Private tutoring in English

In English as taught in French schools, the gap often opens up in speaking: a student who does well in written exercises can freeze as soon as they have to speak. Private tutoring offers what a school group rarely does: real speaking time and immediate correction. Grammar and vocabulary are consolidated in the service of expression, not alongside it.

The curriculum

Why take tutoring in English?

Topics covered

  • Extended speaking
  • Listening comprehension
  • Tenses and aspects
  • Modal verbs
  • Written expression

What you work on in sessions

  • Speak for two minutes on a topic without reading notes
  • Choose between the present perfect and the simple past according to meaning, not at random
  • Understand an authentic audio document and report its key points
  • Write a structured essay with a variety of linking words

Little speaking time at school

In a group of thirty students, each speaks for a few minutes a week. A one-to-one session multiplies that time and lets the tutor correct pronunciation the moment a mistake is made.

Grammar that does not hold up when speaking

Tenses and structures are known on paper but vanish in real situations. Reusing them in guided exchanges makes them automatic.

An ear to train

Authentic audio documents are fast, with a variety of accents. Without regular practice, listening remains the exam where students lose the most marks.

What NOEO brings

What you get on top of the tutoring session

Tutors vetted before they go live

NOEO reviews each tutor’s application before their profile appears. The tutor then declares the subjects and levels they teach, and never appears under any they have not declared.

Live tutoring, on Noeo Live

Sessions take place online, with the whiteboard, documents and conversation in one place. No travelling, and your choice of tutor no longer depends on distance.

A session report after every session

The tutor writes a session report at the end of every session, readable by the student and, for a minor, by their parents. Their payout stays on hold until that report has been sent.

The replay and documents, after the session

The session recording and the documents used stay available in the student’s space: a concept that was not quite understood can be revisited without waiting for the next session.

Revision material between sessions

From a session and its report, the student generates their revision sheet, flashcards and quiz in Noeo Learn, then revises at their own pace.

Follow-up suited to the student

An independent student keeps their space to themselves. For a minor, parents see the sessions, session reports and messages, and decide how much independence to give them.

School success and study choices

How can you improve your English at collège and lycée?

To make progress in English at collège (lower secondary school) and lycée (upper secondary school), first assess your real skills (listening and reading comprehension, speaking and writing) with simple tests. Adopt a 15-minute daily routine alternating listening, reading and production, reusing vocabulary and grammar in sentences of your own. Learn vocabulary in context (concrete examples, common expressions) rather than in isolated lists, so you remember and apply it better.

Methods and revision

Flashcards: how to create and use them without wasting time

A flashcard is useful when it asks a precise question, when the student looks for the answer before checking it and when the cards are reviewed at spaced intervals. Stick to one idea per card and vary the types: definitions, distinctions, examples and common mistakes. For complex skills, flashcards remain a complement to practice, not a substitute for it.

Methods and revision

Spaced repetition: how to memorise better over several weeks

Spaced repetition means reviewing a piece of knowledge several times, leaving time between each review, rather than concentrating everything into a single session. There is no universal schedule: intervals should be adapted to the deadline, the content and the difficulty encountered. A simple rule: no answer, come back soon; a hesitant answer, a moderate delay; a precise answer, space it out further.

Frequently asked questions

Your questions about tutoring in English

Do the sessions prepare for the TOEIC or IELTS?

On NOEO, certifications are separate subjects, declared separately by the tutors who prepare for them. Their profile shows it.

Are the sessions held in English?

That is agreed with the tutor, depending on the student's level: the aim is to speak as much as possible, with explanations in French when they help.

How do you improve listening comprehension?

By listening little but often: a short document, replayed until it is fully understood, then summarised aloud. The tutor chooses material suited to the student's level and interests.

Is the LLCER English speciality covered?

It depends on the tutor: the speciality (English language, literature and culture, chosen in depth at lycée) requires analysing literary texts in English, a different exercise from the core language course. Mention it in your first message.

My child freezes when speaking out of shyness: what can we do?

A one-to-one setting, away from the rest of the group, often removes that obstacle. Sessions start with short, guided exchanges, then speaking time lengthens from one session to the next.
