Conversation in English for French speakers: improve vocabulary, sentence structure and elocution in specific contexts
Translated by Google. Click to view original.
In many circumstances we think we know English; unfortunately it often appears that our knowledge is limited to simple vocabulary and sometimes inappropriate to the context or subject.This class aims to improve English using specific subjects and contexts such as daily life, the artistic field, the business world or even the medical field.
This class can also be a complement to learning more academic English; I can help you review grammar, tenses and even English structures.

About Me
Hello, I am Olivia and spend my time in between Amsterdam, France and Asia. Besides the travel (not at this moment), I learn everyday about the rich culture and rich differences that exist between for example the Dutch (married to one) and the French.I teach French and IB level to International School students and to business professionals wanting to sharpen their French skills. Teaching is a great way to connect and learn about another culture. Learning a vocabulary only gets you so far, add cultural understanding and you will unlock the key to making your French skills parfait!
I really enjoy finding creative ways to let the student experience the richness of the French language and practically link it to daily life situations. My interaction with high school-, university students and business professionals give me the opportunity to constantly improve my lesson content and methods. Interesting content method for millennials, relevant practical use for professionals. I use various online video (sharing) tools to have engaging lessons. Shall we try?

My son enjoys the lessons
She is so wonderful! My daughter enjoys her class very much.
Don't think twice, just book !
Olivia has been fantastic in helping my son for IB French oral prep, Paper 1 & 2. Her structured and engaging approach has made such a difference in his motivation to learn and put into practice knowledge and now he feels confident at moving from a borderline A-B to solid A standard. Given we are in Australia, she has been so flexible even doing 6am starts to suit our convenience.
Very good first lesson. Olivia was able to assess and plan the lessons exactly as my son needed.
Great first lesson! Merci!

Bonjour, my name is Olivia; I have a Master in teaching French language as well as the certification for the IB program (bilingual exam) for foreign or french high-school students. For the past 10 years I have taught at International Schools and given private tuition to students of different ages.
My main topic is the preparation of the IB program for high-school students including IGCSE, AB initio, Language B and language A, Standard level or high level. The principal parts of the IB program are developing the skills of understanding a context and a topic, as well as being able to give an opinion; speaking and writing are important but if you don't know what you are talking about, no language would be helpful. When I teach I always make sure that we reflect on the designated subject and we look for appropriate words to express it....Thinking before talking is one of the golden rule of the IB program
For the past 21 years, I've lived in Asia and taught different nationalities therefore I have developed an inspiring and interactive method to teach French language taking into account the personality of each student; not everyone learn at the same pace
I hope to meet you soon for the lessons
Bonjour, my name is Olivia; I have a Master in teaching French language but also experienced in teaching French to company professionals working in- or with French companies.
After having lived for 23 years in Asia and taught different nationalities, I've developed an inspiring and interactive method to teach French language linked with the French culture; food, people, art, fashion. I guess language is the first step but the "Etiquette" is what makes you more French and being more successful in business settings.
With me, you will learn French at your pace, according to your needs, your motivation and the request from your company.
The French baccalaureate is the first important test for a high school student, it is therefore a question of preparing them to learn but above all to understand; the era of rote learning is a bit over, you now have to show the examiner that you have understood the work and that you can talk about it "naturally".
Preparation is therefore essential, the work must be mastered and stress managed on the day of the test.
If you would like to help the future high school graduate, I offer revision and preparation courses for the French baccalaureate and baccalaureate.
Feel free to contact me for more information
After working as an IB and French teacher, mainly for teenagers, I realized that the profession had evolved and that sometimes to pass an exam, knowledge was not enough; self-confidence, well-being, attitude and mentality have become essential components of success.
This is why, in addition to my training as an IB teacher, I followed a professional certification whose modules focused on the psychology of adolescents and their challenges in the face of a constantly changing world.
I therefore offer listening and speaking sessions for adolescents in difficulty but also programs more focused on the organization of a day, work at school and at home and finally lessons more focused on preparation mental exams.
Do not hesitate to contact me if you would like more information or make a specific request.
The secrecy of the sessions is naturally respected
Ask a question
Send a message explaining your needs and Olivia will reply soon:
The more detail, the better.

Learn how to become fluent in English with Teacher Tenique.I am a qualified ESL Teacher. In my class we focus on the four skills: speaking, reading, writing and listening. I am experienced in teaching IELTS, TOEIC, KET and PET.
If you want to work on your Fluency, pronunciation, grammar or just have a general conversation we can do that.
Let me tell you what else you can expect from our session.
There are 3 things:
1. we are going to have fun! I understand how difficult it can be to learn a new language. I have studied Afrikaans so I know it can be very difficult to learn a new language but it's always important to have fun!
2. We are going to work on improving your skills. While we are in class, we can have a general discussion. I will give you feedback. I will help you correct your mistakes and please I don't want you to worry about making mistakes. Mistakes are good. When you make a mistake, you learn. Practice makes progress. This is how we improve.
3. Create a plan. Remember, getting to Fluency needs a plan. It is important to understand where you are going. Do you want to use English for work, travel or do you want to use it for school? What ever it is you want to learn English for, it is a good idea to have a plan.
My classes are designed to meet your needs and reach your goals of learning English at a pace that you are comfortable with.
