Hi there!
Born and raised in California, I love helping people build their confidence in English while having fun along the way. My goal is to make sure you enjoy learning while making real progress!

Hello !
Originally from California, I offer customized courses to help you achieve your goals, whether for everyday English, professional English, or exams. I have earned the CELTA, an internationally recognized certificate, to offer you effective and tailored courses.

Bilingual in French, I understand the specific challenges French speakers face when learning English. I am here to guide you with patience and clear explanations, always in a good mood!

I love making learning both enriching and fun. That's why each course is tailored to your needs and interests. I've had the pleasure of teaching over a hundred students, both in corporate settings and at home, which has allowed me to refine my method.

In terms of materials, I use a mix of educational websites, books suitable for all levels, as well as YouTube videos, press articles, and audio. Conversation always remains at the heart of the lessons, helping you speak with confidence.

If you'd like, I can also prepare you for the TOEIC, IELTS, and TOEFL tests. And to really reinforce your skills, I'll give you some homework (nothing too heavy, I promise! 😉).

Don't hesitate to contact me, I look forward to meeting you and helping you improve your English!

The English language is very important these days. You will all have to speak English one day or another, whether for school, traveling or for your work. it is the number 1 language in the world, so it is important to have a minimum level.

I teach all levels (A1 to C1). The course will be adapted according to your level.

see you soon :)

English is the main language among users or producers of technology and it is obviously the language of the future!
It’s a language that we must learn because our lives are woven with it! To learn a language, you need to advance all four skills of reading, writing, speaking and listening at the same time!
So here I am with over five years of experience in teaching different people of all ages and nationalities!

Hello, I am Josh from Australia and I currently live in France.
I am an English teacher and tutor.

My approach to teaching is based mostly on the Communicative Method. Everything we do - reading, writing, listening, grammar has an end goal of serving a communicative purpose.
I do not lecture, and I try to keep my talking to a minimum. It is about You, and you should be talking the most.
I like to elicit and get a lot of information from my students', that helps in building their confidence in the language and reducing my teacher talk time.
And finally, my approach is FUN. We need to enjoy what we are doing. I create lessons that are engaging, motivating and interesting. We need to have a laugh and not take things too seriously. Language is play and play is fun, if it's not then we will get bored.

I have been teaching English for over 8 years now in a few different countries. I love teaching English and getting the most out of my students. I take a great interested in supporting you in your language journey and success.

With me, I will support you, challenge you, and create lessons specifically for you. That way, you will enjoy the lessons and see improvement.

Generally, I create a lesson built around a theme or topic and from there I introduce a 'bite size' instruction for revision and practice. For example, a new grammar or vocabulary topic. The focus is ultimately on communication and getting the most out of you.

See you soon!

During the lessons, my main objective is to listen to your concrete needs in order to help you progress in English.

Whether it is to prepare for an exam, develop your professional skills or prepare for a trip abroad, the method I favor is that of putting it into a concrete situation; you will be the actor of your learning journey.

This type of exercise allows you to identify your strengths and areas to work on, but also to help you gain self-confidence. Furthermore, I like to use digital tools to energize sessions, even in person. My goal is to leave room for your expression (written and oral) and to guide you towards new reflexes to help you progress.

For more information, do not hesitate to contact me! 😊

See you soon!

I carefully prepare my language courses, taking into account the needs of each of my students. The most important thing is that you feel comfortable and well understood. At the beginning of the course, we will discuss your goals, your reasons for taking this course, and your expectations so that I can help you in the areas you wish to improve.

In my opinion, the best way to learn a language is to practice it. That's how I learned English myself, and also French.

However, depending on your level and needs, we will of course also work on grammar or do text readings. Having studied it at school, I know how tiring traditional methods of teaching English grammar can be. In my classes, you will never feel tired or nervous while learning this language, because I use more practical and lively methods. They will motivate you and make you want to learn English.

I offer personalized English lessons, tailored to your needs, level and goals.

Whether you want to improve your oral expression, gain fluency, enrich your vocabulary or gain confidence in speaking, my courses are designed to help you progress effectively and in a motivating way.

My approach is communicative and learner-centered: we work from concrete situations, authentic documents, and guided discussions. I draw on methods from language teaching methodology, with particular attention to clarity, progression, and feedback.

Courses may include:
– practice of oral expression
– thematic vocabulary
– correction and reformulation
– mini communicative tasks

The sessions are suitable for both adults and students, and are conducted online in a supportive and structured environment.

Lessons can be held in Strasbourg or online via video conference, depending on the student's needs. I have experience teaching English to adults and improving the language skills of university students (especially pronunciation and speaking), as well as working with children on their early language development. I am ready to teach all levels. Regarding teaching methods, I can adapt to your needs and assist you directly with the assignments. If you would like support for general language improvement, we will begin by identifying your weaknesses and building your knowledge from there.

Lively, fun English tailored to your interests 🇬🇧

Learning English doesn't necessarily have to involve traditional lessons and repetitive exercises! I want to offer dynamic, interactive lessons tailored to each student, using a variety of materials that are relevant to everyday life.

🎬 Movies and series
🎵 Music and songs
📰 Media and news
📱 Social networks and current content
💬 Discussions and role-playing exercises

The goal is to progress naturally in comprehension, oral expression, vocabulary and grammar, while enjoying learning.

I adapt to each student's level, goals, and preferences to create personalized and motivating lessons. Whether it's to improve at school, prepare for an exam, or simply become more comfortable speaking English, we will work together in a supportive and pressure-free environment.
