School support and English courses, Art History, French etc. by Graduated in English and Art History at the University of Geneva

From 33 £ /h

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).

Practice leads to perfection

Unless you learned to speak French when you were a child, it is difficult when you don't speak it fluently to pass for a French speaker. However, this does not prevent you from learning to speak it correctly, because it is well known that a language spoken with a foreign accent is an asset of seduction! Although it may seem complicated, learning a new language is always fun and beneficial, so it is important to practice as much as possible and above all not to give up. Take every opportunity you are given to speak the language and listen to French as soon as possible. And remember: practice leads to perfection!

I offer personalized courses according to the student needs (travelling, living abroad, etc.) I prepare for exams such as the DELPH. A typical lesson for an intermediate level consists mainly of speaking, and grammar is learned through repetition and natural acquisition. A summary of the lesson is given at the end of the course. I also recommend tools like movies or other podcasts. Online courses are usually done via google meet. I also have lessons on the phone or via WhatsApp. I accept all levels.

My profile: native French speaker and FLE teacher, I also speak English and Swedish. I have been teaching since 2013 as a freelancer, I also give classes to small groups in companies. I am also a visual artist, musician and author of two novels.

The course depends on the needs of the student. I can support a student with homework or exam preparation. It is also possible to give private lessons to learn or improve this language. To do this, I like to work with a book that allows us to do exercises. If desired, I can also search for texts, videos, etc. more advanced to work with in progress. I also have experience with children who are not yet in school. It is possible to make a "course" with many games in order to learn the language in a more playful way.

In 7 years of teaching experience, I've learned that the key to success when learning and new language lies in collaboration between the student and the teacher. As such, I favor a collaborative rather than hierarchical approach during my classes.

When it comes to teaching methods, I adapt to the specific needs of each student. Rather than imposing a predefined method, I first seek to understand how the student works, his or her strengths and weaknesses, and learning preferences. The aim is to work together to develop an optimal learning method that suits both student and teacher.

Looking to pick up a new language? Or maybe you've watched The Crown and want to speak like the Queen of England? Look no further! As a native speaker of English - and fluent speaker of Spanish and French - I can put myself in your shoes and help you chat, read and sound like a Brit, only using the best and most natural sounding language. What’s more, I have a wealth of experience teaching English in France and Argentina, can accommodate all levels of English and will tailor my lessons based on your specific needs and interests. The best part: as a Specialised Translation Masters student at UniGe, I’m always around Uni-Mail and Champel, meaning I can come to you, we can meet in the middle or we can hop on a Zoom call! The choice is yours. Now that you’ve found your teacher, the only question is...when would you like to get started?

Send me a message with any questions or queries and I’ll get back to you ASAP!

Best wishes,

Robin

Currently training for my French as a Foreign Language (FLE) diploma, I support children and adults in their French language learning. I lead homework help sessions with the Geneva Red Cross and have provided international tutoring. I offer both academic support and adult education courses designed to promote professional integration.
I offer French lessons in Geneva, both in person and online, tailored to all levels and profiles. My teaching method is based on the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) and places the learner at the heart of the process: each lesson is co-created according to their level, objectives and expectations, for meaningful learning that progresses at their own pace.

After six years of multidisciplinary teaching at all academic levels in France and Switzerland, I am seeking to focus on a new type of teaching and more personalized support in order to provide assistance to new learners from different backgrounds. :)

The objective of the courses is to consolidate knowledge while promoting the acquisition of new skills, all in a caring environment where patience, dialogue and progression are essential pillars.

Making courses a space for research and optimization of methods according to profiles is the key to achieving the best results while enjoying the time spent sharing discussions!

Learning should never be seen as a chore for a good understanding of the elements to be possible, and memory, like any other tool, must be exercised to become effective.
