Maritime and general English for your work on board or life on land 🌎

From 23.62 $ /h

Hello! 👋

My classes are designed for both seafarers working on board ships or in VTS centers and anyone living on land. With me, you'll learn the maritime English you need to work on ships, in ports, and in VTS centers, as well as the general English that will allow you to communicate fluently in any situation in your daily life. I specialize, above all, in helping my students gain confidence in speaking and ensuring their English can accompany them wherever they go.

The goal will always be for you to learn real, useful English, both to pass certification exams and to use it in your life and your future. Are you ready to get on board and learn real English?

Extra information

I will give you my own notes with all the grammar for each level.
All nautical vocabulary made up of flashcards with audiovisual material.
Classes can cover conversation, grammar (A1-B2), exam preparation, and overcoming the fear of speaking.

About Me

My name is Pedro, I'm from Tenerife, and I worked as a bridge officer on merchant ships for several years. Now I'm an English teacher. I've traveled the world and worked with crews from many countries. Ever since I started sailing, I've always felt that English allowed me to carry my ideas and values with me wherever I went, regardless of the place or the crew. Now I want to teach it so you can experience what I've felt these past few years.

I currently work primarily with online students. I'm a very transparent and approachable person, and I try to make everyone who comes to my classes feel comfortable. I don't consider myself strict or grumpy, but I am demanding; that is, I'll push you to your limits so you can bring out your full potential. Finally, I hope you enjoy your private lessons and have a lot of laughs 🙂

I am a native American English speaking instructor, editor, journalist, and legal/policy expert from Florida specializing in instruction, interview and exam prep, consulting and text correction for a wide range of professionals & students across Belgium including in the legal, academic, policy, and other fields.

My past & present clients have included: professionals and politicians from all four major EU institutions, the Belgian government, the UNHCR, and various NGOs, alongside diplomats, doctors, journalists, and engineers, as well as a variety of other professions in addition to traditional students..I have had over 50+ repeat students on Apprentus (which recently changed their algorithm to only display the last six months).

Approaching from a true native's perspective, I instruct and assist with both educational and business English in a multi-faceted nature covering a wide range of areas including comprehension, conversation, grammar, and situational skills, in addition to working on general language skills and accent training. As well, I can provide extensive help and training with the EPSO, IELTS, and TOEFL exams.

I have also written, edited or proofread a variety of academic papers, theses, applications, CVs, and other documents for numerous satisfied academic and professional clients.

I have spent my entire childhood and adult life in the United States before completing a master's degree in Political Science and European Politics at KU Leuven. Additionally, I also possess Bachelor's degrees in Political Science and History. I have an extensive knowledge and experience of English grammar and literature, as well as current and past working experience in journalism (Anti-Competition Law and European Policy at the Policy and Regulatory Report) and both European and American politics.

I offer you a new learning experience.

The focus is on practical application and theory is only introduced where intuition reaches its limits.

Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, my tailor-made lessons will accelerate your language acquisition in a positive learning environment.

You can book a complete course with regular sessions or individual lessons to overcome a specific problem, such as pronunciation or a particular point in grammar.

Learning a foreign language is not a linear process that consists of memorising a list of words, and speaking a foreign language is not an oral translation exercise.

There are two types of approaches to acquiring knowledge:

When asked what year follows 1999, you can immediately answer 2000 without having to think for a long time and, above all, without having memorised each number individually, starting with 1, 2, 3 ... You know that numbers are formed according to a certain pattern. With only ten digits, you can form an infinite number of numbers and always know which number comes next.

When it comes to the alphabet, words and sentences, it's more or less the same, but school pedagogy, school textbooks and regular lessons still follow the rote learning approach. In the lessons I propose, you will learn to use patterns because this is more efficient and faster.

Learning is easy, but unlearning bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible.

My offer is aimed at both young people and adults who want to learn German or improve their knowledge without wasting time on nonsensical school methods.

I offer individual or group lessons for German. The methods are based on cognitive science and, in particular, comparative linguistics. My flexible programme can be tailored to your individual needs. The programme focuses on your independence in spontaneous conversations in real life.

What is particularly important to me:

motivating my students and help them establish a learning rhythm;
encouraging their creativity;
helping them become more familiar with the language;
teaching them the letters and their sounds;
strengthening their memory by training their phonological loop;
teaching sentence building plans instead of memorising sentences;
explaining how language works so that my students can become independent as quickly as possible.

I look forward to meeting you.

The objective is that: the learner masters the English language (🎧listening-comprehension,🎤 conversation, 📚 reading, grammar-pronunciation, writing...). It helps him to have language skills like native speakers. 🥇

At the same time, the learner will be 🚴‍♀️dynamic and well supervised by professional tutors who listen.
The atmosphere is distinguished: 🔥learning, interaction, no routine, no stress.

The learning tools used; videos, audios, texts, articles, images, games, stories...

We are happy to help both adults and pupils/students. If you want to learn the English language (reading, grammar, oral conversation, written production,...) or you have homework to do, or competitions/tests to take, 🏆 contact us :)

Hello everyone!
I'm Giorgia and I come from Torino, Italy.
I offer my native knowledge of Italian to any of you, who wants to discover this beautiful language.

I teach for all levels, from very beginners to advanced speakers, passing through amateurs or simply curious of any age. I can also help with university exams and school works/assignments.
Being a pianist and a piano teacher, I already have lots of experience with teaching and pedagogical approach with the whole range of ages.

The lesson is intended to meet the student needs: the focus can be on the grammar, conversation or literature. In case of a middle-level speaker, the lesson will cover all four language's abilities: listening, speaking, writing and reading. My suggestion of a well planned lesson is, for any level, to divide it into two parts: grammar first and then conversation (covering all the abilities mentioned above).

Thank you for your attention and looking forward to meeting you !!

- Review of previous concepts: 10-15 minutes to review the points covered during the last lesson.
- Lesson of the day: 30-45 minutes to introduce and explain a new concept.
- Practical exercises: 20-30 minutes to apply what has been learned, offering exercises adapted to the student's level.

You've mastered your craft. It's time your English reflected that.
As a professional, you have the expertise, the vision, and the ambition.

A lack of fluency in English is the glass ceiling for ambitious careers. But the solution isn't to relearn school grammar from scratch. What you need is a strategic advantage.

The Bilingual Edge program was designed exclusively for French learners who no longer have time to waste on generic methods. Here, we don't aim for mere linguistic survival, but for excellence linked to practice.

By the end of this course, you will be able to:
>Take the lead in international meetings and negotiations, without hesitation.
>Articulate complex ideas and defend your projects with the same force as in French.
>Eliminate typically French turns of phrase ("franglais") which weaken your message.
>Build an international network and establish your credibility with English-speaking clients, partners or managers.

Don't let the language barrier limit your impact any longer. Turn your English into your greatest professional asset and give your career the global reach it deserves.

The French language is an expressive art. It requires knowledge to master, but some people lack this knowledge. For me, perfecting the language is a duty. That's why I dedicated myself to Apprentus.
