    English language lessons, speaking, reading, writing

    I believe that language is a powerful tool today. Not only does it help us understand the world from a different perspective, but it also teaches us the culture of the people who use it. I have had the opportunity to work with teenagers for 5 years now as a student associate in a science center, as a mentor and a lecturer in a different field. What I have learned from that experience is that first and foremost one must become a friend with their student, to understand their needs and their attitudes. I will do my best to make the classes fun by combining audio and visual material in my teaching. My field of study is Social and Cultural Anthropology.

    About Me

    Translated by Google. Click to view original.
    I am a young hardworking and highly motivated student. I am currently studying at KU Leuven, the master program for Social and Cultural Anthropology. I am determined and flexible. I believe that teaching and lecturing is my calling. I have had the opportunity to work with young students in a Research Center Petnica in Serbia. My position as a student associate had a wide array of tasks and obligations to my team, my managers as well as the students I was mentoring. They involved creating workshops, teambuilding exercises, discussions, creating schedules and giving lectures. As a mentor, I had to motivate, fact check, proof-read and edit all the information in the papers of my mentees. I have had the opportunity to work with a wonderful team of highly motivated students and managers throughout the years. This internship has equipped me with interpersonal and communication skills, as well as time management and conflict resolution. These skills have made me a good listener, a creative thinker and an innovative problem solver.

    Experience / Qualifications

    Translated by Google. Click to view original.
    My language tutoring qualifications are limited. I have officially worked as an English tutor for only 3 months. But what I lack in qualifications, I make up with my experience. I have had the opportunity to work as a Student Associate at a Research Center Petnica in Serbia, and an Undergraduate Researcher for the department of Ethnology and Anthropology at University of Belgrade, Serbia. My expertise lies in working with people, understanding social ques and nuances of individual needs. I believe I am a good communicator and an excellent listener.

    French and English certified courses from A1 to C2 level
    French and English are such beautiful and useful langages. With me you'll be able to practice your writing, reading, listening but also your speaking skills without any judgement. We'll have funny discussions and I'll show you that French is not that difficult. Having langages skills looks great on a CV but also enables you to show off to your friends and family. For children, I had many experiences as an English tutor in France, I would be very pedagogical to help kids learn while having fun.

    Business English Lessons for Effective Business Communication (online/offline)
    Apart from general English language learning, this type of classes will focus more on English business vocabulary, business writing, business conversation and listening comprehension. This class would be suitable for people who plan (or already do) to study business/economics, want to enhance business skills for the business trips/clients, want to communicate and network effectively with international people in English. For this class I will use several books as materials (popular editions) dedicated to Business English growth. I will involve much conversational practice and discussion activities of specific topics. The material (books, texts, exercises) will be shared with a student. All the classes and preparation for them will be adapted to each student individually. Feel free to contact me for questions or book a time slot for a class.

    Economics classes for University level students will be based on student's needs (some suggestions: Econometrics, Microeconomics, Quantitative Economics). For school students, it can involve advanced learning or basic Economic knowledge (aligned to student's needs). English classes will involve writing and speaking practice (based on the student's existing knowledge). I tend to explain things pretty well. I always try to assign homework for further practice. Times can be discussed with me and I do accommodate students based on mutual availability.

    Academic and Colloquial English for All Levels and Admission Tests
    As the official Faculty Proofreader for the Institute of Philosophy at the KU Leuven, I have developed a deep understanding of the common struggles both professors and the wider student body face with respect to academic writing. Whether it be formal and linguistic errors or stylistic, structural, and argumentative issues, I gathered practical tools students can systematically employ to improve their academic writing—skills which coincide with the demands of a tutoring job. I’ve designed this course as the ultimate guide to academic writing, but that’s not it. Given my experience in debate clubs in Leuven, Brussels, and Munich, as well as in hosting highly successful discussion groups with students of all stripes, I can also teach you how to deliver fantastic presentations and get your point across in the most articulate manner. As a polyglot, I can give you examples in Arabic, Farsi, Urdu/Hindi, Punjabi, and German, so if you speak any of these languages, I’ll make sure you have an easier time learning English with me. With this course, I can teach a beginner how to speak English fluently but also creatively, I can teach an intermediate speaker how to take their language skills to the next level, and I can help an advanced English speaker sharpen their presentation skills and academic writing.
