This lesson is for anyone who would like to learn to speak and / or write (better) English. There is no age for learning and in this multinational world English is the universal language of instruction.

All lessons are personalized according to the wishes of the student (do you want to learn to speak and writing is less important, or is it important for you that you can send professional emails but you need to speak English less often, etc.) and we take into account the time you can / want to spend on it.

Request more information on Apprentus and we will be happy to see how we can start the lessons.

Extra information

Please provide the following information in your first email: where will the lessons take place? On a scale of 1 - 10 (10 = excellent), how do you rate your English now? How many hours per week can you spend on it? How long can the course last?

It is not mandatory to include these answers, but this will give me a look at your situation and we can consult the agenda.

About Me

My name is Veerle and I have been a specialized translator in English and Dutch for over 13 years. In addition to this, I have been teaching students who need help with their English, Dutch or French for over 10 years and I have several clients that I am teaching English to. Sometimes they have no basis whatsoever and we start from scratch, sometimes these are professionals who want to upgrade their English or Dutch or need it for their work and international relations.

For students in secondary or higher studies, we specifically look at what they need, where the pain points are and how much time we have. Unfortunately, action is often not taken until just before the exams, or at the end of the deadline for a thesis or thesis, which means that the time span is very tight. We always do our best to explain everything in a thorough, yet calm way in a timely manner. The goal is for the student to be able to use it later on. I don't put band-aids on open wounds as a temporary fix; the student must gain confidence in what they have learned.

What do I expect from the student? Very little, outside of sincere commitment, that they ask me if something is not clear (this can be as often as necessary, I will always try to explain it in a different or clearer way) and that they let me know afterwards if they have passed. It is great to see how my students keep growing; both their confidence and their results.

Competitions may always be sent to Apprentus without obligation, together with a brief explanation of the problem and possible availability.

Because of Corona, lessons can also continue online, although I still prefer the personal approach - then a mouth mask is of course an ideal solution.

We have had lessons from Hans for a total of 3 years. During Hans lessons, you do not only learn what the theory is or how the assignment works, but also how to apply it yourself. He does this by looking at the material in his own unique way, which gives you a better view of the theory. As a result, we both went from a 6 on average to an 8. We would like to thank Hans again for all the help he has given us. Olaf & Lauren

Hans has been with us for two years to help the children with mathematics and English. With great results we finally said goodbye to each other, because the children could continue on their own two feet. Thank you very much Hans. (Hans is highly recommended).

Teacher in Eindhoven Posted on Jan 23

I am an enthusiastic French teacher and, in addition to experience in secondary school, I have years of experience in teaching French face-to-face or in mini groups. My goal is to give students that support so that they understand the material and get good grades again. I base this on the lesson and learning material they provide and supplement this with supporting exercises. I teach students from the age of 11.
For adults, I offer you French courses and lessons, for both business and private purposes, at your pace and as it suits you best in private lessons. Alone or in small groups of a maximum of 4 people with an experienced teacher of FLE, français langue étrangère, you benefit from a small-scale learning environment with a lot of personal attention, intensive supervision and in good alignment with your expectations.
All skills can be practiced, reading, writing, listening, speaking and interacting. I also pay attention to correct pronunciation, so that your listening skills also greatly improve
As aids there are images, videos, texts to listen and read, chansons. The lessons always include a topic from French current affairs or culture.

I am a first degree French teacher and have lived and worked in England for 11 years. I have a lot of experience teaching young people in secondary education as well as adults.

My goal is to help you on your way and to support you with good explanation, patience and humor. When you are in school you have your own book. We treat that subject matter during the tutoring. I also have a lot of extra practice material to practice grammar or texts, for example.

Do you want to take your acting talent to the next level or finally fulfill that long-cherished dream of acting?

At our acting classes you can work hard on yourself and share your passion with others who share the same ambition. Together we strengthen each other and dive into the world of true acting, with opportunities to even get started professionally.

Our training includes the renowned Meisner and Chubbuck techniques, considered the cornerstones of acting. With the Meisner technique, you learn to act from a deep understanding of impulses and observations, which allows you to fully immerse yourself in your characters. The Chubbuck Technique, on the other hand, provides a detailed framework for understanding character development and emotions, helping you take your acting to the next level.

Unlike most acting courses for adults, which are often located far outside Limburg, our course is accessible in your region. Just like Sandro, who commuted to Brussels for years to take lessons with actor and coach John Flanders, you too now have the chance to shine.

Sandro, with experience in various national and international productions, including Jesus Christ Superstar, The Spiral, Home, Family, Kidnapping Freddy Heineken and countless advertising shoots, now shares his expertise to train new generations of actors and prepare them for the world of film and television.

Hello my name is Ruben pleasant,

I teach magic (specifically card magic, other options are also possible), for beginners to advanced students, ages 13 and up.

- It is most advantageous if you take several lessons so that we can treat each subject separately (learning to shuffle cards, deal cards, deal cards falsely, double lift technique).
- Teaching material is always delivered digitally so that you can practice at all times.
- If you wish, a short review or test can be done before each lesson to filter out potential bad habits.
- If you wish, we can also work on a competition act if you would like to participate in the Belgian competition circuit.

Jamming is the term to share magic tricks and become a better magician. That's why I like it if I could share my expertise through this platform.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask,

Greetings and hopefully see you soon
Reuben

English is a minefield when it comes to speaking it. From meat to meet or your and you're, its a challenge from A to Z. However in my own personal experience I found that its true what they say: practise does make it perfect. I am a bilingual student looking to enlarge my teaching experience and sharing tips and tricks with those who are eager to improve (or begin) their relationship with the English language.

Hi! I am a 20 year old native English speaker from Australia. Currently I am undertaking a TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) certificate, therefore, I can offer constructed classes adapted to the students strengths and weakness, provide support and assistance in grasping complex English language concepts (ie. grammar, punctuation, spelling, writing), and provide feedback in work/assignments. I am here to help!:)

Dear language lovers,

WHAT I OFFER
I provide French and English lessons for all levels and domains,whether business, academic, social, or simply for the joy of learning a rich and fascinating language. I can help you develop your reading, writing, speaking, and listening skills in both French and English. From grammar and syntax to vocabulary enrichment, I use a personalized, pedagogical approach based on your individual needs and shared learning goals we define together.

MY EXPERIENCE
As a native French speaker, I know the beauty and poetry of the language inside and out, and I’m excited to share it with anyone curious to dive in. Since high school, I’ve offered private tutoring to students aged 10 to 17, helping them with everything from grammar worksheets and book reviews to philosophy essays and creative writing assignments.

As for English, I was raised in an international school environment where English was a core part of my education from childhood through high school. I earned my TOEFL certificate before beginning my current bachelor’s studies, which are entirely in English. I've also taught English with a focus on pronunciation, grammar, syntax, and practical communication skills.

TUTORING SET-UP
When tutoring, I place strong emphasis on tracking progress, often by assigning homework (if agreed upon) and creating clear, structured plans to help students stay on track. I’m always flexible and happy to adapt to each learner’s feedback and preferences to make lessons as enjoyable and engaging as possible.

I offer lessons online or in person—either at my place or yours. Thanks to my bilingual upbringing (with a German mother) and my French-German high school diploma (AbiBac), I can also provide instruction in German if needed.

Looking forward to sharing the joy of language learning with you!
