About Me

As a language teacher (English and French) for ten years, I have taught in France and abroad, at both secondary and university levels.
I hold a PhD in American literature, and I have worked in the United Kingdom.
Having worked with diverse audiences, I can adapt to the needs and objectives of each student, and I enjoy offering dynamic courses based on concrete examples to make learning fun and effective!
However, I do not neglect the fundamental aspects of the language (grammar, vocabulary) and I always work on the four skills: written comprehension and expression, oral comprehension and expression.

I offer refresher courses in various languages such as French, English, Italian and many other languages. I give language courses to children, adolescents, but also to adults, in order to fill their gaps or teach them a new language. Passing on my passion for languages and helping students to communicate properly flourishes me professionally.
Having worked extensively with languages, I know exactly what my students' expectations are and the methods to be used to achieve their goals. My patience, understanding and receptiveness have always been appreciated by my students.

My personalized tutoring lessons are a great help in enabling my students to progress with confidence. I provide them with tailored learning methods. After easily identifying their areas of weakness, I assist them in consolidating their knowledge and achieving all the objectives required by their teachers in public or private schools.

I have two educational support locations available for my students:
Avenue de Lavaux (since 04.01.21)
Rue du Lac (since 01.09.22)

In addition to this, I offer pre-entry courses, ECR preparation courses, school coaching, and language courses.
My private lessons are suitable for DYS/ADD students as well as highly proficient (HP) students. I also collaborate with other teachers for certain more specialized subjects.

All lessons can be conducted either individually or in small groups of 2 to 4 students.

I was introduced to Chinese calligraphy from an early age through my family's long-standing tradition and cultural heritage. This foundation allowed me to develop a deep appreciation for Chinese calligraphy as both an art form and a reflection of Chinese culture, history, and philosophy.

For the past eight years, I have been teaching Chinese calligraphy in Switzerland to students ranging from 4 years old to adults, from diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds. My classes focus not only on handwriting techniques but also on cultivating an understanding of the rich cultural traditions behind the art.

I was introduced to Chinese calligraphy at a very young age thanks to the long tradition and cultural heritage of my family. This foundation allowed me to develop a deep admiration for Chinese calligraphy, both as an art form and as a reflection of Chinese culture, history, and philosophy.

For the past eight years, I have been teaching Chinese calligraphy in Switzerland to students ranging in age from four to adulthood, from diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds. My courses focus not only on writing techniques but also aim to develop an understanding of the rich cultural traditions that underpin this art.

得益于家族悠久的传统和文化遗产,我从小便接触中国书法。这一基础使我能够深领略中国书法作为一种艺术形式,以及作为中国文化、历史和哲学的体现所蕴含的深厚价值。

过去八年来,我在瑞士教授中国书法,学生年龄从4岁到成年人不等,来自多元的文化和语言背景。我的课程不仅注重书写技巧,更致力于培养学生对这门艺术背后丰富文化传统的理解。

A serious student in high school, I always felt comfortable in school, particularly in math, French, and English. I enjoy sharing my knowledge and have already helped classmates improve in these subjects.

I offer personalized support tailored to each student's needs: reviewing the school curriculum, homework help, test/exam preparation, or simply reinforcing the fundamentals. I adapt my method to each student's pace, with great patience. The goal is for the student to truly understand, not just memorize.

Available this summer and flexible with hours. Feel free to contact me to discuss your child's specific needs.

Passionate about English language and culture, I offer English lessons for all levels, whether it's to progress at school, prepare for an exam, gain confidence in speaking, or simply rediscover this language with pleasure.
I am currently completing my Master's degree in English literature and poetry at the University of Lausanne (UNIL), having successfully completed all my courses. This program has allowed me to develop a solid command of English, both written and spoken, as well as a real rigor in analysis and argumentation — skills that I enjoy passing on to my students, whether it is for traditional academic support or more advanced guidance in literature (essays, poem analysis, preparation for the baccalaureate or the gymnasium).
My method: I always start with the student's level and actual needs before creating a customized learning plan. I alternate between grammar, vocabulary in context, listening and reading comprehension, and above all, plenty of speaking practice, often the most difficult aspect to work on alone. Each lesson begins with a review of what has been learned, focuses on a specific objective, and ends with clear feedback on areas that need further work.
I am patient, attentive, punctual, and I adapt my pace to each student, without judgment. For parents who entrust their child to me, I commit to providing regular updates on progress and remaining attentive to their feedback.
My courses are for everyone: secondary school students, high school students, adults wishing to improve their English for personal or professional use, or anyone curious to progress at their own pace.
Courses can be held online or in person in Lausanne, whichever suits you best. Feel free to contact me to discuss your needs and goals!

Exam Preparation: Focused training for Cambridge (PET, FCE, CAE), IELTS, or TOEFL exams.

Conversation & Fluency: Boosting your confidence, perfecting your pronunciation, and expanding your vocabulary.

Business & Professional English: Interview prep, resume polishing, and professional presentation skills.

My Teaching Approach:
- No two students are the same. I tailor every single lesson to your specific pace, interests, and goals. I focus on creating a supportive, interactive environment where you feel completely comfortable making mistakes and growing your confidence.

Lessons can take place online, at the UNIL campus, or at a convenient location in Lausanne. Feel free to send me a message to discuss your goals. Let's make learning English enjoyable and stress-free!

As a substitute teacher for the Canton of Vaud, I hold a high school diploma (economics option, Auguste Piccard Gymnasium) and have completed two years of studies at HEC UNIL. My classroom teaching experience allows me to effectively support students in their academic progress.

I offer private tutoring in mathematics, economics, French, and English (native speaker), from primary school to high school level. I adapt my teaching methods to each student's pace and needs, with the goal of building confidence and improving academic performance.

Each session is structured around the student's specific needs: reviewing poorly understood concepts, targeted exercises, and preparation for exams and assessments. My goal is to make learning accessible and motivating, highlighting progress made at each stage.

Based in Lausanne, I am available for in-person or video conference meetings, according to your preferences.
