English: pronunciation (British or American). No grammar lessons. Adults only.

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I have facilitated workshops and given classes throughout my career all over the world.

English pronunciation is essential these days because English is spoken everywhere and all the time.

I followed specialized training such as the verb tonal method, Feldenkrais or mental coaching.

We are therefore going to work in a slightly different way by combining articulatory techniques, movement, rhythm, intonation, warming up of the jaw and tongue, stretching of the neck, neck and shoulders to arrive to very fast results.

About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I am fortunate to have an exciting job. It allowed me to discover the world and very different cultures. These trips teach modesty, humility and tolerance.

There is not a way of living but ways of living, thinking, thinking and behaving, and if the trainings I give help people communicate more easily, more effectively, it's a very beautiful gift!

I have always been passionate about oral communication. The wealth of tools and methods that exist today allow us to make it fluid and efficient and to control the stress that sometimes accompanies it.

I would like to express my deep gratitude to Corinne who was an invaluable support during the preparation of the oral defense of my thesis. She demonstrated attentive listening and remarkable kindness, which helped me enormously in an extremely difficult period, both psychologically and physically. Thanks to her expertise, particularly in PowerPoint, we managed to create a presentation that was not only received with distinction, but also received congratulations. Her experience in stress management was a real plus for me and allowed me to approach this stage with serenity. I highly recommend her services to anyone in need of professional and caring support.

I contacted Corinne at the last minute for a professional presentation. Corinne helped me at short notice to review the slide deck of my presentation, help me make my oral expression fluent, improve my accent, and give me tips for my gestures as well as stress management. I couldn't have dreamed of anything better! It was super useful to me. It was a pleasure to work with such an involved person. Corinne also gave me vocals with my text to allow me to rehearse better between the two lessons. Thank you for everything !

Corinne is an exceptional English teacher. His courses allowed me to complete my preparation to succeed in the post-preparatory class competitions of French management schools. Without her, I would not have managed to get into a top 5 school with very good English grades. In addition to her professionalism which allowed her to adapt to my objectives - namely pronunciation - Corinne gave me essential advice to succeed in the oral tests using methods linked to oratory. If you are looking for an English teacher, I only have one piece of advice to give you: take the plunge and contact Corinne! She will be able to meet your needs and even reconcile you with learning this language!

Managing stress, controlling your voice when you have to speak in public (in a conference, webcast or webinar), offering clear and well-structured information, these can represent famous challenges, especially today when it is necessary do this online. To achieve your goals, I offer you a holistic approach to public speaking because, to convey a message, form and content are intimately linked. After a few sessions, you will feel more confident, more convincing. Your interlocutors will be more attentive to the information you want to transmit. Your voice will stay clear longer. Through stress management, you will feel a great boost of energy and concentration. Regarding the form, we will work in particular, the posture, the breathing, the modulation of the voice, the volume, the height, the intonation, and also the eye contact, the gestures, the pauses, in short, what one calls the "non-verbal". We will also see the elements that take precedence during a presentation or an exchange on the Internet. And, if it helps, we'll see the different ways to handle your stress. We will establish your profile to choose the tools that suit you best. Finally, if you have short deadlines (or not), you can put yourself in situation and, for example, prepare an interview, a presentation, a conference or a meeting. We will make simulations that will allow you to be in full possession of your means and the content of your intervention.
French pronunciation is a real challenge. The verbo tonal method, often used by speech therapists, is particularly suitable for correcting French pronunciation for those of you who are not French speakers but also for French speakers who wish to get rid of an accent. We will work on the sounds of the language integrated into the sentence, the rhythm, the intonation and considered as a living and evolving system. This method is very effective. You will see your progress very quickly and your self-confidence will allow you to overcome any reluctance you may have had before to express yourself in public. For others, having a more neutral pronunciation in French can be a significant asset professionally.
Preparation for university entrance tests. Sight translation. Practice of the consecutive and the simultaneous Master 1 and Master 2 on the basis of authentic or didactic speeches according to the levels. Introduction to or reinforcement of note-taking: deverbalization, symbols, abbreviation, practice of economics. Work on active listening, discourse analysis, synthesis spirit, expression in French or in language B. We can also work on your voice, stress management, posture or breathing, for example.
I am a recently retired university professor. I have supervised and corrected dozens of dissertations in my career and therefore, you can count on me to support you effectively. We will prepare together your oral presentation, your powerpoint, if there is one, we will do simulations and I will give you exercises to manage your stress. All of this can easily be done online in French or English. See you soon!

English - learn by doing (from perfecting the language to teaching the basics to upgrading)
In the case of tutoring, I base my lessons on the subject seen by the student by explaining to him in another way with many examples and by making him practice as much as possible. In case of learning the basics, I have set up my own totally interactive method so that the student can practice and during which I speak almost only in English to be close to immersion during the lessons. Do not hesitate to contact me for: - learn the basics - prepare for a test - have support for your lessons - practice the language - ... Whatever your needs, I take a practical and fun approach to English because, in my opinion, it is the best way to learn.

I know you speak it. I WILL FIX IT! West Coast (California) English. We walk, we talk, I correct! FUN! Learn by playing !
Hello! If you can understand this message without having to translate then you are ready for my help! I am from California, and have been living here in Brussels since 2012. I am 39 years old. I speak West Coast (California) English. It's the English you hear in your favorite California movies. I love to help friends who already speak "european street English" while HAVING FUN! Did you know that 70% of learning a language is learned OUTSIDE of a classroom setting? So I propose we go to the park, we cook together, we go on a bike ride, we draw, we play. And of course we will talk a lot. When I hear an error I will correct you in a fun way, writing things for you, with FUN AND REAL examples, with drawings, ALWAYS STAYING 100% in English. That's correct, I will only speak English to you, because as you and I both know, you already speak English, and you have understood everything (or maybe 70%) of everything I just wrote. What you want is to improve or perfect your spoken English (we can work on writing, too). Immersion and fun, West Coast Style. And my university degree? Yes, I have two of them, in Languages and Literatures, and I speak 4 fully fluent languages, but for now I want you to learn by HAVING FUN! My friends can tell you how fun it is to learn with me. HOPE WE GET TO PLAY TOGETHER SOON! You can do it! Groups ok.

English Tutoring for Comfort at Work and to Pass Exams
I specialise in tutoring English for European Union professional exams (e.g., AST - AD promotion exams and 'retour' interpretation exams), for other exams (SAT, GMAT, GRE, FCE, CAE, CPE, IELTS. TOEFL), for thesis submission, and for other professional work, particularly English for auditors, legal, financial and ambassadorial advisors, business people, project managers, salespeople, physicians, scientists, and academic students. All courses are individually tailored to the student's needs and students are invited to supply their own materials from work. Courses usually focus on passing an exam or on achieving a sense being able to work comfortably in English with native or non-native English speakers.

Practice and improve your English effectively
Having followed an English training from kindergarten to high school, I want to share the bilingualism that was offered to me. Because English is linguistically a major tool and it opens many doors, I want to teach the student how to master it at best. To do this, a course divided into two equal parts, the first to learn grammar and vocabulary and the second to practice.

English lessons for beginners and more advanced (children and adults), oral practice, accent, vocabulary, pronunciation
The best way to learn a language is to practice it, listen to it and read it! This is why, as far as possible, the lessons will be given IN English, in order to train both your ear and to push you to answer/think in English. A large part of the learning will go through the oral practice of the language: you will be invited to express yourself on various subjects that interest you. Depending on your interests (and the sphere of possibilities), we can practice English through different activities: cooking, song analysis/translation, etc. Do not hesitate to call on me, if your objective is: - To acquire a more fluent English / to converse - Work on your pronunciation/accent - To rework a written text / train your written expression - Learn the basics of the language I am used to working with children and can adapt to all audiences. I also offer lessons for the little ones, for a fun initiation with games and small activities (cooking, crafts, walks, drawing, etc.). I can also address an adult audience seeking to acquire fluent English, a developed vocabulary, and ease in specific contexts.

English courses for beginners and primary school children
I give English lessons for beginners or for primary school children. I did all my schooling in English and at the moment I am studying, the majority of my courses are in English. My lessons will be done so that the student understands the majority. I will favor the tests and dictation done together so that he/she practices and I will not hesitate on pronunciation so that they learn from a young age to pronounce the words well.

MATH / ECONOMY / ENGLISH private lessons tailor-made - Support & School Coaching
Are you a student and have this anxiety about certain subjects? Do you feel that someone else speaks another language to you during the course? Are you overwhelmed by the quantity and speed of the teacher? Are you just not satisfied with your results? Are you a parent and do you feel helpless when facing your child's difficulties? Do not hesitate! I am Liza and I have been helping many students in math for over 10 years but also to relieve parents from this feeling of helplessness in the face of their children's shortcomings. Math can scare some people. I myself went through a great deal of misunderstanding until I found the method and approach necessary to fully master this dreaded class of students. I offer private lessons to students with specific shortcomings, but also to those with more general needs. My classes are tailor-made for each student. I teach from the first primary to the retho. My method is simple and effective. As a school coach, my goal is above all to understand where the difficulties come from. Each student is different, so it is important to create an effective and tailor-made work methodology. Over the years, I have developed structured and fun keys for everyone. I learned about all the school programs in Namur, but also gained experience in other countries around the world. The purpose of the first meeting is to get to know the student and determine his current level of mathematics, what are his strengths and weaknesses, and what are the goals to be achieved. That is why, during the first session I do with the student a thorough work on the methodology to adopt to facilitate the understanding of the concepts and optimize their return. On the basis of this observation, I define with the pupil and his parents an educational strategy (notions to be reviewed as a priority, working method, duration and frequency of classes) designed to best meet the student's objectives. Then I adapt and base my course on the student program while customizing it according to the student and his needs. Even though theory is very often the least appreciated part, I make sure that my student understands its usefulness in different exercises and problems. To ensure good understanding, I organize exercise sessions and tests. The duration of the course is 2 hours. I always advise 2 hours because it's the perfect time to have the time to: - Identify and fill persistent gaps - Establish effective learning methods - Incorporate reasoning mechanisms - Learn how to restore your knowledge My students greatly appreciate the organization and the clarity of my explanations. Once followed and mastered, success is assured. With Liza it is a relief for parents and a success for children.

Feel stuck? Let's take your English to the next level
Since I believe that the learning environment is one of the keys to successful language learning, I endeavor to make students feel comfortable and content in my lessons: to ask questions if they are unsure and keep an easy but rewarding pace of learning. Depending on how my students feel they learn English most effectively, I adapt my lessons to use materials that give them the best results possible. For instance, some students find the continuity of a coursebook effective, while others prefer to be more flexible with articles and podcasts. I know from experience that every student is unique.
