Knowledge of the English language is important, as its becoming a universal language. Unfortunately, not everyone has the confidence to speak English. I would like to share my knowledge and use of the English language with others in a small session (private or small group). I believe that patience is of the utmost importance and am willing to help as best as possible. Some knowledge of the English language is necessary and is conversational only.

My name is Anna and I am a translator and interpreter, but I have been working as a language teacher not just for Spanish but also for German.

The lessons will be adapted to the student's objectives. We can train from conversation to exam preparation, always in a very dynamic way, and completely in Spanish from the first lesson.

As a teacher I believe it’s important to focus on the likes of students to help them improve and have a better development. As everything in life learning a language is simpler when you’re dealing with something you like. As part of my experience I taught in schools and students with different profiles and objectives in a language course.

Many people, over time, lose the ability to converse in a second language after being unable to practice for a long time. This also makes them embarassed to take that first step to talk to people who know the language.

By having a space where people can talk with no judgement and encouraging their participation, my lessons allow students to gain confidence and improve their skills in a comfortable environment, discussing topics that they find interesting.

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.

The English language is often used as a mother tongue and as a starting point when you are abroad. Also, many courses, especially at universities, are in English. Mastering and understanding this language is therefore of great importance.

In my tutoring sessions I will personally work with you to improve your English skills. There are also regular consultations and feedback so that I can best adapt my lesson to your needs.

Do you only have trouble with one or two specific skills? No problem. I am also happy to help with that.

We can also write papers together, check letters and find other ways to help you understand it as well as possible.
