English language for everyone to survive in contemporary world

I am not a professional English teacher. However, I can teach you how to speak, read and communicate in English without mistakes and feel yourself COMFORTABLE in an English speaking world. Why do I know all these things? Because I myself covered the way from a girl brought up in a closed country called Russia, the country which reputation is not very good now. I graduated from an English language secondary school which was created with the purpose "to know the language of your enemy" and, of course, for Russia that meant the US and England. So, teaching and learning English were taken very seriously there. I also studied English and Japanese at the university and obtained verious academic degrees. I was often invited as an interpreter when delegations and single scholars visited the institute where I worked. In this way I became familiar with various people around the world. When Russia became an open country, I applied for a job to teach Japanese History in Australia and was simultaniously offered a professor's position in Japan. Now I have been teaching at Japanese universities in English various subjects. I will be happy to share my experience with you.

About Me

Looking at my age one may think that I am old. Do not look at the face -- look into the soul. I am a university lecturer and among various serious subjects (Like Academic Writing and Japanese History) I teach on Japanese manga and anime. Most of all I like philosophical films by Miyazaki Hayao, for example, Castle in the Sky (天鼓の城ラピュタ). Also I like movies about school life such as The Girl Who Leapt Through Time (時をかける少女) or Whisper of the Heart (耳をすませば). All anime we can watch in English and in this way you will grasp English communication.

Education

大学でまず日本史 (Bachelor with Honours)を得て、

I am not a professional English teacher. However, I can teach you how to speak, read and communicate in English without mistakes and feel yourself COMFORTABLE in an English speaking world. Why do I know all these things? Because I myself covered the way from a girl brought up in a closed country called Russia, the country which reputation is not very good now. I graduated from an English language secondary school which was created with the purpose "to know the language of your enemy" and, of course, for official Russia that meant the US and England. So, teaching and learning English were taken very seriously there. I also studied English and Japanese at the university and obtained various academic degrees. I was often invited as an interpreter when delegations and single scholars visited the institute where I worked. In this way I became familiar with people around the world. When Russia became an open country, I applied for a job to teach Japanese History in Australia and was simultaniously offered a professor's position in Japan. Now I have been teaching at Japanese universities in English various subjects. I will be happy to share my experience with you.
It is rather difficult to urge 14-16 y. o. children to be interested in studying a foreign language, moreover at school. It seems too dull. However, each good teacher has his/hers own secrets how to turn learning, say, grammar into fun. I specialise in tutoring English for High School. So, we also have to be a bit serious. We can prepare for the exam by reading interesting stories, watching anime films and talking on everyday themes and topics. I assign homework after every lesson and provide periodic progress reports. Step by step English becomes a part of your life and you realise that in contemporary world you can't survive without the knowledge of English.
Nowadays, everyone should know how to manage business and everyone needs to know English for this purpose. Do you know how to write business letters, to prepare for the interview or participate in negotiations? I can teach all these things and many other to you. I have TEFEL/TESOl Certificate, which
Nowadays many people want to do business by themselves. For this purpose the knowledge of English is a must. Do you know how to write an application letter, how to prepare for an interview and to paticipate in negotiations? To be successful it is not enough to know English, but you must know Business English which is something completely different. Just call me or write to me and I will teach you everything.

Benoit
Private online mathematics lessons - Qualified and experienced teacher
I am a qualified and experienced mathematics tutor. Graduated from the Free University of Brussels in 2011, I started my career by teaching remedial courses in different schools in Brussels. I then specialized in individual academic support by following educational training at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. I have been giving private mathematics lessons daily for over ten years. The students who follow my private lessons benefit from personalized support. The first session is devoted to an in-depth assessment of the student's mathematical knowledge. The objective is to detect its weak points and understand their origin in order to adapt my courses to its needs. I develop a tailor-made remediation program for each of my students aimed at filling each of their gaps. Over the course of the sessions, the student builds a solid foundation for learning and regains self-confidence. At the same time, I help him acquire a work methodology that allows him to gradually become autonomous in his studies. I have a perfect knowledge of the mathematics program of the College and the High School (from the Sixth to the Terminale). During my formative years, I studied and developed many techniques that make it easier to learn math. The strength of my pedagogical approach lies in my ability to explain in a simple way everything that the student finds complicated. I am passionate about this job because it gives me the opportunity to guide dropout students on the path to success. It is a real pleasure to see them evolve and come to terms with the fantastic world of mathematics. I provide my private lessons in Limoges (at the student's home) or remotely (online via the internet). My distance learning courses take place on an interactive online whiteboard. This board is specially designed to promote student/teacher interaction on the internet. Thanks to this educational tool, my online courses are as effective as home courses. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to take advantage of it.
