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!

The objective is that: the learner masters the English language (🎧listening-comprehension,🎤 conversation, 📚 reading, grammar-pronunciation, writing...). It helps him to have language skills like native speakers. 🥇

At the same time, the learner will be 🚴‍♀️dynamic and well supervised by professional tutors who listen.
The atmosphere is distinguished: 🔥learning, interaction, no routine, no stress.

The learning tools used; videos, audios, texts, articles, images, games, stories...

We are happy to help both adults and pupils/students. If you want to learn the English language (reading, grammar, oral conversation, written production,...) or you have homework to do, or competitions/tests to take, 🏆 contact us :)

Hello everyone!
I'm Giorgia and I come from Torino, Italy.
I offer my native knowledge of Italian to any of you, who wants to discover this beautiful language.

I teach for all levels, from very beginners to advanced speakers, passing through amateurs or simply curious of any age. I can also help with university exams and school works/assignments.
Being a pianist and a piano teacher, I already have lots of experience with teaching and pedagogical approach with the whole range of ages.

The lesson is intended to meet the student needs: the focus can be on the grammar, conversation or literature. In case of a middle-level speaker, the lesson will cover all four language's abilities: listening, speaking, writing and reading. My suggestion of a well planned lesson is, for any level, to divide it into two parts: grammar first and then conversation (covering all the abilities mentioned above).

Thank you for your attention and looking forward to meeting you !!

Hi, I'm Paola and I'm a graduate in Italian Literature and I also have a master's degree in Teaching Italian to Foreigners.
During my time at university, I gave private lessons to Erasmus students in Italy. That experience further strengthened my interest in teaching. For many years, I have been giving individual Italian lessons in Amsterdam and online to students of various levels. Whether you want to learn or improve your Italian, I am happy to help you.
I use a book that I integrate with different materials. Conversation is very important, but so is listening and understanding a text.
The price for 2 people is higher of course, so send mj a message for more information.

A presto!

I'm a Swiss citizen with a background in banking and wealth management, plus years of experience in recruiting. I've coached candidates specifically for job interviews in Germany and Switzerland — from the initial application all the way to a successful offer.

Unlike a typical language teacher or generic career coach, I understand both sides of the process: how hiring managers in the DACH region actually think and decide, which answers land well, and the typical blind spots international candidates miss — both linguistic and cultural.

What you can expect:

Tailored preparation for your specific interview (industry, role, company)
Realistic interview simulations with direct, honest feedback
Sharpening your self-presentation, body language, and answer strategy
Support with language nuances if German isn't your native language
Insight into cultural expectations in the German and Swiss job markets (punctuality, communication style, salary negotiation)

Whether you're applying to the DACH job market for the first time, or you've had several rejections and want to know what's actually missing — I'll help you show up convincingly when it counts.

Ich bin Schweizer Bürger mit Hintergrund im Banking und Wealth Management sowie langjähriger Erfahrung im Recruiting. Seit Jahren coache ich Kandidat/-innen gezielt auf Vorstellungsgespräche für Stellen in Deutschland und der Schweiz vor — von der ersten Bewerbung bis zum erfolgreichen Abschluss.

Anders als klassische Sprachlehrer oder allgemeine Karriereberater kenne ich beide Seiten des Prozesses: Ich weiss, wie Personalverantwortliche im DACH-Raum tatsächlich denken und entscheiden, welche Antworten überzeugen und welche typischen Stolpersteine internationale Bewerber übersehen — sprachlich wie kulturell.

Das erwartet dich:

Individuelle Vorbereitung auf dein konkretes Vorstellungsgespräch (Branche, Rolle, Unternehmen)
Simulation von echten Interviewsituationen mit direktem, ehrlichem Feedback
Optimierung deiner Selbstpräsentation, Körpersprache und Antwortstrategie
Unterstützung bei sprachlichen Feinheiten, falls Deutsch nicht deine Muttersprache ist
Einblick in kulturelle Erwartungen im deutschen und Schweizer Arbeitsmarkt (Pünktlichkeit, Kommunikationsstil, Gehaltsverhandlung)

Egal ob du dich zum ersten Mal auf dem DACH-Arbeitsmarkt bewirbst oder nach mehreren Absagen wissen willst, was wirklich fehlt — ich helfe dir, im entscheidenden Moment überzeugend aufzutreten.

Extra information for the student:

Sitzungen finden online statt (Zoom, Google Meet oder Microsoft Teams) — bitte für stabile Internetverbindung, funktionierendes Mikrofon/Kamera und ruhige Umgebung sorgen.
Bitte vor der ersten Sitzung die Stellenausschreibung (falls vorhanden), deinen Lebenslauf und das Datum des geplanten Interviews mitteilen.
Ideal ist mindestens 1 Woche Vorlauf vor einem echten Vorstellungsgespräch, um genug Zeit für Übung und Anpassung zu haben.
Bitte mindestens 24 Stunden im Voraus stornieren oder verschieben.
