Primary (general) and secondary (literary / language) tutoring

I did tutoring for three years. After a long break in order to finish my studies as a specialized educator, I decided to resume.

I can help primary school students in all subjects as well as secondary school students (but only for literary/language subjects).

I studied at a translation school in English and Spanish as well as at a special education school. I lived in England for a year and my father is Chilean, so I speak Spanish perfectly.

I also have the First Certificate of English diploma.

I adapt my working methods according to the students and their needs. I find it essential to create the course with the student, so that my teaching is best suited to the person in front of me.

Do not hesitate to contact me for more information and/or a meeting!

About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I started giving private French lessons to non-native speakers. five years ago for three years. I stopped for two years, having worked as a special education teacher during these two years in order to finish my studies as a special education teacher.

Currently, I am starting to give French lessons to non-French speakers again. I provide tutoring in French, English and Spanish for primary and secondary schools. I can also help with all subjects at the primary level.

I always make sure to adapt my lessons to the students I have in front of me. Each time, I try to build my course with them so that the method is as suitable as possible. Indeed, we all have a different way of learning, understanding and remembering things. It is therefore essential for me to be able to take this into account during my lessons.

Education

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I did a literary baccalaureate in France, with a Spanish option. I have the First Certificate of English diploma, obtained in England 10 years ago.
I studied two years in a translation school in English and Spanish.
I have a diploma in specialized education (bachelor), obtained in Belgium.

...
I gave French as a foreign language lessons for about three years, to children and adults. After a two-year break, here I am back to start teaching French as a foreign language again. I speak several languages, and this taught me to understand how to learn a language. I know what non-French speakers go through, what process they have to go through in order to learn French. I adapt each time my way of teaching at the request of the student. I prefer to create the course with the student (if he or she also prefers it, of course) so that I can best meet the needs of the person I am teaching. Indeed, everyone has a different way of learning, understanding and retaining new things. It is therefore essential in my eyes to be able to adapt as much as possible to the student.
I do tutoring for primary and secondary students. However, I cannot help with science subjects for secondary school students. My father being Chilean, Spanish is my second language. Regarding English, I lived in England for a year where I took lessons. I also babysat children in Italy for several months, with whom I had to speak English constantly. I also have the First Certificate of English diploma. I took courses in a translation school for two years in English and Spanish. It allowed me to see in depth the grammar of these two languages and study them at a higher level. I gave French lessons for three years to non-French speakers. I try to find the method that corresponds to each one. Indeed, it is important for me to understand how the person to whom I am teaching works in order to best adapt my teaching. I don't think there's just one method, and imposing one on someone isn't productive for me.

Private French lessons - improvement and oral and written practice

Anastasia
Young teacher offers dynamic French lessons to all levels
Bonjour! My name is Anastasia, I am a 24 years old French native and I am here to help you improve your French skills. I have been teaching students of various levels from all around the world for over 5 years. I have helped students prepare for French exams like the DELF, as well as those who are planning to move to a French-speaking country and need real-life language skills. I understand the challenges of learning a language, having learned two languages myself: English and Portuguese, and plan to learn more. I have faced difficulties, hit walls, and overcome them, and I believe that my experience as a language learner makes me a well-rounded teacher. However, I do not claim to know everything about teaching, as I am constantly learning. I tailor my teaching method to best suit the needs of my students. I use interactive resources such as images, videos, and texts to help my students learn effectively. For beginners, I recommend trying out the Pimsleur method, which is a 30-minute audio lesson based on gradual interval recall. This method reviews learned vocabulary at increasingly longer intervals and has been used by the CIA. If you are interested, we can discuss how to use this method together. I offer French lessons remotely through Skype, Zoom, and Microsoft Teams or at the students place. When the lesson is online, I use a platform that allows us to see and modify documents, images, and videos in real-time, which is very useful. I would be happy to help you on your French learning journey.

English - learn by doing (from perfecting the language to teaching the basics to upgrading)
In the case of tutoring, I base my lessons on the subject seen by the student by explaining to him in another way with many examples and by making him practice as much as possible. In case of learning the basics, I have set up my own totally interactive method so that the student can practice and during which I speak almost only in English to be close to immersion during the lessons. Do not hesitate to contact me for: - learn the basics - prepare for a test - have support for your lessons - practice the language - ... Whatever your needs, I take a practical and fun approach to English because, in my opinion, it is the best way to learn.

Narindra Thalia
French as a Foreign Language Course (Reinforced Oral Practice)
Mastering the language of Molière, both beautiful and complex, is not easy even for native speakers. This is why I offer French as a foreign language courses that are more focused on oral practice, but always coupled with a theoretical basis. I adapt to the pace and preferences of each person, on the topic of conversation that interests them. For beginners, I suggest starting with everyday vocabulary, expressions of standard French and/or specific to the country. For the more advanced, we can start discussions on a subject that fascinates them from their language to French.

Feel stuck? Let's take your English to the next level
Since I believe that the learning environment is one of the keys to successful language learning, I endeavor to make students feel comfortable and content in my lessons: to ask questions if they are unsure and keep an easy but rewarding pace of learning. Depending on how my students feel they learn English most effectively, I adapt my lessons to use materials that give them the best results possible. For instance, some students find the continuity of a coursebook effective, while others prefer to be more flexible with articles and podcasts. I know from experience that every student is unique.
