About Me

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.

English for French speakers, advanced or beginner
English being a language used all over the world, mastering it seems more and more essential these days. Certain school methods do not work for everyone. Being bilingual, I offer courses that adapt to everyone's needs for more effective learning.

French pronunciation training effective and fast
Practice leads to perfection Unless you learned to speak French when you were a child, it is difficult when you don't speak it fluently to pass for a French speaker. However, this does not prevent you from learning to speak it correctly, because it is well known that a language spoken with a foreign accent is an asset of seduction! Although it may seem complicated, learning a new language is always fun and beneficial, so it is important to practice as much as possible and above all not to give up. Take every opportunity you are given to speak the language and listen to French as soon as possible. And remember: practice leads to perfection!

Rémi

With me, your French and your pronunciation will improve! See you soon, Rémi

🇪🇸 Personalized and private Spanish classes, in person or online at all levels.
Hola a todos! I'm Evelyn, a native Spanish speaker from Peru, currently living in Geneva while pursuing my master's degree. Teaching languages is my passion, and I have extensive experience teaching Spanish to students of all ages and levels. My teaching approach is fully customized to meet each student's needs and objectives. I incorporate a variety of materials—books, videos, songs, games, and practical exercises—to make learning enjoyable and effective. Classes start in English for clarity, but we quickly transition to a conversational Spanish environment, helping you immerse in the language and accelerate your progress. Each student receives a personalized plan, which they can review and adjust to focus on the topics that matter most to them. This plan is documented to track progress, along with session presentations. Classes can take place in person at your home, my apartment, or a convenient location nearby, including in surrounding areas of France. Online classes are also available. For in-person sessions, I provide physical materials (or digital if preferred), and for online courses, all resources are shared via email or Google Classroom. Alongside grammar and vocabulary, I emphasize practical application, engaging students in constant conversation to build confidence. My goal is to create a supportive and motivating environment where you feel comfortable speaking Spanish. If you're looking for a Spanish teacher to support you in reaching your language goals, don’t hesitate to get in touch. I'm here to help you succeed!
