Mandarin Chinese, speaking, listening & pronounciation
Chines grammar is relatively simple. Writing can be only improved by repeating for amounts of times, which can be done at home alone. Reading is built on top of writing. Therefore, the aim of this class is to practise speaking mandarin Chinese.
In this course, the student mainly talks with me about specific topics so that students can improve their pronounciation as well as vocabulary. Meanwhile, grammar will be also explained.
I know how to discover the interest of the students and motivate them to further their skills.

Bachelor of classical singing
My education was very various: my core subjects were conducting, choir, voice, piano. So it allowed me to work with children, teens and adults with quite wide range of interests and needs: some students needed/wanted to learn particular composition(s), sometimes pop songs arrangements, some were interested in “introduction” to the music, some wanted to renew skills they gained in their childhood and continue their journey to the music world.
As for singer who studied a lot about different approaches, technics and singing schools "Speech Training" was a part of the main subjects. It is extremely important to have clear pronunciation, make it sound free/relaxed (without any tension or unhealthy blocks) more confident, and emotional.
On our Speech training lessons I will help you to make your speech more clear, your voice will sound more healthy and confident.

Public Speaking for Kids (18 years and below)- tailor made classes based on student's age and backgroundIf you’re looking to help your child feel comfortable and confident speaking in front of others, my public speaking program is designed just for that. Drawing on my experience in Model United Nations and student leadership, I focus on helping kids speak naturally and authentically, rather than turning this into a grammar class.
Our sessions emphasize clear, organic communication—so kids learn to organize their thoughts, speak with confidence, and engage an audience without feeling scripted. Through a mix of activities tailored to their age, we’ll practice speaking techniques that make public speaking feel more like a conversation, not a formal lecture.
In addition to in-class activities like role-playing and group discussions, I’ll encourage them to practice outside the classroom too, whether through creating fun presentations or recording short talks. This class is all about developing a child’s unique voice and giving them the tools they need to speak comfortably and naturally in front of any group.

Communication Training (Professional / Personal) & Public SpeakingWhether your goal is personal or professional, speaking is a predominantly physical activity, relying on a body, a voice, a breath, a rhythm (diction) and an emotion (the imagination and the sensations, reflecting the involvement of the speaker in his speech.
How to send a clear message? How to make the difference, to make an impression? How to regain self-confidence and control the management of his emotions?
Knowing how to speak in public is now a necessity for the company and in the company. From a personal point of view, this is a vector for better relationships and optimal messages. On the phone, in a meeting, in front of a client or a banker (...), your public speaking must be effective and efficient with clear, simple and powerful messages, creating a match between the message received and the message sent.
Simple and pragmatic tools will be presented and then put into practice for: generating listening ● making an impression ● fostering trust ● generating need ● motivating teams by explaining a strategy ● getting messages across within groups.
Controlled, the method allows:
• improve self-confidence and stress management with the development of the speaker's fluency (verbal-bodily), his public speaking and his sense of repartee and improvisation
• to work on his ease, leadership, his NLP, his charisma, his creativity and to go towards a certain personal development, through a set of scenarios
* improve the characteristics of the spoken voice (timbre, pitch, intention, flow)
Completed by basic exercises (diction, voice, presence, breathing, presentation, time management ...), role plays, improvisations and simulations will be set up.
With the key words: pronunciation, rhetoric, verbal and non-verbal communication, diction / articulation, the sense of repartee, structured speech (...).
The goal is not only to focus on verbal communication but also on nonverbal communication, so as to make the control of his body, his voice (...), a real and lasting strength.
Depending on the interaction between the trainer - coach and the one who consults, there is no single way to operate: each type of session depends on the needs and difficulties of each.
In all cases, it is very often a question, while adapting to your own needs and after having precisely diagnosed your desired objective and the blockages encountered, to combine the theory (the bases of the studied concept, for example NLP / information asymmetry / the "how to say no" / the tools of non-verbal communication or the application of kinaesthesia) and its application (through exercises and direct applications).
For example, are discussed:
- the fundamentals of public speaking: breathing, gaze and body language
- diction and elocution: rhythm and range of your voice - management of your emotions and your emotional overflow (example: stress) - work on the body, to amplify your charisma and ensure consistency between your message and your body ... with the aim of:
* Enhance your presentation and arouse interest by focusing on your strengths, your qualities ... your personality
* Match the content and form of your message
* Improve your charisma, your self-confidence and the benefits of your emotional intelligence
Postgraduate School Training & Ivy league college in the United States, specialized and worked for over 13 years, in Europe and North America, in the field of communication and public speaking in renowned public and private international institutions, involved in forums and conferences, and focused on two areas: training and coaching, with the key words pedagogy and careful methodology.
PLACES
- Locations: Geneva - Lausanne - Friborg - Neuchâtel - Montreux - Basel - Sion - Sierre - Morges - Bienne. But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of live (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (example: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (example: notes that can be re-read on the chat). In this context, the videoconference sessions for which you asked me to seem to suit everyone perfectly, take place very optimally and generate a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). That is why, at your request, I continue to offer this option. Take good care of yourself and yours!

Language Learning Coach- Learn how to learn a language, use it with ease and have great conversations“I feel stuck”
These words I hear again and again, from beginners to advanced.
The majority of students who come to me are frustrated.
They spent many years studying languages at school. They’ve spent both their time and lots of money.
Only to find themselves still struggling to form a sentence. Still struggling to be able to understand a native speaker.
If you’re here then I’m assuming you share some of these same struggles.
You get confused trying to memorize grammar rules, remember vocabulary, and makes sentances. You don’t know how to learn every day. You get distracted and then you feel too tired to keep going.
Believe it or not, I’ve been there too and to be honest, it sucks
to have another language is to possess a second soul
Charlemage
Now, I want you to trust me on your language journey
Imagine finally knowing exactly what to do when you sit at your desk to learn a language.
Imagine knowing how to learn grammar, how to remember vocabulary and make it stick, how to speak, and how to write beautiful sentences.
Imagine going on holiday somewhere and interacting with locals. Laughing, eating, dancing and living life in a different language.

----------About the Lesson---------------------
