I can adapt to any working method and level up to high school, possibility of working by zoom, but I prefer to work directly face-to-face (more practical).
My schedules are indicated according to my schedule, but may vary according to certain courses and during my exam periods.

I am a first year business school student.
I obtained the bac S with very good honors and I was then able to consolidate my knowledge and my working methods during my 3 years of prep (1 in MPSI then reorientation in prep HEC geopolitics option).
I am very interested in both literary and scientific subjects.
My travels and my experiences, particularly as a scout leader, give me great curiosity, a sense of responsibility and allow me to implement a pedagogy adapted to the student.

Vietnamese is my mother tongue.
I have a Southern accent (like a Saigon accent) since I lived there for 10 years
I also have a Central accent because this is my hometown and I can speak Vietnamese with a Northern accent as well.
I have 7 years of experience in teaching (Chemistry and Science in English) so I have quite a strong background in education and teaching language as well.
In my classes, I love to use ICT (information and communication technology) to teach such as quizzes, interactive games,...
I also help you systemize the knowledge so you can revise after class along with homework and quizzes
I can talk with you about various topics, especially cuisine, travelling, and science... because they are my hobbies and profession.
Just be chill and I hope you enjoy my Vietnamese classes.

My approach:

Ecological and constructive constraint-based learning: I help you develop authentic conversational skills, adapted to real situations that you will encounter in everyday life.

Training in negotiation and authentic communication: Whether for sales or personal relationships, I support you to improve your communication skills, not only in English, but in all areas.

Targeted Vocabulary Development: My lessons are completely personalized to meet your specific needs and interests, so you learn what is most relevant to you.

A New Approach to Grammar: I offer a unique method for approaching English grammar, which finally clarifies the difficulties encountered by most French speakers.

Improved Listening and Pronunciation: Through targeted listening exercises with a variety of voices and rhythms, as well as an exploration of the musicality of English through reading and music, you will improve your comprehension and speak more naturally.

Typical Course of a Session:

5 minutes of free conversation: To begin each session, I discuss freely with the student to help him express himself without immediate corrections, simply so that he gains confidence in speaking.

Review of homework (if completed): We then review the homework, still in English, using this opportunity to consolidate the learning.

Conversation and exercises in English: The last part of the session is dedicated to a conversation in English which can include discussions on grammar, vocabulary or specific exercises in English or communication. Homework is always linked to the lesson of the day.

Multiple choice correction: Errors are corrected by providing several possible answers to the student, who must choose the correct one, rather than telling them directly what is incorrect.

Where do the courses take place?
All classes are taught at my home, online, or a short bike ride from my home.

Why choose my courses?
My methods are unique in France. If you are ready to finally master English grammar, strengthen your negotiation skills or simply feel more comfortable in communication, let's work together.

Located in the heart of Grenoble – I am here to help you improve your English and much more.

Hello everyone,

I am a passionate and motivated student who seeks to make a positive contribution to society in any way possible.
I believe that the best way to learn is to practice using your skills, such as listening, speaking or writing. Therefore, the lessons will be conducted to improve these skills such as practicing conversation, listening comprehension, vocabulary enrichment, etc.

I offer help or support courses for English, geography or the HGGSP specialty (history, geography, geopolitics and political science).
With my experience in theater, I want to give dynamic lessons by offering a broader vision to my students. I try as best I can to adapt to the student I have in front of me to help them appreciate the subject and offer them a different working method than the one proposed in class.
The subjects I offer are subjects that I have been passionate about throughout my schooling. I like to practice them, and therefore pass them on!

English connects people and helps you make foreign contacts. As a language tutor/trainer/teacher/ linguist, I can help with and set off for a language journey. Efficiency from myself and regularity from yourself would be the keys for achieving your goal which is to get a rapid command of English.
