From 34 £ /h

As a Master's student in French as a Foreign Language (FLE) at the University of Geneva and a teacher of adult migrants, both in the associative (Red Cross) and professional contexts, I am committed to offering caring, dynamic courses focused on your needs. My goal? For you to learn with pleasure and regularity, in a relaxed, motivating, and respectful atmosphere. Learning a language requires rigor, but also pleasure and curiosity.

I offer online French as a Foreign Language courses tailored to adult learners, from beginners to intermediate levels (A0-A2). If you wish to develop skills beyond A2, that's also possible. Feel free to share your needs with me, and I will adapt accordingly. My courses are based on practical activities that go beyond the textbooks you find in stores. All materials are created or sourced and adapted to your level, needs, objectives, and learning preferences (speaking, writing, reading, grammar, games, practice, homework, or a combination of these). You will learn with materials that closely reflect real-world situations. The first meeting is a 15-30 minute discussion (also available in English, German, and Russian) to define your expectations and choose a learning method that suits you best!

Learn French with pleasure with a qualified and certified teacher with over 25 years of experience, according to your personal or professional interests and needs (conversation, grammar, spelling, phonetics, business language, correspondence, etc.).
You can learn or revise basics, improve your pronunciation, enrich your vocabulary, work on comprehension and written and oral expression with various learning techniques, for example, in monologues and dialogues, language games, the implementation of situation or total immersion.
I will help you achieve your goals by using effective, flexible, fun and motivating, traditional or modern teaching methods (reading and discussion, internet, movie clips, songs) according to your wishes and needs.
If you are interested in a qualified, responsible, motivated, patient, organized, dynamic natural person, with facilities in human contacts, I would like to bring you my skills.

Experienced French teacher, specializing in demanding and tailored support.

I work with a limited number of students to ensure rigorous monitoring and rapid results. My work is aimed at motivated students who wish to progress significantly, particularly with regard to specific objectives (exams, level advancement, transition to the Swiss system).

Each support program begins with an in-depth assessment, then is structured around a structured approach: mastery of language, writing skills, methodology and development of thinking.

The sessions are intensive, personalized, and results-oriented.

Don't remain stuck with the language of Molière: let's learn to master it with rigor and confidence.

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.

Academic support at the levels:
primary school, orientation cycle and secondary II (business school, ECG learning of all kinds ...)

If you have any questions of any kind or if you would like to have a telephone interview first, it would be a pleasure! :)

The French conversation courses are the best to improve your fluency in French and practice conversational French for daily activities. It is a very appropriate conversational French course if you already have some basic knowledge of the language and if you are an expat in a French speaking country. Classes are held on ZOOM, they can be individual or up to a group of four learners. Topics usually follow the actual trends, news and daily life activity.
Online French conversation classes packages includes :

It is a very specific French conversation class specially create to prepare you for the speaking part of the exam DELF B2, DALF C1 and DALF C2. Classes are held on ZOOM, they can be individual or up to a group of four learners. Topics and the problematics worked during this debate and argumentation courses are exactly the one expected for the DELF B2, DALF C1 or DALF C2 exams.
Debate and argumentation French courses packages includes :

• List of arguments, notions and ideas around the problematic
• Notes of the class with vocab and cultural facts

First of all, I am keen to get to know my students. The first lesson is always led by a time for discussion around the student's personal expectations and profile. In addition, it seems absolutely crucial to me to always provide solid methodological bases to all of my learners. This is why a detour via methods specific to French exercises is systematically made with students preparing for the maturity or the baccalaureate. Then, depending on the specific needs of the student, I adapt the session and it is often structured around two moments: on the one hand, I give a lecture on a concept, an author or a literary work, and on the other hand I lead practical exercises. Finally, digital documents can be sent to the student later, this is important so that they can keep a record of our work.
Feel free to contact me for more information.

I travel to homes in the following municipalities: Geneva and its surrounding areas, Collonges-sous-Salève, Archamps, Saint-Julien-en-Genevois, Viry.
The courses can also take place by videoconference, in which case there are no travel costs.
See you soon.
Best regards,

As a French-German and trilingual student (French and German as native languages – English CEC C1), I offer tutoring and homework help for students from primary to secondary I and II (approximately 10 to 20 years old).
I provide support in all subjects, although French and languages are my specialty.

Having already completed several years of tutoring, I have a great capacity for adaptation, and above all, we will build the pace of the tutoring together according to your needs. Furthermore, my experience as an older sister has taught me how to create a reassuring and motivating environment for learning and education.

Each session is fully personalized:
• Review and explanation of concepts not understood,
• adapted exercises,
• Preparation for tests, assessments and exams
• homework help,
• Methodological support (work organization, memorization, writing, autonomy).

I place particular importance on a caring approach to help each student progress, strengthen their skills and gain confidence!

The aim of the course is to help you overcome your weaknesses in spelling, grammar and conjugation.
I will guide you in acquiring knowledge and help you apply the rules in your writing.
We therefore do practical exercises associated with the course to help you put what you have learned into practice.
This course is not an illiteracy course that would require enhanced support.

good morning
I am a French language teacher in a foreign language program and I want to work in service of children and adults who wish to learn French, so I simply develop knowledge of the French language.
I am getting rid of courses that allow me to acquire literary and linguistic knowledge.

I have experience with students from international colleges, particularly in British programs, as well as with high-profile private families.

The courses can focus on conversation, grammar, vocabulary, exam preparation, homework help, or simply improving overall level.

Each course is tailored to the student's needs and objectives, in a serious, interactive and pleasant atmosphere.
