29€Spanish for Foreigners / English / History / Art History

I am a Spanish teacher for foreigners with 6 years of experience in Secondary Education and private Spanish classes. I try to focus my classes with a wide range of activities and games that motivate students without overwhelming them, and with an attempt at cultural immersion that supports language learning. In my classes, I coordinate different resources, including technology (learning platforms through games, etc.). I also have experience preparing students for GCSE exams at levels A1-B2. I provide the same approach to my History/Art History classes.

Ekaterina - Amsterdam, Netherlands35€

35€Contemporary Art Lessons for Kids (Ages 4-12) by a Museum Educator

Trusted teacher: My name is Katia, and I am an artist and museum educator with a passion for working with children. I have over four years of experience in various roles, including babysitter, art teacher, and youth tour guide. For two years, I worked at the Moscow Museum of Modern Art, creating educational programs for children. Currently, I have some free time alongside my job and would love to offer art + theory lessons for kids. A bit more about the classes: The first thing to know is that this is not a traditional academic art program focused solely on painting and drawing—we won’t be sketching fruit bowls and vases (well, maybe occasionally!). Instead, we will explore various artistic media, from Impressionism to Land Art, incorporating hands-on activities, a bit of theory with artist examples, and possibly museum visits and/or outdoor walks. If you’re looking for an art teacher and would like to learn more, feel free to contact me. Lessons are available in English and Russian.

Gemma - Florence, Italy30€

30€Learn and improve to speak Italian with a real Florentine

Trusted teacher: Do you love Italian people, history, and food and you would like to speak the language? I am a CEDILS-certified Italian teacher born and raised in Florence, and I've also been a language student myself for a long time! If you want to be able to interact with Italians quickly, I can give you some tips about correct pronunciation, fundamental grammar, and vocabulary, but also Italian art and popular culture, which I think is fundamental to understanding the mentality and the country that you are going to interact with. Lessons will be tailored according to the student's needs, level, and mother language and focused on the conversation. I am also available to proofread your writings.
