Close analysis in poetry: for students and writers
Close analysis is something you will need whether you are taking English literature exams or whether you are thinking of writing your own poems. It always helps to know how to analyse one first. In this class, you will learn key tips on how to improve your close analysis, specifically working on spotting and defining literary devices while also making links to how they function. Focusing on the structure, tone, and narrative voice, you will learn how to dissect a poem, speak about it, or write about it, effectively adding a new layer to your argument. It will be an accessible and concrete way to address these abstract concepts of literature, helping you further your knowledge in the world of poetry.

Learn the French and French culture with a Native.
I have five years of experience as a French tutor with young teenagers and adult, from France and from abroad. My students would say about me that I am kind, patient, dedicating but demanding. You'll have to practice seriously but I'll make sure not make you feel overwhelmed.
You'll learn to speak, read and understand the French, and will have the opportunity to dive into the French culture and literature. If you're an absolute beginner, don't worry you'll soon be able to speak fluently.

English Curriculum - year 1 through to year 11 (GCSE)
As a tutor, I understand the importance of English in the overall development of your child. English is not just a subject but a skill that is required in almost every aspect of life. Hence, it is crucial to have a good grasp of the language, and I am here to make sure that happens.
For primary school pupils, we will start with the basics of grammar and comprehension. We will focus on building a strong foundation by working on topics such as sentence structure, parts of speech and basic reading skills, including phonics and spelling. Through interactive and enjoyable activities, we will ensure that your child understands the concepts thoroughly.
As your child progresses to secondary school, the English curriculum becomes more challenging. However, I am confident that we will tackle the literature and language elements with ease. At this stage, we will introduce literature, including Shakespeare's plays and poetry, into our lessons. We will not only analyse the texts but also make connections to the real world, thereby developing critical thinking skills.
In conclusion, my primary goal is to help your child become proficient in the English language. Together, we will build a strong foundation for their language skills and expand their horizons through literature. I am excited to embark on this journey with your child and look forward to helping them achieve academic excellence.

Hello,
Currently, different contexts lead me to practice my profession as a State-certified Professor & Professional Coach, with ViPs, CEOs, people in active life, high-level athletes, students..
As well as Primary & Secondary students who wish to enter the International Class, in particular at CiV de Valbonne, Collège de Roquefort-Les-Pins...
Also, I practice face-to-face as well as remotely by videoconference; in France as in Europe.
Thus, during these two decades, I have implemented proven methodological approaches.
Some borrowed from the Theatre, such as the Davis method (mind mappings / colors); others in Professional Coaching (my specialty), such as Mental Preparation, Cognitive Remediation, Emotional Intelligence, 4th Generation NLP.
Knowing that the main objective here is to establish a specific framework, so as to accommodate a methodology adapted to each of the learners. In order to motivate them in the long term, in particular by developing a certain agility at home. For now, as for their future, when I will no longer be present at their side to accompany them.
Finally, Professor from General Education, mainly in scientific subjects, I propose to accompany you to become an actor in the construction of your learning path, especially in this period so singular but oh so rich in its opportunities and challenges to raise.
Besides that, I practice an hourly rate within the framework of the CESU.
In particular in order to benefit from a tax credit immediately within the framework of the CESU +. Or up to 50% less depending on your income.
Please contact me for more information regarding your situation.
See you soon Corinne.

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.
