I am student of Master Music Pedagogy- Violoncello at Zürich University of Arts in the need of a student for my degree practice :))

If, when playing, you like what you hear, feel comfortable, and feel like you are in control of your playing, you'll enjoy learning the cello. I won't let you down!

Do not hesitate and contact me :)))))

If you are looking for cello lessons in Bern or in Zurich, beginner, intermediate or advanced, I would be very happy to get to know you! My cello lessons are based around playing together, finding the students own ways to improve and learning about ways to make our daily life enchanted with music practice!

I love working in chamber music, in musical theater (with dance, actors, fine arts) and I am very passionate about traditional/world music as well.

If you want to learn English language, I am here to help you. It is not difficult as it may look, but you have to be persistent if you want to reach your goal. Let me show you that English classes can be fun and studying can be interesting.

I'm an English teacher for more than six years and I have plenty of experience. At the beginning of the course, studying material is particularly selected for each student depending on their level of knowledge. After the type of course is determined, focus is on the weak spots and improving whatever skill a student is lacking in. Speaking is always emphasized. In class students can suggest other materials, books etc and ask for lessons they want to study. Asking questions is always a good thing and cooperation between teacher and a student is crucial. If you agree, contact me and start your English course today!

I'm looking forward to helping you learn English!

My name is Jimmy, I'm 24 years old and I grew up in the South of France, near Marseille. I have lived in Spain, Poland, Hungary and I now live in Zürich where I work as a French teacher.
I am passionate about literature, history, politics, psychology and foreign languages: I speak French, Italian, English, Spanish and Provençal fluently. I love to travel and more generally to learn more about other cultures. I am patient, motivated, curious and attentive.

Lessons for all levels and all audiences

The 4 skills are worked on (written and oral comprehension, written and oral expression) thanks to courses on:
- the conversation to be able to live in a French-speaking country
- grammar (theory and exercises), vocabulary...
- French and Francophone culture

Complete adaptation of the chosen subjects and the elements worked on according to the objectives and the level of the student.

Let me tell you something. When I was learning English, I realized that the method I was using included strategies, tricks, and tips that made the process much simpler and faster — and it worked! In just four months, I was able to hold a conversation in English with someone.
So, I took that same method and customized it to teach Spanish — and it has worked for Spanish learners too! That’s exactly what I want to share with you: practical strategies based on real-life situations — things you encounter every day like in the streets, hotels, restaurants, and more.
My name is Christian. I love to create (art, music, etc.), I work as a photo and video editor, and I also teach.
I have taught students and colleagues. They are aware that I learned basic English in just four to five months due to my discovery of effective learning methods, tips, and tricks. Of course, learning everything in just 3 months is unrealistic. It takes consistent effort to become familiar with the Spanish language, their people, and the diverse cultures you'll encounter, as a native Spanish teacher I'm exited to share this with you.

Hi there! I'm a native Chinese speaker from China, and I'm currently finishing my master's degree in Zurich, where I’ve been since the autumn of 2023. I will be staying in Zurich after graduation, so I'm excited to share my language and culture with you!

My Mandarin is standard and accent-free. I have experience teaching both one-on-one and in group settings. My teaching style is lively, engaging, and very approachable. I believe learning a new language should be a fun and positive experience!

I'm comfortable teaching in both English and Chinese. Whether you're a complete beginner or looking to advance your skills, I'll tailor the lessons to your specific needs. Let's start this exciting language journey together!
