Over

My classes are enjoyable, engaging, and enriching, and I’m proud to consistently receive positive feedback from both students and parents.

I believe that learning English should be enjoyable—when students have fun, they feel motivated and eager to learn.

I have fourteen years of teaching experience, both online and abroad, including three years in Thailand and eight years in China. I’ve primarily taught Grades 6–12, and I currently teach online, working with learners from beginner to advanced levels. My lessons include general English as well as exam preparation for IELTS, GCSE, IB English, SATs, and more.

Over the years, I’ve learned that effective teaching requires a holistic approach. Students are more receptive when there is a healthy balance between a positive teacher–student relationship and clear, consistent discipline. Technique and approach matter: engaging lesson plans, relevant topics, and interactive activities help students enjoy the sessions, stay invested, and ultimately learn more from them.

¡Hola a todos!

My name is Patricia. I'm a certified native Spanish teacher. I've been teaching Spanish and English as foreign languages since 2004, and I've fallen in love with my job a little more every year :)

I studied Spanish Philology and Literature and learned how to become a teacher at Universidad Nacional de Salta, Argentina. I've also completed a specific ELE training certification from Universidad Europea Madrid, and I'm certified as DELE examiner by Instituto Cervantes.

I'm a committed, responsible, and professional individual who is always eager to learn new things and is continually engaged in ongoing training. My patience knows no limits, and I can find a thousand ways to explain something if necessary.

I can make a course specifically tailored for you, according to your knowledge, needs, interests, and requests. In more than 20 years of teaching, I've never given the same course twice. I can compile and produce custom-made study material for you. Since I'm passionate about Spanish, I've studied its different varieties around the world, so I can guarantee that with my classes, you'll be able to have a proper conversation in any Spanish-speaking country.

Over the years, I've worked with a wide variety of students, from young adults to adults, from complete beginners to proficient people who just wanted to practice speaking. I also help students prepare for the DELE exams, I've done so in the past with excellent results.

I'm in love with languages and communication, and teaching is my calling and my passion. With me, grammar will never be an issue; furthermore, I can promise you that you'll enjoy it and have fun! :-D

I'd be more than happy to discuss with you the best way for you to learn from scratch or improve your Spanish in no time.

Don't hesitate to send me a message :)

¡Hasta pronto!

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.

Marcel

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.

*All key aspects of the language will be addressed including cultural aspects/linguistic differences.

* Whether a quick learner or not; it will be fun and comprehensible. There is a goal to achieve, and it will be done.

* Whether learning a language to improve your career, for travel or even romantic reasons, help is at hand - just reach out.

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.

Arno

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.

My name is Ron, a dedicated Dutch tutor based in Suriname. Originally trained as an HVAC engineer with the intention of continuing my father’s legacy, I transitioned into teaching during the pandemic after discovering my passion for language education. This shift allowed me to embrace remote work while connecting with learners globally.

Outside of teaching, I take pride in my family life as a happily married professional who finds fulfillment in helping others achieve their language goals.
