About Me

I am a dedicated and patient tutor whose goal is to provide individualized support to students and to teach them the material in a clear and structured way. It is important to me to address the personal needs, learning pace, and goals of each individual so that learning is not only effective but also motivating.

In my lessons, I place great emphasis on explaining complex topics simply and creating a pleasant learning atmosphere where questions are always welcome. Whether it's about reviewing fundamentals, providing ongoing support in everyday school life, or targeted exam preparation, I adapt my lessons flexibly.

Hello, my name is Claire. I hold a Master’s Degree (M2) in Educational Sciences and have been supporting pupils and students for several years in French, methodology, and exam preparation.

My approach is based on two key principles:

- 100% personalized support thanks to tailor-made learning materials.
- Building autonomy and confidence through regular, structured work.

My areas of expertise:

- Exam preparation (middle school certificate, high school diploma, baccalaureate, competitive exams, oral assessments) → text commentary, literary analysis, essay writing, methodology.

- Academic organization & coaching → study planning, time management, revision methods, oral preparation.

- French (written & oral) → reading, grammar, spelling, writing, oral expression.

- Specialized support → confirmed expertise in working with ADHD, gifted (HPI), and dyslexic (DYS) profiles, using adapted methods. My role also includes a diagnostic approach: helping identify whether difficulties stem from attention issues, a particular learning profile, or simply methodological needs, in order to guide students and families toward the right tools.

Why my lessons make a difference ?

Each student benefits from a structured and personalized study plan:

1. Objectives are defined together at the start. The student receives clear goals and a detailed schedule over several weeks.

2. I create a shared online agenda, where students can track what needs to be prepared for the next session.

3. Teaching materials are sent in advance and adapted week by week.

4. Regular assessments are built into the process (after major sessions or at the end of a period, such as a trimester).

This approach allows students to:

1. Have a clear vision of their progress,

2. Gain precise benchmarks,

3. Work on both subject content and study methods within a structured framework.

Methods and tools:

- Personalized learning resources: summaries, worksheets, exercises tailored to each student’s needs.

- Regular assessments: to monitor progress and adjust methods.

- Structured organization: balance between learning concepts, practice exercises, and methodology.

- Fostering autonomy: learning how to plan revisions, organize study time, and manage stress.

A 100% online format:

- Accessible throughout Switzerland and internationally.
- Digital tools to share materials and track progress.
- Flexible scheduling and continuity, even when traveling.

Rates and support:

Each session includes two components:

1. The live online course – interactive and personalized.
2. The preparation beforehand – essential for adapting the lesson to the student.

I am a German and French language tutor based near Zurich. I have been teaching since 2022 and offer personalized lessons for students of all levels, from complete beginners to advanced learners.

My lessons are tailored to each student’s needs, whether you are learning from the start, improving your fluency, or preparing for exams. I also provide focused support for school curricula, homework help, and structured exam preparation.

I aim to make learning clear, practical, and engaging, helping students build confidence in both spoken and written German or French through consistent progress and targeted practice.

I have been giving private tutoring lessons for some time now with great pleasure – both in the past and currently I provide individual support to pupils and students in mathematics, German and law.

As a law graduate with a Master's degree, I not only bring sound specialist knowledge, but also the ability to explain complex legal issues clearly and comprehensibly.

In mathematics and German, I support you in closing gaps, specifically reviewing exam material and developing a better understanding of the subject matter – in a structured, patient manner and tailored to your pace.

I offer a programming / coding class for kids / adults.

During my lessons, I perform a full tutorial of a programming language of your choice. If you do not have a choice I generally start with python as it is the most friendly one :).

Programming is like learning another language and I am help you speak it. From my experience, going over basics takes 10 lessons on average but, of course, you are free to start and quit as you want or ask for a lesson specifically focusing on a certain aspect of programming.

If this sounds like something you or your child (or both) would be interested in, let me know :))

Learn Spanish in a supportive, practical setting with a certified teacher who holds a Master's degree in Spanish Linguistics and a certificate in Translation and Interpretation Studies. Having studied and lived in the United States, Spain and Argentina, I teach Spanish as it is really spoken, along with the grammar and cultural context that help you understand it.

Lessons are one-on-one and fit your level, from complete beginner to advanced. We can focus on conversation, grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, travel Spanish, or preparation for school exams. Each class includes speaking practice, clear explanations and personalized feedback, and you will leave with simple next steps to practice on your own.

Hi! I'm a multilingual language tutor offering lessons in English, Russian, and conversational German.

I'm fluent in both English and Russian and have a very high level of conversational German. I enjoy helping people improve their language skills in a relaxed, supportive, and practical environment.

My lessons can be adapted to your individual goals, whether you'd like to improve your speaking, build vocabulary, work on pronunciation, practise everyday conversations, or feel more confident using a language at work, while travelling, or in daily life.

I believe that the best way to learn a language is to use it actively. My approach is interactive and flexible, with an emphasis on real-life communication and learning at your own pace.

Whether you're a beginner looking to build a solid foundation or an intermediate learner hoping to become more fluent, I'd be happy to help you on your language-learning journey!

Feel free to get in touch and tell me about your goals. I look forward to meeting you!
