About Me

My name is Ginevra, I am 27 years old and I live in Brescia. In April 2023 I obtained a Master's Degree in Editing and Journalism with a thesis titled "Web Writing: Mobile-Friendly Journalism", obtaining a result of 110/110 at the University of Verona. In 2020, however, I graduated in Foreign Languages and Literatures after obtaining the following linguistic certifications according to the CEFR: level C1: English and Spanish; Level B1: French. After graduating I did a 3-month Erasmus internship (June 2023 to September 2023) at the language school "Hispania, Escuela de Español" in Valencia, Spain.
Since January 2022 (until today) I teach Italian language for foreign adults at the CPIA in Brescia. Additionally, I served as a teacher in 3 FAMI courses, a wonderful and truly educational experience. I had the extraordinary opportunity to open my mind from a multicultural point of view thanks to direct contact with adult foreigners from different parts of the world (from Pakistan to Ghana, from Morocco to Ukraine and many others). Together with my students I shared traditions, cultures and beliefs and greatly enriched all my knowledge by breaking any type of prejudice and stereotype that, unfortunately, is terribly present within our society.

Education

I have been teaching Italian as a second language to foreign adults for 3 years at the CPIA (Provincial Center for Adult Education). I am currently studying for the DITALS exam to certify my skills in teaching Italian to foreigners." I taught Italian in the FAMI courses (Italian courses to facilitate the linguistic, social and cultural integration of foreigners present in Italian territory).

I have fifteen years of experience in teaching, writing, and research. I am a passionate person, but I also appreciate methodical and structured work. I always organize my lessons in more or less the same way (a short introduction/review, a focus on the main activities, and a conclusion/summary to review the corrections made during the session, discuss any difficulties encountered, and plan for the next steps). For the same reason, I advocate the use of high-quality teaching materials.

I therefore offer you, with great pleasure, two types of courses where the rigor of a training center combines with the advantages of a personalized teacher:

1. LANGUAGE, CULTURE AND CIVILIZATION COURSE IN LATIN AMERICA AND SPANISH. If you learn the language for fun, if you are going on a trip, if you like literature, cinema, art, music, gastronomy, this style of course is for you. For intermediate / advanced levels, we can explore the various expressions of the Hispanic world at our discretion. Your proposals are welcome and / or I would suggest documents from ELE manuals such as "Todas las voces", "Clases de cine", "Aires de fiesta latina", etc. We can also start learning the language, and for that we will use the very recent manual "Bitácora", really innovative in its lexical approach: priority to the construction of sentences and word networks, less grammar rules. Finally, if you want to browse with me an ELE manual on a specific subject (a country, a cinematic genre, a cultural expression), I would be delighted to present my ideas to you, to buy it at the same time as you and to discover it. and explore it together.

2. PREPARATION FOR COMPETITIONS (DELE, CAPES, AGGREGATION, ENTRY INTO SCHOOL OF COMMERCE) AND SCHOOL SUPPORT (TERMINAL, BTS, LICENSE, MASTER), to help you overcome your difficulties and better understand the essentials, the details, the specifics of the Spanish language and the Hispanic world. In these courses it is you who provide me with the basic material (exception for DELE, where I can offer you methods and manuals), these documents which cause you problems. I will take the time to examine them, analyze them and finally accompany you and clarify together what seemed obscure and inaccessible.

Thank you and see you soon !

Full-time private teacher, I hold a Masters in International Relations at Sciences Po Lille and a Masters in Journalism.

I offer private lessons to prepare for the various tests for the SESAME competition: contemporary issues (monitoring and analysis of current events) and English (grammar, conjugation, comprehension).

The lessons can also allow you to work on the working method to be adopted before the exams (readings, pace of revisions) and during the exams (time management and organization).

For more than three years, I have worked both for private tutoring organizations (Les Petits Bilingues, Campus des savoirs, Anacours), and as a self-entrepreneur (I have official accreditation).

I have already taught to a very varied audience (from 4 to 70 years old, French, English, Canadian, Chinese, Russian ....), adapting each time to the objectives and the level of the student .

I offer private lessons for:
- academic support (primary school, college and high school)
- progress in English (oral and written)
- prepare for the Sciences Po competition (contemporary issues / general culture, history, English)
- prepare business schools for the SESAME competition (contemporary issues, English)
- improve your level of French (especially for foreigners)

Overcome your fears and unlock creative inspiration to finally get to the end of your writing project.

Let yourself be guided and finally realize your dream of writing.

➤ Overcome your fears.
➤ Discover the secret to writing 100% fun and 0% blank pages.
➤ Awaken this writer's flame that has been dormant in you for a long time.
➤ Build unwavering legitimacy and overcome the fear of failure, lack of time and procrastination that keep you from moving forward.

In short, put an end to the fear of writing! Isn't it difficult to be consumed by the desire to write your project and not succeed in doing it? Break forever the insurmountable wall that prevents you from writing today.

It is a matter of combining improvements in form with improvements in substance. For this, the sessions can for example take place according to your needs as follows:
a) Comments / proposals on the text that you will offer me b) Writing exercises based on a statement.
c) A series of precise and pragmatic recommendations and their application through style exercises.

Whether it is a novel, an essay, song lyrics, various texts, a biography or simply a report for professional or school purposes, it is about offering you elements personalized pedagogy:

- Study your text
- Build text, song lyrics etc
- Calmly polish the style
- Research and develop your lexical fields
- Differentiate between writing for oneself and writing for others

All this by combining theory and practice: Writing work from exercises then as part of a personal project.

During the sessions, you are guided in your writing project. The trainer accompanies you and teaches you the preparation method, gives you writing tools and helps you work on your style and your imagination.

The objective is multiple, including a reflection on one's own literary path, an introduction to the basic tools of style work and exercises on description.

Learning objectives:
- Identify your writing path.
- Mobilize your imagination.
- Learn and master the practical writing tools.
- Broaden its reflection on creation and professional and personal writing.
- Create and develop one or more projects.

Trained in a European Grande Ecole & Ivy League University in the United States, specialized and has been working in Europe and North America for more than 16 years in this field, in reputable international institutions , also intervening in forums and conferences.

- Locations: Geneva - Lausanne - Friborg - Neuchâtel - Montreux - Basel - Sion - Sierre - Morges - Bienne. But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid.

These sessions, for which you have asked me, also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). Indeed, they have the advantage of face-to-face sessions (ex: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (ex: the entire session transcribed in writing on the chat). That is why, at your request, I continue to offer this option.

À la carte: evaluated and adapted to each personality.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION:

➤Overcome your fears and unlock creative inspiration to finally complete your project.

Let yourself be guided and finally realize your dream of writing.
➤ Overcome your fears
➤ Discover the secret to producing high-quality writing that's 100% enjoyable and 0% writer's block.
➤ Awaken this writer's flame that has been dormant in you for a long time
➤ Build unwavering legitimacy and overcome the fear of failure, lack of time and procrastination that keep you from moving forward.

In short, overcome your fear of writing. Isn't it frustrating to be consumed by the desire to write your project and yet unable to do so? Break down that insurmountable wall that's holding you back.

This involves combining improvements in form with refinements in content. For example, concrete techniques for starting your text and overcoming writer's block, feedback/suggestions on your texts, writing and style exercises based on a prompt, a series of precise/pragmatic recommendations and their implementation.

That is why, if your manuscript is stuck and you don't know how to start or continue it, if you have all the ideas but don't know what form they should take, if you want to save time in the creative process: let's build the architecture of your story together.

Learning objectives include:
• Discover writing, build confidence, let your own literary voice/path emerge, and unleash your imagination
• Studying and constructing a text, song lyrics...
• Calmly refine the style and create consistency between form and content
• Research and develop your vocabulary
• Acquire techniques and know-how to convey your message both clearly and simply
• Differentiate between writing for oneself and writing for others
• Explore your creativity and develop your expression
• To construct a complete story by creating characters, settings, lively scenes...
• Acquire and master practical writing tools, always with a focus on simplicity/simplification and efficiency (both in content and form)
• Discover contemporary writing and diversify your practice
• Acquire narrative techniques to engage in long stories

So, start, resume or finish a piece of writing you have dreamed of for a long time if you want to write but don't know where to start; if you have a story but don't know how to tell it; if you love to write but have lost your inspiration; if you have a manuscript buried in a drawer and you are afraid of failing.

To achieve this, the first step is to unleash your writing and let go: strengthen your imagination, explore your inspiration, and cultivate your originality. Next, turn your weaknesses into a driving force for writing by exploring your wounds to better utilize them and adopt an effective writing method. Finally, master writing techniques and bring characters to life while crafting captivating stories, controlling pacing, and developing suspenseful plots.

All this by combining theory and practical/concrete applications: writing assignments based on exercises and then within the framework of your project.

During the sessions, you will be guided in your writing project. The trainer will support you in your written communication and offer tools, while helping you to work on and/or optimize your style and imagination.

Proofreading, revising, correcting and formatting articles, theses, etc.: these options are also possible.

Furthermore, these sessions allow one to improve one's written communication and to study the different methods to achieve this (email, letter, report, presentation...), both in terms of content and form.

Hola,
¿cómo estás?☺️
My name is Joana. I am a native Spanish teacher, with a degree in Spanish Literature and Language and a Master's degree in Spanish as a foreign language (UNED Faculty).
■ Since 2009 I have been working at the Cervantes Institute as an OFFICIAL EXAMINER of DELE diplomas (Diploma in Spanish as a Foreign Language)
(I am fluent in French, so during the course I give all the necessary explanations in French on grammatical rules or vocabulary.
Having extensive teaching experience, I prepare students/adults for all levels of the DELE Spanish Diplomas and for all official Spanish exams within Universities.
● Spanish courses for adults who intend to travel or live in a Spanish-speaking country.
● Specialized fun Spanish courses for children (6-13 years old), audiovisual material, interactive games on the internet, choice of textbooks taking into account their age. Children learn the language through experiences and experiences while having fun.
● Help with school homework/exams for French students (all levels, + preparation for BTS, CNED)
● Spanish courses for adults who use Spanish in a professional context (Business Spanish: tourism/restaurants, law, etc.)
● Spanish pronunciation/phonetics/conversation courses (exercises provided by the Cervantes Institute). During my Master's degree, I specialized in Spanish phonetics for foreigners. Students can achieve a very good level of oral production even if they are beginners* :)
● Written production, grammar, oral and written comprehension.
● Spanish civilization course.
I live in Spain, so I give all my classes on Skype.
Skype classes are very flexible and as effective as face-to-face classes! (100% success rate for all Cervantes Institute DELE diplomas and all university exams!)
■ COMPLETE learning materials provided to all my students according to their personal level/age/interests (DELE preparation manual, grammar book, pronunciation guide, notes, mp3 audios)

I will be happy to read from you.

A greeting,
Johanne :) 👩🏻‍🏫🇪🇸

With almost a decade of experience, I can tell you that developmental editing is the last crucial step authors seek. This specific field allows an objective outlook on the creative projects without bias towards characters, contextual components, and writing style.
Editing in its entirety is designed to polish and bring out the best version possible of a book. Developmental editing takes it to the next level with analysing characters, settings, backgrounds, and writing style without getting tanged in the sentiments all the mentioned elements invoke.

My 1-1 tutoring sessions are flexible. If you have homework you need help with, or a test coming up you need to prepare for, I am happy to help with that! If you are looking for general, skills-based ELA help, we can discuss your needs and I will implement an individual curriculum to suit your goals.

I have extensive experience helping students improve their reading and writing skills with great success. This includes writing structure and content development, grammar, punctuation, spelling, phonics, reading comprehension, literary analysis, and more.

My lessons are safe spaces where anybody can explore, experiment with and develop their imagination and creativity. I focus on making every lesson feel like a practical workshop rather than a traditional lecture.
You may bring whatever you have — an idea, a first line, a half-written chapter, a finished story, a drawing, coursework, or even nothing at all — and together we’ll figure out where you are in your creative process.

From there:
We make and we test. We write and read it out loud. Hearing your own words will help you spot what works and what needs improving.

We work on your project. Some students like specific exercises, others prefer to develop their own novel, screenplay or school assignment with personalised feedback. Every lesson is adapted to your goal and pace.

We work through a writer’s biggest challenge; writer’s block. Whether you are struggling to come up with ideas or you find yourself stuck; I will help you overcome it. A practical way might be a 10-minute freewrite, interviewing one of your characters, stripping a scene back to pure dialogue or trying a completely different exercise to get your imagination moving again.
Finally, you’ll leave each lesson with practical tools, clear next steps and techniques to build momentum, confidence and creative discipline. Most importantly, I want you to enjoy the creative process and feel excited to keep writing long after the lesson ends.

I work with students aged 6 and above, from complete beginners to more experienced writers. I also teach English and German.

As the world becomes increasingly connected, it is important to have the confidence to speak, write, and read effectively in English, a language widely used for international communication.

My classes are designed to equip students with practical communication skills in English.
Whether you want to improve your speaking confidence, strengthen your reading and writing skills, or communicate more clearly in academic, professional, or everyday situations, the lessons will be adapted to your individual needs.

With my background in customer service and communication, I emphasise on clear communication, confidence and vi m vocabulary development.

Students will have opportunities to practise through conversational exercises, reading and writing activities as well a presentation and real real life scenarios.

Hello, my name is Briani! I'm originally from New York but currently living in Paris, where I'm pursuing my Masters at Sciences Po. I've mentored a dozen students through the U.S. college admissions process, helping them gain admission to schools like MIT, UPenn, Rice, Princeton, MIT, Columbia, and the University of Chicago, to name a few. I also worked in the undergraduate admissions office at Columbia for a year as an undergraduate student.

I'm extremely passionate about essay writing and wanting my students to feel like their personal statement is the most authentic story they tell. I provide a thoughtful, personalized, and encouraging approach, challenging students to bring their very best. We will brainstorm ideas for your personal statement, work on drafts with specific, line-by-line feedback where applicable, and also address supplementary essays.

Whether we are starting from scratch or you'd like feedback or advice on how to navigate the college admissions process, I'll take my time and care to make sure all the information I have is clear, accessible, and helpful for you.

Learn techniques that allow you to see the world as a poem, keep your inspiration flowing, and allow your muse to run free at last. This course will give the student the confidence necessary to remain inspired in spite of discouragement, whether the discouragement comes from without, or within. Every class will be different, depending on the needs and interests of the student. Poetry, songwriting, and other forms of creative writing are exercises in learning how to get out of the way of the work, and let it come naturally. The student will learn to maintain faith in his or her ability to write, and how to tap into the joy of writing at any time!

Have you always wanted to write stories, poems, or plays, but don't know where to start? Treat yourself to a little time with a teacher who has a degree specializing in creative writing!

This course is open to all levels and ages – yes, children are welcome too, because writing can also be oral! Bring your writing for a review together, or come with nothing but your ideas and leave with the result of a brainstorming session, or even a story outline to complete! A longer-term project? No problem, I'd be delighted to follow your progress. Whatever you want to do, you can achieve it, with a little time and effort!

💻 Videoconference courses, from the orientation cycle to the final year of high school.

There's a phrase I hear in almost every first session: "In class I understand, but when I'm faced with the worksheet I don't know where to start."

It's not a question of academic level. It's that no one has ever taught students to recognize the type of problem they're facing. One function exercise looks like another, but the method isn't the same—and until this sorting happens automatically, each exercise starts from scratch. This sorting is what I work on first, even before reviewing the lesson.

🎓 I hold a Master's degree in Operations Research (applied mathematics) and have been tutoring mathematics for 5 years. I have worked with numerous students in the Swiss system, as well as in French, Belgian, and international programs.

📚 What I cover, canton by canton

The vocabulary varies from one canton to another, so let's be precise:

✏Geneva and Fribourg — orientation cycle (grades 9 to 11 HarmoS), preparation for entry into secondary school, then the four years of secondary school up to graduation
✏Vaud — pre-gymnasium and general tracks, preparation for the ECR exams, transition to gymnasium, then the three years of gymnasium
✏Neuchâtel — cycle 3, then high school
✏Valais — orientation cycle, then college
Preparation for the Matura exam, all specific options

🔍 How I work

1️⃣ The first sessions are mainly aimed at assessing the level of the student in order to identify the shortcomings observed.

2️⃣ Then we make a plan to fill those gaps: number of hours of work needed, parts of the lessons to focus on, lots of training and development exercises, etc.

3️⃣ We make sure to stay in regular contact with the student's class teacher to monitor their progress and align our work with what is being taught in class.

4️⃣ Then I provide exams similar to what may be offered in class.

5️⃣ Upon request, I write a monthly report to keep parents informed of their child's level throughout the course.

✨ Why this profession

My favorite moment is when a student starts explaining their approach aloud without me having asked anything. It means they're no longer trying to guess what I expect—they're thinking. The rest always follows.
