Beginner to advanced, learn English and achieve your goals your way!

Certified and experienced English teacher, I create lessons that suit your interests and together, we will achieve your goals!
Native from Geneva, I speak French fluently and I learned and developed my English while living in the United States, Canada, and Ireland. Later on, I completed my bachelor in Education at McGill University. Throughout my degree, I taught in different environments, from public primary school to private secondary and from Montreal to a Cree community.
In the past few years, I developed a wide portfolio of activities that will suit different levels and different learners. I am inspired by principles of alternative and critical pedagogies: defining the students' goals according to their needs, their learning style, and their cultural background, as well as creating a fair and supportive environment. With a pinch of technology, art, and games, I believe that language learning can be not only a precious professional skill but also a life experience.

See you in class!

About Me

Hello everyone,

My name is Lisa, I am originally from France and Switzerland and I have spent the last 7 years studying and working in Canada while traveling the world.

At the age of 15, I packed my bags and completed my junior year of high school in the United States. That's where I learned to speak English fluently and lost my French accent. I followed my passion for language learning and completed a bachelor in Teaching English as a Second Language at McGill University. During my degree, I spent a year abroad, split between Dublin and East Africa.

I keep my students interested and focused by mixing skills such as grammar, vocabulary, speaking, reading, writing, listening, according to your needs and goals. I also believe that a language is part of a global culture and it can be taught through art, technology, media... After our first meeting, where we will evaluate the areas to improve, I will create a program that will gradually help you achieve your goals.

So join me to learn English, your way!

Education

French baccalauréat in economics
Bachelor in Teaching English as a Second Language at McGill University
Master in Adult Education, Community Development & Youth Work at the University of Glasgow

Kevin
Non-academic Latin lessons. Multilingual teacher with 9 years of experience. Pronunciation, historical linguistics, conceptual semantics.
Contrary to popular belief, learning Latin is not like learning the phone book by heart. I offer you Latin lessons that are unlike any other. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches: If you take the train back and forth every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options: 1) Learn the schedules by heart. 2) Note that the train arrives every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m. In school pedagogy, in study notebooks and in ordinary courses, it is the first approach which is adopted - in the courses that I offer you, it is the second because it is more economical and faster. My offer is aimed at both students and adults who want to learn the Latin language or deepen their knowledge without time-consuming detours through the insanities of school methods which do not produce results. Learning is easy but unlearning what has become a bad habit is extremely difficult. All the more important it is to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. With my tailor-made teaching you will accelerate your learning in a positive state of mind. I offer individual or group Latin lessons (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive sciences and in particular historical linguistics. What will not be the subject of the course: learn lists of verbs; learn lists of nouns with their gender; learn words with their translations; memory card game; doing school exercises; follow the program in a notebook; impose French grammar on the Latin language. What matters to me in particular: motivate my student and give him a learning rhythm; encourage creativity; make friends with language; letters and their sounds strengthen your memory by working on the phonological loop; teach construction plans instead of having people learn sentences by heart; explain how the language works to make my student independent as quickly as possible; breaking preconceived ideas such as the gammatical gender would have a link with the biological gender, the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, the verbs would be irregular, the declension would be random and therefore to be learned with each verb... ; place practice at the center and articulate grammar around practice. In the context of a first course, you can get a well-founded idea of my pedagogy. I look forward to meeting you.
