About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
In a studious atmosphere, my lessons are adapted to the personality and educational characteristics of each learner. The material is structured written and oral production, phonetics, specialty French, FOU, grammar, syntax, vocabulary, literature, history, originality and any learning project. My several years of experience give me the opportunity to offer my electronic-audiovisual material to all my students as well as current press documents. Screen sharing is the most useful tool, as I write the entire lesson during the session. At the end of the course I send the word pages to the student's email. The pupil could print or not, it is up to him alone to see that. The course begins with a small examination-revision of the last lesson. Homework should be prepared and I correct either on photo or orally, highlighting the learner's difficulties. At the end of the month there is the month check to consolidate what we have already learned. These are methods from large publishing houses such as Hachette, Clé, Nathan, Didier, Trait d'Union, Sorbonne University, Aristote University, Kapodistrian University, Ciep, which are offered in PDF as well as their audios. Many times there are press articles or videos on the news which can trigger very interesting discussions and comments. Often there are discussions on TV, movies, series or TV news in Greek or French.

My name is Marie and I am a private teacher of French and modern Greek. I have been teaching French for 30 years as well as modern Greek which is my mother tongue. Passionate about literature, history, pedagogy and method, I continued to study French literature at the University of the Sorbonne Paris IV. I worked at French schools in Greece and at the French institutes of Athens and Thessaloniki. I am very experienced in the preparation of FLE diplomas as well as Greek education diplomas. I prepare tailor-made courses according to the particular needs of each learner while respecting the structure of DELF, DALF, SORBONNE all levels, CCIP all options, CNED, FLS, TEF, TCF. My several stays in France as well as my work at the Acropolis Museum in Athens gave me the pleasure of teaching on webcam and in person using my own educational methods: I teach my personal method of Greek adapted for French speakers . Regarding French as a foreign language, I offer the material in PDF and audio documents for free.
A graduate of the Sorbonne Paris IV and experienced for 25 years, I offer courses at all levels online. My program also consists of preparing for the exams of the French IB program.

I have the chance to work on what I like the most in life and I am very happy to share my experience with you. I am ready to help you speak and express yourself in both French and Greek.

My methodology for other levels includes a variety of documents + books from major publishing houses, authentic sound documents, grammar exercises, animated dialogues, role plays with the learner, phonetics exercises, morphosyntax, analyzes of press articles or magazines from the same day of the real news and thus develop the side of French civilization and culture too much demanded for the DELF, DALF, SORBONNE exams.

Kevin
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.

Arianit
German Language for Beginners (Deutsch - A1 und A2)
German as a foreign language can be hard, especially regarding the grammar part. Always focusing on the structures of the sentences can be challenging and demotivating when trying to connect the sentences in a communication environment. That is why with the help of this class, you'll get more confident in building strong sentences without the stress usually involved. As a foreign speaker of German of over 3 years, there's no other person that understands the struggles better than I do. We will cover all the fundamentals with the background of grammar and syntax so that we are able to create a strong base for future advanced levels.
