Learning French: strengthening the mastery of the language or French as a foreign language (FLE)

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
This course corresponds to learning or strengthening the French language: we will work on oral and written comprehension and expression. Each session will start from a theme related to current events or culture to more easily study the rules of grammar, syntax, conjugation and develop vocabulary. Each time we will see a specific grammatical theme for which I will have designed comprehension and expression exercises. In order to diversify the approaches to the language, we will rely on different media: newspaper articles, extracts from podcasts, extracts from films, books, songs, ... I will explain to you each time their context of publication!

I designed this course so that it can be adapted to the learners: each person being different, it seems important to me to take into account the methods and needs of each one.

French is my first language but I can use English if necessary.

About Me

Hello!
I am a PhD student in Comparative Literature at UPEC. I love teaching and I would like to finance part of my studies, which is why I registered on this platform. I just graduated a Research MA in Comparative Literature at ENS of Lyon and a Teaching MA in Modern Literature by holding Agrégation of Modern Literature.

In parallel to my studies, I volunteered for two years by teaching French as foreign language in an association who aims to help people recently arrived in France not only to learn or master French language but also to familiarise with the culture. Moreover, I realized a year of lectorship at Charles University of Praha (Czechia) whereI mainly taught French civilisation, language and literature.

As a person curious and eager for new experiences, I have always been involved in many activities related to communication: from cultural and radio journalism to curating exhibitions (with cultural mediations), art and theatre, these activities have allowed me to develop other ways of sharing knowledge. I try to draw as much inspiration from them as possible to make my lessons more enjoyable and relevant! For me, it is important to adapt to learners: teaching is therefore a passion that can be learnt through years of experience as well as encounters with students.

Ophélie
Private lessons in French (spelling, writing ...)
French is a splendid language that is increasingly flouted (especially by young people, because of text messages or other). It's important to have a good spelling, to have writing and expression skills, this is important in any field and plays on many things, lack of self-confidence, fear of not to be the height. It can also be a brake on new experiences / openings; indeed, how can we learn another language if we are not even able to express ourselves in our mother tongue? I am here to help anyone (the shortcomings are present among young and old) to better use this language and to make it your strength!

Kevin
Polyglot specialist with 9 years of experience. German in speed mode. Level A1 to C2. No school teaching.
I offer you a German course that is not like the others. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches: If you travel back and forth by train every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options: 1) Memorise the timetable. 2) Realise that the train comes every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m. In school pedagogy, in textbooks and in normal lessons, the first approach is used - in the course I am offering you, it is the second approach because it is more economical and faster. My offer is aimed at both pupils and adults who want to learn the German language without time-consuming detours through the madness of fruitless school methods. Learning is easy, but unlearning things that have become bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, with my customised lessons you will greatly accelerate the learning process while having a positive attitude. I offer German lessons for individuals or groups (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive science and historical linguistics in particular. My modular programme can be adapted on a case-by-case basis. The converging point of these modules is your independence in spontaneous conversations in real life. What will not be covered in the course: learning lists of verbs; learning lists of nouns with articles; learning words with their translations; flashcards; doing school exercises; following the syllabus of a booklet; imposing the English grammar on the German language. What is particularly important to me: to motivate my student and to give him a learning rhythm; to encourage his creativity; to befriend him with the language; the letters and their sounds; to strengthen the memory by training the phonological loop; to teach blueprints instead of memorising sentences; to explain how the language works in order to make my student independent as quickly as possible; to eliminate common preconceptions, such as that 'der' would mean masculine and 'die' feminine, that the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, that verbs would be irregular, that declension would be random and therefore would have to be learnt with each verb...; to put practice at the centre and only deal with grammar where necessary. A first lesson will give you a sound idea of my pedagogy.

Elise
French private lessons by university graduate in Letters
Holder of a Master's degree in Letters and endowed with a solid experience in private lessons, I provide French lessons for students wishing to: - consolidate their bases in grammar, spelling - improve their language skills (allophone students) - improve their speaking skills (conversation classes) -profect the written expression - prepare for ECR exams - prepare for the written examinations at the end of the studies (maturity, certificate of completion) - help with the writing of works of maturity (or other works of end of studies), of dissertation - work on argumentative texts - acquire a method to analyze literary texts - learn how to perform bibliographic research The course material is a Google Docs document that I create in which my explanations, possible links, exercises appear. By reading it regularly, progress will be faster. It can also be used in addition to other documents (files printed by school teachers and/or books) and has many advantages: automatic updating, downloadable on tablets and smartphones, simultaneous monitoring of what is writing. For help with writing: The objective is above all to acquire effective tools. The student will thus be able to learn to structure his ideas, argue coherently (and convincingly) and enrich his vocabulary. It is essential for me to have written work from the student between each lesson. For analyzes of oral literary texts: In order to optimize the time available (and to put ourselves in conditions closest to oral exams), we choose together an extract from a work that the student will have previously prepared before the lesson. This would take around 20 minutes at most, and ideally just a little before the meeting time. If necessary, I have the habit of taking a paragraph at random which would serve as a basis for analyzing a passage. For the corrections of end of studies work: so that the meeting with the student is at the most profitable, I ask him to send me his writings before the meeting. Apart from my presence with the student, any course involves a preparation time before and after the lesson, including the work that I correct. My goal is to design an individualized course, so I take the time to write detailed comments on corrected work or tips to ensure maximum success for everyone. For example, an editorial correction can easily be the subject of a detailed commentary of 4 typewritten pages. For adults (FLE): In order to optimally prepare the first ones, I take the initiative to inform myself in advance of their objectives / expectations. Whether to practice speaking in everyday life, the professional world or to practice oral presentations, I prepare either PPT or technical sheets in advance that I send by mail ( after booking on the website). The other alternative is to make a PV of the course that I send (or that I print). Giving importance to keeping a written record on the one hand to better memorize the topics covered, on the other hand to better assimilate the spelling. Of a general nature, a concrete situation that responds to the learner's needs is the starting point. From this situation, I address the essential grammatical points.
