Course for those who want to perfect their English

Van 36.31 $ /h

Hello! This course is aimed for those who already have a grasp on English, but would like to perfect their reading and writing abilities. I also can teach students for admissions exams in the US (such as SAT, GRE, MCAT) and in the UK (UCAT), especially focusing on the verbal reasoning abilities and writing. I am originally from the US, English being my native language, and although a biology student myself, have taken many reading and writing classes throughout my life, scoring well on admissions exams, and am willing to share my knowledge with you. Let me know what help you need, and we can figure something out.

Over

Hello! I'm Alex, a 28 year-old PhD student in neuroscience/veterinary medicine currently in the US, though I did my master's in the Netherlands and spent around 5 years abroad. I have been teaching since high school, first piano for young children, then a teaching assistant in university and my PhD as well as a running coach for young girls, and recently have been tutoring students of all ages (mainly biology, neuroscience/psychology, thesis writing) via Apprentus and Varsity Tutors. I plan on being a veterinary clinician scientist eventually, where I will teach alongside my clinical work and research. As a PhD student, I am very comfortable offering lessons in academic writing, alongside academic topics. I know you want a trustworthy and knowledgeable teacher, so please reach out to me if you have any further questions, or want to know more about me. I'm looking forward to working together!

I am offering English lessons to students of all ages and levels as part of school, exam preparation, or just out of interest in vocabulary, grammar, and/or pronunciation. My experience has been mostly with children individually or in group lessons learning English as a second language of ages between 7 and 17. My aim is to help students establish a goal and help them along the path of reaching that goal, with clear progress milestones. I speak English at native level but I can also teach in Dutch depending on your needs. I have an English-spoken Bachelor's Degree in Politics and Law, having received an A on my International Human Rights Law thesis, a 1560/1600 on my SAT and 5/5 in AP English Language. I am also happy to do exam-specific tutoring.

The methodology chosen for my private lessons adapts to the specific needs of the student, from the youngest (learning to read) to the most experienced: preparation for an exam, a trip abroad, a reorientation professional, ... the courses can vary from a conversation table to a more academic structure emphasizing grammar, conjugation and vocabulary, or still be based on the theme of a particular professional sector.

I like to use different methods to teach French to students. It can be through songs, drama, role play or videos. I also very often use situations close to the student's experience, such as describing places they have been or talking about what they have experienced. At the same time, I teach the grammar rules to the student. I now live in regions where French has been spoken for over 30 years. Because I have learned French myself (and I am still learning other languages), I can easily put myself in a student's shoes. I can teach in French, Dutch, English, German and Russian.

SOME REVIEWS:
Chevaan:
Catherina is without a doubt THE best tutor we know. She is exceptionally committed and is always looking to inspire her students. She has consistently gone above and beyond the call of duty to help our son with his German. She provides excellent study material, engaging homework and follows up to ensure that her students have really grasped the subject matter.

Brian:
Catharina has been teaching our 11-year-old daughter for the past few months, and we are very impressed with her excellent progress in this short space of time.
Catharina has developed a very good rapport with our daughter and is patient and knowledgeable. Our daughter always looks forward to her next lesson and even hands in her homework on time! We would highly recommend Catharina to anyone who would like to learn a new language.

Afeisha:
Very professional, friendly and informative. I feel like Catharina will help me to reach where I need to. She doesn't just teach from the book, she teaches in a way that will allow you to blend in with ease. I am excited to learn more from her.

Egle:
Great tutor! Catharina adapts lessons to one's needs, gives very clear explanations and most importantly works on the pronunciation of the language. With every lesson she provides lesson material.

Is your child struggling with French at school? Does she/he have difficulties with grammar, spelling, or reading comprehension? I would be delighted to help. We will work together on her/his lessons, review the theory, and address his/her specific challenges through practice exercises.

Is the CEB or CE1D exam approaching, and you want your child to be as prepared as possible for success? I offer structured and effective support to help her/him prepare for the CEB or CE1D exams in French under optimal conditions. I will provide personalized preparation lessons tailored to your child's needs and level. We can review grammar and spelling together, practice reading comprehension exercises, develop writing skills, and, of course, practice with sample CEB or CE1D questions. I can also help her/him better understand the expectations and instructions, as well as provide guidance on exam methodology. My goal is also to boost her/his confidence, solidify the foundation, and support her/him not only with the theory but also with the personal aspects, allowing her/him to progress.

Lessons will be online, either via Google Meet or Teams. If you wish, we can also create a virtual classroom containing all the completed and upcoming exercises.

Feel free to contact me for more information!

To learn more about me: I'm an experienced teacher. I worked for several years with various non-profit organizations in Brussels (Schola ULB, Youth Club, CIFA, ABEF) with teenagers who were experiencing language difficulties at school. I am still involved in teaching, but I am currently working with private language schools, primarily with adults.

My name is Arno and I am currently getting my master's degree at Sciences Po Paris in European Affairs. I have always loved languages. I was raised in a trilingual environment through which I learned Dutch, English, and Armenian. Being raised in this environment has changed the way I look at languages. Besides these three, I also speak Norwegian, Spanish, and French at a B2 level (CEFR) as well as Arabic at B1 level (CEFR).

I have more than 5 years of professional experience in language tutoring and know what works and what does not. I have tutored high school and college students and have taught languages to students as young as 7 and as old as 63. My most rewarding language tutoring experience was teaching Dutch to Syrian refugees. Through them, I truly understood the importance of language and how it can connect people from across the world.

My personal approach to language learning as a combination of learning how to speak quickly and truly understanding grammar. I try to integrate conversations in the target language from the first class, while at the same time teaching grammar in an accessible way. I understand that students often find grammar daunting, but with the right approach, it truly does not have to be. I do not believe in a "first learn, then apply" approach. When I teach, I want students to start engaging with the language from day one.

Whether you have been studying for years, or you are starting from scratch, I am sure that we can make you feel more confident in your abilities in no time!

I am a Translator-Interpreter and have worked in marketing for an American Petroleum Company for 25 years.
My knowledge of languages was very crucial. After my husband's premature death I did replacements but after a while I started giving private language lessons. I spoke French until I was six.

I teach filmmaking classes with a focus on directing and storytelling for film, TV, and video. In these classes, I guide you through the entire process: from idea and concept to filming and editing your project. We go through every step.

We work with topics such as story structure, script development, scene analysis, and directing actors. You will learn how to convey emotion, tension, and meaning through directorial choices and storytelling.

In addition, I help you with the practical development of your project: how to turn an idea into a plan, how a shooting day works, and how to bring your footage together into a cohesive whole during editing. The entire production.

The lessons are tailored to your level and interests, so that you can work on your own project or skills step by step.

Thanks to my background as a film director, you gain insight into both the creative process and the realities of a film set.

The lessons are personal and practical, and suitable for both children and adults.

The lessons can be given in Dutch or English.
