Cambridge English Lessons and Proofreading services

Hello, I am an English tutor spending some time in Fribourg before returning to the UK in September. I offer fun, interesting and tailored classes to help you improve your English as quickly as possible. I am also fluent in French and German and so can explain things in these languages too if need be! I also offer proof reading and editing services. If you are a uni student, let me know and I'll be sure to give you a large discount, I know it's tough for students!
I have a BA in Modern and Medieval Languages from the University of Cambridge, so I'm pretty used to the challenges of learning languages and I'll be glad to help you in your own language learning journey!

Whether at school age, to improve your knowledge or simply to practice the language, I will be happy to help you in French or in English!

The best way to learn a language is to practice it over and over again! Whether through conversation or playful games, radio or books!

My mothertongue is french, I'm from Jura and I moved in Friborg because of the university. I always loved french and so I had also the chance to write for a newspaper. Beside that, I went to Germany and to USA for improving my languages skills and that is why I know what does it mean to learn a new language and to keep practicing it! I would love to help you if I can :)

Effective teaching. Lots of tips to be able to better master and better learn a language. A very good follow-up of the student as well as a lot of support and encouragement.
The progress of learning largely depends on the student's motivation and the pace at which he/she feels most comfortable continuing.

The learning of the English and German language is done in a proactive and stimulating way, learning via the active way with simulation and exercise in order to obtain optimal results after a more or less short period of learning, through the grammar and vocabulary in order to learn the real language used by the English and German populations.
Regarding chemistry lessons, learning through visualization with contextual settings and explanations accompanied by examples is necessary to fully understand. Teach the student to get into the habit of doing his exercises and to understand the statements so that he is able to do them alone.

Hello !
Having acquired my Federal Maturity certificate by correspondence in 2021 (all courses learned self-taught), I can accompany a student in learning the branches of the Maturity but also with regard to administrative aspects. Especially to manage the registration for the Federal Maturity by correspondence which requires a lot of time and different papers. Having already been there, I can gladly help you and save you hours of trying to find information from right to left.
I can of course also help you in writing a Maturity work.

I have at my disposal several books and exercise books from the EPSU (School of preparation and university support) specially written for the federal maturity. They are very complete. I know they are very expensive and I can gladly lend them for exam preparation. I also have several books and documents used in the gymnasium and especially old Federal Maturity exams from the years 2015 to 2020 that I had also bought. So I have the necessary equipment to give quality lessons and exercises.

I did my Maturité with a specific option in Economics and Law and a complementary option in Philosophy.
My strong subjects are economics, physics, French and English but I also do very well in the other subjects.
