From 51.8 £ /h

I was a Dutch teacher in secondary education for many years. Currently I have emigrated and I am looking for work to do from home. There are many students who find Dutch boring. They are also right about that. However, it is a compulsory subject for which you better pass. Together with the student, I set realistic goals that we will then achieve. I will provide support and explanation until the achieved goal has been achieved.

I myself work a lot in English and can also guide non-native speakers in learning Dutch.

My prices depend on the financial situation of the student. Someone who has just moved to the Netherlands has less to spend than a student whose parents both have jobs. The prices are therefore in consultation.

Coaching Career guidance for students and teachers

51.8 £ /h

Unfortunately, young people sometimes get stuck in the current education system. Usually this is because they have lost structure, fail, and do not see the usefulness of school. Together with the student / pupil, I will look at what the problems are and how we can solve them.

From my work as a school leader, I have also guided many teachers and other school leaders in their careers. What are you stuck in now, how can we tackle that, what do you really want, what does your future look like. I would like to help you!

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.

Presentation :
As a former National Education teacher and BAC examiner, I know how to make French enjoyable for struggling students who don't connect with the subject.
Whether it is to explain how to make a dissertation pleasant to read, how to organize a composed commentary or read one's text clearly, distinctly and posed for an oral.
French is not only a subject, French is difficult and requires effort, but these are rewarded!

Method:
My students have always made significant progress, going from an average of 5 per year to having an average of 14 in the French baccalaureate. My last one to send me his results went from 6 in writing and 9 in speaking to 15 in writing and 17 in speaking (EAF 2024 session).
I have been preparing classes for these tests for years, I am up to date on methodology and programs.
My services combine the experience of teaching French and the vivacity of a young teacher who succeeds in motivating the most recalcitrant students.
My students have always made significant progress and above all, go to tests with confidence in their abilities.

I adapt to your level and I give exercises to do for the next course (finish a comment, make an introductory essay ...).
I am nice and enthusiastic but nevertheless serious: you will make satisfactory progress because you will work for 😉

Spanish is a fun and interesting language to learn. Not only does it allow you to travel through Spain and speak with one of the funniest and most enjoyable populations in Europe, visit new amazing places, and enjoy real Spanish food, but it is also the second most spoken language in the whole world!

If you are a beginner, I will help you with the basics of the Spanish language, for you to start understanding the language and the grammar, while being able to say a few sentences and words.

If you can already speak some Spanish, no problem! We can practice the language by choosing any conversation topic you like to reach the objective you desire.

Join me in this journey, I can't wait to meet you!

Spanish is the third most spoken language in the world, with nearly 500 million speakers. This class is not about perfection or memorizing endless grammar rules. It’s about feeling comfortable speaking Spanish and using it in real conversations. The focus is on communication, confidence, and practice—so you can speak naturally, understand others, and participate in conversations without overthinking every word.

Trust me, I know what is to learn a language that is not your own. I got you.

My name is Beryl and I am a primary school teacher, retraining to become a speech therapist. During my studies, I miss teaching: I would be delighted to help you improve your spelling, or more broadly your French (reading aloud, grammar, conjugation...)!

My courses are suitable for all ages, all school levels, and all levels of mastery (from primary school to higher education, or even for adults already in the workforce - or not - wishing to progress).

I have excellent spelling, which was reinforced during my teaching master's degree, during classroom teaching (teaching helps to master it even better), and during my entry into speech therapy school.

I offer lexical spelling (how words are spelled) and grammatical spelling (agreements), but also reading aloud, grammar, conjugation... according to your needs.

I adapt to your request: "surface" or "push," more training or explanations...
We can start from a French exercise you have to do, from one of your texts written independently or from one of your texts to read, from a dictation, from a type of agreement or from a list of words that is causing you problems... or from nothing, and I will offer you a short "diagnostic" dictation or reading.

I don't really have a fixed session structure because I adapt to each student. However, I always start with your request, so you'll begin the lesson. Throughout the lesson, I'll build on what you bring to the table and what you find challenging (or not).

I have many tools in my teacher's bag (illustrated spelling, physical paths, mnemonic devices, word corpus, dictations, ease in creating tailor-made systematic dictations/exercises, ability to use AI to best adapt exercises, textbooks of various levels... and above all my ability to adapt to your request!).
I don't hesitate to think outside the box, to move away from "classic" methods, in order to bring what seems relevant to me... and I dare to change and propose something else if I find that it doesn't work!

As a primary school teacher, I know how to adapt to younger children and am familiar with the different stages of teaching and learning spelling. Through various other experiences, I also know how to provide adults with what they need, by putting myself at their level without the concepts being taught seeming childish.
The feedback from families at the school has always been very positive. I haven't had the opportunity to give private lessons yet, but I'm looking forward to it: I really enjoyed the APC (complementary educational activities) sessions where I could help 3 students gain confidence in themselves and their abilities, and progress from where they were.

I offer lessons via video call or at your home (Rennes).
Lessons can be one-off (if you're struggling with a particular concept) or more regular. My schedule is flexible and may vary from week to week.
[Courses available at 50% of the listed price, if at your home, via CESU (tax reduction)]

Feel free to contact me if you think I can help you!
Looking forward to getting in touch with you!

We will learn the Arabic letters (ا - ب - ت - ث - ج - ح - خ) and how to use them to form words. We will also learn the numbers (from 1 to 10), a grammatical rule about the parts of speech in Arabic, including definitions and examples, and some expressions for greetings and introductions.
