Many English learners are eager to improve their vocabulary. This is good and should be encouraged. Unfortunately, this eagerness is usually driven by a common misconception that having a wide vocabulary translates to fluency. However, this isn't the case as an understanding of sentence structure, plays a greater part in being able to communicate effectively in English.

The ability to structure your sentences correctly entails knowing the different parts of speech and their placement within each sentence.

Every sentence in English includes words that fall into some or all of the different parts of speech and having a thorough grasp of this aspect of the language and how they're ordered (sentence structure), helps confer fluency.

As such, the focus of this class (which is in 3 lessons) will be on the different parts of speech found in the English language and their order within a sentence (Sentence Structure).

There are 9 parts of speech in English. Lesson 1 focuses on Nouns, Prepositions and Verbs in great detail. Lesson 2 deals with Articles, Adverbs and Adjectives in great detail while lesson 3 looks at Articles, Conjunctions and Interjections in great detail also.

The objective of this series of classes is to familiarize students with these concepts.

Please note that I teach a separate class (Part 2) that focuses on Auxiliary and Modal Verbs and it is advisable to complete all lessons under part 1 before proceeding to part 2 taking in order to achieve fluency.

So what should you expect from the class?

As always, my classes follow a specific format. In each class I explain concepts using different methods, provide numerous examples and check for student understanding. I also provide classroom exercises to further cement any newly acquired knowledge.

That's it folks! I look forward to seeing you in my class.

SO you have learnt about the different parts of speech. Fantastic! Now, all you need to learn about are

AUXILIARY AND MODAL VERBS.

Many English learners are eager to improve their vocabulary. This is good and should be encouraged. Unfortunately though, this eagerness is usually driven by a common misconception that having a wide vocabulary translates to fluency. However, this isn't the case as an understanding of sentence structure, plays a greater part in being able to communicate effectively in English.

The ability to structure your sentences correctly entails knowing the different parts of speech and their placement within each sentence.

Every sentence in English includes words that fall into some or all of the different parts of speech and having a thorough grasp of this aspect of the language and how they're ordered (sentence structure), helps confer fluency.

That said, there are other aspects of the English language that you will need to learn in order to form meaningful sentences. These are Auxiliary and Modal verbs.

An understanding of Auxiliary and Modal verbs are a must as they help indicate information and modality.

The focus of this class will be on Auxiliary and Modal verbs. In this lesson, I will be teaching about Auxiliary verbs and the sort of information they help provide in great detail. I will also teach about Modal verbs and the key difference between Modal and Auxiliary Verbs.

Kindly note that the objective of this class is to familiarize students with this aspect of the language. However, fluency can only be achieved by knowing and understanding the other concepts of the English language which I cover in other classes. As such, it is advisable for you to book my other classes if your goal is to improve your English speaking skills.

So what should you expect from the class?

As always, my classes follow a specific format. In each class I explain concepts using different methods, provide numerous examples and check for student understanding. I also provide classroom exercises to further cement any newly acquired knowledge.

I am offering English lessons to students of all ages and levels as part of school, exam preparation, or just out of interest in vocabulary, grammar, and/or pronunciation. My experience has been mostly with children individually or in group lessons learning English as a second language of ages between 7 and 17. My aim is to help students establish a goal and help them along the path of reaching that goal, with clear progress milestones. I speak English at native level but I can also teach in Dutch depending on your needs. I have an English-spoken Bachelor's Degree in Politics and Law, having received an A on my International Human Rights Law thesis, a 1560/1600 on my SAT and 5/5 in AP English Language. I am also happy to do exam-specific tutoring.

Catherina is without a doubt THE best tutor we know. She is exceptionally committed and is always looking to inspire her students. She has consistently gone above and beyond the call of duty to help our son with his German. She provides excellent study material, engaging homework and follows up to ensure that her students have really grasped the subject matter.

Brian:
Catharina has been teaching our 11 year old daughter for the past few months and we are very impressed with her excellent progress in this short space of time.
Catharina has developed a very good rapport with our daughter and is patient and knowledgeable. Our daughter always looks forward to her next lesson and even hands in her homework on time! We would highly recommend Catharina to anyone who would like to learn a new language.

Afeisha:
Very professional, friendly and informative. I feel like Catharina will help me to reach where I need to. She doesn't just teach from the book, she teaches in a way that will allow you to blend in with ease. I am excited to learn more from her.

The methodology chosen for my private lessons adapts to the specific needs of the student, from the youngest (learning to read) to the most experienced: preparation for an exam, a trip abroad, a reorientation professional, ... the courses can vary from a conversation table to a more academic structure emphasizing grammar, conjugation and vocabulary, or still be based on the theme of a particular professional sector.

After having finished the International Baccalaureate at a United World College, I continued getting my BA in World Politics (cum laude) and am currently getting my master's degree at Sciences Po Paris in European Affairs. For my HL classes, I received a 7 in Global Politics, a 6 in History, and a 7 in English Lang&Lit.

I started tutoring in my own neighborhood from the age of 14, but have since gained 5 years of professional tutoring experience, including by working as a college-level student assistant. My approach to learning is influenced by my own diverse background. I have studied in the Netherlands, Armenia, Norway, and Egypt; all these places have shown me what works and what doesn't. When it comes to the IB, I strongly understand how essays should be structured and what exam strategies work best to achieve the highest results.

Hi! My name is Daniela. I am half-German and half-Mexican, and for the past nine years, I’ve called the Netherlands home. My passion for languages is rooted in my multicultural background; as a native speaker of both Spanish and German who moved abroad at age ten, I learned English early on and completed both my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in the language.

For me, languages are about more than just words, they are about connecting with different cultures. I have years of experience teaching private lessons to high school students and volunteering as an English teacher. Additionally, I hold a teaching qualification for Spanish (ELE) and am currently completing a Master’s in Language Didactics.

I love helping students improve their English by focusing on their specific goals. I personally prefer a conversation-based approach, as I believe speaking and listening are the fastest ways to master a language. However, I am more than happy to dive into grammar and structured exercises. I like to keep lessons dynamic, centering each session on a topic you’re interested in while naturally weaving in new vocabulary and rules.
