English (Language and Literature) and Essay Writing Skills for all ages

From 22.31 £ /h

I specialize in tutoring English (language and literature), specifically in regards to the IB. My goal is to aid students in studying efficiently and actually enjoying it rather than feeling overwhelmed. I will provide information on how to prioritize their subjects and study for each without being put under pressure.

Furthermore, I will give tips on essay writing skills to ensure they write an essay that will gain them as many marks as possible. When it comes to essay writing, the more simple your structure is, the easier it is to express your thoughts and therefore, gain the points required in the exams and/or assignments.

I will give students learning goals and assign homework if I feel that it is needed however, I will not add to their workload for unnecessary reasons.

About Me

I am an Iranian who grew up in the UAE and obtained an IB Diploma in 2019. During my studies I had to tutor several fellow students as well as younger (GCSE) students. Throughout my experience I faced the challenge of having to understand what study methods work for which students and when I figured it out I was able to adapt my teaching methods in order to tutor in the most effective manner.

I would describe myself as an enthusiastic tutor that will make you do a lot of efficient learning in a short period of time. In regards to my teaching method, I can simplify content that can sometimes be overcomplicated in textbooks in order to allow the student to gain a more in-depth understanding which will subsequently allow more intake of knowledge.

Education

I have obtained an IB diploma in high school at GEMS Wellington International School in Dubai.

I am currently studying a bachelors in European Law at Maastricht University

Experience / Qualifications

During high school I mentored younger kids (year 7-9) with getting used to studying secondary school information.

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.

I am a qualified and experienced mathematics tutor. Graduated from the Free University of Brussels in 2011, I started my career by teaching remedial courses in different schools in Brussels. I then specialized in individual academic support by following educational training at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. I have been giving private mathematics lessons daily for over ten years.

The students who follow my private lessons benefit from personalized support. The first session is devoted to an in-depth assessment of the student's mathematical knowledge. The objective is to detect its weak points and understand their origin in order to adapt my courses to its needs. I develop a tailor-made remediation program for each of my students aimed at filling each of their gaps. Over the course of the sessions, the student builds a solid foundation for learning and regains self-confidence. At the same time, I help him acquire a work methodology that allows him to gradually become autonomous in his studies.

I have a thorough knowledge of the mathematics curriculum for middle and high school (from 6th to 12th grade). I am also qualified to support students in preparing for international exams such as the SAT, the OMPT, and the International Baccalaureate (IB) in all its variations: Analysis and Approaches (AA SL/HL) and Applications and Interpretation (AI SL/HL).

Throughout my years of training, I studied and developed numerous techniques that facilitate learning mathematics. The strength of my teaching approach lies in my ability to explain, in simple terms, anything a student finds complicated. I am passionate about this profession because it offers me the opportunity to guide struggling students toward success. It is a true pleasure to see them progress and rediscover their connection with the fascinating world of mathematics.

I offer private tutoring in Paris (at the student's home) or remotely (online). My online lessons take place on an interactive whiteboard. This whiteboard is specifically designed to facilitate student/teacher interaction online. Thanks to this teaching tool, my online lessons are just as effective as in-person lessons. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to participate.

Frustrated with studying Spanish and feeling like you're not making progress? It's time to speak with confidence!
Most people study endless lists of grammar and vocabulary, but when push comes to shove, they freeze up and can't hold a real conversation. Sounds familiar, right?

My classes are designed to break through that barrier. I have specialized training in teaching Spanish as a Foreign Language (ELE), and as a multilingual speaker, I know exactly the shortcuts and techniques that accelerate learning. You won't memorize the language; you'll understand it, use it, and speak it.

Why does this course work where others fail?
You speak from minute one: Here, you are the protagonist. 80% of the class is focused on you expressing yourself, applying what you've learned, and gaining real fluency.

Logical, not boring grammar: I teach you grammar through everyday use and practical examples. You'll understand the "why" of things without having to memorize abstract rules.

A method tailored to your mind: As a polyglot, I know how the brain processes a new language. I use techniques that will help you think in Spanish, reducing mental translation time.

Materials that interest you: Forget outdated textbooks. We'll use current articles, real-life everyday situations, and interactive resources made just for you.

What are you going to achieve with me?
Beginners: Overcome your fear, build your first sentences with complete confidence, and master everyday situations.

Intermediate/Advanced: Eliminate those repetitive mistakes that hinder your fluency, perfect your pronunciation, and expand your vocabulary to sound natural and sophisticated.

Conversational Spanish: Debate, give opinions and gain the mental agility needed to speak with native speakers without hesitation.

Your goal is my goal
Whether you're looking to learn for personal growth, independent travel, or professional goals, we'll design a straightforward action plan that optimizes your time and focuses only on what you need to progress quickly.

Weekly spaces are limited. Click to book your first lesson today and let's speak Spanish from day one!

I tailor my lessons to your specific needs and goals, whether it’s exam preparation, proofreading, homework help, improving conversation skills, or simply becoming more confident speaking English in everyday life.

As someone who has been learning German since the age of 12, I understand how challenging and sometimes intimidating it can be to learn another language.

I focus on making English feel natural, approachable, and enjoyable, with lessons adapted to each student’s interests, pace, and learning style.
