School-level support and drop-out assistance - Geneva

School-level support and drop-out assistance

From 33.51 £ /h

Having worked for three years with teenagers with academic and social difficulties in the Parisian suburbs, I developed a sense of listening and pedagogy that allowed me to restore the taste of work and curiosity to demotivated students .

Exemplarity and discipline are the two pillars of my methodology.

I therefore offer school support for students who have lost the taste of school, or simply need a renewed motivation.

About Me

Hello,

My name is Benjamin and I want to share my curiosity and my desire to learn inexhaustible (we call inexhaustible a well that will always give water).

Are you passionate about football, chess or video games? So this will be our starting point to learn French, English, history, writing or physics!

It all starts with curiosity and envy. Then, step by step, step by step, we make progress.

I am also a music lover, and I can provide Computer Aided Music lessons (Ableton Live software). I also practice bodybuilding and am ready to provide advice and sports programs for beginners.

** CORONAVIRUS UPDATE: Courses given online! **

I am a young doctor recently graduated in Human Medicine at the University of Geneva.

Being calm and patient in nature, I try to build trust with my students to create a more relaxed environment, conducive to exchange and therefore learning courses.

For me, the understanding of a course is mainly through a structured, imaged and especially personalized learning of different subjects to enable the student to sustainably integrate the key concepts that are useful to him.

This type of contact is very important to me and is the basis of my interest and desire to teach. I believe that academic success is, of course, through learning but above all through an educational approach that takes into account several psychosocial factors that can influence children's success through an impact on their self-esteem. In my sessions, I attach great importance to identifying these factors and valuing the efforts of my students so that they become aware of their abilities and gain self-confidence.

This course is for people of all ages and backgrounds who need tutoring or who wish to deepen their knowledge of biology / medicine.

Students and future medical students accepted for regular courses and exam preparation!

Do not hesitate to contact me, I will answer you with pleasure!

➤ Learn French with a successful technique: the main objective is to acquire bases or improve your level in French (written & oral: pronunciation, comprehension, language construction, communication, conjugation, grammar & vocabulary). It is also to understand the cultural specificities of Switzerland & France.

➤ Whether it is for work or leisure, the classes are adjusted to the initial diagnosis and to your needs.

➤ The method focuses on your own goals and:

• are adjusted to your own rhythm, with (funny) oral and writing exercises
• help to improve your everyday/practical skills
• on interactivity: you learn much more quickly with private sessions and you develop listening and vocabulary skills in an effective way
• these classes are customized courses to create an environment adjusted to each person, to meet your individual needs & requirements, and to learn French effectively.

➤ Statistically, you will be able to notice that you have progressed with these private classes, after 2 or 3 classes (based on our 2023 survey).

Hello,

I'm a master 2 students at Geneva University of Art and Design proposing help for english learning, either with children, teenagers or even adults.
My mother tongue is French, but I'v been studying in a billingual master program (that turned out to be mostly English) for almost 3 years, and I am redacting my master thesis in english. I am then quite fluent in this language, though I mostly work either with popular vocabulary, or academical one. I am sure i'll be helpful with any kind of needs, or demands!

Looking forward to help you!
Cheers!

I offer tutoring courses in History and Geography, with a multidisciplinary opening that appeals to sociology, international relations or literature.

The content of the courses is adapted to the level of the learner, to his specializations and to his needs. Having learned the scientific method, I am ready to open the field of my knowledge to desired spaces and periods.

The course is aimed at high school or undergraduate students. In an associative context, I have already had the pleasure of helping students in their school careers, of adapting my method and my approach to different personalities.

What I think is most important is to provide real support by instilling a passion for history and geography. Two human sciences in constant renewal!

Of Swiss nationality, I am a student at the University of Geneva, in the master's Russia - Middle Europe of the GSI (Global Studies Institute), a multidisciplinary course which attracts geopolitics and contemporary history on a given space: the ex. USSR.

A territory that I had the opportunity to explore as part of my internships and my field research with two international research institutes (IFEAC in Kyrgyzstan and CEFRES in Prague).

I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in history (obtained with honors) and a Bachelor's degree in Geography and Planning (mention A. Bien) from the University of La Rochelle. Involved in several associations (Relai handicap de l'Université, AFEV), I had the opportunity to provide personalized academic support to enthusiastic students.

As a French-German and trilingual student (French and German as native languages – English CEC C1), I offer tutoring and homework help for students from primary to secondary I and II (approximately 10 to 20 years old).
I provide support in all subjects, although French and languages are my specialty.

Having already completed several years of tutoring, I have a great capacity for adaptation, and above all, we will build the pace of the tutoring together according to your needs. Furthermore, my experience as an older sister has taught me how to create a reassuring and motivating environment for learning and education.

Each session is fully personalized:
• Review and explanation of concepts not understood,
• adapted exercises,
• Preparation for tests, assessments and exams
• homework help,
• Methodological support (work organization, memorization, writing, autonomy).

I place particular importance on a caring approach to help each student progress, strengthen their skills and gain confidence!
