Une approche basée sur l'accompagnement, l'autonomie
et l'aisance orale
Installé à Paris depuis 2007, je suis originaire du Texas et je suis professeur de français et d'anglais depuis 2010. Ma passion pour les langues m'a conduit à poursuivre des études en enseignement des langues étrangères, une aventure éducative de six ans partagée entre les USA et Paris.
Ma méthode pédagogique vise à encourager une aisance rapide à l'oral et à développer une autonomie totale dans l'apprentissage de mes apprenants. Je suis certifié QUALIOPI et suis habilité à proposer des formations financées par le Compte Personnel de Formation (CPF)."

Accompagnement, autonomie & aisance
Ces trois pilliers fondamentaux sont au coeur d'un programme sur mesure en 5 étapes accompagné d'un soutien continu qui vous permet de progresser rapidement en ciblant les compétences dont vous avez besoin. Le rythme intensif, avec un minimum de 2 cours de 50 minutes par semaine, favorise une assimilation améliorée de la langue, vous permettant d'augmenter rapidement votre aisance orale.

How can I complete several modules in one training?There are 5 levels of language proficiency. Each level includes modules, and you can complete 1, 2 or 3 modules in a single training. When you start your courses, you will be assigned a starting level and module. For example, B1.8 (level B1, module 8). With James, you establish the level and module you want to achieve at the end of the training. Each module includes 12 lessons of 50 minutes + additional activities. Here are some examples of possible training:
