Online private French lessons - 11 years of experience

I also recommend tools like movies or other podcasts. Online courses are usually done via google meet. I also have lessons on the phone or via WhatsApp. I accept all levels.

I almost never give 5 stars. So with 4 I say Alisa was very good. Good ideas for methods that might suit me, and ready to adapt the course to my needs and availability.

The methodology depends on the student needs. A typical lesson includes voice warm-up exercises. The student learns to become familiar with his voice. Then, for example, we can work on a chosen piece, improve it or interpret it with different styles. Improvisation exercises can also be on the program. It all depends on the student's goal and why they want to take lessons :) About me : I am a solo singer, pianist and guitarist. I studied the piano for 8 years at the Geneva Conservatory and singing for 5 years at the ETM school in Geneva. I also participated in many musical performances during events. Since 2013, I have been teaching singing and languages. I am also a painter, muralist and author of two novels.
Originally from Geneva, teaching French and English for more than 10 years, teaching Swedish was added to my classes a few years ago. My passion for this language and its culture and my many years spent in this country studying it intensively made me decide to make it my main objective, teaching Swedish to French speakers wanting a first approach to the language. The method is 100% personalized and depends on each person's objectives. Online or face-to-face lessons focus on speaking above all, interspersed with grammar points so that the student understands the structure of the language. Additional resources are also given to the student such as podcasts, exercises to do at home if desired, etc. The key to success is repetition.

Non-academic Latin lessons. Multilingual teacher with 9 years of experience. Pronunciation, historical linguistics, conceptual semantics.
Contrary to popular belief, learning Latin is not like learning the phone book by heart. I offer you Latin lessons that are unlike any other. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches: If you take the train back and forth every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options: 1) Learn the schedules by heart. 2) Note that the train arrives every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m. In school pedagogy, in study notebooks and in ordinary courses, it is the first approach which is adopted - in the courses that I offer you, it is the second because it is more economical and faster. My offer is aimed at both students and adults who want to learn the Latin language or deepen their knowledge without time-consuming detours through the insanities of school methods which do not produce results. Learning is easy but unlearning what has become a bad habit is extremely difficult. All the more important it is to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. With my tailor-made teaching you will accelerate your learning in a positive state of mind. I offer individual or group Latin lessons (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive sciences and in particular historical linguistics. What will not be the subject of the course: learn lists of verbs; learn lists of nouns with their gender; learn words with their translations; memory card game; doing school exercises; follow the program in a notebook; impose French grammar on the Latin language. What matters to me in particular: motivate my student and give him a learning rhythm; encourage creativity; make friends with language; letters and their sounds strengthen your memory by working on the phonological loop; teach construction plans instead of having people learn sentences by heart; explain how the language works to make my student independent as quickly as possible; breaking preconceived ideas such as the gammatical gender would have a link with the biological gender, the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, the verbs would be irregular, the declension would be random and therefore to be learned with each verb... ; place practice at the center and articulate grammar around practice. In the context of a first course, you can get a well-founded idea of my pedagogy. I look forward to meeting you.

French pronunciation training effective and fast
Practice leads to perfection Unless you learned to speak French when you were a child, it is difficult when you don't speak it fluently to pass for a French speaker. However, this does not prevent you from learning to speak it correctly, because it is well known that a language spoken with a foreign accent is an asset of seduction! Although it may seem complicated, learning a new language is always fun and beneficial, so it is important to practice as much as possible and above all not to give up. Take every opportunity you are given to speak the language and listen to French as soon as possible. And remember: practice leads to perfection!

Hello, I have been giving private lessons with a high success rate for many years. I have two children aged 9 and 15 who are in school in Switzerland and who I support, which keeps me up to date with the programme and teaching methods. I also studied in the French and American systems. Teaching is my passion and it is contagious: “Teachers who love teaching teach others to love learning.”

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
