Learn English - From Little Knowledge to Advanced

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I was born in Norway, but my mother tongue is English thanks to my British father from London. I have good language skills to learn other languages, and I have a bachelor's degree in education and music. I am a trained teacher.

My method includes oral and written practice, depending on the level of the student and what he wants to learn. I really want the student to form his own sentences and try to write texts. I also have learning materials on which the student can work at home.

(It is also important to know that my French is very basic and that it is difficult for me to learn English to someone who does not speak it at all).

About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
course:
I am a lyric singer, performance artist and electronic music producer from Bergen, Norway. I am mainly a classical singer (mezzo-soprano), but I have many other experiences from courses and masterclasses in CVT, ESTILL, Alexandre technique, improvisation technique and general pop singing.

Methodology:
Regardless of the genre, I usually work with key concepts for "healthy vocalization"; namely "support", body and balance, vocal placement and "projection", as well as psychology and musicality.
The first half of the lesson is usually composed of technical exercises. The rest consists in interpreting a song prepared by the student, emphasizing the incorporation of the techniques used during the exercises as well as the pronunciation and the musicality.
Most importantly: "I want you to feel that you can be the best you can be!". I want you to feel that you can be the best of yourself!

My work is that of classical singer (mezzo-soprano), but I have many other experiences from courses and masterclasses in CVT, ESTILL, technical Alexandre, improvisational technique, songwriting and general "pop singing". I have 8 years of experience, and have studied classical singing in Norway, The Netherlands and Portugal with a completed pedagogical bachelor. If you have problems with your posture, reccuring muscle breads, I can also help with this problem.
Ever wanted to write your own songs? Do you like folk singing? Are you the leader of a band or do you want to be a French Bob Dylan? With basic composition methods, I can help you create your own music. If you want to sing with electronics, a guitar, a piano or just write a text with chords it's quite possible. I will teach you basic music theory, several composition methods to start a song. Even if it's rap or heavy metal, I can help you somehow

Private lessons and tutoring in French, English and Spanish
Graduated from a Masters in Comparative Literature and a Masters in Literary Translation, currently a freelance translator, I offer tutoring courses for middle and high school students in French. I have already accompanied several students in their preparation for the French bac, who have all made good progress. With my students, I insist on acquiring a good methodology to succeed, and put special emphasis on self-confidence: text commentary and essay should not be scary exercises! I work with the texts studied in class and adapt to the student's needs: revisions, feedback on corrected homework, preparation for oral exams, writing exercises ... I can also help students learn English and Spanish, which are my working languages. We look forward to meeting you, and taking part of the literary journey together, Lucia

Michaël
Learn in a simple and effective way: Spanish - English - Portuguese
Good morning! Buenas dias! Delighted Michaël, teacher on the internet for more than two years. I would like to offer you a fun interaction that complements the school method. I have traveled around the globe which has led me to speak several languages and also to work in particular in England, Australia, Spain or the Dominican Republic. Basically I start the lessons by talking with my students about a bit of everything (in order to enrich the vocabulary). Depending on the level I adapt with files that are sent during the course. I also use the Callan method which works on repetition in order to properly assimilate useful words and phrases. All in a positive way :) Tell me your availability if you're interested for a first lesson. At worst it will have made you practice, at best you improve! Regards

Ally
Learn American culture and the English language
My English lessons are for all levels and my style is relaxed - I will adapt to you! I have lived in several American cities (San Francisco, San Diego, Washington DC, New York) and I will be happy to talk to you about American culture. Cinema, music, politics, differences between the French and American models, comparisons between the West Coast and the East Coast... let's talk about what interests you! I know that what helped me most in my learning English was making English-speaking friends. My priority is that you talk to me about yourself while having fun to the point of forgetting that it's in English! Let's have fun above all. :)

ENGLISH LESSONS prof from England all levels individualised or group lessons

You can work on your grammar, writing, speaking and pronunciation. Are you desperate to pass your exams, prepare yourself for an interview or correct an essay?

It is possible to form a group at a reduced price, tell me with whom you would like to form a group. ;-) If not, the lessons are also individualised (private). All levels are welcome (beginners to university students)! The teacher will be happy to receive you. Lessons can also be delivered online, students even learn better when lessons are given via Skype (the teacher takes notes for you online), technology is so cool! :-) Do you have a question? Don't worry, the teacher will be happy to answer you. Lessons usually last 50 minutes.

As a student in the English-speaking world, I would like to share my knowledge of it with grammar, speaking, writing, history, culture and literature as well as help in the school setting for an hour through numerous multimedia files and while giving the course.

Juliette
Private English lessons for students (primary, middle, high school) and adults
Hello all, I am Juliette, Doctor in Health Biology and holder of a Master's degree in international cooperation. Passionate about foreign languages and intercultural exchanges, I am currently learning 2 languages on my own: Spanish and Russian. After having taken LV1 English in middle school and high school (18/20 at the baccalaureate), I continued to learn English through my travels (Europe, India) and my research activity (I carried out a thesis in biology). I have written scientific articles in English, and I speak English on a daily basis with my foreign partner. I am level B2/C1: I got 925/990 on the TOEIC in 2021. Regarding the courses I offer: I favor dialogue, listening and the acquisition of vocabulary in learning a language, but I can also work specifically on grammatical or conjugation points, particularly if there are expectations linked to school programs. Whatever the level of English targeted and the possible blocking points, I think that regular listening and practice are a sure way to anchor the good automatisms of the language in the long term. By hearing certain turns of phrase, certain grammatical notions will end up coming spontaneously to your mind when you write and express yourself. What I propose, depending on your level and your requirements (exams, school programs, etc.): - define together a program likely to meet your expectations - deliver the course in English (even if it means speaking slowly, translating certain words, and mixing English with French at the beginning). Abroad, language courses are taught in the language, and this quickly contributes to progress :) - vary the learning supports and angles: written, oral and listening. Ideally, a session will consist of all 3. - Establish with you, depending on your availability, a program to do independently during the week (watch a short video on Monday, listen to a podcast on Wednesday, read the news on Saturday, etc.) - gradually support you, if you wish, towards autonomy in learning this language. Looking forward to meeting you and speaking English with you! Juliette

Silvia
Language courses at school level and for adults.
I am an Italian teacher (my mother tongue) in a French high school and college. I hold a Master's degree with honors in Foreign Languages and Literatures (English and French) from the University of Bologna. I also studied Spanish for five years and lived and worked in Spain for two years, reaching C2 level. I have experience as a teacher of English for high school students, Spanish for migrants and as an educator in educational projects for children and adolescents with special needs. During these experiences, I was able to develop and perfect a method that was both didactic and educational, based on active listening to needs, trust and cooperation. When it comes to the material, I try to make it as dynamic and creative as possible, aware of the fact that language learning is more effective if placed in situational contexts and based on personal inclinations.
