    Matteo
    Philo student gives Italian lessons for all levels
    I am an Italian foreign student in Paris. I reached my Bac in a Liceo Classico, equivalent to Bac L. I am flexible to discuss and change my methodology according to the objectives, the study methods and the particularities of each one. For a more oral study I think it will be more useful to work on pronunciation and listening using tools such as music, radio, etc ... For a study aimed at writing we will work on grammar, the structure of language and reading, progressing with time. If you have any question do not hesitate to contact me.

    Valencian reinforcement for high school and EvAU students
    Through these classes, you will not only considerably improve your grades (we all know how frustrating and maddening it can be to pass Valencian), but you will also learn to value the language and acquire a competent level. These lessons are dedicated to all those students of Baccalaureate (both first and second year) who want to improve in this subject, as well as to those who have already decided to take the EvAU exam. We will focus in depth on all those aspects that need more attention from the student: oral comprehension and expression, written comprehension and expression, grammar and syntax, spelling, vocabulary and arrogance and literature (using a personalized, dynamic and enjoyable methodology and approach). Likewise, we will try to improve all those study and learning techniques and tools that we have at our disposal in order to achieve good results in a short time. EvAU students will also receive constant support and feedback when completing each section of the exam in the most optimal way possible. Let's work together to get the 10!

    French private lessons by university graduate in Letters
    Holder of a Master's degree in Letters and endowed with a solid experience in private lessons, I provide French lessons for students wishing to: - consolidate their bases in grammar, spelling - improve their language skills (allophone students) - improve their speaking skills (conversation classes) -profect the written expression - prepare for ECR exams - prepare for the written examinations at the end of the studies (maturity, certificate of completion) - help with the writing of works of maturity (or other works of end of studies), of dissertation - work on argumentative texts - acquire a method to analyze literary texts - learn how to perform bibliographic research The course material is a Google Docs document that I create in which my explanations, possible links, exercises appear. By reading it regularly, progress will be faster. It can also be used in addition to other documents (files printed by school teachers and/or books) and has many advantages: automatic updating, downloadable on tablets and smartphones, simultaneous monitoring of what is writing. For help with writing: The objective is above all to acquire effective tools. The student will thus be able to learn to structure his ideas, argue coherently (and convincingly) and enrich his vocabulary. It is essential for me to have written work from the student between each lesson. For analyzes of oral literary texts: In order to optimize the time available (and to put ourselves in conditions closest to oral exams), we choose together an extract from a work that the student will have previously prepared before the lesson. This would take around 20 minutes at most, and ideally just a little before the meeting time. If necessary, I have the habit of taking a paragraph at random which would serve as a basis for analyzing a passage. For the corrections of end of studies work: so that the meeting with the student is at the most profitable, I ask him to send me his writings before the meeting. Apart from my presence with the student, any course involves a preparation time before and after the lesson, including the work that I correct. My goal is to design an individualized course, so I take the time to write detailed comments on corrected work or tips to ensure maximum success for everyone. For example, an editorial correction can easily be the subject of a detailed commentary of 4 typewritten pages. For adults (FLE): In order to optimally prepare the first ones, I take the initiative to inform myself in advance of their objectives / expectations. Whether to practice speaking in everyday life, the professional world or to practice oral presentations, I prepare either PPT or technical sheets in advance that I send by mail ( after booking on the website). The other alternative is to make a PV of the course that I send (or that I print). Giving importance to keeping a written record on the one hand to better memorize the topics covered, on the other hand to better assimilate the spelling. Of a general nature, a concrete situation that responds to the learner's needs is the starting point. From this situation, I address the essential grammatical points.

    French for all level, including IB French with a native French speaker
    I am a native-speaking french teacher, who has achieved a high 6 in IB french A level, self-taught. I believe in teaching french (and languages in general) through practice: we will speak french in every class while learning about grammar, and practising writing skills. If you are an Ib student, I can help you prepare for your exams, IAs and IOs and achieve the best possible marks. Having lived in France for a major part of my life, I gladly discuss french culture, history and literature with you if you are interested. I am all for making classes as enjoyable as possible !!! A little more about me, I have tutored a few students in French in the last few years, and I graduated from the IB in 2021 with 39 points in ETIS (ESPOO). I am to enter the University of Warwick in a Politics, Economics and Philosophy degree in the end of September.

    1- Customization: In either, an individual or group class, the lessons will be tailored to your needs, your time, and your interests. 2- Stress-free: I'm going to motivate you until you forget you are learning! Do you know that type of “dry content” -grammar, vocabulary, conjugations, etc.-? You are going to learn without noticing it if you are open to make mistakes and laugh! We are going to focus is on the satisfaction of feeling capable of acquiring a new and vibrant skill. And THEN is where the magic happens: confidence is the new protagonist of the journey. 3- Culture: Based on the fact that every language is a living entity, all my lessons’ content is linked to social and cultural factors. Spanish, a widespread language, offers such a great cultural variety, in so many areas, that those who immerse in this language can’t avoid embracing empathy. 4- Love: My own personal goal for all my students is to fall in love with Spanish. I want to spark in them the desire to continue developing the language as a skill for their lifetime, not only for a test. 5- Fun: Teaching Spanish is my passion. When you put your heart and your biggest effort there’s only ONE result: a happy ending.
