PRIVATE LESSON OF ENGLISH GRAMMAR (learning and consolidation)

Translated using Google Translate. Click to view original.
Many French people admit not feeling at ease when they have to express themselves in English to English-speaking people. They understand well what they hear but do not have solid keys to express themselves with ease, fluidity, by constructing rich sentences.

They think that what they lack the most is the vocabulary but generally, what they lack the most are grammatical keys on which to build everything.

The grammar of a language is the equivalent of the foundations of a house. Without foundations, a house crumbles. Without grammar, the expression remains wobbly, approximate, even false to the point of sometimes becoming incomprehensible.

This is why I offer private lessons exclusively in English grammar to allow you to weld your "foundations" and free your expression by giving you confidence.
Together, we will take, deepen and consolidate your grammatical knowledge
We will reinforce your mastery of the fundamental structures of the language and will also work on the idioms which English people love and which will allow you to make a difference.

In order to progress in the best possible conditions, I offer private lessons in the evening of 1h or 1h30:
Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays between 7 p.m. and 10 p.m.
Saturday mornings between 9:30 a.m. and 1 p.m. or afternoon between 2 p.m. and 7 p.m.

About Me

French of Italian origin and linguist, I am trilingual French - English - Italian.
I have been working for over 30 years in international companies where my working language is English.

My motto: "there are no bad students, there are only bad teachers". All teaching is based exclusively on pedagogy. It is at the center of my teaching, is the pledge of the success of my students.

PRIVATE COURSES IN FRENCH AND FRENCH CULTURE
Written and oral French courses School course: secondary classes, preparation for the French BAC Trainer in refresher courses and in French as a foreign language at all levels General knowledge courses Tools and pedagogy adapted to each student (IT)

Sebastian
German course for adults and teens! (All skill levels)
I am a German native speaker and general language enthusiast. Besides German, I speak English, Swedish, Spanish, French and Italian. Having learned 6 languages myself, I am 100% convinced that I will successfully teach you German(in a fun and relaxed manner)! Therefore, I offer a money-back guarantee: Should you not be satisfied with the results of a course with me, I will reimburse you! I have been teaching since 2018 and am currently one of the most-reviewed teachers on this platform. I encourage you to pause here and have a look at my reviews. I am confident that you too will have a similar view after having had some classes with me. On top of teaching here on Apprentus, I have taught offline group classes for the Volksuniversiteit The Hague (A Volksuniversiteit (litt. folk university) is an institute for non-formal adult education in the Netherlands). I also taught for and underwent training with Berlitz, which is one of, if not THE largest language school in the world, operating in over 70 countries and 500+ locations. I am 33 years old, have an honours degree from Leiden University, The Hague, am calm, encouraging, and, most importantly, PATIENT. My main objective in classes is to make the student feel relaxed and at ease. I encourage you to speak without fear of making mistakes. In fact, I celebrate making mistakes. "Why?", you may ask. Well, making mistakes means that you are leaving your comfort zone. You are trying something that you are not already skilled at. You don't choose the easy path! People who never make mistakes are stagnant. Therefore, making mistakes should be CELEBRATED instead of shunned! So, good on you for mispronouncing "Nachmittag (Afternoon)", or using the wrong grammar when making a sentence! Here, let me help you get it right this time! :) Do you already have German knowledge? No problem! Instead of building the basics, we can design classes that meet your personal needs and preferences. We can write essays together, you can hold presentations about topics of your interests or topics that I provide, we can discuss current events, hold debates, you can write news-paper article summaries, or we deep dive into advanced grammar. Whatever it is that you enjoy and need: We can do it together. All my classes combine speaking, listening & grammar exercises in interaction with me. Unless you're a very advanced student, we will work with learning materials created by some of the best publishers for language learning in Germany. These materials serve as a red thread for our course that introduces new words, grammar, and exercises in a good pace and interesting manner which keeps you engaged and motivated. Furthermore, I show you German food, music and places. On top of that, I introduce you to the best technological tools (homepages and applications) to boost your language learning and take it to the next level! Another important factor for me is having a personal connection. Unless you prefer to "stick to business", which is fine as well, we typically start our classes by talking about how the weekend or preceding weekdays have been. I don't see my students as a resource to be extracted, but as people for whom I develop a genuine interest. Over the course of time, we both know what is going on in our respective lives and update each other about small or big life events. Having taught many students for multiple years, I can gladly say that I have made real friends thanks to our classes, some of which I even have met in real life. I am extremely confident that you very soon will have the same success that I have had in learning languages! So what are you waiting for? Get in touch now to book an initial meeting in which we can get to know each other so that I can learn about you, your needs and wishes, which will allow us to design the optimal course for you. See you soon! Bis bald! Sebastian

I'm a TESOL/TEFL certified teacher who's been teaching English for almost four years! I have taught 1100+ hours for adult students, and 400+ hours for kids and teens. Language is best taught through practice. I prefer fun, engaging, and interactive lessons and activities. Either through listening to authentic audio files, telling and reading stories, or having open conversations based on the student's interests and likings. I can support kids either in school curricula, basic language instruction, and free speaking. Each course is individually tailored based on the student's needs, age, and proficiency level.
