About Me

Having always loved to learn, my school facilities have always depended much on the teachers I had. For me, appreciating a subject depends very much on the way it is taught, which is why I try to make my classes as lively and enjoyable as possible.
Being still a student, I know enough what can be blamed on a teacher and make sure not to reproduce these manias. It is necessary that the course is fluid and realized in a studious but relaxed atmosphere so as not to have to count the minutes which can appear very long sometimes.

Learn or review Spanish culture and language

23.96 £ /h

Of Spanish origin and having always had great facility in this language, I would like to help those who begin. The first approach to language is always decisive and strongly influences learning, so I would like to make it as pleasant and attractive as possible.

An example of a course:
mathematics - Primary level"

Course objective: To help primary school students strengthen their mathematics skills and gain confidence in this area.

Duration: 1 hour

Course content :

Review of Basic Concepts: Begin with a brief review of fundamental concepts.
Practical exercises: Provide a series of practical exercises adapted to the student's level to apply the revised concepts. These exercises can include problem solving, interactive math games, and thinking challenges.
Explanation of new concepts: Introduce new mathematical concepts according to the specific needs of the student. For example, addition and subtraction of multi-digit numbers, multiplication, division, decimal fractions, etc.
Put into practice: Apply new concepts through concrete examples and additional exercises. Encourage the student to ask questions and express their difficulties for better understanding.
Recap and Action Plan: Recap the points covered during the lesson and identify areas where the student may need additional support. Establish an action plan for future lessons to continue to strengthen the student's mathematical skills.
This course is designed to be interactive, engaging and tailored to the specific needs of each student. The main goal is to provide a positive learning environment where the student feels comfortable asking questions and exploring mathematics at their own pace.
I try to adapt my lessons as much as possible to the tastes of my students (Pokémon, Naruto, etc.) to make them want to learn.

The form of the lessons adapts to the specific requests, needs and problems of the student.

It may include one or more of the following:
- help with homework
- proofreading/corrections of written work
- revisions for exams, essays, courses
- help with presentations, talks etc.
- learning English through exercises and/or conversations

I also generally help with:
- organization of a work / review plan, with creation of a calendar, division of labor etc.
- memorization: different techniques and advice
- the methodology: how to be efficient in your work and in your reading, how to take good notes etc.
- concentration and stress management
- general advice

My studies at university allow me to have access to rare and useful resources for learning English, which can enrich the courses. They also helped me to be more efficient in researching and citing useful sources for courses, dissertations, presentations etc.

Lessons can be given at the student's home, in a municipal library, in a UNIGE building, or by webcam (for example via Jitsi, which is free, practical, and has always worked well with my students).

I provide engaging materials such as slides, images, short videos, music, games, and real-life texts - no boring worksheets.

📝 About me

A great adventurer at heart, I was fortunate enough to live for over five years in English-speaking countries, where I communicated exclusively in English. These experiences allowed me to acquire a natural command of the language with a typical English accent and a keen understanding of English-speaking culture.

Passionate about teaching and learning, I earned my TEFL qualification to teach English internationally. Since then, I've enjoyed supporting students of all ages and levels—whether for academic support, improvement, or simply to regain confidence in speaking.

My classes always take place in a good mood, with patience and kindness, so that each student progresses at their own pace while enjoying learning.

My course begins by identifying the topics to be covered (first lesson: review of past exams/assignments, questions the student has, etc.). Then, we review any missing theory, and finally, we redo the exercises that are causing difficulty. Each subsequent lesson will start with one or two exercises from the previous session to check if the theory has been properly understood.

Mathematics: calculations, algebra, equations, geometry, trigonometry, logarithms and statistics
