I have experience with kids, teenagers, and adults since 1999.

With a background in international business, operations management, and language education, I help professionals, entrepreneurs, and global teams communicate with clarity, confidence, and cultural intelligence.

* Kids and Teenagers that need help for school & test preparation
• Teams working in multicultural environments
• High-performing women building global influence

I combine language instruction with real-world application, cultural insight, and executive-level vocabulary so you don’t just “learn a language” — you use it strategically.

What Makes My Coaching Different

✔ Executive-level vocabulary and real business scenarios
✔ Conversation-focused and results-driven
✔ Customized curriculum (textbook or curated materials)
✔ Structured programs with measurable progress
✔ Cultural fluency training

The course in Italian, divided into several sections between phonetics, grammar, and vocabulary, aims to provide students with the basics of every day Italian, ensuring them a good command of the essential vocabulary, useful to support both the conversation, understand written Italian and knowing how to write texts in this language.

I am Laura , a Spanish woman living in The Hague. I have been teaching and helping high school students with their homework and study methods since 2014 as a private tutor. I have experience as a language teacher in different schools in Madrid (extracurricular activities) for children between 3 and 10 years old. I work as a Spanish teacher since 2019 in various countries, helping numerous students to improve their speaking, listening and writing skills.

I studied Nutrition and Dietetics (4 years bachelor) at Complutense University of Madrid. Later and determined by my love for languages, I completed the BA in Linguistics in Leiden University, following the Brain and Cognition specialization, which focuses in how language and second languages learning works in a neural level.

Depending on the goal, the learning or lesson method is different. Normally, the first day I meet the student and we talk about what he or she expects and the topics we need to pay more attention. From that, I organise and structure a learning plan for reaching the desired goals (listening, speaking, writing, etc) or level (A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2).

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!
Laurie

The lessons are adapted to your needs and we can certainly work on specific goals.
I have more than 40 years of experience with the English language, have lived in South West England for > 16 years and worked for many years in business in both the UK and the Netherlands.

Welcome to French Class! 🇫🇷✨For children 👧👦🫶

I’m Valerie, an experienced French teacher working with the Alliance Française in collaboration with the European School. I’ve been teaching kids online for years, and here’s the thing — it works amazingly well! Parents are often skeptical at first. I get it. Online learning can sound a bit... off. But surprise! Kids love it.

Why does it work so well?
✅ They’re at home, comfy and relaxed — no stress, no pressure.
✅ Learning feels natural and fun, with games, songs, videos, and even role-plays to keep things interesting.
✅ We create together! From crafts and memory games to designing fun activities they can even share and play with their parents afterward.
✅ It’s super convenient for parents. No driving around, just a simple click, and voilà!

I teach children aged 6 to 12 online, and they’re absolutely thriving. Some are even preparing for their DELF A2, B1, or B2 exams with great results.

And if you’re wondering if it’s worth trying — why not just give it a go? You might be surprised at how much your child loves it.

Learning a language doesn’t have to feel like an obligation. In my lessons, it becomes something you use: in real conversations, at work, at school, and in everyday life. I teach children, teenagers, and adults, always adapting to the age, level, and goals of the student. Through roleplays, simulations, and practical exercises tailored to you, you don’t just learn vocabulary and grammar, you build the confidence and skills to truly function in Dutch.

When we set an objective, we work toward it step by step. At the same time, we create a supportive space together where mistakes are part of growth. You can expect clear progress, personalized guidance, and lessons that help you move from understanding Dutch to confidently owning it.
