IB/ IGCSE program for international school students in French and English

Van 47 € /h

Bonjour, my name is Olivia; I have a Master in teaching French language as well as the certification for the IB program (bilingual exam) for foreign or french high-school students. For the past 10 years I have taught at International Schools and given private tuition to students of different ages.

My main topic is the preparation of the IB program for high-school students including IGCSE, AB initio, Language B and language A, Standard level or high level. The principal parts of the IB program are developing the skills of understanding a context and a topic, as well as being able to give an opinion; speaking and writing are important but if you don't know what you are talking about, no language would be helpful. When I teach I always make sure that we reflect on the designated subject and we look for appropriate words to express it....Thinking before talking is one of the golden rule of the IB program

For the past 21 years, I've lived in Asia and taught different nationalities therefore I have developed an inspiring and interactive method to teach French language taking into account the personality of each student; not everyone learn at the same pace

I hope to meet you soon for the lessons

Over

Hello,

I am Olivia and spend my time between Amsterdam, France, and Portugal. Besides the travel , I learn everyday about the rich culture and rich differences that exist between for example the Dutch (married to one) and the French.

I teach French and IB levels to International School students and to business professionals wanting to sharpen their French skills. Teaching is a great way to connect and learn about another culture. Learning a vocabulary only gets you so far, add cultural understanding and you will unlock the key to making your French skills parfait!

I really enjoy finding creative ways to let the students experience the richness of the French language and practically link it to daily life situations. My interaction with high school-, university students, and business professionals give me the opportunity to constantly improve my lesson content and methods. Interesting content method for millennials, relevant practical use for professionals. I use various online video (sharing) tools to have engaging lessons.

Shall we try?

French Baccalaureate for first grade: Revision, preparation of files and oral training

48 € /h

The French baccalaureate is the first important test for a high school student, it is therefore a question of preparing them to learn but above all to understand; the era of rote learning is a bit over, you now have to show the examiner that you have understood the work and that you can talk about it "naturally".
Preparation is therefore essential, the work must be mastered and stress managed on the day of the test.
If you would like to help the future high school graduate, I offer revision and preparation courses for the French baccalaureate and baccalaureate.
Feel free to contact me for more information

Coach-therapist, specialty: adolescent psychology. Coaching, exam preparation and help for young people in difficulty

90 € /h

After working as an IB and French teacher, mainly for teenagers, I realized that the profession had evolved and that sometimes to pass an exam, knowledge was not enough; self-confidence, well-being, attitude and mentality have become essential components of success.
This is why, in addition to my training as an IB teacher, I followed a professional certification whose modules focused on the psychology of adolescents and their challenges in the face of a constantly changing world.
I therefore offer listening and speaking sessions for adolescents in difficulty but also programs more focused on the organization of a day, work at school and at home and finally lessons more focused on preparation mental exams.
Do not hesitate to contact me if you would like more information or make a specific request.
The secrecy of the sessions is naturally respected

As you know, speaking English is essential — especially when you’re abroad and don’t speak the local language. Whether you're starting from the basics or want to improve your fluency, I’m here to help you every step of the way!

I am an experienced French teacher who also teaches English, Armenian, and Russian. In my lessons, I focus on grammar while placing a strong emphasis on speaking and building confidence in real communication.

I’m known for being very patient, kind, and supportive, always creating a positive environment where my students feel comfortable and motivated to learn.

Classes are online .
Let’s start your language journey together — I look forward to meeting you, my lovely students! 🌟

I like to use different methods to teach French to students. It can be through songs, drama, role play or videos. I also very often use situations close to the student's experience, such as describing places they have been or talking about what they have experienced. At the same time, I teach the grammar rules to the student. I now live in regions where French has been spoken for over 30 years. Because I have learned French myself (and I am still learning other languages), I can easily put myself in a student's shoes. I can teach in French, Dutch, English, German and Russian.

I create a learning experience (content and pace) adapted to your needs: speaking fluently, DELF/ DALF test preparation, conversations to help with travel or relocation, or simply the pleasure of talking about subjects you are interested in. We can have our lessons in a relaxed atmosphere, enjoying various aspects of learning a language. It's not just about memorizing complex conjugations!

I work with a variety of online resources, all of which is shared with you after the lesson. For structure and to gauge progress, I also work with certain books depending on the level and the requirement. Unless you wish to focus on specific skills, I try to include speaking and listening during the session, while reading and writing exercises are given as homework. Grammar points are handled as and when they come up.

SOME REVIEWS:
Chevaan:
Catherina is without a doubt THE best tutor we know. She is exceptionally committed and is always looking to inspire her students. She has consistently gone above and beyond the call of duty to help our son with his German. She provides excellent study material, engaging homework and follows up to ensure that her students have really grasped the subject matter.

Brian:
Catharina has been teaching our 11-year-old daughter for the past few months, and we are very impressed with her excellent progress in this short space of time.
Catharina has developed a very good rapport with our daughter and is patient and knowledgeable. Our daughter always looks forward to her next lesson and even hands in her homework on time! We would highly recommend Catharina to anyone who would like to learn a new language.

Afeisha:
Very professional, friendly and informative. I feel like Catharina will help me to reach where I need to. She doesn't just teach from the book, she teaches in a way that will allow you to blend in with ease. I am excited to learn more from her.

Egle:
Great tutor! Catharina adapts lessons to one's needs, gives very clear explanations and most importantly works on the pronunciation of the language. With every lesson she provides lesson material.

I help both for private purposes, business and for school. My lessons are mainly result-oriented. It is my intention to achieve a maximum result in a pleasant way. I have already helped many children, young people and adults.
I adapt to the level and the intended result
I keep my lessons varied but still challenging.
I also really enjoy teaching students. I can teach them the basic knowledge they lack, while also working on the new knowledge they need to acquire.
I do my work with passion and 100% motivation.
It makes me happy to see that my students are also enjoying their progress, that's why I have a very good relationship with my students.

Hello students!

Are you ready to learn English? Then let's get started! The classes will combine entertainment and hard work. We talk in English from the very first lesson and tailor our lessons to suit your needs. All levels and ages, both online and in person!

Our lessons are adapted to your needs. We can focus on basic grammar and vocabulary, or start from scratch. On the other hand, we can also work together to prepare for official exams and deal with more complicated situations. Improving business English is also a possibility, as I have previous experience in that area.

During our lessons we will mainly use online resources, personalized activities and powerpoint. You will get some homework every lesson, so that you can further internalize what we have seen in class. The lessons can last 1 to 2 hours, depending on personal preference and availability. They are held once or twice a week.

I graduated in English Studies, where we studied General English, Morphology, Culture and Literature. In addition, I also have a Master's degree in Language Teaching, which gave me all the tools necessary to teach. I am currently studying a PhD in English Literature at the University of Lleida.

I have over 10 years of experience teaching English, plus experience teaching Spanish. I have had both face-to-face and online lessons, both in large and small groups and for individual students. I have taught from kindergarten to older students and have adapted the lessons to their levels and needs. I have also taught business English, conversation courses and exam-oriented lessons.

Hello to all of you!
I welcome you to my profile.
You would like to learn French and I would also like to teach you French.
Fortunately, French is my native language. I live in Brussels where I have taught many French courses to French speakers and also to non-French speakers in the framework of FLE (French as a Foreign Language), mostly face-to-face and also some distance learning. I want to expand the use of distance learning.
Hence my presence on this site.
My greatest wish is to help you make as much progress as possible in French.
To this end, I use a judicious combination of oral and written exchanges.
I use these conversations to introduce grammatical concepts and expand your vocabulary. All this in a fun and friendly atmosphere!
You will have to express yourself a lot in French, because my level of Dutch is average. In fact, I speak it at a "normal" pace, but with a more limited vocabulary and expressions than yours.
This may seem a little frustrating at first, but it is a real benefit to you as it forces you to express yourself in French as much as possible!
It's all in your favor!
Please contact me as soon as possible so that we can start a fruitful cooperation.

💬 Is your English pronunciation holding you back?
• Do people misunderstand you and ask you to repeat yourself?
• Do you notice that people get tired listening to you?
• Do you feel judged before you even finish speaking?

I’m Tom Lewisohn (pronounced ˈlɛvɪsən*), a native English speaker from the south of England. I’ve been teaching pronunciation to people from around the world for many years (I became a teacher at 22 and now I'm 35 – I'll let you do the maths)

* That's the International Phonetic Alphabet, a super useful way to write pronunciation. It's easier than it looks, and I can teach you!

I've developed my methods from a double master's degree in Applied Linguistics and English Linguistics plus many years of teaching and honing my skills. My methods are always backed by research, experience and student feedback.

❗ 45-minute lessons are via Zoom only

I offer one-to-one English accent coaching personalised for your needs and goals. I will help you correctly produce the sounds of English so that you can immediately start speaking with more clarity, confidence, and control – and without feeling awkward or anxious.

Although I take coaching seriously, and I want you to as well, my classes are also light-hearted and warm. People learn best when they’re enjoying themselves and feeling deeply interested, and that is my promise to you. I will correct your mistakes, but I will never shame or embarrass you for making them. My class is a place where people come to feel good and grow confidence.

⭐ English Pronunciation and Accent Coaching / Training / Reduction with a Qualified Expert Native Teacher

WHAT WILL I LEARN?
• Change key vowel and consonant sounds that cause misunderstandings
• Control your rhythm, intonation and pausing
• Build links between your hearing and speech muscles
• Breathe comfortably and strengthen your voice
• Adapt your voice appropriately for different purposes – meetings, interviews, presentations, pitches, conversations, and more

➡️ Fast pronunciation improvements – our main goal at all times

WILL I SOUND 100% NATIVE?
❗Research shows that for most adult speakers, it's just not possible after our teenage years to develop a fully native accent. So, honest accent coaching is not about training you to sound native. Instead, a good coach will train you to be understood by as many people as possible and communicate exactly what you intend. That means fixing problematic sounds and expanding your range of vocal styles by borrowing from voice acting techniques, from sounding authoritative and executive to warm and supportive.

If you do want to sound native, I can still help you – whichever accent you prefer – from the UK, USA, Australia or anywhere else. You might not sound fully native at the end, but you can still make adjustments so that you like the way you sound.

WHAT ARE YOUR METHODS?
I've learned my methods from a double master's degree in Applied Linguistics and English Linguistics plus many years of teaching. My methods are always backed by research, experience and student feedback.

• I use modern evidence-based methods including speech visualisation software, shadowing and HVPT
• I create my own original training materials tailored to YOUR individual language background, goals, requirements and preferences – I offer a customised course specifically for you, not a one-size-fits-all package
• You’ll start with controlled practice to master new sounds, then move into spontaneous speech so that these skills become part of your everyday speaking habits.

Curious to learn more or not sure if you need coaching? Send me a message and I'll be happy to give you my honest opinion.

Welcome to French Class! 🇫🇷✨For children 👧👦🫶

I’m Valerie, an experienced French teacher working with the Alliance Française in collaboration with the European School. I’ve been teaching kids online for years, and here’s the thing — it works amazingly well! Parents are often skeptical at first. I get it. Online learning can sound a bit... off. But surprise! Kids love it.

Why does it work so well?
✅ They’re at home, comfy and relaxed — no stress, no pressure.
✅ Learning feels natural and fun, with games, songs, videos, and even role-plays to keep things interesting.
✅ We create together! From crafts and memory games to designing fun activities they can even share and play with their parents afterward.
✅ It’s super convenient for parents. No driving around, just a simple click, and voilà!

I teach children aged 6 to 12 online, and they’re absolutely thriving. Some are even preparing for their DELF A2, B1, or B2 exams with great results.

And if you’re wondering if it’s worth trying — why not just give it a go? You might be surprised at how much your child loves it.
