Very friendly and informative teacher 👍
I am a qualified English teacher and I have been teaching English for five years. I specialise in teaching English as a second language (ESL) but I also teach native English speakers. I have taught hundreds of students from all different nationalities and backgrounds from the age of 3 to 65 including British, Spanish, Romanian, Polish, Chinese, Ukrainian and Nepalese to name a few.
I have helped my students achieve their individual goals such as passing their GCSEs, A-Levels, IELTS exams, Functional Skills exams and Citizenship tests, helping to write dissertations and theses improving their grammar, building confidence in speaking English, delivering a presentation, working on pronunciation, improving their writing skills and writing a CV.
Many of my students have excelled their expected results and I have a 100% pass rate with students I have mentored for exams. I’d like to describe myself as a friendly, patient, fun and enthusiastic teacher that can help you not only build up your confidence in English, but also gain the skills you need to achieve your goal!
Hello! I am an English, Drama and Functional Skills teacher and I have been teaching children and adults from all kinds of backgrounds for seven years. My experience includes teaching English for the British Army, teaching English to students in China and teaching online for universities and colleges. I have a friendly, patient and relaxed approach with my students and lessons are tailored to the student's individual needs, rather than pushing them too far too fast. I believe that every person can learn and achieve anything as long as they have a patient teacher and lots of encouragement!
The subjects I teach are as follows: GCSE, A-Level and Undergraduate level English Language, English Literature, Drama, ICT, Geography and Performing Arts, English as a second language, IELTS, Functional Skills Maths and English, CV Writing, Employability, Creative Writing and I also prepare candidates for citizenship tests.

Private teacher gives French lessons to foreigners
With a literary baccalaureate and a BTS in executive secretarial studies, I worked for over 30 years in large international groups, as a secretary and then as an accounting manager. I trained many foreign interns and helped them to integrate professionally.
Recently, I gave online French lessons to an English-speaking job seeker. I corrected her resume, helped her write cover letters, and practiced for job interviews.
I will be happy to help any non-French speaking person improve their spoken and written French in their professional or personal integration in France.
My goal is to make you love French and become independent by learning to correct yourself. I adapt to your level and your needs.
My method: lots of oral conversations and written exercises corrected and explained if necessary.

PROFESSIONAL SUPPORT IN HIS JOB SEARCH / CAREER TRANSITION, ESPECIALLY DURING COVID19
Adapted to each case and need, the objective is support in accessing a job, from the search for departure to the signing of the contract:
- After the search and selection of relevant advertisements, establish and illustrate your transversal skills profile then create an attractive CV and write a striking cover letter highlighting your professional background
- stand out in the preparation of their interviews, from oral presentation to expression through appropriate body language. Interview simulation & video analysis filmed if necessary.
- Identify your values, promote your professional project / your assets and strengths but also work on areas for improvement in order to find new momentum in your career.
Note that during the videoconference session, all the notes are transcribed in the chat so that you can access them at any time when you wish.
Statistically, the progression following these private sessions is quickly noticeable, from 2 sessions. (study 2020)
PLACES :
- Locations: Geneva - Lausanne - Friborg - Neuchâtel - Montreux - Basel - Sion - Sierre - Morges - Bienne.
But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (example: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (example: chat notes that can be read later).
In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to suit everyone perfectly, take place in a very optimal way and generate a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). That is why, at your request, I continue to offer this option. Take good care of yourself and yours.

Guidance in (scientific) writing and communication.
Like no other, I know how difficult it can be to structure a research or project in a short time. You want to distinguish main issues from side issues and be in the final report to-the-point in communicating the results.
From MBO level 2 I went on to a doctorate in astrophysics at the University of Amsterdam. During this path, I have written hundreds of reports, published 6 scientific articles and presented my findings hundreds of times both informally and formally.
In addition, I have been a successful thesis supervisor of 3 bachelor students and 1 master's student.
I would like to help you get the best out of yourself with the help of my knowledge and experience. However, I do not want to do this with a leadership mentality, but from an advisory mentality in which we can put together as equals a nice end product that we both support. I can offer concrete support for your research/project in:
- Setup and planning
- Doing literature study
- Quality assurance
- Presentation and structure/content
- Popularizing the topics with catchy texts
- Review with a critical look
- Give layout and design input
- And much more
Do you think I can help you or do you want to know more? I would love to hear from you!
