Native English Speaker (American) offering English Language Tutoring

From 17.86 £ /h

Hello Students! My name is Ciara. I am a native speaker from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA. I have a Bachelor's degree in French and Psychology from Pennsylvania State University. I have experience in tutoring children and adults both one-on-one and in small groups. I am currently an English Language Assistant at two elementary schools in Tours, France.

I can provide tutoring to children, teenagers, and adults. I am happy to help with English speaking, pronunciation, reading, listening, writing and grammar. My goal is to create a positive language learning environment for the students that I tutor. I can tailor the tutoring to the needs, age and language ability of the student.

During the first session, we can discuss the student's goals and what he or she would like to focus on and improve. I can either provide learning tools or offer assistance with English homework that the student has received from his or her teacher at school. I am very flexible and can adapt to the needs of each student.

I can provide my resume or reference letters if requested. I look forward to hearing from you and please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions you may have.

About Me

Hello! I am from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA. Pittsburgh is the home of many sports team [the Steelers (football), Pirates (baseball) and Penguins (hockey)] and also Heinz Ketchup! I graduated this year from Pennsylvania State University with an honors degree in French Language and Psychology with a focus on Child Psychology. I am currently living in France as an English Language Assistant. I have a passion for traveling and exploring other cultures. My favorite place that I have visited is India! I have studied and lived abroad in Quebec, Montréal and Paris. I will live in France for one year. During my year in France, I would like to learn more about French daily life and explore regions in France that I have never visited.

When I am not working or studying, I enjoy photography, running, reading, skiing and spending time with my friends and family.

I have an intermediate level of French so I can communicate with students in French when necessary but the majority of my tutoring interactions will take place in English.

currently in the second year of khagne (preparatory classes for high schools, I seek to help any pupil student and high school student in need of support or the desire to progress in these subjects.Becialized in English and studying Spanish in khagne, I I therefore propose to give courses of English of Spanish adapting to the needs and the envy of the pupil, although it seems to me essential to attend on the oral aspect of language while working on audio- I would also give grammar exercises and vocabulary to learn for the next class.
Having passed a baccalaureat L with honors and still studying philosophy, I also propose to give courses in this subject, based on written and audio-visual media allowing a diversified approach to the subject. The homework will consist mainly of subjects to work at home.

Course access on grammar and oral comprehension, the objective is to improve the level of the student but also to prepare it for the future term such as the patent and the bac.

At the level of the methodology, all the courses are divided in two parts a first access on a topic of grammar and a second on an oral comprehension, which makes it possible to work the pronunciation.

I offer help for these two subjects, whether to recover a certain level, to provide constant help during the year as well as to give help in homework and make some tips depending on the profile to meet.
The course will not overload, on the contrary it will be relaxed to provide better help.
I can help you until the end of high school (Scientific Bac with 18 in Svt and 20 in English) and more for English.

I give English lessons for students with difficulty in this subject, who wish to progress or simply for those who wish to learn this language.

We will see together the written word (spelling, grammar, syntax etc.) but also a lot of oral since it is a living language and is therefore spoken.

The course will be carried out according to the level and pace of the student (there is no point in rushing things), I will take into account the difficulties of each so that the course goes well and that it is not a chore but we learn together for fun.

I'm a native English speaker, having grown up and gone to school in England for the majority of my life. Currently I am at flight school in Tours to become an airline pilot, in my free time I would love to help you improve your English speaking!

Learning English and all of its grammar in a classroom is one thing, but the best way to improve and gain confidence is through practice, and more specifically, speaking! I will help you improve your pronunciation and your speaking skills, primarily through discussions and conversations, but also through other proactive exercises.

If you have any questions or would like to prepare for something specific; such as a speaking exam or a presentation, please do contact me!
