About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
In a studious atmosphere, my lessons are adapted to the personality and educational characteristics of each learner. The material is structured written and oral production, phonetics, specialty French, FOU, grammar, syntax, vocabulary, literature, history, originality and any learning project. My several years of experience give me the opportunity to offer my electronic-audiovisual material to all my students as well as current press documents. Screen sharing is the most useful tool, as I write the entire lesson during the session. At the end of the course I send the word pages to the student's email. The pupil could print or not, it is up to him alone to see that. The course begins with a small examination-revision of the last lesson. Homework should be prepared and I correct either on photo or orally, highlighting the learner's difficulties. At the end of the month there is the month check to consolidate what we have already learned. These are methods from large publishing houses such as Hachette, Clé, Nathan, Didier, Trait d'Union, Sorbonne University, Aristote University, Kapodistrian University, Ciep, which are offered in PDF as well as their audios. Many times there are press articles or videos on the news which can trigger very interesting discussions and comments. Often there are discussions on TV, movies, series or TV news in Greek or French.

My name is Marie and I am a private teacher of French and modern Greek. I have been teaching French for 30 years as well as modern Greek which is my mother tongue. Passionate about literature, history, pedagogy and method, I continued to study French literature at the University of the Sorbonne Paris IV. I worked at French schools in Greece and at the French institutes of Athens and Thessaloniki. I am very experienced in the preparation of FLE diplomas as well as Greek education diplomas. I prepare tailor-made courses according to the particular needs of each learner while respecting the structure of DELF, DALF, SORBONNE all levels, CCIP all options, CNED, FLS, TEF, TCF. My several stays in France as well as my work at the Acropolis Museum in Athens gave me the pleasure of teaching on webcam and in person using my own educational methods: I teach my personal method of Greek adapted for French speakers . Regarding French as a foreign language, I offer the material in PDF and audio documents for free.
A graduate of the Sorbonne Paris IV and experienced for 25 years, I offer courses at all levels online. My program also consists of preparing for the exams of the French IB program.

I have the chance to work on what I like the most in life and I am very happy to share my experience with you. I am ready to help you speak and express yourself in both French and Greek.

Very good course with Maria. Very kind and very professional. She takes the time to explain well and at the end of the course, she sends me documents and links so that I can study later. I recommend it :)

I am bilingual, Greek and French. 30 years of experience as a teacher, I give French lessons at all levels: DELF, DALF, SORBONNE, CCIP and CNED. On webcam in a studious atmosphere, I offer all electronic material free of charge on word and PDF pages. Specializing in both literary and economic texts, I take care of beginners as well as advanced people who want to progress in French. It is the same for all levels in Greek. Graduated from the University of Sorbonne IV Paris, I also work on corrections of memoirs, comments and translations. All the material for the French literary baccalaureate and for the French literature of the Aristotle Universities of Thessaloniki and Kapodistrian of Athens are provided free of charge. MY METHODOLOGY Expert for beginners, since I have worked a lot on my "beginners" method which is based on my own experience in collaboration with specialist writers from CLE international and so we proceed in stages. My methodology for other levels includes a variety of documents + books from major publishing houses, authentic sound documents, grammar exercises, animated dialogues, role plays with the learner, phonetics exercises, morphosyntax, analyzes of press articles or magazines from the same day of the real news and thus develop the side of French civilization and culture too much demanded for the DELF, DALF, SORBONNE exams. On webcam I share my screen, I write most of the terms and I send them after the lesson in pdf on the email of the student. The student will be able to print my notes. I also use specialized methods for English speakers. My lesson is not limited to an hour of 60 minutes because I send you throughout the week videos, magazines of your interest: arts, fashion, politics, history, health etc.

Italian language lessons from a native speaker - any level
Hello everyone! I'm Giorgia and I come from Torino, Italy. I offer my native knowledge of Italian to any of you, who wants to discover this beautiful language. I teach for all levels, from very beginners to advanced speakers, passing through amateurs or simply curious of any age. I can also help with university exams and school works/assignments. Being a pianist and a piano teacher, I already have lots of experience with teaching and pedagogical approach with the whole range of ages. The lesson is intended to meet the student needs: the focus can be on the grammar, conversation or literature. In case of a middle-level speaker, the lesson will cover all four language's abilities: listening, speaking, writing and reading. My suggestion of a well planned lesson is, for any level, to divide it into two parts: grammar first and then conversation (covering all the abilities mentioned above). Thank you for your attention and looking forward to meeting you !!

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.

Aisha
Learning English for beginners.
People struggling with English as an Additional Language (EAL) can face challenges in accessing education and social integration, requiring targeted support and strategies from educators and families. I myself had English as an additional language which I believe makes me very relevant as I can relate to how it feels knowing very little English. Languages I speak are Urdu, English, Punjabi, Italian, and Hindi.
