Alternative French Lesson: have fun learning! - online or live

Do you think you are bad at language or you still have unpleasant memories of your first French lessons?

What if I told you that languages ​​are for everyone! With me? no more fear of failing or being ridiculous, no more boring lessons spent studying vocabulary lists or the details of French grammar.

Why? because I am convinced that motivation and pleasure of learning are the key elements in your learning process. So no risk to have a boring class!

Tell me what you are passionate about and what you feel like doing. My students are my partners and it is together that we create the course that suits you!

No syllabus therefore, nor that "stick to the plan" approach. The lessons are ajustable and flexible and will evolve according to your needs and desires.

Conversation remains the major asset because it will help you develop oral expression and comprehension, and from there will do multipule activities : grammar exercises, study of a song, writing essay, role-playing, reading / discussion around an article, word games, etc.

The goal is really to identify what works for you and to maximize on that to help you progress in a stimulating and enjoyable way.

I spent more than 20 years abroad (France, Germany, Kenya, Philippines ...) and believe me! this is how I learned foreign languages. I have also had the opportunity to test the effectiveness of this method over and over again with my students from all over the world!

Give a try and decide by yourself if it works for you too!

About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Hello there and warm welcome to you!


Do you find French difficult?
Do you think you are bad at language?
Do you need to practice without being judged?
You don't get the spelling, the grammar, or the pronunciation?

But what if I told you that everyone can learn a language! We just need to find the method that suits you best.
Let me introduce you to my teaching world.

Who I am
Initially I finished my baccalaureate in Literature (2001) but since then life brought me a bit everywhere between highs and lows. I volunteered for various populations (4 years), and graduated in BSSW (2019) in Quezon City.

Ya, I am Swiss, but I called myself a wanderer who eventually fell in love with the Philippines. Now I am on my way to master Tagalog. It's not easy, but it's worth it. Apart from being a French teacher, I am also an artist: I paint, sculpt, craft, play music, sing and dance mostly for the joy of creating beauty.

Also, I love trying new things, exploring, connecting with people and ideas.


Me as a teacher
I am a chilled and easy-going teacher, a creative one too, who has been teaching French online for more than 3 years (130 students/+20 nationalities).

I make sure you enjoy every bite of the time spent with me. And yet I help you improve and achieve your goals through engaging activities, interesting conversations and suitable exercises. I don't care if you do little mistakes, as long as you enjoy learning and keep learning! Therefore, I focus on nourishing your motivation and self-confidence.

Have no worries, I won't belittle you or make you feel like you are back to school... This class is yours, and we are partners in this adventure!

My lessons and teaching style
Because I believe all students are unique and have specific needs, goals and learnings strategies, my teaching style stands somewhere between an intuitive approach and a student-centered method.

With me, you will learn a practical and useful French updated with common expressions, useful grammar tips, etc. You will acquire speaking and understanding skills (and more...) naturally and without forcing.

Conversation is at the core of every lesson, and around it, we add various activities and exercise to help you. We do grammar when you need or want it.

Together we create the class that suits you best.
No boring or stressful tasks. I will make sure to keep you engaged and motivated.


My philosophy:
No one learns well under stress, and I know this from experience. So, I do everything to offer you a safe environment, without pressure or boredom. Motivation is a key element, and therefore I keep you engaged. You shall learn naturally and without forcing.

Eager to know more? Contact me, it's free and I don't bite!

Kevin
Non-academic Latin lessons. Multilingual teacher with 9 years of experience. Pronunciation, historical linguistics, conceptual semantics.
Contrary to popular belief, learning Latin is not like learning the phone book by heart. I offer you Latin lessons that are unlike any other. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches: If you take the train back and forth every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options: 1) Learn the schedules by heart. 2) Note that the train arrives every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m. In school pedagogy, in study notebooks and in ordinary courses, it is the first approach which is adopted - in the courses that I offer you, it is the second because it is more economical and faster. My offer is aimed at both students and adults who want to learn the Latin language or deepen their knowledge without time-consuming detours through the insanities of school methods which do not produce results. Learning is easy but unlearning what has become a bad habit is extremely difficult. All the more important it is to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. With my tailor-made teaching you will accelerate your learning in a positive state of mind. I offer individual or group Latin lessons (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive sciences and in particular historical linguistics. What will not be the subject of the course: learn lists of verbs; learn lists of nouns with their gender; learn words with their translations; memory card game; doing school exercises; follow the program in a notebook; impose French grammar on the Latin language. What matters to me in particular: motivate my student and give him a learning rhythm; encourage creativity; make friends with language; letters and their sounds strengthen your memory by working on the phonological loop; teach construction plans instead of having people learn sentences by heart; explain how the language works to make my student independent as quickly as possible; breaking preconceived ideas such as the gammatical gender would have a link with the biological gender, the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, the verbs would be irregular, the declension would be random and therefore to be learned with each verb... ; place practice at the center and articulate grammar around practice. In the context of a first course, you can get a well-founded idea of my pedagogy. I look forward to meeting you.

✨French teacher - Pass the DELF or DALF (French diploma) - Individual or group session. ✨
Hello, I am Majda, French language teacher. I have been giving private lessons online since 2018. I offer special sessions that meet your needs and objectives to successfully complete your DELF (Diplôme d'Etudes en Langue Française) or DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language), including the TCF (French Knowledge Test). I have been supporting many interested people of different nationalities thanks to online courses since 2018; For me, helping enthusiasts to practice the French language is a very good experience because I understand that success is a capital objective in the life of ambitious people. I speak Arabic, French, Spanish, and also English. I explain my lessons in the language of your choice. And at the end of each session, I give lessons with exercises to do as homework to examine your gaps and monitor your progress. Here are some things to know about the DELF and DALF: The DELF (Diploma of Studies in French Language) and the DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language) are two official and quality diplomas. They are harmonized on the levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. They include the following six levels, in ascending order: A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2. These two diplomas are suitable for all ages and all audiences. In addition, the DELF B2, and increasingly the DALF C1, allow students to enter French, European or French-speaking universities, and certain Grandes Ecoles. Will you have DELF or DALF exams to pass? Do you need to follow specific sessions with me to improve your level? Don't hesitate to book your sessions so that we can start the preparation. I am available !

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.

French private lessons: Language and communication [ONLINE]
I am a French teacher. I have been teaching French, language, and communication since 2012. I speak Arabic, French, Spanish, a little English, and a little Turkish. I explain my lessons in French, Arabic, or Spanish, depending on your choice. During the sessions, I explain the course that suits your needs. There is also the option to create an open discussion so that you can speak fluently over time and avoid grammatical gaps. And at the end of each session, I give "lessons" with "exercises" to do as homework to continue our support and increase your level. Bring a notebook for this training (or any suitable means) to take notes and keep them.
