About Me

Hi there!

I am a lawyer and a passionate language teacher (you can check my experience below)

Since I know what it’s like to learn a new language, I make my classes as engaging and stress-free as possible. I’m structured (but not boring, I promise!), committed to helping my students, and pretty good at figuring out what’s holding them back.

My goal? To make learning fun, personal, and effective!

What to Expect in Your First Class:
🔹 Let’s Talk! – We start with some conversation and exercises so I can see where you’re at (don’t worry, no judgment here!).

🔹 Your Interests = Your Lessons – Love movies, sports, or cooking? I’ll adapt our lessons to things you actually enjoy to make you feel comfortable and at ease.

🔹 A Game Plan 🎯 – I’ll set up a calendar so you can see what we’ll cover and track your progress like a pro!

Looking forward to helping you learn in a way that feels natural and fun! 😊

After obtaining my Master in Communication, I followed a training to become a teacher of French as a foreign language.
Through games, conversations and grammar exercises, I teach my students to speak and write French while trying to meet their expectations.

I am a qualified French teacher. I am experienced and comfortable with both kids and adults, all levels included.

I teach French as a foreign language (experience of tutoring for expats) and I also work with French-speaking students who need help at school or to improve their basics (years of teaching in the secondary education.)

Depending on what you want to achieve, we will work on improving your conversation skills, grammar, vocabulary or pronunciation. I work with up-to-date certified textbooks as well as comics, newspapers, movies ...
I always adapt my teaching strategies to specific needs.

If you're a complete beginner I can guarantee that after your first lesson you will be able to say a few words about yourself in French!

Feel free to contact me so we can figure out how I could help you :)

Great patience, pedagogy and easy contact. Experiences of animation and school support (private lessons) and in public and private education.

I offer this support to people of foreign origin who wish to learn or maintain their French as students and students with academic difficulties.

French classes for adults and children who are beginners or who wish to improve their skills.

The course is adaptable according to the level and mother tongue of each student. The subjects covered will also be determined in relation to the expectations and specific needs of each student. If he is already taking lessons, it is possible to tackle the subject to be improved together.

In general, each course consists of an oral part with special attention to pronunciation as well as a listening comprehension and written comprehension part.

Many exercises will be offered in order to master each point covered in the course.

Do not hesitate to contact me to arrange a first course or for more information.

Graduate teacher offers an individualized pedagogy, assistance with the preparation of questions or exams. My goal is to advance the student without overburdening him.

I have more than three years of experience as an English teacher in schools, English language academies, businesses and private lessons. In general I teach with maximum effort that the student expresses himself as much as possible in English so that he can have a better mastery of the language.

As a child of diplomates, my entire life has been colored with a variety of languages, places, cultures. In the process, having learned the importance of languages, I have made it my mission to help those who want to learn, regardless of their age.

My goal is to help everyone who is eager to learn! This includes guidance and mentorship in all areas, including spoken English and Croatian/Serbian/Montenegrin as well as grammar.
I believe that my teaching methods are very easy to grasp, not overwhelming, and most importantly, efficient!

Hello, I'm Adelina! I'm Romanian and I've recently graduated my master’s in violin performance at the Royal Conservatoire of Antwerp.
Apart from playing music, one of my other passions is teaching. As my profession requires, I’m calm, communicative and have quite a lot of patience. I’m fluent in Romanian and English, however I’m able to have basic conversations in Russian as well and I’m in the process of learning Dutch.
Do you want to start learning English? Or maybe you’ve studied English many years ago and you’d like to improve? Are you preparing yourself for a trip or even a new job in Romania?
Don't hesitate to contact me and I’ll make sure to help you reach your goals! :)

I offer my services to help your children achieve their academic goals, whether it is for the little ones who are discovering reading and writing, or for teenagers in the middle of preparing for exams. I also have experience with university students who needed a helping hand in certain subjects.
Patient and attentive, I adapt to the specific needs of each student, offering them personalized support to help them progress at their own pace and with confidence.
In terms of education, I followed a Preparatory Class for the Grandes Écoles in France (literature, philosophy, history, geography and languages), and obtained a bachelor's degree in English Language, Literature and Civilization. I then continued with a master's degree in British and American translation and civilization. I had the chance to work for two years at the Lycée Français Jean Monnet in Brussels, where I acquired solid experience with students of all ages and a good understanding of the expectations of the school system.
I would be happy to discuss this with you and see how I can contribute to its success.

My name is Guy, and I am a Brit/Belgian currently living near Mérode in Etterbeek, Brussels.
I can offer beginner/intermediate/advanced classes, conversation classes, and can help students pass their English language exams. I am happy to do it online, at your place, or at my place. It's never too soon or late to learn or improve your English skills which is why I'm available for all age ranges.
I will be available as of 25 February 2025 to give lessons to you or your children.
I have taught English before to Italian and Belgian children (aged 7-12) which has vastly improved their writing and oral skills at school. Some were complete beginners, some had trouble with pronunciation, and were always grateful for the help I gave them.
A little bit about myself: I am 31 years old, bilingual (English and French), speak Italian, some Dutch, and I'm currently studying Slovenian at the ULB in Brussels. I play a bit of saxophone too!

Hello! My name is Pedro. I hold a Master's degree in Linguistics and Literary Studies, specializing in English and Spanish. In this course, we can explore both standard Spanish language learning and delve into more in-depth theoretical linguistic concepts such as morphosyntax, phonology, semantics, and more. The content is entirely tailored to your needs: we can work with your own materials, or I can provide mine, to create a truly personalized learning path.
