About Alexandra
I taught in China for a year in classes of Chinese students from 12 to 16 years. Levels were quite low, and we focused on grammar, simple vocabulary and pronunciation of words. I then pursued teaching in France with one to one classes. I followed four students from "terminale", helping them to their written and oral English, as well as other materials. Their results were excellent in the Baccalaureate. I also taught adults wishing to improve their professional English, where we focused on technical articles by reading The Economist, for example.

Graduated from Sciences Po, with a double Franco-Irish nationality, I offer courses at all levels. I already have several years of tutoring experience such as preparing for the baccalaureate, British Council exams, or to improve the general and professional level of an adult. I adapt as needed. If the level is sufficient I only speak English during the class, using written materials, such as newspaper articles. For the preparation of specific tests, I suggest topics and themes that we can prepare together. I also am very careful to accents and pronunciation. I'm very open, easy to access and get really involved in my student's progress.
Recommendations
Recommendations come from relatives, friends and acquaintances of the tutor.
I'm half Irish, but have lived in Paris most of my life and usually speak French. I speak English fluently but was looking for help to improve my grammar, spelling etc for writing. Alexandra is a family friend and she has helped me to improve massively in these areas. She is always on time and prepared for our lessons, enthusiastic and encouraging. I would highly recommend her for anyone looking to improve their English, whatever their level of fluency is.
Alexandra a été une super aide pour la préparation de mon bac ! Elle était très disponible, efficace et le cours était toujours agréable et intéressant. Je la recommande pour tout ceux qui ont besoin de progresser rapidement.
Alexandra m'a suivi pendant toute mon année de terminale, où elle m'a entraîné pour mes oraux et écrits d'anglais, ainsi que d'autres matières. J'ai eu d'excellentes notes au bac (mention bien), et j'ai même été admise dans une université anglaise grâce à son aide pour la rédaction de lettre de recommandation et la constitution du dossier.
Alexandra est pédagogue, patiente et rend chaque cours intéressant par sa connaissance de la culture anglo-saxonne.Excellente professeur d'anglais, très pédagogue et patiente. A le mérite d'être binationale et donc de parler un anglais parfait, c'est très utile pour préparer les oraux du bac !
Se démènera pour vous trouver des sujets de conversation d'actualité, techniques et intéressants : avec elle, on ne s'ennuie pas !Alex is an experienced teach of English as a Foreign Language. I was recommended to Alex by a common friend and we've spent quite a few months together to work on my English.
We've worked on many of my difficulties. Here are just two examples that I recall all the time:
Prononciation: I had always found it quite difficult to pronounce certain words (e.p. ally). Alex takes time to explain how 'a' should be correctly pronounced in English. I find it quite important because the pronunciation of the vowel 'a' in English is not quite the same as in French.
Grammar mistakes: I always make some grammar mistakes unconsciously when I speak English. Alex wouldn't interrupt and correct my mistakes immediately. Otherwise, I would feel less confident and discouraged. She'd wait and find a chance afterwards to let me know what are the mistakes and what are the correct and natural way to say it.
I quite often felt lighthearted and optimistic after the lesson and I started to read more in English.
I know that learning a foreign language can be difficult, but it's also a truly joyful journey to have a gifted and passionate teacher like Alex to help you and inspire you!

Alex est une professeure expérimentée dans l'enseignement de l'anglais en tant que langue étrangère. Elle m'a été recommandée par un ami en commun et nous avons passé quelques mois ensemble pour travailler sur mon anglais.
Nous avons travaillé sur mes nombreuses difficultés. Voici 2 exemples dont je me souviens :
- Prononciation: J'ai toujours trouvé difficile la prononciation de certains mots comme "ally. Alex a pris le temps de m'expliquer comment le "a" doit être prononcé correctement en anglais. Ce qui est très important car la prononciation de la voyelle "a" en anglais n'est pas la même qu'en Français.
- Erreur grammaticale: J'ai toujours fait des erreurs de grammaire en parlant anglais. Dans ces cas là, Alex prenait le soin de ne pas m'interrompre lorsque je parlais. Cela aurait pu me décourager et entamer ma confiance. Au contraire, elle attendait de trouver un moment plus tard pour me dire quelles étaient les erreurs et me les corriger.
Souvent, après les cours je me sentais léger et optimiste et j'ai commencé à lire beaucoup plus de livres en anglais.
Apprendre une langue étrangère peut être difficile mais c'est aussi un voyage enrichissant que de le faire avec un professeur doué et passionné comme Alex.View more recommendations
