Hello, bonjour :)

French has been one of the most spoken languages in the world, and it is sometimes said that one day it will be more spoken than English in working environment in the next following decades. But it's mainly known for being the language of Voltaire and Hugo.

As far as languages are concerned, I am a French and Russian native speaker who developed huge interest for foreign languages and foreign cultures since the earliest childhood. During my previous experiences as a private tutor, learning support assistant and language assistant, I have also always enjoyed working with different people, whenever they are young or less young, pupils, students or other learners. Therefore I tailor my lessons according to my students' French level, strongest points and weakest points.

As much as I prioritise my students' needs I also prepare certain exercises myself; what I particularly enjoy about it is to alternate lessons dedicated to the French language and lessons that are more French culture-related. For instance, I could introduce French conjugation during one lesson, and the next lesson can be about some nice places to visit in France. I personally think it makes more sense to not just learn a language but also the culture that goes with it. Otherwise, learners would eventually lose every interest for a language and they would learn keep learn only for obligations: job wise, travel wise,....

Do you wish your children to become bilingual as soon as possible?
Do your children need help with revising for the next tests?
Do you need help with learning French yourself for your study, for travels, or do you just enjoy learning something new?
Then, we will discuss your goals and the best way to help you during our first lesson.
Extra informatie
A bilingual dictionary English-French is recommended during lessons. But you are also free to check any lesson related content on your laptop, mobile phone...

Over
For me, it's important to find a balance between putting my students' needs first and sharing with them the way I used to learn a language. Indeed, if the methods i have used worked for me it will work for other people too.

When it comes to learn a language, it also makes sense to learn the culture that goes with it. Therefore my lessons will not be only grammar, vocabulary, listening/verbal understanding... Topics such as French gastronomy, History, TV news,... will be brought on the table.

I enjoy adding a touch of humour and a playful touch in my lessons. French lessons will be the occasion of learning about interlinguistic puns, about French humour, and learning in a playful way, sometimes. Riddles, crosswords, or any other game can be used in teaching as well. If the French actor Molière used to talk about 'putting the useful and the pleasant together' it must be for a reason.

Leservaring
Before and after my Bachelor's degree I worked as a learning support assistant for university students with special needs. Then I gained skills as a private English and Russian tutor and helped students of different ages. During and after my studies in Hull I gave French lessons to learners of different ages and language levels, I used to be a French language assistant in a school as well.

As a passionate and versatile primary school teacher with an impactful 13-year journey in education, I wholeheartedly believe in the potential and innate talents of every child. My adventure began in Sri Lanka and led me to the Netherlands in 2018, where I've continued my mission of finding innovative ways to work with children. Currently, I'm teaching as a Montessori educator, specialising in the care and education of children aged three to six years.

I have experience in educating children in different roles as a Montessori guide, a primary school teacher, a private tutor catering to individual children's needs, and a qualified special needs teacher. These different roles have sharpened my skills and improved my ability to cater to each child's individual needs.

In addition to my experience as an educator, I also have conducted private music lessons in piano and organ for children between the ages of 3 and 10. With a gentle and patient approach tailored to each child's unique needs and age, I introduce them to the enchanting world of music. These private lessons offer young learners the opportunity to discover their creativity and the joy of playing and listening to musical instruments.

In my English language classes, I focus on enhancing the vocabulary, reading, writing skills, and grammar. But here's where it gets exciting: I also bring the flair of a qualified speech and drama teacher into my teaching strategies. This dynamic approach infuses creativity, expression, and interactivity into the language-learning process.

If you're looking for a teacher, you've found a fun, active, and incredibly patient one. I tailor my English lessons using programs to suit the levels and requirements of each child. My goal is to make learning a joyous adventure, ensuring that they not only excel in English but also develop essential speaking skills and confidence. Together, we'll embark on a journey of growth and learning that caters to the unique potential of your child.

- What do the lessons entail?
The tutoring focuses on mathematics in secondary education. I help students understand both the theory and its practical application in exercises. If necessary, I provide additional study materials, such as diagrams, summaries, or resources, to clarify the material.

- My approach
I would appreciate receiving an overview of the study material, tests, or assignments in advance that present difficulties. This allows me to properly prepare the lessons and focus on the student's specific needs. This also allows me to better assess the level.

During tutoring, I try to explain the material in a simple and understandable way, often from a different perspective than in the classroom. My goal is for the student to truly understand the material and gain more confidence. Seeing progress and achieving results together gives me great satisfaction.

- Why do I tutor?
Mathematics has always been a great passion of mine. Although my current studies no longer revolve around it, I still enjoy pursuing it. Tutoring is therefore an ideal combination of hobby and extra income for me. Naturally, I always work in a professional and structured manner.

- Experience
Since 2018, I've been tutoring students of various ages, both in primary and secondary education. I also regularly help fellow students with their learning material, which is always a positive experience.

- Who am I?
My name is Arina, I'm 26 years old and I study law. I live and study in Leuven, where I also live in student housing.

I'm an approachable, enthusiastic, and open person. This helps me quickly build trust, so students feel comfortable and confident asking questions. They know they can contact me outside of tutoring sessions if they get stuck on an exercise, and they often continue to do so afterward.

During my own high school years, I struggled with math in my first and second grades. Although I found the subject interesting, I struggled to fully grasp the material because the explanations didn't align with my learning style.

When I started tutoring (at my parents' insistence), my perspective on mathematics completely changed. My interest grew so strongly that I later pursued a degree in economics and mathematics. My love for mathematics has remained ever since.

Because math wasn't a part of my further studies, I decided to tutor myself. This way, I can share my enthusiasm and help students develop the confidence I once had to build.
