History, Geography, Philosophy, English taught in French

From 122 C$ /h

French teacher graduated from the Agrégation d'Histoire, a former student of the Ecole Normale Supérieure Lettres & Sciences Humaines, gives classes for French or French-speaking students following their secondary education in Zurich.

In business for several years in an international high school in France, but also in higher (King's College, London, Science-Po Paris) I master perfectly the objectives and methods of the baccalaureate and post-baccalaureate issues, in France or internationally.

I offer courses for all student profiles, refresher courses in one or more subjects, advanced studies and the preparation of specific exams (eg admission tests at Sciences-Po). Help with revision, exercises, methodology, white oral, intensive pre-re-entry courses, etc., I adapt to the needs of each student.

Do not hesitate to contact me, whether for a one-off help or for a long-term supervision.

About Me

Associate Professor of History, I taught for 7 years in France, in various high schools in the Paris region and at the Lycée International de Luynes (Aix-en-Provence). I was in charge of the European classes as well as the students of the British International Section (OIB). So I have not only the experience of high school requirements, but also the habit of international students, expatriates, bilinguals, etc., whose needs are sometimes specific, especially with regard to their link with their (s) culture (s) of origin and their orientation after the baccalaureate.
My training in History naturally led me to the teaching of History-Geography, but I also studied Philosophy at the Sorbonne. Besides, having taught in Great Britain and the United States, I have a perfect command of English.
I also have experience teaching art in high school. A graduate of Fémis (one of the two major public film schools in France), I have always pursued activities related to cinema, alongside my teaching and research occupations. In particular, I was a member for several years of the FIDMarseille selection committee, then of the Visions du Réel festival in Nyon. In high school, I was for several years a teacher and coordinator of the History of Arts option.
Based in Zürich, I dedicate myself to teaching in a bilingual German / English establishment, to my personal artistic projects and to my children.

I specialize in teaching children and adults. I make learning creative and fun and completely tailor made to each student's learning style and strengths. I place a strong emphasis on intuitive learning through speaking and reading and I let the grammar and vocabulary knowledge build naturally. I do follow textbooks when required but I also lesson plan around it, using the student's interests to make the class interesting.

Italian is my mother tongue, I love its sound, its grammar structure, the culture it expresses.
I hope to pass on to my students my passion and enthusiasm, thanks to the experience I made at university, where I studied ancient Greek and Latin, then working as a teacher in high school, and gaining the DITALS, which is a diploma to teach Italian to foreigners.
I have experience with students of different levels and age, and I gear each lesson towards my students' goals and preferences.

Hello there and welcome to my profile!

Would you like to practise your speaking skills and become more fluent in English?
Would you like to take an English proficiency exam?
Would you like someone to proof-read important documents or help you with phrasing sentences?

If you said yes to one or more of these questions, you're in the right place!

I am a native English speaker with a clear accent. I grew up in Surrey, England, and lived in UK until I was 22. After receiving my Classics degree from University of Cambridge I moved abroad to continue learning languages and teaching English.

I have a very good level of German (B2), and some understanding of Swiss German, having lived in Switzerland for over four years.

As a teacher and tutor, I am very kind and patient. I listen to my students’ needs and plan creative lessons accordingly.

I look forward to meeting you soon!

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.

Hello! My name is Tori.

Mein Online-Unterricht is an individual, interactive management and auf echte Kommunikation ausgerichtet. Ich unterrichte Englisch, Spanisch und Polnisch für Lernende aller Niveaus und passe jede Lektion an die persönlichen Ziele und die individuelle Lernweise meiner Schülerinnen und Schüler an. Zusätzlich unterrichte ich Chinesisch für Kinder und Anfängerinnen und Anfänger.

In my Unterricht konzentrieren wir uns darauf, Selbstvertrauen aufzubauen, die mündliche Kommunikation zu verbessern, den Wortschatz zu erweitern und die Grammatik auf natürliche und praktische Weise zu verstehen. Ich schaffe eine freundliche und unterstützende Atmosphäre, in der Fehler ein normaler und wichtiger Teil des Lernprozesses sind.

I don't have tools like Zoom and Google Classroom to organize, organize, and manage them effectively. Likewise, ob du deine Konversationsfähigkeiten verbessern, said auf Prüfungen vorbereiten, für Reisen oder die Arbeit lernen oder said einfach im Alltag sicherer in der Sprache fühlen möchtest – ich begleite dich Schritt für Schritt auf deinem Lernweg.

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:)
