I'm a TEFL Certified (ITQUK) freelance EFL/ESL tutor. I’m also a highly skilled Finance Professional with extensive experience in the International Development sector.

My First Language is English, and I’m fluent in Afrikaans. I have intermediate level skills in French, and I’m at beginner level in Spanish, Portuguese and Arabic (MSA).

Since 2020, I've taught more than 600 lesson hours to students at varying levels. My students come from diverse backgrounds and age groups, and are located in various parts of the world, including Canada, Taiwan, France, Tunisia, England, Senegal and Belgium.

My lessons are student-centred, flexible, and fun! Lessons are continuously adapted to suit the individual; every lesson is structured based on a learner's identified needs.

The focus of lessons will initially be based on a student needs assessment carried out at the start of your course, and adapted based on your progress and changing needs throughout the duration of a specific course.

Learning areas identified may include:
* Refining your pronunciation
* Grammar (parts of speech, tenses, modal verbs, phrasal verbs, conditionals, etc.)
* Practicing everyday language and conversational skills
* Exam preparation, focusing on specific grammar and/or vocabulary
* Reading comprehension and practice
* Writing correction or practice
* Job interview preparation
* CV and cover letter drafting
* Improving listening skills
* Business vocabulary and speaking practice
* Improved confidence in using English

Lessons are conducted almost entirely in English, since this has shown to be the most effective way for students to learn a foreign or second language.

To notice an improvement in your English skills, it is recommended that you book a course of at least 20 hours to start with.

TECHNOLOGIES FOR LEARNING.

Hey,

My name is Laurie and I am an independent FLE teacher, graduated in French and Romance languages and literature since 2012. I have five years of experience under my belt (abroad and in Belgium). I have created a teaching method for online courses.

The course includes:
-The material (articles, videos, exercises from images and texts, grammatical theory, links to the exercises...). I use Google Doc so it's best to have a Gmail address to access it.
-The correction of exercises outside of class (the written expressions are corrected outside of class, or with the student, according to his needs).
-Access to an application (free) to study vocabulary on your smartphone.
-A vocabulary sheet - pronunciation - grammar / conjugation, sent after each course.
-If necessary, a vocabulary recording (for beginners).
-The realization of online exercises and tests from the sent vocabulary sheets.
-Motivation, laughter, good mood :-)

My method:
- It's based on speaking.
-For grammar I use a question/answer method (learned during the training at the CERAN center).
-We work on pronunciation with the verbotonal method (exercises for setting your voice, for rhythm, etc.). I might even make you sing! :-)
-Everything goes through the spoken word before the written word, but I clearly adapt to the needs of the students.
-The course is a little different for children and adolescents: I use interactive games and cards via webcam.

See you soon!

I have experience and passion in teaching English and achieving good results. Our focus after lessons will also be in the areas of reviews, periodic assignments and examine results progressively.We will also discuss trouble areas, creating good foundation and making use of different methods to move ahead and achieve set goals.

I like to use different methods to teach French to students. It can be through songs, drama, role play or videos. I also very often use situations close to the student's experience, such as describing places they have been or talking about what they have experienced. At the same time, I teach the grammar rules to the student. I now live in regions where French has been spoken for over 30 years. Because I have learned French myself (and I am still learning other languages), I can easily put myself in a student's shoes. I can teach in French, Dutch, English, German and Russian.

Nederlands is een mooie taal, alleen niet altijd gemakkelijk om te leren. Twee jaar lang deed ik onderzoek naar hoe een tweede taal nu precies aangeleerd wordt. Wat zijn de hulpmiddelen, valkuilen en vooral... met en gedifferentieerde aanpak.

Daarnaast kan je bij mij ook terecht voor schriftelijke en commerciële aspecten van taal zoals het schrijven van antwoorden op moeilijke vragen, nieuwsbrieven, mailverkeer,... Kortom, voor elke vraag ga ik graag samen met jou op zoek naar een oplossing of antwoord op maat.
