Whether you’re learning German for work, daily life or integration, I’ll help you build confidence step by step: with a clear structure, lots of speaking practice and explanations that make grammar feel logical.

- In our first session, we define your goals and assess your level (A1–C1).
- Each lesson combines speaking + listening + targeted grammar + vocabulary (always tailored to your needs).
- You get personalized materials, practical homework (optional), and clear feedback so you see progress quickly.

What we can focus on:

- Everyday Swiss situations (appointments, shopping, small talk, phone calls)
- Workplace German (emails, meetings, presentations, negotiation basics)
- Pronunciation & “speaking flow”
- Writing support and corrections
- Exam preparation (if needed)

Clarity & Self-Leadership Mentoring: Reflective Conversations for Growth

58.97 £ /h

A calm, structured space to think clearly and move forward.

These sessions are for people who want honest reflection, better self-leadership, and practical next steps without overthinking or pressure.

What we can work on:

- Clarity on goals, priorities, and “what matters most”
- Decision-making (when you feel stuck or torn between options)
- Building confidence & self-trust
- Habits, routines, and simple accountability systems
- Communication: boundaries, difficult conversations, authenticity
- Social/dating dynamics, presence, and “showing up” with more ease
- Transitions (new job, new city, study stress, identity shifts)

How sessions work:

- Short check-in + define the focus for the session
- I listen closely, reflect back patterns and ask targeted questions
- We turn insights into one clear action plan (small, doable steps)
- Optional follow-up notes / accountability for the next session

Important note:
This is coaching/mentoring, not psychotherapy. If you’re dealing with severe anxiety, depression, trauma or a crisis, I strongly recommend working with a licensed professional.

I offer you a new learning experience.

The focus is on practical application and theory is only introduced where intuition reaches its limits.

Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, my tailor-made lessons will accelerate your language acquisition in a positive learning environment.

You can book a complete course with regular sessions or individual lessons to overcome a specific problem, such as pronunciation or a particular point in grammar.

Learning a foreign language is not a linear process that consists of memorising a list of words, and speaking a foreign language is not an oral translation exercise.

There are two types of approaches to acquiring knowledge:

When asked what year follows 1999, you can immediately answer 2000 without having to think for a long time and, above all, without having memorised each number individually, starting with 1, 2, 3 ... You know that numbers are formed according to a certain pattern. With only ten digits, you can form an infinite number of numbers and always know which number comes next.

When it comes to the alphabet, words and sentences, it's more or less the same, but school pedagogy, school textbooks and regular lessons still follow the rote learning approach. In the lessons I propose, you will learn to use patterns because this is more efficient and faster.

Learning is easy, but unlearning bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible.

My offer is aimed at both young people and adults who want to learn German or improve their knowledge without wasting time on nonsensical school methods.

I offer individual or group lessons for German. The methods are based on cognitive science and, in particular, comparative linguistics. My flexible programme can be tailored to your individual needs. The programme focuses on your independence in spontaneous conversations in real life.

What is particularly important to me:

motivating my students and help them establish a learning rhythm;
encouraging their creativity;
helping them become more familiar with the language;
teaching them the letters and their sounds;
strengthening their memory by training their phonological loop;
teaching sentence building plans instead of memorising sentences;
explaining how language works so that my students can become independent as quickly as possible.

I look forward to meeting you.

For the past two decades, I've had the privilege of tutoring in both French and English. My students have ranged in age, background, and origin, spanning children, teenagers, adults, professionals, and even seniors aged 85 and above.

You might wonder why I teach both languages. Well, I am bilingual, with American and Swiss/French roots, and I currently reside in Ireland. This unique blend of experiences equips me with a strong and relevant teaching approach. I possess an intimate understanding of both cultures, enabling me to tailor my classes to the specific needs of my students.

My teaching journey began during my time studying social work in French-speaking Switzerland. I started offering private French and English lessons to supplement my income, and I quickly discovered my passion for it. Even after graduating and embarking on a full-time career, I couldn't bear to give up this rewarding activity. I cherished the opportunity to connect with diverse individuals and assist them in achieving their language goals.

In my teaching methodology, interactivity takes center stage. I employ a variety of engaging learning tools, including photos, newspaper articles, music, videos, and more. My approach is highly adaptable, with a focus on addressing each student's unique priorities. Some seek to refine their pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary, while others require assistance with presentations or speeches for school or work. Some simply aspire to acquire a new language to enrich their general knowledge. I also specialize in teaching younger children, a testament to my educational background and experience.

What you will gain from my courses extends beyond impeccable pronunciation and enhanced vocabulary and grammar. You'll also acquire a profound understanding of the culture associated with each language. When speaking a language, it's essential to appreciate the lifestyle, traditions, and heritage of the nations where it thrives. French and English are spoken as primary languages in numerous countries worldwide, each with its own unique accent and cultural nuances. The learning process is limitless!

In addition to my language instruction, I'm a genealogist and host spiritual (non-religious) seminars in the beautiful West of Ireland. My passion for vegetarian and vegan cuisine adds a flavorful dimension to my life. Furthermore, I hold a degree in Early Childhood Education and have operated a private "Before & Afterschool" facility along with Summer Camps catering to children aged 4 to 12 for many years.

I am genuinely excited about the prospect of meeting and working with you!

➤ Learn French with a successful technique: the main objective is to acquire bases or improve your level in French (written & oral: pronunciation, comprehension, language construction, communication, conjugation, grammar & vocabulary). It is also to understand the cultural specificities of Switzerland & France.

➤ Whether it is for work or leisure, the classes are adjusted to the initial diagnosis and to your needs.

➤ The method focuses on your own goals and:

• are adjusted to your own rhythm, with (funny) oral and writing exercises
• help to improve your everyday/practical skills
• on interactivity: you learn much more quickly with private sessions and you develop listening and vocabulary skills in an effective way
• these classes are customized courses to create an environment adjusted to each person, to meet your individual needs & requirements, and to learn French effectively.

➤ Statistically, you will be able to notice that you have progressed with these private classes, after 2 or 3 classes (based on our 2023 survey).

As a Ukrainian teacher for foreigners with varying language proficiency levels, I hold a unique and pivotal role in the realm of education.
I am in touch with my students almost all the time. We are not only practicing grammar and vocabulary, but we are also experiencing a love of Ukrainian culture together. There is no place for constant boring theory and mindless rote memorization. My values are trust, understanding and love.

My dedication to imparting the Ukrainian language to a diverse group of learners has shaped an identity, fostering a rich tapestry of experiences, skills, and qualities that make an invaluable asset in the field of education.

I love seeing and participating in my students' interest in the Ukrainian language. What warms my heart the most is their curiosity about every detail and exception. Especially when they want to look for new things for themselves and then tell me about what they have found with a twinkle in their eye.

Learning German can be easier: I support children (approx. 6-12 years old) with reading, writing, and spelling, patiently, systematically, and in a positive learning environment. We first work together to identify where they're struggling, and then practice exactly what's currently important for school. It's important to me that your child not only completes tasks "correctly," but truly understands how to learn more confidently and independently. We celebrate small steps forward, because they make the biggest difference.
