Mikael has a vast experience as an excecutive from his professional background. He will help you reach your objectives and will tailor the lessons to your needs. He is helping me to be more confident to speak in a professional environment.
Discursive practice of commercial and everyday English. Mikael insists on the excellence necessary for the pronunciation of each word. He adapts the course to my needs as well as my vocabulary expectations using various newspaper clippings. In summary, an interactive course with a great teacher!

Amélie
Cours de Français, Néerlandais, Anglais, Mathématiques, Histoire, Relations Internationales, Droit, Sciences et Géographie.
I am a Belgian (Flemish) and French student who has recently completed a Master's degree in International Law at the University of Amsterdam. I completed my Bachelor's degree in International Relations at the University of Geneva (magna cum laude) and also spent six months on exchange at UCSB (University of California, Santa Barbara). Additionally, I attended an international high school in France for my secondary education, where I specialized in sciences and achieved a score of 18/20 on the final scientific baccalaureate. The classes at this school were taught in French, english, dutch, and spanish. Here is an overview of my previous tutoring experience: 2021/2022: I worked at "bijlesthuis," a Dutch tutoring institution, where I primarily taught french, dutch, and english to adult learners seeking to improve their language skills. During the same period, I also provided classes to other students through Apprentus. 2021: Through Apprentus and other websites, I assisted several younger students (ages 5-15) in Bern and Geneva, helping them improve their skills in subjects such as math and french. 2017/2020: I worked for three years at a tutoring institution in Geneva called ARA, where I primarily taught french, mathematics, and english. During this time, I also spent two years working at a private school called Florimont, where I supported students aged 11-16 across various subjects by assisting them with their homework. I can teach French, Dutch, and English, and I thoroughly enjoy teaching and assisting students in their progress and acquisition of new skills. As a person, I am flexible, calm, and positive. I am excited to meet you and look forward to working with you! Amélie

INTENSIVE English (CONVERSATIONS) / medical, legal / for exams BEC Higher, BEC Vantage, CFE, CAE, EPC, IELTS, TOEFL, LNAT, TOLES
I have 17 years of teaching experience in New York (at the School of Visual Arts), European Union and Switzerland. I am a native speaker of the English language who grew up in Singapore, South Africa and New York. 598 of my 600 students passed their CFE, CAE, CPE, IELTS, TOEFL, LCCI 1-4, LNAT and TOLES tests by reaching the score they wanted. I have prepared more than 80 students for job interviews. I corrected their CVs as well as their motivation letters. We simulated job interviews and I corrected their job interviews recorded on Skype or via conference calls. They all found the job of their dreams and this, for the most part, on their first try. All teaching materials - lexicons, articles from the English and American press, podcasts, TED talks, YouTube videos, as well as electronic books dealing with grammar, business vocabulary.

Private English lessons - conversation / exam preparation
Having completed a Billing English maturity and lived in England and the United States for 1 year, I am very comfortable with this language. Now I am studying at the Ecole Hôtelière de Lausanne in the English-speaking section, and this semester I am doing an internship in Geneva in an international company, where I work in English. I would be happy to help you better master this important language that is English.

Julie
French, English, physics, chemistry, earth sciences and life
During these courses, it is above all an academic reinforcement to allow you to acquire the basics in each of the subjects. If the basics are already acquired we can go further to aim to obtain a higher mark during your exams

Victoire
Private lessons - History, Economics, Maths, French, English - Primary to Maturity
To improve in a subject, you just need to know the rules and the rest becomes child's play. Having been a recent student, I adapt to the person and personalize my course. Pedagogy is the most important, so I try to make my course come alive! I had an ES baccalaureate (economics/sociology) with honors, a double bachelor's degree in History and Economics with honors and am in a master's degree in visual arts at HEAD. This course is intended for students, from primary to mature. Also for adults.

I give math lessons for students in primary, cycles or college.
I have a good pedagogy and easy to pass on information in a pleasant atmosphere. My course illustrated with lots of examples and exercises to facilitate understanding and memorization. - Course of the sessions: The sessions begin with a reminder of the notions seen previously then an explanation of the course taught at school then a direct application of the new notions and finally assignment of the homework to be done for the session which will follow. The methods used are effective through experiments with other students.
