I have BA in South-Slavic comparative literature, specialized in Serbian literature.
Also, I have MA in Serbian literature.
But, even though my first love is Serbian language and literature, I'm highly interested in all aspects of written content, especially in Russian and English literature.

Serbian for Foreigners - Srpski za strance: learn about Serbian tradition and language!

21 £ /h

Zdravo, kako ste! Ja sam Tamara, drago mi je!
If you are having difficulties understanding that initial greeting, no worries, I'm here for you!
I'm teaching Serbian language for Foreigners more than 3 years and Serbian language to native speakers 3+ years.
I'm chatty, communicative and well-organized.

I have 2 methods for teaching:
1) traditional classes where you learn grammar.
2) Language Buddy style, those are chatting lessons, much shorter than traditional ones, focused on communication (we are chatting about some regular, everyday topic). We are trying not to use any other language but Serbian with this one! :)

If you are interested in this kind of getting more information, let me know! Pozdrav!
If you want to know more about Serbia, our tradition and promaja, let me know!

I offer individual Serbian lessons for everyone interested in learning the language. The lessons are adapted to the level of the student and the focus of the lessons is based on student ́s wishes, preferences or needs.
The material for the lessons is prepared by myself with the help of books and in cooperation with the student.

I am native Serbian speaker and linguist by education, thus I have necessary knowledge, methodology and experience for language teaching.
I have Masters degree in French and Romance languages and literatures from the University of Ljubljana and Université libre de Bruxelles. During and after my studies, I was offering individual and also group language lessons, among others also Serbian language lessons in the European Parliament.

I have fifteen years of experience in teaching, writing and research. I am passionate, but I like methodical and structured work. I always organize my sessions more or less in the same way (an introduction / revision of a few minutes, a high point for the main activities and an end / review to review the corrections made during the session, express myself on the difficulties and plan for the future...) For the same reason, I recommend the use of 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 !

Italian translator and FLE teacher gives Italian lessons for all levels.

I help you pronounce the words well, take care of your spelling and make you appreciate the grammar of Dante's language.
I am also available for courses in Italian literature and to revise your texts and essays in Italian.

My courses are personalized and adapted to the level and expectations of the students. Speaking is the most practiced skill during my lessons, as is comprehension. The material offered is created by myself: notions of grammar and exercises corrected in PDF format, videos on phonetics, list of idiomatic expressions and collocations (IT-FR) but also extra content on the culture and dialects of Italy. Cinema sessions can also be organized if the student so wishes.

I introduce myself:
I am Veronica, I am 26 years old and I am Italian. Between 2014 and 2018 I lived in Liège, where I studied Translation and Interpretation. I continued my studies in Spain, where I obtained a Masters in teaching the French language. I have been teaching Italian since 2014 and I also worked for an Italian school for two years.

So let's go?

Doctor of French literature and associate professor of modern literature, I offer private French lessons for academic support (middle school level, high school level, bachelor's, master's and doctorate level in modern literature, preparation for the CAPES and Agrégation en Lettres Modernes competitive exams), in French as a foreign language or to support your professional projects.

Whether it is for a refresher course in French (grammar, conjugation, spelling, etc.), for help with writing (cover letter, communication elements, dissertation, essay, etc.), oral expression (presentation, project presentation, interview), literary text analysis or for exam preparation (brevet, baccalaureate, CAPES and Agrégation competitions, university exams), I can provide you with the support, organization and methodology necessary to lead you to the success of your project.

These private lessons can be practiced at your home or by videoconference.

This class offers insight into the Croatian/Serbian/Bosnian language. The students learn how to write, speak and comprehend the Croatian/Serbian/Bosnian language. It is possible to focus on all three languages or the characteristics of only one of the three languages.
Students will learn how to write clear and well-developed multi-paragraph essays using various methods through the process of planning, drafting, revising, editing and peer reviewing. Through individual and (sometimes) group activities, students work on improving pronunciation, practising conversation strategies and delivering oral presentations.

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,

Katarina

The courses are aimed at high school students, literature students, and adults learning French (FLE). Through courses tailored to their needs, learners will consolidate their French skills, either from a strictly linguistic or literary perspective.

As for the language, we will be able to work on different aspects: grammar, conjugation, syntax rules, written and oral expression.

More experienced learners, in rhetoric and at university, will be able to consolidate their skills in written expression and literary analysis.

It is about progressing realistically and at the learner's own pace, and developing methods that allow for long-term improvement.

As a language teacher with many years of experience, I prepare children in elementary and secondary schools for tests, knowledge tests, graduation exams, etc.
Through an interesting and adaptable way of working, we manage together to master the material in an interesting way that remains remembered even after many years.
Serbian grammar will no longer be a problem, and A's are a given when working with me.

My name is Zina, I graduated with a Master's degree in Literary Studies from the University of Bordeaux Montaigne (25 years old) and I offer private literature lessons.
Whether it's to increase your knowledge of literature, refine your analysis of literary techniques, or prepare for a specific exam in this field (e.g., baccalaureate, literature entrance exams...), you can count on me!
Indeed, my three years of preparatory literary classes specializing in Classical Literature (hypokhâgne-khâgne-khûbe) rewarded by a double admission to the ENS Ulm competition as well as my 6 months in Argentina as a French language assistant at the university allowed me to acquire skills in various disciplines, teaching methods as well as fluency in foreign languages.
I have been giving private lessons for 4 years now, to students ranging from CM2 to Master's level; this diversity of profiles has allowed me to develop teaching and supervision methods adapted to the needs and paces of each individual!
For more information, please feel free to contact me!

As an author with a Master's degree in literature and over two years of teaching experience, I offer mentoring services to writers who aspire to write a book, regardless of genre: thriller, fantasy, autofiction, autobiographical novel, romance, etc.

My role as a mentor is to guide you in your narrative choices and teach you the art of narrative structure and sentence construction. I will support you from the very beginning of your project, and also act as a beta reader during the final stages of your novel before it is submitted to publishers.

Whether it's creating a universe, submitting to publishers, writing a letter of intent, a synopsis, or developing film or literary projects, I help you refine your project so that it reaches its full potential.

I advocate a creative and relaxed approach. No silly questions: mistakes are the foundation of your learning. Without them, you won't be able to progress.

I enjoy designing activities that stimulate thinking, encourage creativity, and allow students to progress at their own pace. I am also sensitive to learning disabilities.

I adapt easily to schedules and needs. Naturally organized and independent, I am proficient in the digital tools used in education and I create my own teaching materials while guaranteeing high-quality schoolwork.

French is a complex and rich language, both in its grammar and its culture, and a little help is always welcome to learn its subtleties!

This course is designed for all ages and levels, as it is tailored primarily to your needs. We can cover all aspects of the French language, from early reading skills in primary school to argumentative paragraphs at university, and even develop your literary knowledge as an adult. It is also open to English speakers looking to learn French as a foreign language.
