I have been teaching Greek and Latin to students of secondary education successfully for the last twenty years. I have attained Bachelor Classical Greek and Latin Language and Literature, in National and Kapodistrian University of Athens. In addition, I have gained Master (Ma) in Pedagogical Psychology and Educational Act in Harokopio University of Athens.
I am really enthusiastic and eager to help young students and the institution to achieve their goals. Also, I am a very reliable, communicative and sociable person, willing to co operate with multicultural people. I have a very good knowledge of my subject and immense contact with students and teenagers. The studies in pedagogical psychology have offered me important opportunities to treat difficult cases and behaviors of students or parents. In addition, I can make decisions quickly and implement them in order to achieve the control of my students in the class. Furthermore, experience in education has helped me to develop very good relationships with the parents of my students and co-operate with them.

As a professional Arabic tutor, I am passionate about helping students learn and master the Arabic language. with native Arabic to both children and adults, I have developed a deep understanding of the language and its nuances.

My teaching style is personalized to meet the individual needs and goals of each student. I believe in creating a supportive and engaging learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes. Whether a student is a beginner or an advanced learner, I am able to tailor my lessons to their level and pace of learning.

In addition to teaching Arabic grammar and vocabulary, I also incorporate cultural elements into my lessons. I believe that learning about the culture and customs of Arabic-speaking countries is an essential part of language learning, as it helps students develop a deeper appreciation and understanding of the language.

I hold a degree in bachelor's and am fluent in Arabic, French, and English]. I am also familiar with a range of teaching methods and materials and am able to adapt my teaching approach to suit the needs of each individual student.

Overall, my goal as an Arabic tutor is to help students develop a strong foundation in the language, build their confidence, and achieve their language learning goals.

This is the ultimate executive function and study skills coaching program that utilizes Artificial Intelligence as a personalized assistant.

Designed specifically for students with Special Educational Needs (SEN), including those with challenges in organization, focus, and information processing. This course provides real, measurable tools for academic autonomy.

We move beyond basic homework help. We treat the AI as a co-teacher to manage specific learning barriers:

The AI study buddy: Students learn to use generative AI (e.g., ChatGPT) ethically as a powerful organizational assistant. They master using it to summarize dense notes, break down complex science paragraphs into simplified concepts, or structure large projects into manageable steps.

Executive function tool integration: We focus on integrating AI-enabled planning apps and task management systems to assist with time management, scheduling, and project sequencing—skills essential for students with ADHD or organizational difficulties.

Personalized remediation: We leverage generative AI's power to create instant, personalized learning aids—for example, quickly generating visual study guides, mind maps, or specific practice quizzes tailored to the student's current school curriculum and unique learning style.

The Goal: To build confidence, independence, and accountability, allowing the student to navigate their schoolwork more effectively and rely less on parental or teaching support.

Why this program is premium: your investment covers the specialized pedagogical planning required for this complex integration:

It requires extensive preparation to tailor AI prompts and tools to the student's specific SEN profile (e.g., Dyslexia, Dyscalculia, ADHD).

It includes the creation of detailed progress reports and recommended toolkits for parents, ensuring strategies are consistent at home and school.

I have a degree in primary education, so I primarily tutor children aged 6-12, with the possibility of tutoring children in the first year of secondary school (ESO). I can teach any subject, including English, in which I have a B2 level of proficiency. (Being an English teacher, I could tutor up to the high school level).
On the other hand, I could teach the classes either at my home in Santa Marta or at your home if you live in Salamanca city center or in the surrounding towns. My availability is flexible, and the classes are tailored to the characteristics and needs of each student to maximize their potential.

I Servizi (Cosa faremo insieme)
Propongo percorsi di mentoring e sessioni di decodifica focalizzati su:

Sono Leo e il mio lavoro è accompagnare chi si sente fuori posto in un mondo di risposte pre-confezionate. Attraverso il sistema RCS (Ricordati Chi Sei), aiuto individui determinati a compiere un atto di consapevolezza e autonomia: smantellare le gabbie cognitive e riconnettersi alla propria fonte creativa e vitale (l’Anima). Ho scelto di operare al di fuori dei circuiti social per garantire la massima profondità e integrità in ogni percorso che guido. Lavoro con chi è stanco della teoria e cerca sostanza. Le mie sessioni sono spazi di verità, senza compromessi. Metto a disposizione la mia esperienza e i miei strumenti per aiutarti a vedere ciò che la Matrix nasconde, affinché tu possa tornare a essere l'unico autore della tua vita.

My name is Yvette, I am a primary school teacher and educational psychologist and have more than 10 years of experience teaching Dutch abroad.
During an initial consultation, we'll discuss your needs. Why do you want to learn Dutch, and which aspects of the language should receive the most attention? Everyone has different goals and desires, and my lessons are tailored to them. I teach everyone, young and old, who wants to learn Dutch or improve their skills. I believe it's important to structure the lessons so that everyone gets the most out of each hour, while also allowing room for variety and improvisation. My experience as a teacher and educational psychologist has taught me how to quickly put people at ease. Moreover, I've personally experienced what it's like to learn a foreign language (German and English), so I can easily empathize.
