About Elise
Licences de Lettres Modernes - Philosophie, Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne 2015
Master in Modern and Contemporary European Philosophy, University of Luxembourg 2017
Certificate in teaching English as a Foreign Language, TEFL Rome 2019
I have two years of experience teaching private classes (academic tutoring, French and English) and have taught for one year and a half at a Luxembourgish high school, which allowed me to gain experience with the expectations and functioning of the Lycées Classiques, as well as with the difficulties young students can experience in a multilingual environment.
French and Dutch are my mother tongues, and I have spoken English fluently since I was fifteen. I understand and speak German and Luxembourgish very well, and also speak some Italian.
What I enjoy the most: both improving a student's mastery of a language and their intellectual skills or knowledge of the world (as well as their self-confidence).
I only accept students with whom I can work long-term and on a weekly basis, and it is important to me we get along on a personal level: these conditions are essential for the student to progress.

I offer courses for the following students:
- Primary or secondary students who are experiencing problems either in English or in French.
- High school students who are having problems with analyzing, interpreting or commenting on texts, or with writing more complex pieces of work.
- High school students who want to prepare themselves as well as possible for their future university classes.
My method varies according to the student’s individual profile and goals, but these are the essentials:
English & French:
- Once the grammar has been acquired (which takes a lot less time than vocabulary), we continue to revise it of course, but the key towards great improvement is to focus as much as possible on the acquisition of new vocabulary and expressions.
- Playful vocabulary learning methods involving movement and images, repeated and spaced out quizzes so that the student remembers the meanings of the words better.
- Choice of texts appropriate to the tastes, level and age of the student.
- I encourage the student to take an interest in French and American/British culture and include cultural elements as much as possible in my courses and in my homework (music, art, films, pop culture, literature…)
- Ideally, the student writes a short piece every week for me, which I then correct.
Improvement of analytical and interpretative capacities
- Here we work on more difficult texts that contain valuable ideas that will both challenge and emotionally involve the student.
- How to read a text or a book? Many student can read only on a literal level, but don’t really know how to reflect on a text and make it their own. I give them the tools to become more proactive in their learning.
- The student will receive books or texts from me and will have to debate on them with me: can the student correctly represent complex ideas? Can they link them to their own experience? The more a student progresses the easier it becomes to remember and assimilate new knowledge, so this process, even if it takes time, can be a very rewarding experience for the student.
- Together with work on analytical and critical skills, we work on the student’s capacity to clearly express their ideas in writing.
- I also try to stimulate the student’s intellectual curiosity as much as possible, by recommending or lending them books and making them discover intellectual content on social media.
Sometimes, the student wishes to combine the two approaches as much as possible (so an improvement of both linguistic and intellectual skills), which is of course entirely possible.
Review
All of our reviews are collected by us and are 100% reliable. They correspond to a real experience had by the students of Elise.
Perfect! My daughter is 7 1/2 years old and just getting started with French. We have been looking for someone that could get her to learn in a playful manner and at the same time can take her to the level required at school for level 3.1 within the next 18 months. Elise has immediately clicked with our daughter and Anastasia is looking forward to her next session with Elise each week. Elise manages to have her consolidate new vocabulary and improve the way she speaks in French while playing and they made rapid progress in a matter of few lessons. Elise is very professional and approachable, providing also regular feedbacks to us after each lesson. Definitely a Superprof!

Mon fils a tout de suite aimé travailler avec elle, le contact est bien passé. Elle l'aide en ce moment à développer son vocabulaire pour se sentir plus à l'aise pendant les cours, et elle est toujours très positive et encourageante. Super!
Der französische Unterricht war für meine Tochter sehr stressig geworden, und ich wusste nicht, wie ich ihr helfen konnte. Nach sechs Monaten intensiver Nachhilfe mit Elise ist sie schon viel selbstbewusster, und schaut sich sogar manchmal einen französischen Film an (vorher unmöglich). Sie muss noch immer arbeiten, aber die Nachhilfe und die täglichen Übungen haben gut funktioniert. Elise ist immer sehr freundlich aber hat auch hohe Erwartungen, und hat mich auch auf dem Laufenden gehalten. Sehr gute Lehrerin.
Elise est une professeure extrêmement attentive, encourageante et sympathique qui m’a proposé des cours de français ciblés et adaptés à mes besoins et intérêts. J’avais l’intention de rafraîchir et approfondir mes connaissances en français comme je ne l’avais plus utilisé fréquemment pendant quelques années. C’est pourquoi on a beaucoup travaillé sur mon expression écrite et orale. J’ai écrit des textes sur des thèmes qui m’intéressaient, Elise me les a corrigés et en révisant le texte ensemble, on a pu découvrir les erreurs que je faisais typiquement et on a pu parler de la syntaxe à optimiser. À la base de mes textes ou en référence à des articles et des vidéos qu’Elise avait choisis en avance, on a discuté sur des thèmes divers et j’ai pu travailler mon vocabulaire et ma capacité de m’exprimer librement. Elise m’a inspiré à réintégrer le français dans ma vie quotidienne (livres, films, journaux…) et j’en suis très reconnaissante. Les cours avec Elise m’ont vraiment plu et je peux la recommander à 100 pour cent.
Elise est très sympathique, on apprend avec elle dans la bonne humeur et on aborde des sujets intéressants. On fait de l'écoute, de la conversation, des exercices, de la lecture... Je me sens beaucoup plus confiant en anglais. Je la recommande!
Elise is really terrific! She helped my kids develop their French (they really like her), and I took lessons with her as well. Well-prepared and professional, she really pays attention and helps you to improve! I highly recommend her.

Details
If people ask me to work more intensely with the student, it is possible for me to give them a short written assignment by text message five days a week, which I then correct.
If a student cancels less than 24 hours in advance, 50% of the course is still due. When I cancel less than 24 hours in advance, we try to reschedule the course that same week for 50% of the normal price. If we can’t find a second time slot that works for the both of us that week, the lesson is cancelled.
