I have previously studied in a french international school and then passed my Maturité in a swiss "collège", I have a good understanding of these two academic systems and of their expectations. I have 4 years of experience behind me and can give classes for students at different levels, from primary school to high school. Don't hesitate to contact me for more information. I would love to help you in any possible way!

Hello

My name is Claire, and academic support has been at the heart of my work for several years. I hold a Master’s degree (Master 2) in Educational Sciences and have specialized in helping students with a variety of learning profiles, whether they are experiencing a temporary block or have ADHD, are gifted (HPI), or have learning difficulties such as dyslexia or other “dys” disorders.

Why This Specialization?

Some students learn intuitively—their curiosity and their unique way of thinking make every session stimulating. Through my experience, I’ve worked with many students who, despite strong abilities, face challenges within the traditional school system.

Several factors can explain these obstacles:

• Around 30% of students have an “atypical” profile (ADHD, gifted, dys disorders...). These students each have their own way of understanding new concepts. They often need hands-on experiences, repetition, reformulation, or visual aids to make sense of information.

• A lack of self-confidence: No student is “non-academic.” However, repeated difficulties can lead to a loss of motivation and a feeling of failure. For example, a child struggling with reading might dread reading aloud in class for fear of stumbling over words in front of classmates. This can lead to avoidance and reinforce the difficulty.

• Understanding how we learn is key: Learning to understand oneself and identify what works is an essential step—but not always easy without guidance. A student might struggle with multitasking. Without recognizing this challenge, it’s difficult to develop strategies to complete exercises or assessments under good conditions.

Why Private Tutoring?

I’m often asked: why not teach in a classroom?

I enjoy working with a variety of ages and levels. I truly see the benefits of one-on-one tutoring, where I can quickly identify what’s not working and adapt right away. Every student helps me grow in my methods and knowledge—it’s a truly enriching exchange.

As a mother myself, I also understand how hard it can be for parents to manage their child’s schooling. Being a parent is not the same as being a teacher. The reality of family dynamics often doesn’t allow for that role. And yet, students who struggle in school often need support with specific methods—outside the classroom setting.

What kind of support do I offer?

1. Targeted support (primary & middle school): to overcome a specific difficulty (reading, spelling, math, English, etc.).

2. Ongoing academic support: weekly sessions throughout the year to strengthen skills and organization.

3. Special preparation: help with oral presentations, public speaking, and customized evaluations.

4. Early childhood learning: introduction to reading, sounds, and numbers.

5. Reading acquisition: step-by-step support for fluent reading and solid comprehension.

Methods and Tools

1. Creation of personalized teaching materials

I don’t rely only on textbooks or ready-made resources. I create customized lesson materials, broken down into clear steps and perfectly suited to each student. The goal is for the student to leave each session with a clear, structured handout to help with memorization and review. Since knowledge is interconnected, I often combine subjects based on yearly goals.

2. Tailored evaluations and progress tracking

• I use evolving assessments to track progress and adjust learning methods.

• Exercises progress in difficulty to build long-term understanding and confidence.

3. Structured sessions and work organization

I often recommend two sessions per week. This allows a concept to be introduced, absorbed, and reused while maintaining a steady rhythm.

Example of a French lesson:

• Session 1: 30 min on a key concept, 15 min of work planning, 15 min of practice exercises.

• Session 2: 20 min review, 40 min of reading and text comprehension.

This approach avoids cognitive overload and supports progressive, effective learning.

4. Building independence

Beyond knowledge, I teach students how to be more organized:

• How to structure their notes to ease revision.

• How to plan study time to avoid last-minute cramming.

• How to manage time and stress during tests and supervised work.

We also work on strategies to avoid careless mistakes, quickly understand instructions, and manage time effectively during exams.

Pricing and Follow-up

Over the years, I’ve learned how important it is—especially for students with ADHD—to leave each lesson with a written, organized summary. These students often struggle to synthesize what was covered in class or extract the essentials.

A two-part pricing structure

Each session includes two essential components:

1. The lesson with the student—a time for active learning and exchange.

2. Preparation beforehand, which is crucial to tailor the session to the student’s unique needs.

What does this provide?

• Truly personalized follow-up

• Flexible teaching: lesson content and duration adjust to progress and challenges.

• In-depth work: crafting tailored resources takes time but is key to an effective session.

Let’s be honest: I’m not Mary Poppins :) Learning takes time, patience, and effort. I don’t have magic powers—but I do have a clear goal: to help each student become more independent in their learning, in a structured and supportive environment that empowers them to overcome their difficulties.

For me, the best way to learn French is first through conversation. I believe that speaking about simple topics, personal interests, and subjects that truly motivate the student is essential. When learners talk about what they are passionate about, they feel more confident and engaged, and progress comes more naturally.
In a second step, I like to create personalized modules and materials adapted to each student. When I identify areas for improvement, I design specific exercises and activities to help them grow. However, I always keep the student’s needs and interests at the center of the learning process. My goal is to make learning French enjoyable, motivating, and meaningful.

German learning means to be able to enter the multifaceted German world. No matter your current level or your past struggles with German, I am here to guide you to communicate in German with confidence from day one. My lessons are completely stress-free and entirely customized to your unique learning style, personality traits and goals.

Hi there! My name is Jana and I am excited to be your tutor! I teach English, Business English, French and Italian but my professional background is in renewable energy, sustainability and public policy. I always saw languages as a tool to open new opportunities and will be happy to guide you on your journey to fluency. Over the years, I have worked as a mentor and educator, helping students and young professionals develop their confidence, communication skills and academic or professional goals. I particularly enjoy helping people become more comfortable speaking and expressing themselves in a foreign language. As a teacher, I prefer a conversational and personalised approach. Rather than relying on textbooks, I focus on real-life communication and creating a relaxed environment where students feel comfortable practicing and making progress. If that's something that resonates with you, I will be happy to see you in my class. I can also help with exam prep for IELTS, CAE, CPE, GMAT and GRE:)

Personalised Italian lessons for complete beginners who want to build a strong foundation and start communicating with confidence.

Lessons focus on:

Essential vocabulary and everyday expressions
Basic grammar and sentence structure
Pronunciation and listening
Speaking and real-life communication
Italian for travel, work, university, or everyday life
Interactive activities and technology-based learning
Practical tasks that encourage active participation and confidence

Speaking, interaction, and technology are key elements of the lessons. You will actively use Italian throughout the class through interactive exercises, digital resources, and practical communication activities rather than simply studying rules and memorising vocabulary.

Lessons are structured, interactive, and adapted to your pace, needs, and learning goals. No previous knowledge of Italian is required.
