Dear apprentices,
I am French and fluent in the language. As it is my mother tongue, I studied French and English literature, a language I also speak. I studied in England for nine months and could therefore teach you the language as I learned it: happily and without great difficulty. I would be delighted to teach young students but also adults, whether you are a beginner or an intermediate.
Contact me :)
Extra information
I'm happy to do video calls or meet up, at your convenience. I live in Paris and can join you if needed! I believe the best way to learn is to practice by speaking, so I suggest we meet mostly to chat if you're interested in learning the language, but for anything else, I'll prepare lessons tailored to your level!

In order to enrich his emotional skills, it will be a question of making your emotion the ally of your professional efficiency and / or your personal harmony. Emotions punctuate your life, they intervene in a more or less conscious way and have a considerable influence on your well-being and your performance at work.

How to recognize them, decipher them and make them your allies? How to face the emotions of others, anticipate their reaction and keep a step back? How to better manage unforeseen situations and tensions?

These workshops allow you to learn to listen and tame emotions to improve your personal / professional relationships and strengthen your efficiency at work.

The objectives are clear, with always practical applications:
- Discover your own emotional process to understand the role and impact of emotions
- Analyze its operations and implement personal strategies to channel them
- Develop your emotional awareness to be in touch with your values
- Strengthen one's balance / harmony, self-confidence as well as the best discovery & mastery of one's own resources / skills / potential as well as new tools
- Overcome your fears and blockages to be able to move forward and serenely.
- Reduce psychological (stress, anxiety, concentration ...) & psycho-somatic manifestations
- Optimization of the emotional process & the concept of emotional intelligence
- Make your sensitivity & possible hypersensitivity a strength

Indeed, the sensitive & hypersensitive represent a small part of the population and are able to perceive what others do not feel, which is hidden but try to conform to what is expected of them and of them. '' be able to live in community. After a suitable accompaniment, a hypersensitive can learn to tame his innate capacities and to create harmony in his own existence.

What happens during a session ?

After having defined together one or more global objectives based on your initial problem, each session takes place in two stages.

1) Browse, analyze & dissect together the reflections, thoughts and notes taken during the week and related to your emotions: actions taken based on the suggestions of the previous week; thoughts; feelings: what worked or not / corresponded or not to your expectations. It is also an opportunity to get to know you better in order to better define / define / identify and then solve together the challenges / emotional blockages of the moment.

2) Based on the conclusions of the first part, a proposal of two to three sub-issues of the day to be dealt with during the session (sub-issues built from your initial issue): to answer them, for each of them 'between them, a series of ten to fifteen pragmatic reflections / actions will be proposed to you. Three possible answers:
- "I have already tried this solution but it does not suit me" or "I do not really believe it": we go to the next suggestion
- “Never tried” or “why not”, “I'll think about it”: we set ourselves the goal of trying as soon as the opportunity arises, by the next session

Concretely, a session = a reflection but above all A SESSION = SOLUTIONS / proposals / concrete suggestions to put into practice for the following session in order to overcome its blockages.

According to the defined objective, it is a question of identifying & resolving the impact of emotions and their bad channeling not only on his communication but especially on his daily life.

Note that during the videoconference session, all the notes are transcribed in the chat so that you can access them at any time when you wish.

Bilingual following my childhood spent in England, I offer support from elementary school to high school (and more), whatever your level (basic or not).

Whether it is for a school aid or to better understand English, speak it, review basics that have not been completely acquired, build sentences, write paragraphs, analyze words and use them, improve pronunciation, spelling, translating, or just conversing in English ..., I offer my help.

My services in learning English are quite broad: we will analyze what you are missing and I will adapt the course according to your needs, so that it is no longer a problem.

I am a trained French teacher with a degree in linguistics. I have been teaching since 2012 and I support candidates in improving their French and preparing for official exams.

The preparation is fully tailored to your level, the date of your exam and the skills you need to strengthen.

We are working on the different challenges:
- listening comprehension;
- understanding of written texts;
- written production;
- oral production.

The goal is not only to improve your French, but also to understand what examiners expect and to learn how to respond effectively to exam instructions.

Depending on your needs, we can work on methodology, organization of ideas, argumentation, grammar, vocabulary, time management and correction of written or oral productions.

Exercises and practice topics may be offered between lessons to track your progress and identify areas that require more work.

As the exam approaches, we can also carry out simulations under conditions close to the real test, particularly for oral production.

Before we begin, simply tell me the diploma and level you are preparing for, the scheduled date of the exam, and the difficulties you wish to work on as a priority.

Behavioral analysis uses principles of behavior to solve practical everyday problems. Starting from observations, several hypotheses are put forward, without ever judging, to decode and decipher gestures, words, a way of expressing oneself (...). Based on empathy, these methods allow:
- on the one hand, to understand his interlocutor and to adapt to the situation to effectively transmit his messages and convince
- on the other hand, to improve one's own verbal and non-verbal communication with a verified methodology and very specific techniques

Therefore, it is not only a question of learning to 'decode' the other but also of improving one's skills during oral interventions in public, better managing one's personal/professional communication & the conflicts which result from it, mastering the negotiation techniques (...): your objectives in terms of communication can be diverse and the objective of these sessions is precisely to accompany you to better achieve them. So how do you get a clear message across, make a difference & make an impression?

➤ So, how to listen and be listened to, convince and be impactful, challenge and make an impression, enhance your content, address your audience effectively and optimize the quality & clarity of the exchange / message? It is precisely a question of going through, applying and deploying practical and effective techniques of oral presentation, of simple intervention or of 'one to one` exchange, aiming to challenge your audience or interlocutor, by taking care of the substance as well as the form. , all in a professional or personal context. For this, there are various techniques of verbal and non-verbal communication.

➤ Thus, mastered, the practical method allows, through a set of simulations and scenarios based on your daily experience to support pragmatic & concrete techniques, to decode the gestures and behaviors of its interlocutors but also to improve confidence in self, his confidence, his ease by overcoming his embarrassment and mastering his emotion in public. But also to work on his leadership & his charisma, in a context where empathy and emotional intelligence are at the service of communication.

➤ So, in this context, after having precisely defined your objective & gone through the blockages encountered, here are some examples of themes covered through concrete techniques & a targeted methodology:
✓Practical tools to perfect your rhetoric/repartee
✓Decode and use the practical communication tools of great leaders
✓Fundamentals (practices) of eloquence but also of public speaking (intonation, gaze, gestures, elocution, range, emotions, pronunciation, development of one's own style of charisma) to ensure consistency between substance & form
✓Fundamentals of Body Language to support and not interfere with the speech while being convinced & convincing.
✓ Highlighting their speech & promoting their speaking to arouse interest, by building on their strengths.
✓Creation of a coherence between the message emitted & the message received in order to improve its speech and in fact, its professional/personal relations.
✓Management of Q&A sessions & external reactions during an intervention or an oral exchange.
✓Practical tools to put your interlocutor at ease and appear friendly/interested.
✓To succeed in a negotiation/mediation.
✓On the one hand, learning to say 'no' simply in three steps AND on the other hand, getting people to say 'yes'.
✓To turn sentences into positive AND constructive.
✓To manage conflicts (eg 'assertive' communication techniques, eg CNV techniques - Non Violent Communication).
✓To put NLP (neuro-linguistic programming) at the service of communication.
✓To adopt effective, simple, fair and engaging language.
✓To use sentences, turns of phrase & expressions allowing to be precise, simple, effective & challenging.
✓To manage your personal & professional relationships with, for example, the preparation of your ratings.
✓Make your hypersensitivity a strength to tame your abilities.
✓Listening proactively and expressing / conveying ideas / message clearly.
✓ Avoid letting your emotions show through and propose a constructive solution to problems, while drawing on your own relational skills.
✓Be better equipped to recognize and immediately remedy situations that weaken their authority and affect their ability to communicate effectively.
✓Enhance their potential for expression and creativity (often underestimated until now) and 'apparent' sociability
✓Develop not necessarily self-confidence, but the 'appearance' of self-confidence, refine one's listening to respond adequately, open up to the resources of the imagination, free oneself from the rational to then structure one's speech.
✓Relate their communication objectives (project, institution, values, ideas, demands, etc.) to the form of their expression.
✓Learn and put into practice persuasive communication techniques and better understand the perception that others have of oneself. In order to improve his skills of 'self-presentation' and conveyed image.
✓Practical techniques to foster the engagement of the other party.
✓Strengthen the structure of its communication and develop a convincing argument in order to sell its ideas and projects.
(...)

➤ To master the keys to successful public communication, it is advisable to reinforce the impact of one's speeches: by structuring one's interventions and taking into account the circumstances and expectations of the public; by making an impression through storytelling; integrating the psychological and emotional factors of effective oral communication; integrating emotions in the preparation of the message and the arguments; anticipating objections and delicate situations; by preparing and structuring an attractive and convincing presentation framework; by experimenting with the rules of improvisation; by adequately managing difficult situations (...).

➤ In short, each session combines techniques & practical exercises adapted to your daily situations (filmed with your agreement in order to be reviewed, commented on, decoded together live), so that you can apply them immediately, and from the 1st session.

➤ THE TRAINER
Trained in a Grande Ecole post-preparatory European classes & Ivy League university in the United States, our teacher has specialized and has worked for more than 15 years, in Europe and North America, in the field of communication, in renowned international public and private establishments, intervening in forums and conferences, & oriented towards pedagogy and careful methodology.

Turn your trades into victories!

Whether it's to negotiate a contract or remuneration, defend an idea, advance a project, start a business, convince a partner, gain the support of a team, resolve a conflict or simply make yourself better understood, one thing can make all the difference: knowing who you are dealing with and how to communicate with that person.

Because there is no single way to communicate effectively.

The same method won't work for everyone. A rational person isn't persuaded in the same way as an emotional one. A cautious person doesn't react like an ambitious one. A decision-maker, a colleague, a client, an investor, a partner, or a loved one doesn't have the same expectations, motivations, or interests.

The goal is therefore to learn to observe, understand, analyze and adapt your communication in order to deploy the right tool, the right method and the right strategy, at the right time and in front of the right person.

➤ Understanding humans to communicate better

Our way of communicating relies largely on understanding certain mechanisms of human psychology.

Human beings are naturally attentive to what directly concerns them. They are sensitive to their interests, needs, fears, curiosity, recognition, need for security, and desire to be understood and valued.

The idea is therefore not simply to say what you have to say, but to understand:
-How can you make your interlocutor want to listen to you?
-How can you present your message so that it makes sense to him?
-How to spark their interest?
-How can we address his concerns before he even expresses them?
-How to create a dynamic favorable to your objective?

For example, rather than immediately presenting an idea solely from your own perspective, you will learn to identify what may interest your interlocutor and to build your communication around their concerns.

A phrase like, "What I'm about to explain could be of real interest to you, particularly because..." can capture more attention than a simple presentation focused solely on your own needs. But the techniques, tools, and methods of the modules studied together obviously go far beyond that.

Similarly, understanding certain mechanisms such as curiosity, self-interest, recognition, trust, consistency, emotion, or risk perception allows for a more relevant and effective approach.

➤ Profiling & analysis of interlocutors
Before communicating effectively, you must first understand who you are addressing.
You will learn to analyze your interlocutor through different elements:
✔️ His way of communicating
✔️ His priorities and interests
✔️ His motivations
✔️ His needs and expectations
✔️ His potential resistances and objections
✔️ His decision-making process
✔️ His relationship with risk
✔️ His personal or professional stakes
✔️ The verbal and non-verbal signals he can express
✔️ What can promote or hinder its adoption

The goal: to no longer communicate automatically or identically with everyone.
You will learn to adapt your speech, posture, arguments, questions and strategy depending on the person you are facing.

➤ Advance your projects and ambitions
-Do you have a project?
-Do you want to create a company, launch an activity, advance in your organization, defend an idea, obtain the agreement of a decision-maker or make several people or departments collaborate?
-A project is not based solely on its quality.
-It also depends on your ability to:
✔️ Identify the right contacts
✔️ Understand the interests of each stakeholder
✔️ Knowing how to approach each person
✔️ Adapt your communication according to the department or function
✔️ Present your project from the angle most relevant to each individual
✔️ Anticipate objections and resistance
✔️ Create alliances and gain support
✔️ Negotiate effectively when interests diverge
✔️ Knowing when to insist, when to rephrase, when to wait, or when to change approach

-The same project may require several communication strategies depending on the person you are addressing.

-The goal is to give you the necessary tools to understand this dynamic and to move your project forward with more method, strategy and efficiency.

➤ Negotiation: much more than defending one's position
Whether it's for negotiating:
-A contract
-A remuneration
-A partnership
-A budget
-A strategic project
-Career progression
-A decision
-Or resolve a conflict

Negotiation is not just about finding good arguments.
It also involves understanding:
-Who is in front of you.
-What he really wants.
-What he stands to gain.
-What he is trying to avoid.
-What are his interests?
-What are its constraints?
-And what strategy can create a favorable outcome?

➤ On the agenda: support tailored to your objectives

Psychology of communication & understanding of behaviors
-Understanding some fundamental mechanisms of human psychology
-Identify the needs, motivations and interests of your interlocutors
-Understanding why some approaches work with some people and fail with others
-Use interest, curiosity, recognition, trust and other communication levers
-Craft a message that makes people want to listen

Profiling and analysis of interlocutors
-Observe and analyze how a person communicates
-Identify your priorities and your way of working
-Detect potential resistance and objections
-Understanding verbal and behavioral signals
-Adapt your strategy to the person and the context

Persuasive communication
-Formulate your arguments with impact
-To promote your ideas so that they are considered
-Structuring a convincing speech
-Ask the right questions
-Create interest and engagement
-Adapt your language and your approach
-Develop your ability to persuade without engaging in unnecessary power struggles

Strategic negotiation
-Identify and utilize negotiation levers: alternatives, common interests, concessions, and room for maneuver
-Preparing effectively for a negotiation
-Anticipate different scenarios
-Identify the interests and positions of stakeholders
-Build a suitable strategy
-Managing objections and deadlock situations
-Knowing how to evolve a discussion when the initial strategy is not working
-Maximize your chances of reaching a favorable agreement

Project strategy & support
-Clarify your objective and your strategy
-Identify the different stages and priorities
-Understanding who to interact with and in what order
-Prepare your discussions with the various stakeholders
-Adapt your communication according to the departments, partners or decision-makers
-Prepare for your important appointments
-Anticipate difficulties and resistance
-Deploy the most relevant tools and methods according to each step

Conflict management and complex situations
-Understanding the mechanisms that give rise to a conflict
-Identify the real issues behind the positions expressed
-Manage your emotions and those of the person you are speaking with
-Develop active and strategic listening
-Moving beyond unnecessary power struggles
-Regaining control of a difficult exchange
-Find constructive and sustainable solutions

➤ The right tool, at the right time, with the right person
This is one of the central principles of this support. Knowing a technique is not enough.

But first, you need to know:
-When to use it.
-With whom.
-In what context?
-And in what a way.

The same technique can be extremely effective with one person and totally counterproductive with another.

You will therefore learn to develop a true strategic reading of interactions, so that you no longer act solely on intuition, but understand the dynamics at play and consciously choose your approach.

➤ Tailored support

This program is aimed particularly at:

-Entrepreneurs and project leaders
-Business leaders and executives
Managers and executives
-Young professionals
Self-employed individuals and professionals
People wishing to advance within their company
Anyone with a project, ambition, or goal to achieve
Anyone wishing to improve their relationships and communication in a personal setting

Each support program is tailored to your specific situation and concrete objectives.

We can work directly on your projects, negotiations, appointments, relationship difficulties, or professional situations.

The goal is not simply to learn concepts.

You learn how to use them practically in your own life.

➤ A practical, engaging, and results-oriented teaching approach

We alternate methodological input, analysis of real situations, role-playing, simulations, preparation of your discussions and personalized feedback.

You can bring:

-A project to be developed.
-A negotiation to prepare for.
-An important appointment.
-A conflict to be resolved.
-A difficult person to manage.
-An idea worth defending.
-A business to launch.
-Or simply an ambition you wish to realize.

Let's analyze the situation together:

-What is your objective?
-Who are the relevant stakeholders?
-What are their interests and what is at stake?
-What obstacles might arise?
-What strategy should we adopt?
-What approach should be used?
-Which arguments should be prioritized?
-What tools should be deployed?
-And most importantly: at what point?

➤ Become a strategic communicator

The goal of this support is to enable you to develop a skill that will serve you in all areas of your life:

-Understanding people.
-Understanding the situations.
-Understanding the issues.

I am a Master's student in Public Business Law at the University of Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne. Previously, I obtained a dual French-Spanish baccalaureate and a double Bachelor's degree in Law (European Studies track) from the University of Nantes, which provided me with a strong multidisciplinary background. I therefore offer tutoring in the humanities and social sciences (law, economics and social sciences, languages, history, sociology, history, geography, geography, geopolitics, and political science) to your children and teenagers, in order to support their learning and help them improve.

Drawing on my extensive experience, I approach these lessons with a positive and pedagogical mindset, adapting to your children's needs to best understand their requirements. The goal is to provide exercises (quizzes, essay or commentary topics) or short case studies for subsequent lessons, allowing students to practice the concepts covered together, but above all, to solidify their learning and put it into practice.
I also offer oral preparation courses to promote ease in public speaking and to better manage stress during these exams.

In order to enrich his emotional skills, it will be a question of making your emotion the ally of your professional efficiency and / or your personal harmony. Emotions punctuate your life, they intervene in a more or less conscious way and have a considerable influence on your well-being and your performance at work.

How to recognize them, decipher them and make them your allies? How to face the emotions of others, anticipate their reaction and keep a step back? How to better manage unforeseen situations and tensions?

These workshops allow you to learn to listen and tame emotions to improve your personal / professional relationships and strengthen your efficiency at work.

The objectives are clear, with always practical applications:
- Discover your own emotional process to understand the role and impact of emotions
- Analyze its operations and implement personal strategies to channel them
- Develop your emotional awareness to be in touch with your values
- Strengthen one's balance / harmony, self-confidence as well as the best discovery & mastery of one's own resources / skills / potential as well as new tools
- Overcome your fears and blockages to be able to move forward and serenely.
- Reduce psychological (stress, anxiety, concentration ...) & psycho-somatic manifestations
- Optimization of the emotional process & the concept of emotional intelligence
- Make your sensitivity & possible hypersensitivity a strength

Indeed, the sensitive & hypersensitive represent a small part of the population and are able to perceive what others do not feel, which is hidden but try to conform to what is expected of them and of them. '' be able to live in community. After a suitable accompaniment, a hypersensitive can learn to tame his innate capacities and to create harmony in his own existence.

What happens during a session ?

After having defined together one or more global objectives based on your initial problem, each session takes place in two stages.

1) Browse, analyze & dissect together the reflections, thoughts and notes taken during the week and related to your emotions: actions taken based on the suggestions of the previous week; thoughts; feelings: what worked or not / corresponded or not to your expectations. It is also an opportunity to get to know you better in order to better define / define / identify and then solve together the challenges / emotional blockages of the moment.

2) Based on the conclusions of the first part, a proposal of two to three sub-issues of the day to be dealt with during the session (sub-issues built from your initial issue): to answer them, for each of them 'between them, a series of ten to fifteen pragmatic reflections / actions will be proposed to you. Three possible answers:
- "I have already tried this solution but it does not suit me" or "I do not really believe it": we go to the next suggestion
- “Never tried” or “why not”, “I'll think about it”: we set ourselves the goal of trying as soon as the opportunity arises, by the next session

Concretely, a session = a reflection but above all A SESSION = SOLUTIONS / proposals / concrete suggestions to put into practice for the following session in order to overcome its blockages.

According to the defined objective, it is a question of identifying & resolving the impact of emotions and their bad channeling not only on his communication but especially on his daily life.

I am a trained French teacher with a degree in linguistics. I have been teaching since 2012 and I support candidates in improving their French and preparing for official exams.

The preparation is fully tailored to your level, the date of your exam and the skills you need to strengthen.

We are working on the different challenges:
- listening comprehension;
- understanding of written texts;
- written production;
- oral production.

The goal is not only to improve your French, but also to understand what examiners expect and to learn how to respond effectively to exam instructions.

Depending on your needs, we can work on methodology, organization of ideas, argumentation, grammar, vocabulary, time management and correction of written or oral productions.

Exercises and practice topics may be offered between lessons to track your progress and identify areas that require more work.

As the exam approaches, we can also carry out simulations under conditions close to the real test, particularly for oral production.

Before we begin, simply tell me the diploma and level you are preparing for, the scheduled date of the exam, and the difficulties you wish to work on as a priority.

Behavioral analysis uses principles of behavior to solve practical everyday problems. Starting from observations, several hypotheses are put forward, without ever judging, to decode and decipher gestures, words, a way of expressing oneself (...). Based on empathy, these methods allow:
- on the one hand, to understand his interlocutor and to adapt to the situation to effectively transmit his messages and convince
- on the other hand, to improve one's own verbal and non-verbal communication with a verified methodology and very specific techniques

Therefore, it is not only a question of learning to 'decode' the other but also of improving one's skills during oral interventions in public, better managing one's personal/professional communication & the conflicts which result from it, mastering the negotiation techniques (...): your objectives in terms of communication can be diverse and the objective of these sessions is precisely to accompany you to better achieve them. So how do you get a clear message across, make a difference & make an impression?

➤ So, how to listen and be listened to, convince and be impactful, challenge and make an impression, enhance your content, address your audience effectively and optimize the quality & clarity of the exchange / message? It is precisely a question of going through, applying and deploying practical and effective techniques of oral presentation, of simple intervention or of 'one to one` exchange, aiming to challenge your audience or interlocutor, by taking care of the substance as well as the form. , all in a professional or personal context. For this, there are various techniques of verbal and non-verbal communication.

➤ Thus, mastered, the practical method allows, through a set of simulations and scenarios based on your daily experience to support pragmatic & concrete techniques, to decode the gestures and behaviors of its interlocutors but also to improve confidence in self, his confidence, his ease by overcoming his embarrassment and mastering his emotion in public. But also to work on his leadership & his charisma, in a context where empathy and emotional intelligence are at the service of communication.

➤ So, in this context, after having precisely defined your objective & gone through the blockages encountered, here are some examples of themes covered through concrete techniques & a targeted methodology:
✓Practical tools to perfect your rhetoric/repartee
✓Decode and use the practical communication tools of great leaders
✓Fundamentals (practices) of eloquence but also of public speaking (intonation, gaze, gestures, elocution, range, emotions, pronunciation, development of one's own style of charisma) to ensure consistency between substance & form
✓Fundamentals of Body Language to support and not interfere with the speech while being convinced & convincing.
✓ Highlighting their speech & promoting their speaking to arouse interest, by building on their strengths.
✓Creation of a coherence between the message emitted & the message received in order to improve its speech and in fact, its professional/personal relations.
✓Management of Q&A sessions & external reactions during an intervention or an oral exchange.
✓Practical tools to put your interlocutor at ease and appear friendly/interested.
✓To succeed in a negotiation/mediation.
✓On the one hand, learning to say 'no' simply in three steps AND on the other hand, getting people to say 'yes'.
✓To turn sentences into positive AND constructive.
✓To manage conflicts (eg 'assertive' communication techniques, eg CNV techniques - Non Violent Communication).
✓To put NLP (neuro-linguistic programming) at the service of communication.
✓To adopt effective, simple, fair and engaging language.
✓To use sentences, turns of phrase & expressions allowing to be precise, simple, effective & challenging.
✓To manage your personal & professional relationships with, for example, the preparation of your ratings.
✓Make your hypersensitivity a strength to tame your abilities.
✓Listening proactively and expressing / conveying ideas / message clearly.
✓ Avoid letting your emotions show through and propose a constructive solution to problems, while drawing on your own relational skills.
✓Be better equipped to recognize and immediately remedy situations that weaken their authority and affect their ability to communicate effectively.
✓Enhance their potential for expression and creativity (often underestimated until now) and 'apparent' sociability
✓Develop not necessarily self-confidence, but the 'appearance' of self-confidence, refine one's listening to respond adequately, open up to the resources of the imagination, free oneself from the rational to then structure one's speech.
✓Relate their communication objectives (project, institution, values, ideas, demands, etc.) to the form of their expression.
✓Learn and put into practice persuasive communication techniques and better understand the perception that others have of oneself. In order to improve his skills of 'self-presentation' and conveyed image.
✓Practical techniques to foster the engagement of the other party.
✓Strengthen the structure of its communication and develop a convincing argument in order to sell its ideas and projects.
(...)

➤ To master the keys to successful public communication, it is advisable to reinforce the impact of one's speeches: by structuring one's interventions and taking into account the circumstances and expectations of the public; by making an impression through storytelling; integrating the psychological and emotional factors of effective oral communication; integrating emotions in the preparation of the message and the arguments; anticipating objections and delicate situations; by preparing and structuring an attractive and convincing presentation framework; by experimenting with the rules of improvisation; by adequately managing difficult situations (...).

➤ In short, each session combines techniques & practical exercises adapted to your daily situations (filmed with your agreement in order to be reviewed, commented on, decoded together live), so that you can apply them immediately, and from the 1st session.

Turn your trades into victories!

Whether it's to negotiate a contract or remuneration, defend an idea, advance a project, start a business, convince a partner, gain the support of a team, resolve a conflict or simply make yourself better understood, one thing can make all the difference: knowing who you are dealing with and how to communicate with that person.

Because there is no single way to communicate effectively.

The same method won't work for everyone. A rational person isn't persuaded in the same way as an emotional one. A cautious person doesn't react like an ambitious one. A decision-maker, a colleague, a client, an investor, a partner, or a loved one doesn't have the same expectations, motivations, or interests.

The goal is therefore to learn to observe, understand, analyze and adapt your communication in order to deploy the right tool, the right method and the right strategy, at the right time and in front of the right person.

➤ Understanding humans to communicate better

Our way of communicating relies largely on understanding certain mechanisms of human psychology.

Human beings are naturally attentive to what directly concerns them. They are sensitive to their interests, needs, fears, curiosity, recognition, need for security, and desire to be understood and valued.

The idea is therefore not simply to say what you have to say, but to understand:
-How can you make your interlocutor want to listen to you?
-How can you present your message so that it makes sense to him?
-How to spark their interest?
-How can we address his concerns before he even expresses them?
-How to create a dynamic favorable to your objective?

For example, rather than immediately presenting an idea solely from your own perspective, you will learn to identify what may interest your interlocutor and to build your communication around their concerns.

A phrase like, "What I'm about to explain could be of real interest to you, particularly because..." can capture more attention than a simple presentation focused solely on your own needs. But the techniques, tools, and methods of the modules studied together obviously go far beyond that.

Similarly, understanding certain mechanisms such as curiosity, self-interest, recognition, trust, consistency, emotion, or risk perception allows for a more relevant and effective approach.

➤ Profiling & analysis of interlocutors
Before communicating effectively, you must first understand who you are addressing.
You will learn to analyze your interlocutor through different elements:
✔️ His way of communicating
✔️ His priorities and interests
✔️ His motivations
✔️ His needs and expectations
✔️ His potential resistances and objections
✔️ His decision-making process
✔️ His relationship with risk
✔️ His personal or professional stakes
✔️ The verbal and non-verbal signals he can express
✔️ What can promote or hinder its adoption

The goal: to no longer communicate automatically or identically with everyone.
You will learn to adapt your speech, posture, arguments, questions and strategy depending on the person you are facing.

➤ Advance your projects and ambitions
-Do you have a project?
-Do you want to create a company, launch an activity, advance in your organization, defend an idea, obtain the agreement of a decision-maker or make several people or departments collaborate?
-A project is not based solely on its quality.
-It also depends on your ability to:
✔️ Identify the right contacts
✔️ Understand the interests of each stakeholder
✔️ Knowing how to approach each person
✔️ Adapt your communication according to the department or function
✔️ Present your project from the angle most relevant to each individual
✔️ Anticipate objections and resistance
✔️ Create alliances and gain support
✔️ Negotiate effectively when interests diverge
✔️ Knowing when to insist, when to rephrase, when to wait, or when to change approach

-The same project may require several communication strategies depending on the person you are addressing.

-The goal is to give you the necessary tools to understand this dynamic and to move your project forward with more method, strategy and efficiency.

➤ Negotiation: much more than defending one's position
Whether it's for negotiating:
-A contract
-A remuneration
-A partnership
-A budget
-A strategic project
-Career progression
-A decision
-Or resolve a conflict

Negotiation is not just about finding good arguments.
It also involves understanding:
-Who is in front of you.
-What he really wants.
-What he stands to gain.
-What he is trying to avoid.
-What are his interests?
-What are its constraints?
-And what strategy can create a favorable outcome?

➤ On the agenda: support tailored to your objectives

Psychology of communication & understanding of behaviors
-Understanding some fundamental mechanisms of human psychology
-Identify the needs, motivations and interests of your interlocutors
-Understanding why some approaches work with some people and fail with others
-Use interest, curiosity, recognition, trust and other communication levers
-Craft a message that makes people want to listen

Profiling and analysis of interlocutors
-Observe and analyze how a person communicates
-Identify your priorities and your way of working
-Detect potential resistance and objections
-Understanding verbal and behavioral signals
-Adapt your strategy to the person and the context

Persuasive communication
-Formulate your arguments with impact
-To promote your ideas so that they are considered
-Structuring a convincing speech
-Ask the right questions
-Create interest and engagement
-Adapt your language and your approach
-Develop your ability to persuade without engaging in unnecessary power struggles

Strategic negotiation
-Identify and utilize negotiation levers: alternatives, common interests, concessions, and room for maneuver
-Preparing effectively for a negotiation
-Anticipate different scenarios
-Identify the interests and positions of stakeholders
-Build a suitable strategy
-Managing objections and deadlock situations
-Knowing how to evolve a discussion when the initial strategy is not working
-Maximize your chances of reaching a favorable agreement

Project strategy & support
-Clarify your objective and your strategy
-Identify the different stages and priorities
-Understanding who to interact with and in what order
-Prepare your discussions with the various stakeholders
-Adapt your communication according to the departments, partners or decision-makers
-Prepare for your important appointments
-Anticipate difficulties and resistance
-Deploy the most relevant tools and methods according to each step

Conflict management and complex situations
-Understanding the mechanisms that give rise to a conflict
-Identify the real issues behind the positions expressed
-Manage your emotions and those of the person you are speaking with
-Develop active and strategic listening
-Moving beyond unnecessary power struggles
-Regaining control of a difficult exchange
-Find constructive and sustainable solutions

➤ The right tool, at the right time, with the right person
This is one of the central principles of this support. Knowing a technique is not enough.

But first, you need to know:
-When to use it.
-With whom.
-In what context?
-And in what a way.

The same technique can be extremely effective with one person and totally counterproductive with another.

You will therefore learn to develop a true strategic reading of interactions, so that you no longer act solely on intuition, but understand the dynamics at play and consciously choose your approach.

➤ Tailored support

This program is aimed particularly at:

-Entrepreneurs and project leaders
-Business leaders and executives
Managers and executives
-Young professionals
Self-employed individuals and professionals
People wishing to advance within their company
Anyone with a project, ambition, or goal to achieve
Anyone wishing to improve their relationships and communication in a personal setting

Each support program is tailored to your specific situation and concrete objectives.

We can work directly on your projects, negotiations, appointments, relationship difficulties, or professional situations.

The goal is not simply to learn concepts.

You learn how to use them practically in your own life.

➤ A practical, engaging, and results-oriented teaching approach

We alternate methodological input, analysis of real situations, role-playing, simulations, preparation of your discussions and personalized feedback.

You can bring:

-A project to be developed.
-A negotiation to prepare for.
-An important appointment.
-A conflict to be resolved.
-A difficult person to manage.
-An idea worth defending.
-A business to launch.
-Or simply an ambition you wish to realize.

Let's analyze the situation together:

-What is your objective?
-Who are the relevant stakeholders?
-What are their interests and what is at stake?
-What obstacles might arise?
-What strategy should we adopt?
-What approach should be used?
-Which arguments should be prioritized?
-What tools should be deployed?
-And most importantly: at what point?

➤ Become a strategic communicator

The goal of this support is to enable you to develop a skill that will serve you in all areas of your life:

-Understanding people.
-Understanding the situations.
-Understanding the issues.
-Then adapt your communication and strategy to achieve your objectives.

Whether you are setting up a project, developing a business, advancing professionally, negotiating an opportunity or managing a complex personal situation, you will have concrete methods, tools and strategies to communicate with greater impact, intelligence and efficiency.

Stop letting your projects, ideas, or ambitions depend solely on your intuition. Learn to understand people, decode situations, and deploy the right strategy at the right time to advance what truly matters to you.

✓ Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Fribourg-Zurich-Neuchâtel-Lugano-Montreux-Basel-Neuchâtel-Bern-Lucerne-Brussels-Luxembourg-Paris-Lyon. But currently, these sessions continue to be offered by videoconference in the current context and in accordance with general demand which is almost unanimous on this subject.

✓ Indeed, apart from the classic advantages of videoconferencing (time saving related to travel & their unforeseen events, eco-responsibility, increased schedule flexibility, etc.), the quality of the session & the interaction remain identical. In addition, the entire exchange, notes and recommendations are immediately transcribed on the dedicated chat.

✓ To support us among ourselves & to be pleasant to you in this sustainable / particular period and in a spirit of solidarity, the fees are temporarily reduced and will not increase after the start of our sessions.

✓ Languages: French/English.

I have 15 years of experience teaching IB, MYP, Key Stage 3, A-Level, IGCSE Language and Literature, and World Literature. I have taught in multiple countries worldwide. My expertise lies in exam preparation, but I also teach English as an Additional Language and work with younger students. Over the past six years, all my students have passed their exams, with 80% achieving a 6 or 7 in the IB Diploma. My teaching approach is relaxed and student-focused. I look forward to working with you!

Hello,

I am a Master's student in Public Business Law at the University of Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne. Previously, I obtained a dual French-Spanish baccalaureate and a double Bachelor's degree in Law (European Studies track) from the University of Nantes, which provided me with a strong multidisciplinary background. I therefore offer tutoring in the humanities and social sciences (law, economics and social sciences, languages, history, sociology, history, geography, geography, geopolitics, and political science) to your children and teenagers, in order to support their learning and help them improve.

Drawing on my extensive experience, I approach these lessons with a positive and pedagogical mindset, adapting to your children's needs to best understand their requirements. The goal is to provide exercises (quizzes, essay or commentary topics) or short case studies for subsequent lessons, allowing students to practice the concepts covered together, but above all, to solidify their learning and put it into practice.
I also offer oral preparation courses to promote ease in public speaking and to better manage stress during these exams.
