About Me

Dear all,
I've been teaching for 28 years now ( I really don't look that old though :). Teaching is my passion. I love it and couldn't imagine doing anything else. I am currently a teacher and coordinator at an amazing International school in Brussels. I have a knack for teaching little children to read and write (phonetically). I am a spontaneous, imaginative, fun teacher. I work using common sense and a feel for the class/student. I give small group lessons, 3-4 children. This makes lessons more fun and adds a healthy sense of competition which in turn increases progress. I teach at my place, close to Square Ambiorix and Schuman.

Education

Primary, secondary at a Catholic school in Kuala Lumpur.

A levels (English Law, Literature, Economics), LMC (London Montessori Degree), Piano Graduate (Royal English board of music)

Experience / Qualifications

I used to be a Montessori teacher for 10 yrs (LMC degree). The only time I wasn't a teacher was when I was head hunted in Asia, to work in the Research and Development Department of a Kindergarten Franchise that had just opened. Created their school books, produced, sang and recorded their educational songs.

I was also their teacher trainer. Trained their over 200 teachers. They had around 20 kindergartens all over South East Asia. Loved that job too! It had me travelling to many lovely destinations - Singapore, Thailand, Phillipines, Malaysia, to train!).
But marriage brought me here to Belgium where I got back into my first love, teaching.
I've completed my Grade 8 Piano, Theory and Practical and give piano lessons to children.
My son is a final year student at St André school. He offers French lessons, French school homework help (all subjects) for primary school children. Happy to come to your place if the location is feasible. He has been tutoring for 2 years now.

School Support (French / English / History course)
Teacher graduated from the French National Education, having worked for seven years in high school, I propose sessions of academic support mainly in these three disciplines: French, English and History. These courses can be given on a regular basis or punctually according to your needs. Very accustomed to children and teenagers, during my teaching years I developed various methods to motivate discouraged students and help them achieve their goals.

Annelise
Native English teacher for children and teenagers.
I've been teaching English to small children up to teenagers at École Française Internationale. I give lessons for beginners and intermediate levels. I mix between French and English so the pupil doesn't get too confused, but also allows them to understand every detail. For beginners, we usually talk about our surroundings, what's close to us and what affects us on a daily basis. (Numbers, directions, the weather, asking simple questions, what's a noun and pronoun and where to put them in a sentence). I like to find playful activities so that the pupil/student is in control of their work. It also stimulates their motivation. Of course, this is an example for a certain age group, but it also varies depending on their knowledge and their age. For intermediates, we make basic conversation. Ex: How do you go to school; What do you do in your free time? ; What's the weather like? The lessons depend on whether the student is learning for their personal knowledge or if it's for school. -------------------------------- The start of the course with a new learner consists of detecting their level by talking about their background, what they already know, what they must master in order to no longer have any gaps. The first lesson also allows the learner to get comfortable and get to know me to establish mutual trust. That’s why I use a touch of my British humor to achieve this. (I generally do this at the start of the lesson with my students to establish a good mood and they are always delighted!) To help the learner better engage with the learning, I will ask them what their passions/hobbies are, this who interests him to arouse interest in learning. I will adapt my lessons on subjects that speak to him more. Depending on age and level of knowledge of English, the method will vary. I play with songs if it's for vocabulary or accent, it helps me memorize better and what's better in song... Everyone listens to music! No matter the reason for the course, if it is to improve oral, written, reading or listening comprehension, I organize audio sessions, readings, everything necessary to deepen the language using the active pedagogy that I learned during my CAP training. I can play the news from the BBC news channel, the weather forecast, the trailer for a film. My goal is for the learner to evolve gradually with as few gaps as possible.
