About Elise
Double Bachelor in 'Lettres Modernes' and Philosophy 2015, Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne
Master in Contemporary and European Philosophy 2017, University of Luxembourg.
Languages: French, English, German, Dutch, Italian and Luxembourgish
Working on philosophical texts - texts that challenge us, and demand rereading and reflection - is probably the best way to improve intellectually and become capable of analyzing and interpreting the world in a rigorous way. Having someone to help you learn how to read these texts, and discuss them with, is a powerful way to progress! (I know, since I had to go through all of these difficulties myself at the start of my philosophy studies). And intellectual discussions are a highly stimulating occupation of course.

High School Tutoring:
- I teach them the appropriate reading strategies for complex texts (where the meaning is not immediately clear).
- We work on the background knowledge needed to understand philosophers and write philosophical essays.
- We work on understanding the school methodology (for writing analyses and essays).
- Writing texts: we practice writing both on a 'macro' level (organization of ideas, planning beforehand, how the text should be structured) as on a 'micro' level (using formal sentences and academic vocabulary).
I also speak German and Luxembourgish, and the philosophers studied in high schools are all familiar to me.
For adults: we can work on a particular field or cluster of questions (ethics, existentialism, political philosophy, religion, epistemology...), or read a book or author together.
For children: as their capacity for abstract thought isn't fully developed yet, I work with them more on the discovery of the world through stories and questions. I encourage their curiosity, we reflect about daily events and concrete things (people's behaviour, nature, beauty...)

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 a student cancels less than 24 hours in advance, I cannot reimburse him. Generally I'm very understanding though, and usually we just catch up on the lesson later in the week.
If I cancel the course, I owe you this lesson at 50% of the usual price, to be caught up on before the next lesson.
