Lesson content
Here, there are no pre-recorded lessons, only personalised content. Each lesson takes place via videoconference at a time that suits you, subject to my availability. I will send you a unique Google Meet link that we will use for all our lessons.
My aim is to allow students to practise and develop the four language skills: speaking, writing, listening and reading.
To do this, we will use a variety of activities to consolidate new learning.
I strictly follow the descriptors of the CECRL (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages).
Whether through the use of authentic documents, effective methodology or comprehension strategies, your progress will be visible from the very first lessons.
Learning
At the beginning of the lesson, we review what was covered in the last session and introduce our new topic. I take particular care to ensure that your learning needs and preferences are respected. Therefore, I never force a student to do something that they do not see the point of.
Consolidation
Following this initial learning phase, we do practical exercises to consolidate knowledge. It is essential to combine theory with immediate practice. Cognitive science tells us that the brain must be exposed to the same information seven times for it to be memorised. Therefore, we ensure that the content studied in class is revisited regularly, through homework or additional activities in class.
Practice
I pay particular attention to oral practice. Learning a written skill (comprehension or production) in isolation will create a significant imbalance in overall language knowledge. As language is a living thing, it is very important to me that my students are able to express themselves freely in French on everyday topics and subjects that are important to them.
The student's toolkit
I provide you with practical tools that will help you in your daily French learning. With each online lesson, you will receive:
