Lessen in engels, geschiedenis en/of andere academische en professionele onderwerpen zoals politiek, economie en duurzaamheid

As a native English speaker with knowledge of various foreign languages and global issues in history and the political economy, I can provide English lessons to various learner levels and age groups in many different subjects. I received my master's degree in International Relations at Leiden University and worked in international diplomacy at the UN. Previously, I worked at universities in research administration and media companies. I have a TEFL degree and plenty of experience managing academic events and teaching. Additionally, I can provide any educational help needed in studying disciplines in the humanities – such as politics, economics, history, research analysis, writing, ethics and learning languages. I am more than happy to develop personalized lessons, courses, and learning strategies that you are looking for!

English classes (Beginner to Advanced) - Conversation, Perfecting the language, Professional English
I am a native English and Italian speaker, and I have worked as a tutor and language teacher over the past ten years, while also studying History and Cultural Heritage. My experience includes teaching English language courses at different levels, preparing for language exams, conversation practice, as well as text translation and correction. My past customers range from teenage and adult students, to young and older professionals. As an instructor and teacher, I offer: • Lessons at all levels: Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced. • A multi-faceted approach, which covers: conversation practice, text comprehension, grammar, writing, academic and professional vocabulary. • Training in Professional/Business English. • Preparation for language tests: FCE and CAE Cambridge tests, IELTS, SATs. • Conversation practice (tailored to the needs of the student). • Tutoring high school students • Text translation and proofreading. Approach - I always encourage the student to develop a personal connection to the language by exploring personal interests in English. In my lessons, I favour a practical approach (real-life situations) and use texts, videos and conversation to elicit grammar rules and vocabulary. When necessary, the lesson is focused on grammar rules and the correct use of language. This positive approach, along with regular practice, will definitely improve your English and keep it active in the long term.

Master of the tenses: Understanding anglophonic time
Understanding how to use English Time Tenses properly has and continues to be a challenge for many business owners and professionals. What do they mean? What are their auxiliaries? How are they formulated? Which time words correspond to which time tense? Is there a difference in using these tenses in speech versus in writing? Learn how ALL of the English time tenses work in 3-compact sessions! If you're a small, medium or large business with a complete staff, I can come to you and help correct and bring awareness to how you're using the language, to enhance your business for meetings, travel and rendezvous of all sorts.

Improve Your English With An Individual English Training
In this course we will begin with an intake interview in which I assess your level and discuss your needs. Following this, I will develop a course to meet your aims. Everybody's wishes are different. You may want to develop your fluency, broaden your vocabulary, or work on your grammar. Or perhaps you would like to improve your pronunciation or writing skills. It could be a combination of these. As a highly qualified and vastly experienced teacher I have the necessary skills to be able to draw up a course and find the appropriate resources to aid your progress. During the course you will get the practice, feedback and guidance needed to improve your English level. At the end of each lesson I will give you homework so that you can continue your practice between sessions and at the beginning of the next lesson I will check your homework with you to make sure you are keeping on track! Ready when you are! 😊
