    About Me

    I have a digital piano and a great collection of books in English. By the way, I had worked some years in France too. Well travelled person in Europe and America. My daily schedule is quite busy one, weekly flexible, and I am interested in a student who needs the learning outcome and realistic practice.

    Some study materials (read audio files The Economist, unlimited access to the National Theatre Live (UK) or Netflix, picture books, language books, songbooks, sheets music and the digital piano with headphones and pedals, 2D and 3D, maths and logic study materials) are included into tuition and used only in a study time.

    Education

    Teacher training in Estonia and abroad. Studied English language teaching and the method of Montessori from London, UK. In addition, certified in CEU from Tartu, Tallinn, Melbourne, Townsville, Granada, Hague, Tokyo, Trois-Rivières, Leicester, Siena, and Florence.

    Experience / Qualifications

    Educator since 2007, the senior level teaching career in various educational settings. Among others, participated in the EU-funded intercultural projects with youth workers, and teachers. I've got 2 months paid holiday each summer, tutoring from Sept to May.
    I've been working with multi-age classrooms more than a decade now to work with children with communication disorders and several more experiences with other children in public and private settings to teach in Estonian, English, and French. I use American curriculum and study materials in English and studies are integrated across disciplines that include geography, biology, history, language, mathematics, science, music, and other forms of artistic expression. I also have a great collection of British picture books that I use quite often and 3D wooden study materials. In my after-school sessions, children engage in their learning by thinking, discussing, investigating, and creating.
    English is spoken at a useful level by some 1.75 billion people worldwide. Most of them can speak several more languages. The jobs of the future, however, will require workers with advanced literacy and numeracy skills. Digital literacy and intercultural communication are one of these skills you will learn in my lessons. General language sessions have 8 levels of learning (vocabulary and grammar). Academic learning is divided into three parts. 1) Spoken language such as diction, acting on stories or poems, public speaking, debates and discussions, etc. 2) Reading exercises such as the main idea, supporting details, the author's purpose, organisation and text structures, the audience, evaluating arguments, drawing conclusions, tone and mood, meaning of words and phrases, figurative language, graphic structures of information and elements of fiction, etc. 3) Grammar and sentence structure such as the parts of speech, constructing sentences, capitalization, common language errors, the essay, writing a thesis statement, structuring the essay, providing supportive evidence, writing well, etc.
    Entry level lessons teach about rhythm, melody, harmony, duo play, replay, music listening and ear training, music notation and sight-reading. Learning depends on your life experience and abilities. You can learn some days, some others may develop skills some years. Leaners can continue studies in a music school or studio. Musical literacy is the reading, writing, and playing of music, as well an understanding of cultural practice and historical and social contexts. Kopli is famous for bohemians and fine art. Young musicians can rent a music studio for free of charge at the youth centre.

    Online practice lessons for your children: simplify their studies!
    It is obvious that school life can be demanding. It's sometimes difficult to juggle daily responsibilities while ensuring your children succeed in French, English, history and geography.

Currently based in Ireland, I combine an international perspective with a passion for education. You can count on me to provide your children with high-quality lessons in a caring learning environment. Allow me to take over, answer their questions, and create an environment conducive to their growth. You no longer have to worry about problematic materials.

Let me accompany you on this path to academic success and well-being.

    Kevin
    Polyglot specialist with 9 years of experience. German in speed mode. Level A1 to C2. No school teaching.
    I offer you a German course that is not like the others. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches: If you travel back and forth by train every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options: 1) Memorise the timetable. 2) Realise that the train comes every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m. In school pedagogy, in textbooks and in normal lessons, the first approach is used - in the course I am offering you, it is the second approach because it is more economical and faster. My offer is aimed at both pupils and adults who want to learn the German language without time-consuming detours through the madness of fruitless school methods. Learning is easy, but unlearning things that have become bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, with my customised lessons you will greatly accelerate the learning process while having a positive attitude. I offer German lessons for individuals or groups (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive science and historical linguistics in particular. My modular programme can be adapted on a case-by-case basis. The converging point of these modules is your independence in spontaneous conversations in real life. What will not be covered in the course: learning lists of verbs; learning lists of nouns with articles; learning words with their translations; flashcards; doing school exercises; following the syllabus of a booklet; imposing the English grammar on the German language. What is particularly important to me: to motivate my student and to give him a learning rhythm; to encourage his creativity; to befriend him with the language; the letters and their sounds; to strengthen the memory by training the phonological loop; to teach blueprints instead of memorising sentences; to explain how the language works in order to make my student independent as quickly as possible; to eliminate common preconceptions, such as that 'der' would mean masculine and 'die' feminine, that the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, that verbs would be irregular, that declension would be random and therefore would have to be learnt with each verb...; to put practice at the centre and only deal with grammar where necessary. A first lesson will give you a sound idea of my pedagogy.

    Gamze
    Experienced English Teacher (B.S.Ed.) / Gifted Education Mentor (M.S.Ed.)
    Hi there! I am an English teacher with 10 years of experience. In addition to teaching at school, I give interactive and holistic English lessons to groups or individuals. My academic field is the education of gifted students. I also conduct out-of-school support activities with these students and provide counseling to parents. Before we start working together, I offer a free initial meeting to get to know you and understand your needs. I am based in Haarlem, the Netherlands but I also offer online classes all over the world. I believe that any kind of effective learning is an adventure that begins with a personal bond and ends with autonomy. Peter Drucker says, "Learning is a lifelong process of keeping abreast of change, and the most pressing task is to teach people how to learn." In this age, every paradigm is changing very fast, so the teacher must help students find out how they learn best. Instead of continuing to deliberately learn something for years, let's find this "know-how" for English and ourselves together!
