In our classes I’ll help you speak English with confidence. We'll focus on speaking: I specialise in 'déblocage de parole' (unlocking speech), and my lessons also include communication coaching – so that you can be yourself in English and build authentic relationships with people, just as you would in your native language. I work with both professionals and students. I was an English writing instructor at The American University of Paris, and I’ve worked with large French corporations such as Chanel, BNP Paribas, Sanofi... A few examples of my accelerated coaching sessions: - University students: application essays to Oxford and Cambridge master's programs - Professionals: coaching executive-committee members in leading French institutions; preparing clients for management positions abroad – full switch from French to English; Anglo-Saxon style job interviews With each student, we make a personalised plan. I’ll teach you how to learn efficiently outside of class as well, so that you don’t waste time. The right technique at the right time can really accelerate your progress. I’m fluent in French (with some mistakes) and have extensive experience teaching French speakers (including students in Geneva/Genève and Switzerland/la Suisse), but I work with other nationalities too. I’m a language enthusiast and I wholeheartedly support my students. I’ll make you feel comfortable and I hope to make your learning journey fun! The first session is free! Write to me to schedule your free trial session. After the first trial session, the individual online course rate is 60€/h.

1-1 tutoring sessions aimed to help students improve their grades and essay writing skills. Ideal for students needing a bit of extra help in preparing for their GCSE or A-Level exams. I adopt a friendly and encouraging method of tutoring which focuses on what the student needs from me in order to make progress. I can, for instance, look at students' past assignments, tests and exams in order to give feedback, identify weak points and make improvements together in the session. We can also read and analyse texts together, if this is something that might help improve their ability to pick out themes, make comparisons and critically think about the literature. For History classes, we can, for example, focus on planning longer essay questions and / or doing source analysis - picking apart a source and assessing its purpose, content and value. English Literature texts that I know particularly well include Macbeth, Othello, A Midsummer Night's Dream, Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, A Streetcar Named Desire, The Great Gatsby, Atonement, An Inspector Calls, Hard Times, and Keats's Poetry. History subjects I have a particularly strong knowledge in include Revolutionary Russia 1850-1950 and the 17th Century English Civil Wars. However, I also have a broad knowledge of many different historical topics and periods, including the British Empire, colonisation and decolonisation in Africa, Enlightenment Europe and 20th Century America. I will always try my best to integrate the methods of teaching and marking that the student's school prefers.

Latein wird leicht, wenn du weißt, wie du es entschlüsselst. Ich biete dir einen Schlüsselbund. In unserem Unterricht gehe ich individuell auf deine Bedürfnisse ein und gebe dir Tipps, wie du dich schrittweise verbessern kannst. Meine Lehrmethode baut auf Beispielen auf, sodass du schnell das Gelernte anwendest. Schreib mir kurz, wo du dich im Spracherwerb befindest und was du erreichen möchtest. Zu mir: Ich habe während meiner Schulzeit einen Altsprachenwettbewerb gewonnen, anschließend in Köln, Oxford und in den USA Latein und Altgriechisch studiert und meinen Doktor in den alten Sprachen abgeschlossen. Seit 15+ Jahren unterrichte ich Schüler/innen und Studierende in Latein und Altgriechisch von der weiterführenden Schule bis zum Ende ihres Studiums. Ich habe an Gymnasien nachmittags Nachhilfekurse angeboten und an Universitäten als Dozentin in Latein und Altgriechisch gearbeitet. Auf dem Gymnasium habe ich mich in die antiken Sprachen verliebt und anschließend die antiken Schriften und Kulturen von Homer bis in die Spätantike erforscht. Mir hat besonders Gefallen, dass die antike Literatur alle Themen abdeckt – Mythen, Philosophie, Dichtung, Kriege, Politik, Geschichte, Naturwissenschaften... Das Unterrichten hat mir immer Freude bereitet, besonders wenn ich auf die Interessen meiner Schüler/innen eingehen kann. =============================== Latin becomes easy if you know how to decipher it. I offer you a keychain. In our lessons, I address your needs individually and give you tips on how you can improve step by step. My teaching method is based on examples so that you can quickly apply what you have learned. Write to me briefly about where you are in your language learning and what you want to achieve. About me: I won an ancient language competition while I was still in school, then studied Latin and ancient Greek in Cologne, Oxford and the USA and completed my PhD in Classical Studies. For 15+ years I have been teaching Latin and ancient Greek to students from secondary school to the end of their university studies. I have offered ancient language instruction at high schools and universities. In high school I first fell in love with ancient languages ​​and continued by researching ancient writings and cultures from Homer to late antiquity. I particularly like that ancient literature covers all topics - myths, philosophy, poetry, wars, politics, history, science... I have always enjoyed teaching, especially when I can respond to the interests of my students!
