Holder of a Master's degree in Letters and endowed with a solid experience in private lessons, I provide French lessons for students wishing to:
- consolidate their bases in grammar, spelling
- improve their language skills (allophone students)
- improve their speaking skills (conversation classes)
-profect the written expression
- prepare for ECR exams
- prepare for the written examinations at the end of the studies (maturity, certificate of completion)
- help with the writing of works of maturity (or other works of end of studies), of dissertation
- work on argumentative texts
- acquire a method to analyze literary texts
- learn how to perform bibliographic research

The course material is a Google Docs document that I create in which my explanations, possible links, exercises appear. By reading it regularly, progress will be faster. It can also be used in addition to other documents (files printed by school teachers and/or books) and has many advantages: automatic updating, downloadable on tablets and smartphones, simultaneous monitoring of what is writing.

For help with writing:

The objective is above all to acquire effective tools. The student will thus be able to learn to structure his ideas, argue coherently (and convincingly) and enrich his vocabulary. It is essential for me to have written work from the student between each lesson.

For analyzes of oral literary texts:

In order to optimize the time available (and to put ourselves in conditions closest to oral exams), we choose together an extract from a work that the student will have previously prepared before the lesson. This would take around 20 minutes at most, and ideally just a little before the meeting time. If necessary, I have the habit of taking a paragraph at random which would serve as a basis for analyzing a passage.

For the corrections of end of studies work:

so that the meeting with the student is at the most profitable, I ask him to send me his writings before the meeting.

Apart from my presence with the student, any course involves a preparation time before and after the lesson, including the work that I correct. My goal is to design an individualized course, so I take the time to write detailed comments on corrected work or tips to ensure maximum success for everyone.

For example, an editorial correction can easily be the subject of a detailed commentary of 4 typewritten pages.

For adults (FLE):

In order to optimally prepare the first ones, I take the initiative to inform myself in advance of their objectives / expectations. Whether to practice speaking in everyday life, the professional world or to practice oral presentations, I prepare either PPT or technical sheets in advance that I send by mail ( after booking on the website).

The other alternative is to make a PV of the course that I send (or that I print). Giving importance to keeping a written record on the one hand to better memorize the topics covered, on the other hand to better assimilate the spelling.

Of a general nature, a concrete situation that responds to the learner's needs is the starting point. From this situation, I address the essential grammatical points.

Learning Portuguese Language and Literature in a creative and dynamic way is essential for building critical thinking, confident communication, and a deep connection to culture. When lessons come alive through exploration, discussion, and creative expression, students don't just learn the language — they expand their imagination, strengthen their voice, and develop the ability to interpret the world with clarity and insight.
Tailor‐made classes are essential in high schools because they meet students where they are, not where a generic curriculum assumes they should be.
They allow teachers to adapt content, pace, and methods to different learning profiles, cultural backgrounds, and academic goals. This leads to:

• Higher engagement, because students feel seen and understood
• Stronger academic progress, thanks to targeted support and challenge
• Greater confidence, as learners experience success in ways that match their strengths
• More inclusive classrooms, where diversity is not an obstacle but a resource

Learning Portuguese language and literature in a creative and dynamic way is essential for developing critical thinking, confident communication, and a deep connection to the culture. When lessons come alive through exploration, debate, and creative expression, students do more than just learn the language—they expand their imaginations, strengthen their voices, and develop the ability to interpret the world with clarity and discernment.
Tailor-made courses are essential in high school because they adapt to students as they are, and not to a standardized program that does not take their differences into account.
They allow teachers to tailor the content, pace, and methods to each student's learning style, cultural background, and objectives. This translates into:

• Increased motivation, because students feel recognized and valued
• Stronger progress, thanks to targeted support
• Increased confidence, since everyone can succeed according to their strengths
• More inclusive classrooms, where diversity becomes an asset

A writer with a degree in Greek philology and literature, I teach ancient and modern Greek as well as creative writing. I am pursuing a doctorate in Modern Greek literature (UoA).

I am a philologist, poet, and singer with a deep love for France and its culture. I want to offer my students the opportunity to discover Greece through its music and literature, from a timeless perspective. My course emphasizes Greek heritage and culture, combining learning with enjoyment.

With extensive experience, I teach Greek using songs, poems, games, and texts to make the lessons more engaging and enjoyable. I insist that we speak Greek from the very first lesson!
Depending on each student's objectives, I ensure that they learn useful everyday expressions so that, if they go to Greece, they will be able to communicate with ease.
