English and/or Spanish for effective communication

Von 21.73 Fr /Std

Hi there,

My name is Gaizka, Spanish and Basque are my mother tongues. I spent 9 years in the UK and I took my degree - See profile photo - in Edinburgh last summer.

My approach to teaching is pragmatic and sympathetic. I understand your struggle because I lived that struggle for a long time when I moved to the UK in 2009. My main interest is to make you feel confident with what you know and see how much you can stretch that knowledge in real life communication. And then we grow and improve from there.

You learn a language to communicate. You say something and you get a reply. You are understood and you understand. That is the only thing that matters, that you can use what you know and communicate more and better as you learn.

I will adapt my lessons to your need and your preferred lesson/learning style with strong focus on growing your confidence with the language. All can be discussed via Apprentus or on the first day.

Über mich

Kaixo !

Hey there, My name is Gaizka, I am 37 years old visual artist recently arrived to Rotterdam after a bit of traveling in Europe. I graduated from Edinburgh Napier University last year and I left the UK having lived there since 2009. Because among other things, well, Brexit.

Teaching is a vocation that I was drawn into in my early twenties and over the years I have taught various subjects including Spanish, Basque, Music, Photography or English. T adults and children, to individuals and groups.

I have natural personal qualities that make me very good at listening and communicating. I am patient, supportive and compassionate with my students. I understand your struggle because in the past I spent A LOT of time there. I understand from first hand the process of learning a language. How important is to feel confident and to see that you can make use of your knowledge in real life, since that is what you are learning the language. To use it on your travels, your holidays, with your mates, your partner whatever...

drop me a line and we can maybe arrange a meeting to discuss your needs and how can I help you.

Un saludo.

Gaizka

*Subjects available: All Primary subjects (e.g., literacy and English, maths and numeracy, social subjects, sciences etc.) and German and Spanish to Advanced Higher/A-Level*

My name is Zoe and I am a fully qualified and registered Primary Teacher working in Glasgow. Before moving into education, I completed my undergraduate degree in German and Spanish at the University of St Andrews (2020) and speak both languages to an advanced level (C1 of CEFR). I am currently working part-time as a Primary Teacher and tutor while I also undertake a Master's in Psychology at the University of Glasgow.

I have taught from Primary 2 - 7 and am also qualified to teach pupils until the end of S3. I have a background in working with primary school pupils with additional support needs, including ASD, AD(H)D, dyslexia, dyspraxia and dyscalculia. As such, I am confident meeting the needs of all learners to ensure I provide the most appropriate support.

I believe in a child-centred education and always adapt my teaching to the needs, abilities and personalities of pupils. Quality learning only takes place when positive relationships are in place, so I take great pride in developing trusting and respectful bonds with pupils. I use a range of strategies to keep learning engaging and challenging, including games, online tools and quizzes. I am happy to engage with and offer advice to parents and carers during sessions. I have evening and weekend availability - please feel free to get in touch to discuss this.

I have weekend and evening availability.

Online learning only!!!
Learning German seems to be difficult but if you are Learning about the culture, the grammar and the pronunciation it will be easy to understand and speak the language.
From A1 to C2 at any level I will provide a plan for any occasion personalised to your needs to be successful.

If it is for holiday travelling abroad or school or business I can provide all for you. Interested in learning the lyrics and the meaning of rammstein also no problem at all.

Learning about German culture alongside learning the language.
60% of vocabulary is already the same as the English language and I will teach you how to pronounce these words.

I was born in Germany and moved to the UK when I was 30 years old. I grew up bilingual with my German dad and my English mother. Teaching my two daughters both languages with ease.
Now I am studying Linguistics in German and English to make it official and to back up my knowledge with a title.

Come and join my class.
