    I'm from Vancouver, Canada, 40 years old.
    I've taught English in Japan for five years and recently moved to Lyon.
    I have a TEFL certificate.
    Listening, speaking and discussing skills is my specialty.
    Normally the student and I choose a course book together so it is appropriate and interesting.

    Explanation of difficult words and expressions, understanding of class lessons.
    Able to pass on my knowledge, I am trustworthy and able to support your children in their educational journey. The French course for beginners aims to introduce the basics of the language, including grammar, vocabulary, and basic communication skills. Students will learn to construct simple sentences, introduce themselves, and acquire everyday conversation skills. The beginner's math course focuses on fundamental concepts such as basic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division), numbers, and basic geometry. Students will develop a progressive understanding of mathematical principles while strengthening their problem-solving skills.

    Learn or improve in French English for beginners
    To be able to communicate in a foreign language, you need to know the four skills: grammar, conjugation, spelling, vocabulary. However the oral exchange is also essential This is why we will start with conversations for beginners or confirmed and we will then study the language from different supports However, for those who master the French language, I will be able to review with them certain points that they wish to improve or prepare them for the exams. I can also help those who have never been able to learn to read and write or who have difficulty writing a text, an email or a report without mistakes.

    Academic support / homework help from primary to college
    3rd year law student, I am available for primary / college homework help. The subjects that I can teach are: French / maths / geo history / SVT / physics-chemistry / English / Italian. I can also give refresher courses before the start of the school year. I have been doing this activity since 2019. My goal is above all to help the student to regain self-confidence. In general, difficulties in a subject arise either from a problem of methodology or from a blockage. In both cases, it is essential that the student has confidence in himself and in his abilities. Regarding the course of the course, I think it is wise to spend 1/3 of the time on the explanations, then to move on to the practice of exercises (first helped, then in autonomy).

    English Language Tutoring (house-to-house)
    Private English Tutoring offered for people who would like to go around the world in the future. English is one of the most important languages in the whole world, and it will be quite useful for travelling and business. I specialize in English. My goal is to help people to feel comfortable about their speaking level and whenever a conversation is needed. This class will be less dull than just writing on a piece of paper or huge memorization. There will be fun literature reading, word pronunciation (accents), and being creative to make sentences. Further more, our lessons will be relaxing and conversational. If you are an absolute beginner in English, there will be no problem with me. I've had experiences with nine-year-old children before.
