Language Learning Coach- Learn how to learn a language, use it with ease and have great conversations

“I feel stuck”

These words I hear again and again, from beginners to advanced.

The majority of students who come to me are frustrated.

They spent many years studying languages at school. They’ve spent both their time and lots of money.

Only to find themselves still struggling to form a sentence. Still struggling to be able to understand a native speaker.

If you’re here then I’m assuming you share some of these same struggles.

You get confused trying to memorize grammar rules, remember vocabulary, and makes sentances. You don’t know how to learn every day. You get distracted and then you feel too tired to keep going.

Believe it or not, I’ve been there too and to be honest, it sucks


to have another language is to possess a second soul
Charlemage


Now, I want you to trust me on your language journey

Imagine finally knowing exactly what to do when you sit at your desk to learn a language.

Imagine knowing how to learn grammar, how to remember vocabulary and make it stick, how to speak, and how to write beautiful sentences.
Imagine going on holiday somewhere and interacting with locals. Laughing, eating, dancing and living life in a different language.

About Me

I LOVE language learning.

I teach writing, listening, reading, grammar, but I focus particularly on speaking. A very important skill that you can't learn from a book.

I have many hobbies, including: art, movies and literature. I have such great recommedations from my students it´s difficult to keep up sometimes.

I teach in English for an immersion experience, but I can help in Spanish/French.

Simon is a very good teacher who knows how to understand the needs of my teenage son, adapt to his level and interests to help him progress. He encourages and corrects with great kindness. I really appreciate the autonomy of my 15-year-old son on these online courses and the follow-up that Simon gives me as a parent. And his grades in high school are already improving!

Fantastic teacher!
You can trust Simon with your eyes closed! He managed to motivate and help my 16 year old son in his learning of English. Based on my son's tastes, he helps him feel more comfortable speaking and works with him on grammar through exercises adapted to him. Simon invested a lot of time to enable my son to progress by sending him appropriate sheets to repeat every day between each lesson. All this kindness helps my son to motivate himself even more to learn a language which at the beginning was not easy for him. Call Simon, you will not be disappointed! My son loves his lessons...and believe me it was not easy...

Learn European Portuguese with me! Private classes tailored to your needs and pace.
Hi! If you want to learn Portuguese of Portugal I can help you with that! I offer classes that are tailored to your needs, pace and interests! I teach about pronunciation, grammar, expressions/sayings, culture and more. I use exercises, books, games and presentations in order to create an interactive, fun and easy way to learn the language. I also try to include Portuguese in conversations as much as possible, since the best way to learn a new language is to listen to it! Portuguese belongs to the group of Romance languages and it's one of the most spoken in the world! It has many similarities with Spanish but also a twist that makes it so interesting and different at the same time. If you're interested in learning Portuguese, no matter if just out of curiosity or to become fluent, join me in this journey!

Introduction to Russian: alphabet, basic grammar and vocabulary
Russian is one of the world languages and UN official languages. As the largest country in the world, Russia has an influential role in global economy and politics. Knowledge in Russian is beneficial for the career and studies. I am from Kazakhstan, and Russian is the second official language in my country. I definitely can say that Russian is as my native language. I am an exchange student in Oslo and will be glad to teach you some Russian.

Benoit
Private online mathematics lessons - Qualified and experienced teacher
I am a qualified and experienced mathematics tutor. Graduated from the Free University of Brussels in 2011, I started my career by teaching remedial courses in different schools in Brussels. I then specialized in individual academic support by following educational training at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. I have been giving private mathematics lessons daily for over ten years. The students who follow my private lessons benefit from personalized support. The first session is devoted to an in-depth assessment of the student's mathematical knowledge. The objective is to detect its weak points and understand their origin in order to adapt my courses to its needs. I develop a tailor-made remediation program for each of my students aimed at filling each of their gaps. Over the course of the sessions, the student builds a solid foundation for learning and regains self-confidence. At the same time, I help him acquire a work methodology that allows him to gradually become autonomous in his studies. I have a perfect knowledge of the mathematics program of the College and the High School (from the Sixth to the Terminale). During my formative years, I studied and developed many techniques that make it easier to learn math. The strength of my pedagogical approach lies in my ability to explain in a simple way everything that the student finds complicated. I am passionate about this job because it gives me the opportunity to guide dropout students on the path to success. It is a real pleasure to see them evolve and come to terms with the fantastic world of mathematics. I provide my private lessons in Limoges (at the student's home) or remotely (online via the internet). My distance learning courses take place on an interactive online whiteboard. This board is specially designed to promote student/teacher interaction on the internet. Thanks to this educational tool, my online courses are as effective as home courses. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to take advantage of it.
