Chinese lessons (online or in real life) with native Chinese speaker (Madarin or Cantonese) from Hong KongChinese is a complex language but don't let that stop you from learning it. My lessons will focus on communication and pronoucniation as I believe they will give students the confidence they need to pursue learning any language. I will use pinyin as a method of teaching native pronounciation. There will be writing templates prepared to help with correct writing. I am flexible to offer any help with the language depending on the student's familiarity of the language.
Unfortunately I do not speak Dutch, but I do speak fluent English so I will be able to translate from Chinese to English for better understanding.

MEDIA TRAINING WORKSHOPS (TELEVISION AND RADIO)How to prepare for a media interview? What means should be used to fight his fear of the camera and improve his image? How to present yourself and your project in front of a camera?
How to present yourself and your project to the media?
Targeted content according to your project: Verbal and / or gestural communication; Seduction of the lens and / or microphone; Improvisation in front of a microphone and / or a camera; Voice & gaze; Games of one or two cameras; Chronic; Animation; Reportage; Direct radio & TV; Interview; Narration; Speech in all its forms (...)
In short, several objectives:
◾ Confront your shyness in front of the microphone / camera.
◾ Understand his speech and his diction.
◾ Taming the media environment (radio / tv).
◾ Familiarize yourself with your image and voice.
◾ Manage your speaking time.
Through exercises (diction, voice, presence, breathing, presentations, time management, etc.), role plays, interview simulations and familiarization with one's image and voice, the participants move at their own pace in a flexible educational framework.
Note that during the videoconference session, all the notes are transcribed in the chat so that you can access them at any time when you wish.
Indeed, speaking is a predominantly physical activity, which, while taking care of its image, is based on a body, a voice, a breath, a rhythm (diction) and an emotion (the imagination and the sensations ) reflecting the speaker's involvement in his speech. How to send a clear message? How to make the difference, to make an impression?
Knowing how to speak, act and interact in public is almost a necessity today: your public speaking must be effective and efficient with clear, simple and powerful messages.
Simple and pragmatic tools will be presented for: generating listening ● making an impression ● fostering confidence ● generating need ● motivating teams by explaining a strategy ● getting messages across within groups ● overcoming shyness by assimilating 3 CRV axes (body-breathing-voice) ● better manage disagreement or conflict.
Mastered, 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 their ease, leadership, charisma, creativity and personal development through scenarios.
* improve the characteristics of the spoken voice (timbre, pitches, intention, flow).
* get your message across through your image, while gaining improvisation skills and responsiveness.
Supplemented by basic exercises (diction, voice, presence, breathing, presentation, time management), role plays, improvisations and simulations. With the key word: pronunciation, diction / articulation, the sense of repartee.
Statistically, the progression following these private sessions is quickly noticeable, from 2 sessions. ( study 2020).
Trained in Grande Ecole post-preparatory classes & Ivy League university in the United States, specialized and has worked for more than 15 years, in Europe and North America, in the field of communication and public speaking, in renowned international public and private establishments, intervening in forums and conferences, and oriented on pedagogy and careful methodology.
- 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: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to suit everyone perfectly, take place in a very optimal way 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!

As well as Primary & Secondary students who wish to enter the International Class, in particular at CiV de Valbonne, Collège de Roquefort-Les-Pins...
Also, I practice face-to-face as well as remotely by videoconference; in France as in Europe.
Thus, during these two decades, I have implemented proven methodological approaches.
Some borrowed from the Theatre, such as the Davis method (mind mappings / colors); others in Professional Coaching (my specialty), such as Mental Preparation, Cognitive Remediation, Emotional Intelligence, 4th Generation NLP.
Knowing that the main objective here is to establish a specific framework, so as to accommodate a methodology adapted to each of the learners. In order to motivate them in the long term, in particular by developing a certain agility at home. For now, as for their future, when I will no longer be present at their side to accompany them.
Finally, Professor from General Education, mainly in scientific subjects, I propose to accompany you to become an actor in the construction of your learning path, especially in this period so singular but oh so rich in its opportunities and challenges to raise.
Besides that, I practice an hourly rate within the framework of the CESU.

Lessons to teach Arabic to native and non-native speakers, teaching the Holy Quran with Tajweed.We will learn the basics of the Arabic language from letters until we start reading to a high level. We also speak in classical Arabic to develop the skill of speaking Arabic using modern teaching strategies and methods.
From the first class, the student can speak Arabic. I rely in my lessons on the Nooraniyah rule if the guardian wants to teach his son to read the Holy Quran, and also a special curriculum for the student who does not speak Arabic.
If the guardian wishes to teach Arabic reading, writing, and grammar, praise be to God, we follow a group of books, at the top of which is Arabic in Your Hands, Basic Education, and Arabic Lessons, and there are other curricula from which you can choose what suits the student’s needs.
In each class, we must practice the four language skills of listening, reading, writing and speaking, in an atmosphere of interaction between me and the student.
I can help you with your Arabic and Quran requirements.
I can explain the Quran to Arabic speaking students before they start memorizing.
My life is full of courses, meetings and readings in this field so that I can be qualified to do so, so that I can help you and you can progress as well.
I can give you advice away from the routine of work to achieve your self, succeed and be creative in your life through my experience and dealing with children.
This field is not only for learning a language, but it also gives us the abilities and will to succeed in life. The language of the Qur’an, which God has honored, makes us read and memorize the Qur’an to understand God’s messages to us.
We seek to learn to refine behavior and develop skills so that we may become a nation of readers, as our noble Messenger loved.
I memorize the Qur’an by dictation first for those who do not read, then by spelling after giving a set of lessons to the student so that he can spell directly from the Qur’an.

Quality French lessons from a professional tutor with a lot of experienceI have an approach where the goal is to pass the test/ exam or another goal. We always look at what the student needs first, that way I know the best way to help. This way we make the best use of the time.
We first discuss what the problem might be. Is the subject matter unclear, are you missing the basic knowledge needed to continue learning, do you not have enough exercises or do you not know how to go about it all? Depending on that, I determine the strategy needed to achieve results in the long run.
I am someone who is patient and understanding. The most important thing for me is that the student feels comfortable, only then we can make progress together. This way I take away the fear of making mistakes, and the student achieves a better command of the language.
Are you afraid that online tutoring is difficult for concentration? No worries, my job is to keep the student attentive and keep the tutoring fun and challenging at the same time.
ps: are you from another country? During July and August I also teach French and other languages overseas. Contact me for more information.
