Private Tutor for English Language Reading and Writing

A partir de 31.67 $ /h

Hello, I am Jai, and I have graduated from an American middle school and high school. I am interested in helping middle school, high school, or university students with their essay-writing and reading comprehension skills. The tutor sessions will vary, depending on your goals, motivations, and needs. For instance, if you have a school assignment, we can review your work and go over your strengths and weaknesses; if you want to improve your overall English, we can structure the session as if it were an English high school class (since that is what I am most familiar with). However, since learning a language requires one to read, write, listen, and speak the language, the session will inevitably touch upon these adjacent skills.
The areas I am most experienced with tutoring are: schoolwork, standardized English-language exams (e.g., TOEFL, SAT, AP English Literature and Composition), and proofreading university-level academic writing.

You will get the most out of our sessions if you bring a general and/or specific question and clearly outline your expectations and goals.

Acerca de mí

Hello, I'm Jai, and I would consider English and Korean my native language. I graduated middle and high school in the United States, and I have a Bachelor of Sciences (BSc) in Social Sciences from Amsterdam University College. During my undergraduate studies, for two years, I was an editor for the social sciences in InPrint, a student-led academic journal. As an editor, I was responsible for revising and editing bachelor theses so that they may be published. Since high school, I have tutored English (for beginners), and I enjoy teaching English because I think the language is beautiful. (It's also a great privilege to be fluent in this language--thank you Mom and Dad!)
Something I enjoy most when teaching writing is that everyone has an idea or an opinion; however, students often have difficulty translating those ideas onto paper. I find it both challenging and fun to be with the student as they are formulating their arguments and learning to put those ideas in coherent order (i.e., writing the essay). I also enjoy reading a passage with the student and hearing their reactions to the text. It's always fascinating how people react differently to the same passage (although it's my job to make sure they don't gloss over some key points in the text)!

Italian is a fascinating and sweet language. Would you like to learn it or to improve your prior knowledge about it? I offer you the chance to do it in a friendly and relaxed way, using some of the best professional teaching methods. I'm a 33 years old Italian teacher, triggered by the desire of travelling the world. I dedicated my academic career to the study of foreign languages. What are you waiting for? Ciao, e a presto.

Hoi! My name is Diego and I am a Spanish tutor from Perú. Currently, I am a student at the Universiteit van Amsterdam. Additionally, I have a special interest in Latin American culture – which I would be happy to share with students

I design a specific learning plan for my students based on their goals and preferences.
1. Review of movies, music, and TV series.
2. Assistance with student's homework
3. Development of oral skills through conversation, presentation, and debate
4. Expansion of vocabulary and grammar skills
5. Discussion of Hispanic and Latin American politics, culture, and society

I have experience tutoring teenagers in Middle School and High School at different levels in Perú. The lessons focused on writing, pronunciation, and presentation skills in English and Spanish. I have also tutored adults who wanted to improve their fluency in Spanish.

Spanish lessons at a very different levels, from the bottom to the top: reading, listening, writing, ortography, grammar, interpretation, literature, cinema, music.
The focus is on creative experiences that fit in each student, in order to not only teaching a language, but reaching the inner will of keep following the path of knowledge and understanding.
Each lesson will be prepared under different suggestions from the students, so everyone will get personalized and general concepts
My experience is young but strong and wide: i am the author of a philosophical essay about existencialism, and currently working on five novels and music production

Hello everyone! I hold a doctorate in Italian, have been teaching Italian for 5 years and hold a CELTA teaching qualification. I've been preparing students for the A-Levels and GCSE (language + literature). I can prepare you for specific examinations, language lessons in general or teach you Italian for business. The lessons are for everyone, whatever their age or level (children to adults). I will make sure that you discover the Italian culture through the lessons, learn the correct pronunciation and of course learn some grammar. I am open to your needs and can speak a few languages to make sure you understand fully the lessons (of course, we’ll try to use mostly Italian in all our lessons depending on your level).

I can’t wait to meet my new students! 😊

These classes aim at people who want to develop their Portugueses skills, both from scratch with some previous knowledge. The pedagogical structure is adaptable to the situation; school-aged children with Portuguese parent(s) who don't always have the time and opportunity to teach them, adults who need practical advice and relatively quick skill training because of a Portuguese-speaking partner, friend, traveling, etc...
Students are always encouraged to develop their interest in the Portuguese language.

La comunicación es imprescindible y nosotros como seres sociales necesitamos de ella para entender nuestro legado con nuestra comunidad, aquella misma que identificaremos a través de un nuevo lenguaje.
Estoy segura que tanto ustedes como yo estamos deseando comenzar esta nueva etapa en nuestras vidas con la decisión firme de forjarnos positivas experiencias y recuerdos agradables.
