Student of Scientific Terminal offers help for school work in French during this particular period. My goal is to be as attentive as possible to your expectations and I will be completely able to adapt.
I benefit from a great experience and have already been able to support many pupils of all ages (CE1, CM2, 6th, 5th, 4th, 3rd) whether it is for a particular subject or for more general help or simply to help motivation and confidence of the young person.

Hello everyone.

Graduated from a literary bac, and passionate about reading and the French language, I offer to help you in your literature courses.
It is sometimes difficult to define the methodology or the depth of the texts.

I can help you in the methodology, but also in the understanding of the texts in order to carry out good analyzes.

Feel free to contact me for more information!

Currently a 1st degree MEEF Master student, with the aim of becoming a school teacher, I am therefore passionate about teaching.
I also graduated with an LLCER English license, where I learned to develop my written and oral skills in the English language, as well as German, Spanish and Portuguese.

I have spent many stays in English-speaking countries (Ireland, USA), so I was able to develop my English (British) accent there. Today I continue to speak English on a daily basis, while watching films, series and documentaries in this language. So I continue to develop my skills.

I have been giving lessons for several years. I am open to any course proposal: grammar, expression, comprehension, theme, version, literature, phonology, ... I adapt according to your needs.

I might not have the answers to a question during our class, I'm honest, and then I'll tell you "I don't know." But I will do the research on my own to give you the answer in the next class.
The first lesson, or the first discussions, will be used to get to know each other and to understand what you want to improve.

Keep in mind that I am here only to guide you in your progress, but that you are the only one who can decide whether or not you want to progress. By taking the first step, deciding to take online courses is already a decision leading to progression in your knowledge of the language!

See you soon I hope for an English course!

Hello everyone,

I'm Cyprien, a 25-year-old language enthusiast from France. Having lived for a cumulative three years in New Zealand, South Korea and Japan, I perfected my English skills. My career also led me to study English, more specifically in marketing.

In addition to my international experience, I obtained an excellent TOEFL score. Today, as a private English teacher, I am delighted to share my passion and knowledge with you.

The English language is omnipresent in my daily life, and I am convinced that learning can be both enjoyable and rewarding. My teaching method is based on interaction, communication and the development of practical skills necessary for fluent use of the language. Whether you're a beginner or want to perfect your existing skills, I'm here to support you on your English learning journey, with a focus on marketing if that matches your interests.

Do not hesitate to contact me to discuss your language goals and start this adventure together.

Hope to meet you,

Cyprien

English is the most widely spoken language in the world, yet it is poorly taught in classes - middle school, high school, university, etc. If French is my mother tongue, I am also bilingual in English, I can speak it on a daily basis in other countries but I can also write stories in English - literature being my specialty.

In this course, I propose to learn English, whether at a beginner or already advanced level. I adapt to the needs of each person, if some want a more classic learning or others more fun. I also propose to have fun “creating” in English, written stories whose subject can be guided or free, stories played like theater or “role play”, scenarios etc.

The literature course will adapt to your needs and will aim to help you progress, to help you understand the mechanisms of French literature but also to show you all its beauty in a dynamic way!
So I give two-hour courses for this.

A course to learn Spanish based on documents from Hispanic and Latin American culture (films, music, literature, comics). A dynamic course, at your own pace. Immerse yourself in the world of Spanish: its culture, its stories, its musical richness.
