About Me
Hello! 👋

My name is Thiviya, and I am a multilingual tutor passionate about helping learners achieve confidence and fluency in languages.

I grew up in Brussels and am a native speaker of both French and English. I also speak Dutch, German, and Tamil, which allows me to adapt easily to students from different linguistic backgrounds.

I studied at Université libre de Bruxelles (ULB) and Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB), and later continued working within two European institutions. This multicultural and academic experience has given me an excellent understanding of how people learn languages and how to adapt lessons to different needs.

✨ What I offer:
French & English lessons (all levels: beginner to advanced)
German, Dutch, and Tamil for beginners or conversational practice
Exam preparation, grammar support, conversation, and writing skills
Tailored lessons depending on your goals (school support, professional needs, or personal interest)

📍 I am based near the European Quarter in Brussels, and I am available for both online and in-person lessons. Since I am currently taking a break from full-time work, I have plenty of time and flexibility to adapt to your schedule.

My teaching style is friendly, patient, and interactive. I focus on building confidence while making lessons enjoyable and effective.

Let's work together to achieve your goals — feel free to send me a message to discuss your learning needs!

Hello to all of you!
I welcome you to my profile.
You would like to learn French and I would also like to teach you French.
Fortunately, French is my native language. I live in Brussels where I have taught many French courses to French speakers and also to non-French speakers in the framework of FLE (French as a Foreign Language), mostly face-to-face and also some distance learning. I want to expand the use of distance learning.
Hence my presence on this site.
My greatest wish is to help you make as much progress as possible in French.
To this end, I use a judicious combination of oral and written exchanges.
I use these conversations to introduce grammatical concepts and expand your vocabulary. All this in a fun and friendly atmosphere!
You will have to express yourself a lot in French, because my level of Dutch is average. In fact, I speak it at a "normal" pace, but with a more limited vocabulary and expressions than yours.
This may seem a little frustrating at first, but it is a real benefit to you as it forces you to express yourself in French as much as possible!
It's all in your favor!
Please contact me as soon as possible so that we can start a fruitful cooperation.

The courses are aimed at high school students, literature students, and adults learning French (FLE). Through courses tailored to their needs, learners will consolidate their French skills, either from a strictly linguistic or literary perspective.

As for the language, we will be able to work on different aspects: grammar, conjugation, syntax rules, written and oral expression.

More experienced learners, in rhetoric and at university, will be able to consolidate their skills in written expression and literary analysis.

It is about progressing realistically and at the learner's own pace, and developing methods that allow for long-term improvement.
