French lessons: conversations, grammar, reading

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I lived for almost 15 years in Paris (in a French family) and defended my doctoral thesis in philology and literature at the Sorbonne University.
French became my first professional language and second native language.

Passionate about the French language, I would like to share my experiences and teach you this beautiful language:
- communication for daily life,
- corrections of articles in French,
- immersion in literature,
- lots of other learning methods...

I always adapt to your interests and goals!

Maxim helped me a lot in the lecture to improve my french prononciation, which is my weak point. He was always quite patient and provided me important feedbacks so i can improve. For my specific question he even found better teaching material to explain. I really enjoyed all the lectures and am proud of the progress i could make with Maxim's help.
Church Slavonic: grammar, reading of medieval manuscripts and texts, history of religious literature; study of Orthodox liturgy; exegesis of the Holy Scriptures translated from Greek into Slavonic. Slavon de l'Eglise : grammaire, lecture des manuscrits et des textes médiévaux, correction de la prononciation, histoire de la littérature religieuse ; étude sur la liturgie orthodoxe ; exégèse des Saintes Ecritures traduites du grec en slavon.
Grammar, conversation and/or reading lessons to learn Dutch. Individual method for each student; all ages. Grammar, conversation and reading courses to learn Dutch. Individual method for each student; all ages.
Russian (native speaker): I offer lessons for all levels: grammar, conversation, litterature... Language is my passion. I obtained the degree of Doctor in the Faculty of Philology at the Sorbonne University, then a PhD in Classics at KU Leuven. In Russia I also got the pedagogical diploma. Currently I am doing my research on philology and palaeography in Glasgow University. I really like teaching the Russian language; we can tackle different aspects: communicating to travel, expressing in everyday life, but also reading literature, understanding the etymology and rapprochements of Russian with other languages. My method is complete immersion, structure and progression according to the rhythm of each student. I have all the necessary materials for the courses, but you can always bring your own textbooks. Feel free to contact me for any details!
Doctor of Philology (Sorbonne), PhD in Classics (KU Leuven), I'm interested in Greek Byzantine philology and paleogaphy, New Testament manuscript tradition, history of Byzantium. I'm now based on the UK (Glasgow). Courses are taught in English, French, and Russian. All levels. Ancient and Byzantine Greek: - grammar, - reading Classical texts, - Christian authors and Church Fathers, - paleography: study of Byzantine manuscripts My method consists of combining grammatical theory and textual practice from the very beginning. I propose to study ancient and Byzantine Greek from different angles: reading medieval manuscripts, grammar, reading and commentaries on ancient and religious texts. Уроки по древнегреческому визучение языку: рукописей, чтение текстов из Библии, Святых Отцов и Литургии. Вход в Православное Христианство!

Learn French or English from beginner to advance, for children and adults
As a tutor, I adopt a personalised and empathetic teaching style. My goal is to build trust with students of all ages, from children to adults. For French tutoring, I focus on conversational practice, vocabulary, and cultural nuances. As an English TEFL tutor, I emphasise real-world scenarios, grammar, speaking fluency, and listening comprehension. I assign homework weekly to assess the students learning skills and periodic progress reports monthly to see the students learning growth. Throughout, I maintain a positive and supportive tone to motivate and engage my students with fun and active activities.

Kevin
Non-formal Latin classes. Multilingual teacher with 10 years of experience. Pronunciation, historical linguistics, semantics.
Contrary to popular belief, learning Latin is not like learning the phone book by heart. I offer you Latin lessons that are unlike any other. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches: If you take the train back and forth every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options: 1) Learn the schedules by heart. 2) Note that the train arrives every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m. In school pedagogy, in study notebooks and in ordinary courses, it is the first approach which is adopted - in the courses that I offer you, it is the second because it is more economical and faster. My offer is aimed at both students and adults who want to learn the Latin language or deepen their knowledge without time-consuming detours through the insanities of school methods which do not produce results. Learning is easy but unlearning what has become a bad habit is extremely difficult. All the more important it is to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. With my tailor-made teaching you will accelerate your learning in a positive state of mind. I offer individual or group Latin lessons (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive sciences and in particular historical linguistics. What will not be the subject of the course: learn lists of verbs; learn lists of nouns with their gender; learn words with their translations; memory card game; doing school exercises; follow the program in a notebook; impose French grammar on the Latin language. What matters to me in particular: motivate my student and give him a learning rhythm; encourage creativity; make friends with language; letters and their sounds strengthen your memory by working on the phonological loop; teach construction plans instead of having people learn sentences by heart; explain how the language works to make my student independent as quickly as possible; breaking preconceived ideas such as the gammatical gender would have a link with the biological gender, the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, the verbs would be irregular, the declension would be random and therefore to be learned with each verb... ; place practice at the center and articulate grammar around practice. In the context of a first course, you can get a well-founded idea of my pedagogy. I look forward to meeting you.

French courses for students in school and students who would like to improve in the language.
French is one of the most influential languages in the world. Knowing how to speak, read and write it while understanding the significant accuracy of the words used is an asset that unfortunately very few master. My lessons are based on my student's expectations, the areas in which he wants to work will be implemented.
