English lessons (school and adult) - Effective and enjoyable

From 28 £ /h

My experience teaching English to children, teenagers (middle and high school), and adults (I also teach English to French-speaking military personnel) allows me to offer effective and enjoyable English lessons. My approach: a relaxed method focused on speaking, vocabulary, and building confidence.

I am always very attentive to students' needs, and I am used to adapting to their level and interests. Familiar with school curricula and the requirements of various certifications, I can teach students of all ages.

Ideal for preparing for Cambridge Certifications.

Graduated with CELFLE / CELTA diploma, I have teaching experiences with adults also with children.

Whatever the level and situation of the student, I adapt to the needs, wishes, objectives while delivering my own expertise and approach in order to identify possible gaps and focus on points to work as a priority.

Serious, caring, motivated, involved, pedagogue and punctual, I am very involved in the success of each of my students to allow them to progress and am available to answer their questions or those of their parents even outside the hours of course. I offer a personalized pedagogical accompaniment and aims at transmitting effective and proven working methods. I also seek to empower and empower students, to give them the confidence they need, and to be demanding so that they succeed.

I have been teaching for more than 20 years in Geneva(Organizations/Group courses/Preparation for Delf etc..) at all levels and for the past years I have specialized in Survival modules and exam preparation for Fide exam( required for permit B/ C and citizenship) Usually I come to student's home and we have 1 or 2 lessons of 1h30 peer week depending on their needs and focus..As I am teaching between Geneva and Nyon, I am more in favor of meeting the students at their home.
Let me know if I could be of any help and then we could organize a meeting depending on your availabilities

I teach students, as well as adults who want to improve their English for professional reasons.
My experience over the past 10 years has allowed me to develop a simple and effective method that adapts to the needs of the student, taking into account their interests. This way, the student becomes seriously involved and progresses quickly.
My native ear allows me to have a real impact on the pronunciation and accent of the student, without ever neglecting the importance of learning to write. In addition, my experience as a translator allows me to teach the different nuances of the language in the most efficient way possible.

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.

My course begins by identifying the topics to be covered (first lesson: review of past exams/assignments, questions the student has, etc.). Then, we review any missing theory, and finally, we redo the exercises that are causing difficulty. Each subsequent lesson will start with one or two exercises from the previous session to check if the theory has been properly understood.

Mathematics: calculations, algebra, equations, geometry, trigonometry, logarithms and statistics

My name is Nicolas, and I'm an English teacher with eight years of teaching experience. I've spoken English since I was a teenager and have continued to practice it through my many travels. My level was further improved during an extended stay in Canada. In 2018, I passed the TEFL Cambridge exam, the English as a Foreign Language Teaching Certificate.

Having also gone through the process of learning to speak this language, I am well aware of the different stages my students go through. This helps considerably.

My courses are custom-built to achieve personal goals and are adapted to the specific needs of each individual.

Practice is prioritized throughout the learning process to foster independence as quickly as possible. Basic grammar and vocabulary concepts are also covered, depending on the student's level.

This course is aimed at:
- Beginners (basics, conversation, travel);
- Intermediate/advanced (improvement, exam preparation: TOEFL, IELTS, TOEIC);
- Professionals (business English, interview preparation).

Feel free to contact me for more information.

With pleasure :)

Initially, I listen to the student to understand their current level with the language, their relationship to it. To identify their difficulties, strengths and weaknesses. And how they envision and view language as a tool.
Then I evaluate it on several aspects: oral, written, and oral comprehension.
Then I determine a program based on the difficulties and shortcomings identified.
I explain to him what I have noticed and what I propose we work on, and if he or she agrees.

Hello! I’m Trina, a native English teacher from England, now living in France.

I help adults and teenagers (14+) build confidence in English for real-life situations. Whether you’re preparing for a job interview, improving your Business English, travelling, or simply wanting to speak more naturally, I’ll create lessons that match your goals.

I’m currently completing my CELTA qualification and I design structured lessons based on the CEFR (A1–C2) framework, helping students develop speaking, listening, reading, writing, grammar, pronunciation and vocabulary together.

Before becoming an English teacher, I worked in international business development and recruitment, so I understand the English needed for meetings, presentations, interviews and professional communication. I also previously worked as a veterinary nurse, giving me experience communicating with people from many different backgrounds.

My lessons are friendly, supportive and practical. I believe students learn best when they feel relaxed, make mistakes confidently, and practise English through meaningful conversations.

Outside teaching, I enjoy hiking in the French Alps, travelling, photography and spending time with animals.

I look forward to helping you achieve your English goals!

6 years teaching experience. Teaching French and multilingual students both online in person and in the military. CELTA qualified

Unlock your potential in English with me! Together, we'll build your confidence and tailor lessons to your goals. Let's make learning enjoyable and meaningful, so you can thrive in real-life situations. I can't wait to get started!

Hi! I’m a native English speaker and CELTA-qualified teacher, and I love helping people feel more comfortable and confident speaking English.

Before moving back to Geneva, I worked with NGOs in Greece supporting refugees and asylum seekers. As part of my work, I taught English to people from many different backgrounds and levels, as well as managing community programmes and volunteers. I really enjoyed the teaching side of my work — especially getting to know people individually and seeing their confidence grow.

That's why I prefer one-to-one lessons. I want our lessons to feel less like a traditional classroom and more like a relaxed conversation where you can practise, ask questions and learn at your own pace.

We can focus on whatever is most useful for you. Maybe you understand English quite well but find it difficult to speak. Maybe you need English for work, want to prepare for an interview, or simply want to feel more confident having conversations with English speakers. Or perhaps you just want someone to practise with regularly.

I'm friendly, patient and happy to adapt the lessons to you. Making mistakes is completely fine — that's how you learn! If you have a particular goal in mind, feel free to get in touch and tell me a little about what you'd like to improve.
