English in Secondary I/II is often the time when students must move from basic vocabulary to a true mastery of grammar and expression. It is also the time when some begin to fall behind, due to a lack of regular practice outside of school.
I offer private English lessons for Secondary I students, level A2 to B1. We work on grammar (verb tenses, structures, prepositions), thematic vocabulary, written expression (compositions, emails) and oral expression (conversation, pronunciation, listening comprehension).
I have a B2 level in English and I use it regularly. Lessons can be structured around the student's textbook, or take the form of freer conversation practice for students who need to gain fluency.
My approach is practical: fewer rules to memorize, more real-life situations. Language is learned by practicing it, and it's through making mistakes that we progress. I adapt to each student's level and pace.

A serious student in high school, I always felt comfortable in school, particularly in math, French, and English. I enjoy sharing my knowledge and have already helped classmates improve in these subjects.

I offer personalized support tailored to each student's needs: reviewing the school curriculum, homework help, test/exam preparation, or simply reinforcing the fundamentals. I adapt my method to each student's pace, with great patience. The goal is for the student to truly understand, not just memorize.

Available this summer and flexible with hours. Feel free to contact me to discuss your child's specific needs.

Hello! / Bonjour ! / Ciao! / Merhaba!

Are you looking to improve your English for university, career advancement, school exams, or everyday conversation? I am here to help you reach your goals with personalized, engaging, and highly effective lessons.

I am a Master's student at UNIL, holding a BA in English Literature and the Cambridge CELTA certification. I have over 5 years of professional teaching experience working with children, teenagers, and adults across all language levels (A1 to C2).

Because I speak French, Italian, and Turkish, I understand how different native speakers learn English and also have difficulties learning it. I can easily explain tricky grammar rules using comparisons you will actually understand!

What I Offer:
Academic Support: Help with school homework, gymnastics/maturité prep, or UNIL/EPFL university assignments.

Exam Preparation: Focused training for Cambridge (PET, FCE, CAE), IELTS, or TOEFL exams.

Conversation & Fluency: Boosting your confidence, perfecting your pronunciation, and expanding your vocabulary.

Business & Professional English: Interview prep, resume polishing, and professional presentation skills.

My Teaching Approach:
- No two students are the same. I tailor every single lesson to your specific pace, interests, and goals. I focus on creating a supportive, interactive environment where you feel completely comfortable making mistakes and growing your confidence.

Lessons can take place online, at the UNIL campus, or at a convenient location in Lausanne. Feel free to send me a message to discuss your goals. Let's make learning English enjoyable and stress-free!

Hello! My name is Allegra and I currently live in Lausanne. I am Italian and I offer language exchanges in Italian, but also in English, which I speak fluently after living in the United States.
The idea behind a language exchange is first and foremost to practice a language naturally, through conversation and everyday interactions. It's not necessarily a traditional lesson, but rather a pleasant opportunity to speak, ask questions, correct mistakes, and gain confidence in speaking. I can adapt to each person's level and needs, whether it's to improve conversation, pronunciation, vocabulary, or simply to have the chance to practice regularly.
I already have experience in this area, particularly with children living abroad in Italian or American families. I have worked with children who wanted to maintain contact with their parents' language and practice it in a natural and fun way. Therefore, I also offer conversation sessions for children, tailored to their age and level.
I am a responsible, reliable, and patient person, and I enjoy creating a relaxed atmosphere where learning can take place without pressure. I am primarily available in the late afternoon and on weekends.
Looking forward to getting to know you and chatting with you!
