I am Peruvian, and I have several years of experience giving formal Spanish lessons. I can provide you with all kinds of material to enhance the learning of the Spanish language. We can practice the abilities of reading, listening, speaking and writing: my classes are personalized for my students. This means that I try to focus on topics that are interesting to you. My goal is to challenge the student but also have fun at the same time!

Ps: I have a bachelor in Hispanic Literature; if you are interested, that could be a compelling way to learn Spanish!

(Class currently on pause / pauzeren for upgrading the learning materials)

I am a Vietnamese native (born and raised in Hanoi) who has lived in the UK for 2 years, and now in my 8th year living in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. I am currently working full-time at an international Dutch company and tutoring Vietnamese is my favorite hobby!

This class will introduce you to various aspects of the Vietnamese alphabet, grammar, and spelling. I will also provide speaking practice at the end of every class. This class is designed for those of you who are interested in the Vietnamese language, as well as Vietnamese culture.

New vocabulary for each topic will be discussed. My study background is in Mathematics and Statistics, thus with the combination of languages you can expect 'a bit' of reasoning logic behind all lessons I give (which I think gives some structure to the lessons as well)!

English has become the Lingua Franca of our times. It's a valuable skill to possess, beneficial for everyone. It comes handy in the ever-developing world that we live in and opens doors to many places, also in the mind. Additionally, bilingualism enhances the cognitive skills.

Whether you'd like to improve your speaking skills and break the language barrier or you wish to prepare better for an English exam, I come to an aid.

In 2023, I've obtained a Master degree in Linguistics at the University of Amsterdam. I've achieved the C1+ levels in English, on the CEFR scale. I have 2 years of experience living in London, where I acquired RP (received pronunciation) and 7 years of experience in the International Academia (Amsterdam). My linguistic background gives me the capacity to explain the sounds and various processes of the language, from a perspective many natives do not know. In teaching, I practice the holistic approach. It is my belief that language is for people of every age and education, but I'm aware that everyone deserves a personal approach. In the first session, we always do a needs analysis and become acquainted, to make sure we click as people and will enjoy working away at your personal language goals.

Over the years, my classes, have proven to raise the confidence levels of students. We practice knowledge in English, on 4 levels of proficiency: Speaking, Listening, Reading and Writing.

I will focus on your strengths and guide you to how to use those to your advantage in learning. We will elicit your potential. With a little help, I am sure you will achieve the goals you set for yourself.

Are you looking for a qualified native English teacher (British) with extensive teaching and business experience? If so, I would love to help you!

I have a very simple teaching philosophy. Every single lesson must be challenging, rewarding, and fun – as the best way to learn is with a smile on your face. I adapt our lessons together to your unique needs and goals, including:

• improving your accent and pronunciation;
• helping you avoid steenkool English and typical ‘Dunglish’ words;
• broadening your vocabulary; and
• perfecting your use of tenses.

Most important of all, I can help improve your confidence, which is the key to learning any language.

A speciality of mine is Business English, so I can also help with everything from preparing for an interview or speaking in meetings, to giving a presentation.

While my classes are 100% in English, I can also speak Dutch and Spanish. This gives me a real insight as to why students make certain mistakes, and how to best avoid them.

Merhaba! I am an enthusiastic teacher who has been teaching Turkish for foreigners and children whose native language is Turkish but need to improve it. Having experience with both teenagers and adults, I specialize in tutoring Turkish based on four skills: Listening, Reading, Speaking and Writing.

I plan my lessons regarding the student's needs and goals. In my lessons, I prefer using different teaching coursebooks and authentic resources (e.g. online articles, newspapers, magazines).

Since I have studied in different disciplines such as language teaching, literature, and communication sciences, I could promise various lesson contents in each lesson to keep you excited during your learning process.

If you would like to learn Turkish with me, please get in touch!

I hope to hear from you soon!

Depending on your request, the class can focus on the improvement of your oral or written competencies. If you want to learn grammar or master your letter writing or comprehension skills, we will work on that. In case you want to maintain the level of your understanding and oral abilities, we will improve that.

Dans le cas où vous souhaitez maintenir le niveau de compréhension et les capacités orales, nous améliorerons cela.

J'enseigne l'anglais depuis près de 25 ans maintenant. J'enseigne exclusivementpar webcam (par Teams).

Hola everyone!
I have always been passionate about arts, culture, people, and traveling, and through my communicative experiences interacting with different people in different languages around the world, I have understood the essential needs when it comes to language acquisition. That is why my method is a compilation of the traditional usage of books, texts, audios, and short films, combined with PowerPoint presentations full of images, interactive games, and recreation of real-life situations in which the students will naturally learn complex grammar topics while having fun. I also create a particular relationship with each student to detect the type of learner the student is and tailor the class according to his/her personality, needs, and expectations. The class can be taught in English or Dutch but I am always aiming to expose the student to Spanish as much as possible so he/she can experience faster progress.

I am a native Spanish speaker with a bachelor's degree in Social Communication from Pontificia Javeriana University in Bogota-Colombia, ELE Spanish Teacher certified by Lola Martínez Cabrera Senior Professor from “Molinos de Viento” in Amsterdam and hold a postgraduate degree as ELE Spanish teacher from Barcelona University and International House Institute. I have been giving private Spanish classes to adults for the last eight years. For the last 15 years, I have been dealing with Spanish, English, Dutch, and German on a daily basis.

I'm an extrovert, always full of energy, and above all, I bring a lot of humor into my teaching!

I firmly believe that everyone learns in their own way. That's why I don't follow a rigid method but instead adapt to the specificities of each student.

I evaluate their current level, identify their strengths, weaknesses, and any areas where they may be falling behind, and then tailor my lessons accordingly. My priority is to restore the student's confidence because when things are well explained, everything becomes within their reach!

I employ active teaching methods, striving to engage the student as much as possible, and help them discover what works best for them. This empowers them to continue their educational journey independently.

Furthermore, I provide specialized assistance when it comes to preparing for challenging exams or tackling difficult subjects. I'm here to support your child every step of the way!

My tuition rate includes comprehensive support, such as private lessons, the ability to ask questions outside of class time, assistance with question writing and correction, and much more.

I firmly believe that students learn best in a positive and joyful environment. By incorporating engaging methods, I foster a supportive classroom atmosphere where learning becomes fun!

It's crucial for students to feel happy and comfortable with me so they can develop the confidence to express themselves and share their ideas. Every student deserves to be challenged, regardless of their abilities. Together, we'll help them unlock their full potential!

I strongly believe that building confidence is the key to success. The more confident students are, the better their chances of achieving great things!

I'm eagerly looking forward to hearing from you! Feel free to reach out and let's embark on an incredible educational journey together.
