The length of the course is about 60-80 hours, but naturally I will tailor it to your level and needs. If you are unsure about your knowledge of grammar and would like a structured, systematic approach, this course will be ideal for you.

quiz

Take a trial lesson with me and discover what we can do together! I welcome your input on what your goals, target areas, weaknesses and strengths are, when it comes to learning English. I can provide feedback, a structured curriculum, homework, tests and quizzes...whatever you need to reach your English goals. Together we can identify the right type of lessons and lesson structure that will work for you, and soon you'll be winging your way to English success! :) 

This trial lesson can be a simple exercise in getting familiar with each other, or it can be a structured mini-class. Whatever you prefer! If you have a specific goal, test, business requirement etc., please let me know before the class. I can tailor my classes to your needs and learning style. I'm so looking forward to helping you on your English language journey!

These classes are aimed at children from ages 5-50. Yes, parents are welcome (even preferred) to attend the class along with the student, particularly younger students. In this class we will cover conversational topics ranging from our favourite foods or animals, to what we did that day, to our hobbies and aspirations for the future. If your child has a particular interest (e.g. space exploration, fashion, dancing, nature and animals) we can focus on these areas. The class will focus on correcting and improving conversational english, including pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary (and writing where needed). For younger students, we will play games and other fun activities. For those with a more advanced level of English, we can use these conversations to identify and target areas for improvement, and potentially choose other types of lessons which might benefit the student. I can tailor the classes to your needs and interests, and for those extra enthusiastic students, I offer homework and lesson plans! :)

KID'S CONVERSATIONAL ENGLISH

Have you found yourself with more time to improve your secondary research skills? Have you always wanted to improve your spoken or written English for use in presentations and publications. With over 10 years of experience in academia, including writing, correcting and editing publications, I can help you sharpen your English skills for your next peer-reviewed paper or conference presentation. This lesson will focus on spoken English, but we will use this to identify topics, expressions or sentence structures which have been causing you problems. As well as feedback on your English, I provide examples, exercises and even a structured plan should you require one. I can also read some of your previous work in order to identify challenges and strengths in your writing style. Together we can quickly hone your academic English skills!

ACADEMIC ENGLISH/EDITING

This lesson is for all ages (>10 years old) and focuses specifically on the bones of the English language, the structure on which all the vocabulary hangs - English grammar! In this lesson we will cover specific grammar points, how they are used, and how to use them as building blocks in the construction of your English. Because these building blocks are broken down into compact, digestible parts, it is possible to build a tailor-made curriculum to suit your needs and goals, as well as to take only one lesson at a time and propose a grammar point that has been causing you particular difficulty. In this sense, we can tighten or broaden the scope to suit you. I provide examples, homework and a structured syllabus if required.

ENGLISH GRAMMAR

This class is for all ages and all levels of English proficiency, as the aim is simply free talking as you would in an everyday conversation. It is particularly useful for practicing the kinds of everyday conversations you might be finding challenging right now (about the news or current events; about what you did at the weekend or on your holiday). To tailor the conversation to your needs, you can choose the topic/s, and I will provide the feedback on your English directly during the class. If you prefer to cover a wide variety of different topics (this is advisable at the intermediate level, in order to expand your vocabulary), I can provide a diverse range of different topics as well as discussion formats. At the end of the class we will identify some grammar, vocabulary or pronunciation points to work on. If you send me the topic in advance I will send some useful grammar structures, vocabulary and expressions for you to practice in advance or follow up on during the class.

CONVERSATIONAL ENGLISH

This lesson is targeted specifically to your needs. Together we will create a curriculum and a timeline for learning, focusing on strengthening your strong points and addressing your weak points. Let me know what your test date is and we can custom make a lesson plan, including extra exercises and resources for practicing outside of class time. This lesson is not limited to state organised exams, we can also prepare for your school or university exam, no matter what your level or age.

TEST PREPARATION

Whether you work in English every day and have identified areas of your English that you need to improve, or you have occasional interactions with English-speaking business associates and want to feel more comfortable in those interactions, this lesson is the perfect lesson for you. The class is designed to identify your sticking points in English and to help you target these areas, but also to identify your strengths, expand your vocabulary and improve your confidence. You will practice speaking English proficiently, but also assertively, focusing on particular language that helps you communicate more effectively in a business setting.

Before receiving this certificate an understanding was required of the challenges and opportunities posed by teaching with limited resources. This certificate is evidence of my ability to meet these challenges and benefit from the opportunities.

The basic requirement for this certificate was attendance at an intensive teacher training course. As well as this, it was necessary to complete the required in-class tasks and assessments. Crucial to acquiring this certificate was the design and implementation of a lesson plan with a class of 5 or more students, aimed at teaching a particular grammar point. I received excellent marks and feedback on all activities but particularly my lesson planning.

Requirements for this certificate included completion of all tasks and assessments. The content covered in this course equipped me with a knowledge of TEFL/TESOL theory and practice and enables me to competently teach students of English, from course design to lesson planning, through to assessment.

This course equips me to teach larger classes, managing many people, younger and older, and holding the attention of all students, regardless of differing abilities in understanding and speaking English.

Leçon professionnelle

French lessons geared towards young learners from the ages of 5 to 18 years old. 

The 30-minute-long class is dedicated to young students from the ages of 4 or 5 and up who want to learn French in a fun and interactive way. I will speak French as much as possible but with the possibility of giving instructions and explanations in English if necessary. However, I am a huge proponent of the immersion philosophy. Children learn languages really quickly and easily. They understand without having the need to translate like adults often do. Each class will be fun and interactive, with a mix of grammar, vocabulary, phonics, singing, math and games:)

The 45-minute lessons are reserved for kids of all levels, that have the maturity and attention span allowing them to sit in class for 45 minutes.

The one-hour lesson is reserved for older children and adolescents who are studying French at school and want to improve on their skills. Please do not reserve an adult lesson for your adolescent. I have worked really hard at my own material to teach children and young adults.

For better results it is best to book 5 consecutive classes as the lessons build upon themselves. :)

If you have any doubts as to which lesson would be best for your child, please contact me and I'll be glad to answer all your questions. Another option would be to meet me first by booking a trial lesson.

I hope to see your child in class soon:)
Kiki
