I offer you my services in order to make you truly effective orally / in writing in English. If you have to use English for your professional activity and you don't feel comfortable. If you are tired of being spotted right away as the French. If you still don't know when to use the present perfect / preterite, I'm here to help and take you forward. * Linguist by training and author of school textbook in this capacity. I am not that young student who got a good mark in the Baccalaureate or that other who is supposedly bilingual. I have been teaching as a teacher in the National Education since 1995 and I can tell you that teaching cannot be improvised. It is not an activity that we do "like that". I offer you my expertise and my experience. To have 10/20 in the Baccalaureate, it is enough to have the A2 level (which is theoretically expected at the end of 3rd year) so I let you imagine the desperation of future engineers who must obtain at least 750 in the TOEIC! (the equivalent of level B2) * Daily monitoring possible via internet. * Specialized in "phonology": intonation, word accent, connections, oral grammar. * Adaptation to all levels: from college to post-Bac including high school. => Post-bac: preparation for TOEIC, TOEFL, iELTS, Cambridge First-Certificate, Advanced Certificate. => CPGE: translation, essay, "fluency". => Enunciative Linguistics (CAPES) - Didactics of English. => Orals and writings of the grandes écoles such as the ENA. => Orals and writings from business schools (Tremplin-Passerelle ...). => English for medical interns.
***** My availability varies according to the slots reserved by the pupils / students. To gain efficiency, I will send you a link to my "google agenda". You will be able to position our sessions more quickly ***** Hello, I offer you my expertise and experience to (re) upgrade you in English. I can intervene at the following levels: - School: * (primary school: initiation) => Cambridge tests 'Starters - Movers - Flyers' & others. * (college-high school) => remediation / upgrading in grammar + other language activities such as Oral / Writing Comprehension or Continuous Speaking / Interaction) - Superior (CPGE, IEP prep, TOEFL, iELTS, Cambridge First Certificate, Advanced Certificate ...) (Preparation for tests such as "Tremplin-Passerelle-Passerelle2- Ecricome" ...) (English for Interns in medicine ...) (Linguistics / phonology / didactics for the English CAPES ... or other competition like the CRPE) - I accompany and have accompanied many adults who needed to be / become truly successful in speaking / writing in English as part of their professional activities (fluency, accent reduction, grammar. ...) or as part of resuming studies. Note that I am not this young student who had a good mark in the Baccalaureate or this other who is supposedly bilingual. I am a linguist by training and author of a textbook in this capacity. I have been teaching as a teacher in the National Education since 1995. Teaching cannot be improvised. It is not an activity that we do "like that". I offer you the fruit of my expertise and my experience as well as the perspective of an educational professional who knows the system perfectly from the "inside". By the way, did you know that to have 10/20 in the Baccalaureate, it is enough to have level A2 (which is theoretically expected at the end of 3rd year) so I let you imagine the despair of students who are starting higher studies and who learn that they will have to obtain at least 750 in the TOEIC! (the equivalent of level B2!) to see their diploma approved. 2 tips for students: "your TOEIC / IELTS score, it is from L1 that you must prepare it" "if you want to be able to write - English read, understood and spoken in your CV - well it is also from L1 that you must train yourself to speak English, to read in English and of course to write. * Daily monitoring possible via the internet: to learn modern foreign languages, it is always more profitable to work a little each day. It is possible to consider placing slots of 15 or 20 minutes of intensive work on one type of activity several times a week. (See the "memorization" video in the 'Surfonsdoc Orléans-Tours' channel on youtube) -> Look for "debbinghaus curve" on google. * Each course is prepared according to your personal needs. Feedback is always given at the end of the session. * One of the fields in which I specialize is "phonology": intonation, word stress, connections ... In short, everything that relates to oral grammar. If you are tired of being immediately spotted as the man in the video "the i rabbit (you will find it in a few clicks on youtube)) See you soon! Please do not hesitate to contact me for further details.

For a first lesson, many were eager to have the next one.

Mark is very experienced and alternates theory and practice for complete learning. It adapts perfectly to the student's level and perfectly targets areas of progress. In addition, he is punctual and organized, while being flexible if necessary

I will happily give Mark 10 out of 5 stars! Mark is passionate and very attentive. I had to deal with different private teachers, but I had never seen a person so invested, human and available. From my experience, usually either the teacher is very human, but the lessons are cluttered and not very specialized, or the teacher is erudite and truly master of his subject but less human and less educational (with less fun learning). This is the first time I've seen the qualities of these two profiles combined in one person! How lucky to have found it! It really makes learning easier in the sense that it really takes my level into account and creates courses that are more than suited to me. Mark doesn't just rely on his (undeniable!) expertise and distill knowledge, no, he prepares each of his courses to best adapt them to my needs (even creating personal course sheets for me on Word!) I am more than delighted with this collaboration! I have already unlocked certain things in just 2 lessons and I am looking forward to the rest of my learning. I was starting to lose hope of being able to improve my level of English (which has been stagnating for years), but that's it, with Mark, I now have the certainty that I will be able to advance to a much higher level! Merci pour tout! Looking forward for the next class! Joel
