Mina
English teacher with plenty of experience and patience
If you want to learn English language, I am here to help you. It is not difficult as it may look, but you have to be persistent if you want to reach your goal. Let me show you that English classes can be fun and studying can be interesting. I'm an English teacher for more than six years and I have plenty of experience. At the beginning of the course, studying material is particularly selected for each student depending on their level of knowledge. After the type of course is determined, focus is on the weak spots and improving whatever skill a student is lacking in. Speaking is always emphasized. In class students can suggest other materials, books etc and ask for lessons they want to study. Asking questions is always a good thing and cooperation between teacher and a student is crucial. If you agree, contact me and start your English course today! I'm looking forward to helping you learn English!

(Online) Mathematics Tutoring for High School Students
High School Math can be confusing for students. Often there is not enough time in school to repeat the content and practice enough, for the students to gain confidence and a routine in solving mathematical problems. With my help and guidance, any confusion will be cleared and we will practice problem solving until you are confident and understand the material. The lessons will be tailored to your needs and their structure depends highly on you: usually it is a mixture of repeating the content, solving exercises together, summarising important concepts and talking about exercises you tried yourself at home. The topics, content, pace and methods of learning will be adjusted to your needs, ensuring that you get the most out of my lessons. Besides the lessons, you will get "homework" to work on to strengthen your skills and independent working. Topics include, but are not limited to: -Linear Algebra -Calculus -Trigonometry -Geometry -Set Theory -Analysis If you have another topic in mind that you really need help with, just send me a message! Whether you need someone that explains the concepts to you or just someone to practice exercises with - I am sure I can help you. You have an exam soon and want to review the main topics? No problem! You have a very specific problem, question or topic that you need help with? I'm here to answer any questions! You need help with preparing for your A-levels/High School diploma? Don't fret, I will guide and prepare you! The most important part of my lessons is, however, to ensure a safe and comfortable environment - I have no issue with explaining the same concept over and over again until I am convinced that you have understood it. It is important to me that you feel comfortable in asking any questions - I want to show you, that Math is more than a subject and that it can be fun!

Cello Lessons at All Levels, Adapted to the Student's Needs
My teaching method is carefully tailored to the specific needs of each student, regardless of the subject we are working on (music theory, cello, music history, analysis, conducting, etc.). The pace of learning is always set by the student, ensuring that each lesson aligns realistically with their goals and interests. Whether you're looking for a more flexible, amateur approach — open to personal interests — or a more structured plan aimed at exams, auditions, or academic improvement, I design a personalized learning path for each case. My approach is rooted in a highly practical vision of learning, inspired by the educational model in which I was trained during my master’s degrees in Conducting (Antwerp) and Historical Cello (Brussels). I view teaching as a dynamic process, where deep understanding takes precedence over rote memorization.

Learn English from a fluent speaker at any level—beginner, intermediate, or advanced. Immerse yourself in the beauty of the English language
Hello, my name is William. I understand the challenges associated with learning a foreign language. I am a young professional who studied foreign languages at university, specializing in English-Japanese Language, Literature, and Civilization. Having had the opportunity to travel, I am aware of the difficulties that mastering a foreign language can present and the obstacles to overcome. That's why I would like to offer you my help! Originally from Bordeaux, in western France, I studied in Toulouse, lived 5 years in Australia and currently reside in Bangkok, Thailand. Over the past few years I had the opportunity to teach English to adults of various levels, including Spanish speakers, French speakers, and many others. My goal is to help you find enjoyment in learning English and to achieve your objectives. The lessons will be fully tailored to your needs and interests. I will also be dedicated to introducing you to English culture through our lessons, discussing current topics and significant events of the year. Because to truly learn a language, it is essential to understand the culture of the country that speaks it. My lessons aim to develop the five essential language skills: speaking, writing, listening, reading, and grammar. Of course, if you prefer to focus on a specific aspect, that is entirely possible. We can use your own materials or work with the resources I have available. Depending on your needs, I can also provide you with exercises to continue progressing outside of our lessons. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. I would be delighted to discuss your expectations, goals, and my teaching method with you. I look forward to accompanying you on your journey to master English. See you soon!

Primary & Middle School Mathematics Individual French System & Brevet Preparation
I love math because it's a subject that, while intimidating to some, is also incredibly logical and rewarding. Understanding math is like solving puzzles—every problem has a solution, and every step is a small challenge to overcome. This mathematics course is designed to support primary and secondary school students (up to grade 9) in the French system. It covers all the essential concepts of the curriculum: numeration, calculation, geometry, problem solving, statistics and probability, algebra, and preparation for the Brevet (Brevet). The goal is to strengthen the foundations, clarify gray areas, and give the student confidence and autonomy. Each session is personalized according to the student's level, pace, and needs. Fun methods are used for younger students, while discipline and strategy are used for older students.
