Professional English and Translation Services
I offer tailored English instruction and precise French-English translation for professionals. Each service is designed to effectively meet your needs.
English Teaching
What You’ll Master:
- Professional vocabulary and industry-specific terminology
- Clear, confident communication in meetings and presentations
- Grammatical accuracy in written and spoken contexts
- Cross-cultural communication awareness
- Professional small talk and networking skills
- Pronunciation refinement for clarity
How It Works:
English teaching tailored to your specific needs – business communication, general English, or a blend adapted to your situation.
We begin with an initial assessment session to identify your specific objectives and current level. From there, I design a personalised programme targeting your needs – whether that’s preparing for client presentations, working on grammatical accuracy, or developing fluency and pronunciation.
Lessons are conducted entirely in English for maximum immersion. As a native French speaker, I can provide clarifications in French when this genuinely accelerates understanding, particularly for complex grammatical points or nuanced expressions.
Systematic Vocabulary Building:
Each student receives a personalised vocabulary database tracking every new term encountered in our lessons, complete with example sentences and French translations. I’ll also guide you through a simple process to convert these into digital flashcards for spaced repetition practice using AnkiApp. This method is proven to dramatically improve retention and allows you to build vocabulary systematically between sessions. The setup takes just a few minutes, and the ongoing process is straightforward – but the results are substantial.
This approach is a core part of my teaching methodology because consistent vocabulary exposure over time is essential for genuine progress.
