Ciao! I have been teaching Italian for the past twelve years. I have taught privately and at language schools like La Scuola Italiana del Greenwich Village in New York and ItalCultura, the school of the Italian Cultural Institute of Chicago. During the first few lessons I will make sure you have the tools to pronounce and identify all the sounds of the Italian language. This step is essential! And it will make everything easier afterwards. When I teach Italian I try to avoid all the things that I hated as a language student. We will use real songs, real literature, do real conversation and storytelling. When you are engaging all your senses it is easier to keep your mind relaxed and to remember new words.

I will customize my materials to your interests, needs and desired pace. And because you are learning from a native Italian you will also learn about Italian culture and history. You will absorb a way of thinking, not just grammar rules.

I speak a bunch of languages so I know a thing or two about how tedious language classes can be. My terrifying French teacher in middle school made us repeat the same fake dialogue from a really bad book ad nauseam, over and over and over again. Some of those dialogues are carved in my brain: “Bonjour, je m’appelle Richard Drapeau, je viens du Canada, je suis Canadien...”

When I teach Italian I try to avoid all the things that I hated as a language student. We will use real songs, real literature, do real conversation and storytelling and we will go on “talking walks” because when you are engaging all your senses it is easier to keep your mind relaxed and to remember new words.

I hold a degree in Lingue e Letterature Straniere (Foreign Languages and Literatures) from Università Roma Tre (equivalent to an American MA) and a Master’s of Fine Arts in Interdisciplinary Arts and Media from Columbia College Chicago. I wrote a thesis about translating a long epic poem by W. H. Auden and I tried to ride a horse across America.

I would like to learn a new language with you, with joy! Either for school, university or your own interest. I grew up speaking primarily Italian and German, which helped me a lot with learning new languages without much effort. I want to help you to reach your goals by introducing learning methods and adapting it to your own learning behaviour.

I specialize in teaching Greek to beginners and intermediate students, providing them the foundation to master this difficult language. I cover topics such as word order, grammar, spoken vs. written Greek, conversational and every day Greek, as well as spelling, writing, and pronunciation. Each class can be tailored to the students individual needs. This class is for anybody who just wants to improve speaking/writing, as well as for those just starting out.
Lessons can be given online, or in person.
Greek is a language that is increasingly spoken, and is useful in many aspects of life, including but not limited to: biology, geometry, medical terminology, etc. With Greece's economy growing, it is an ideal destination to move either as an expat, digital nomad, or as a startup company. I look forward to helping you on your journey of acquiring this language!

Who? I am a twenty-eight-year-old French and U.S. Anthropology student. I am trained in FLE (French as a Second Language) and have worked for the National French Education Ministry as a Middle School Teacher on the beautiful island of Mayotte. Following that exotic experience, I decided to change course and study Anthropology all the while teaching French as a Second Language on a freelance basis. I moved to the Netherlands just recently and have decided to continue practicing as a French tutor. I have also tutored English classes in France for five years.

What? I offer French or FLE (French as a Second Language) courses based on multiple sources and I regularly renew them because it is important to be in adequacy with today's society. As I just started learning Dutch, I teach in English all the while aiming for 90% French during the class.

Where? Normally I go to the learner's home. For the moment, online courses are also popular.

When? I work every day of the week.

Do you want to learn German from a native?

I can teach you German depending on your needs. Wether you want to practice your grammar or speech and conversational skills (or all) is up to you. At first we would determine your level and wishes, from then on I will teach you with my study material and we will practice together. I have build my study material while living abroad in Spain. There I had students from all ages that I thought German to. I always try to incorporate creativity and fun into my lessons. Homework is also a recommended part of the lessons.

The classes can be held in person in Rotterdam or online!

I can fully adapt the course to your preferences. Just let me know your wishes :)

I am looking forward to hearing from you!
Ich freue mich, von dir zu hören!

My name is Mohamed from Syria, and I hold a degree in Business Administration. My journey with the English language began with a deep passion for learning it. Through dedication and hard work, I mastered the language using Cambridge curricula and other studies, achieving an advanced academic level (C1). This accomplishment inspired me to turn my passion into a mission, becoming an English teacher to support students eager to learn.

For the past three years, I have been volunteering as an English teacher in a non-profit organization, teaching both beginner-level students starting from scratch and intermediate levels (B1-B2).

My Teaching Approach:
I believe that learning English should be enjoyable and easy to apply in everyday life. My teaching method focuses on:

- Simplifying Grammar: Presenting rules in a clear and straightforward manner.
- Improving Speaking Skills: Developing conversational fluency with an emphasis on pronunciation and accent improvement.
- Interactive Activities: Using diverse educational activities to engage students.
- Practical Application: Addressing all aspects of the language that one might need in daily life, whether as a student or for other personal and professional purposes.

Hello! 👋

My name is Rafael and I’m from Portugal! :)

I would love to help you on this adventure of learning the Portuguese language.
I’m fluent in teaching both bacalhau Portuguese and caipirinha Portuguese (PT & BR). I’m deeply involved with both cultures.

My classes are tailored to meet the needs of my students. I have the experience and skills to offer conversation lessons and/or more structured classes focused on grammar.
Whatever your reason for seeking Portuguese lessons, I’m here to listen and help you in any way I can.

FYI: I’m also a musician, so we can chat a lot about music or even incorporate it into our Portuguese lessons. Have you ever wanted to analyze the lyrics of Bossa Nova or Fado? If you love Brazilian or Portuguese music, we can definitely use it as class material.

I have been teaching at the Una Paloma Blanca language school in Rotterdam since 2020.

Here, I had the chance to really develop my teaching craft, working with many different students, each with their own needs and reasons for learning Portuguese. I had the opportunity to teach both European and Brazilian Portuguese to individual and group classes.

In addition to this work, I also provided private lessons to some students who needed preparation before moving to Brazil or Portugal.

In my classes, we set personal goals, and I help you with all the knowledge and experience I have.

My lessons are balanced with a good amount of conversation practice, grammar and exercises.

So, you want to learn Portuguese, but you’re still not sure if I’m the right person to help?

I would be delighted to do a lesson so we can introduce ourselves and discuss how I can assist you!

Let me show you how I can be a fun and efficient Portuguese tutor! :)

Thank you for your attention, and I hope to see you in class!

Rafael
