French and English lessons with an Oxford University qualified teacher

From 23 £ /h

Hello!

I'm Sylvain, a Native French and English second language speaker. I lived in France 21 years, 10 years in the UK and 3 years in Asia.
I passed my Post-Graduate Certificate in Education this year studying in the University of Oxford. I also hold a UK Masters with Commendation in Music, Film and Media and a French undergraduate degree in Audiovisual.
I have been teaching for 3 years in Ghana, Scotland, Hong Kong and the UK to students aged 2 to 45 years old, in schools, learning centres and as a personal tutor.
I have also worked in the corporate world in London for 8 years and know the reality of job market, job applications and private sector culture.

Respect, honesty, kindness and efficiency are very important to me and I want each of my student to become better in languages but also in other areas so I will share my personal insights about methodology and thinking.

Get in touch so we can work on setting up a plan to reach your goals.

Hope to see you soon!

Would you like to learn English in a quiet environment with a native British speaker? These courses are for everyone: beginners, intermediate, or advanced, all ages and levels, general English or business English.

The emphasis is on your pronunciation, and I tailor each lesson to your needs.

I have over 20 years of experience in business, design, and teaching. I am available to teach you immediately.

I speak French, but the course will be mainly in English.

Please check my profile for availability.

A 20-year-old French student, I offer French lessons at all levels.

After a scientific baccalaureate (good honors), I worked in Spain and England (level C1) and am now a student in anthropology and history. I can therefore explain French in English or Spanish.

It will be a question of establishing what the student wishes to learn and / or improve in order to then do exercises in relation to his interests which will allow him to become autonomous.

Are you looking for a qualified English teacher from England? You have the possibility to improve your English while being supervised by your teacher. You can work on your grammar, writing, speaking and pronunciation. Are you desperate to pass your exams, prepare yourself for an interview or correct an essay? Or do you want to go to an English school or follow an English programme? The teacher is open to your requests.
Maybe you want to share your English lesson with some of your friends? It is possible to form a group at a reduced price, tell me with whom you would like to form a group. ;-) If not, the lessons are also individualised (private).

All levels are welcome (beginners to university students)! The teacher will be happy to receive you. Lessons can also be delivered online, students even learn better when lessons are given via Skype (the teacher takes notes for you online), technology is so cool! :-)

Do you have a question? Don't worry, the teacher will be happy to answer you. Lessons usually last 50 minutes.

I have five years of experience, during which I gave private and group lessons, and I have a Master's degree in FLE.
I have a very good sense of teaching. I personalize the courses according to the needs of the learner, their way of learning and their objectives.
I am very happy to share my taste for learning languages with my learners.

I adapt my lessons according to your objectives. I teach grammar orally and through conversation, to be as close as possible to a real communication situation.
I also offer exercises to do at home, to consolidate what was learned during the lesson.

I adapt my lessons depending on your goal.
I teach grammar more with oral exercises and conversation, to be as close as possible of a real communication situation. Then I suggest you to do more exercises at home, so that not to forgive what we did during the class.

Good morning! Buenas dias!
Delighted Michaël, teacher on the internet for more than two years. I would like to offer you a fun interaction that complements the school method. I have traveled around the globe which has led me to speak several languages and also to work in particular in England, Australia, Spain or the Dominican Republic.
Basically I start the lessons by talking with my students about a bit of everything (in order to enrich the vocabulary). Depending on the level I adapt with files that are sent during the course. I also use the Callan method which works on repetition in order to properly assimilate useful words and phrases.
All in a positive way :)
Tell me your availability if you're interested for a first lesson. At worst it will have made you practice, at best you improve!
Regards

I am a student who lived abroad during my youth. I was lucky enough to be able to improve my level of English, which I would like to pass on to others.
I have now mastered this language for about 10 years, so I am starting to teach it to others.

Every learner is unique, and it is with this conviction that I approach teaching French. My courses are tailor-made to each student's needs and goals, whether it's to consolidate grammatical foundations, enrich vocabulary, refine pronunciation, or prepare for an official exam like the DELF.

A session always begins with a moment of exchange, an informal dialogue that allows the language to be reawakened and previously covered concepts to be reactivated. This moment is essential: it builds confidence, creates a bond, and promotes natural immersion. Then comes the time for structured learning. Depending on the day's theme, I introduce the concept through a variety of mediums: an article excerpt, a video, an audio recording, or even a thought-provoking image.

Far from rigid teaching, my classes are structured around dynamic practical exercises. Role-playing, simulations of real conversations, interactive exercises, and even analysis of authentic documents allow students to appropriate the language with spontaneity and enjoyment. Production, whether written or oral, occupies a central place in my approach: it is by daring to speak and write that we truly progress.

Between each session, I make sure to provide personalized follow-up. A course recap, sheets reviewing key points, and tailored exercises are sent to reinforce what has been learned. The goal isn't to pile up rules, but to anchor them in a vibrant and meaningful practice.

My goal is simple: to make French a language that we learn with curiosity and confidence, in a caring and motivating environment.

I use fun and creative methods to make English lessons varied and motivating, combining written, oral, and reading. I encourage active participation from my students, adapting topics to their interests and learning pace. My experience in middle schools in England and with young children allows me to manage different levels with personalized teaching.
For reluctant students, I incorporate games to encourage participation. I can also follow the curriculum of students in school and help them with their homework by making lessons interesting and fun. For very young children, I adapt activities through gentle immersion through games, stories, and vocabulary related to their interests. Finally, I focus on specific objectives such as tests or exams. My goal is to make learning enjoyable, effective, and tailored to each individual.
