Tom - Leiden$54
Trusted teacher: 💬 A customised English accent training course with a dedicated native-speaking coach will enhance your communication skills, boost your confidence, and ensure you can be easily understood in English conversations. I help clients identify and fix the issues that cause misunderstandings, helping you cultivate a more natural and relaxed speaking style. In our course, we'll work on building stronger connections between your mind and your speech muscles so that you can make adjustments that help you sound more native. We'll also compare the similarities and differences between your natural accent and your target English accent, so you can pinpoint the sounds that you want to work on. Select between accent reduction and British English accent training. What's the difference between Accent Reduction and British English training? 🌍 Accent Reduction identifies and targets the issues that cause misunderstandings in your own specific natural accent. This varies depending on your accent. For Dutch speakers, this usually includes: • the consonants th, p, t, k, s, sh, r, and v • the vowels in "strut" and "foot" •making intonation less flat and more meaningful • relearning the connections between sound and spelling – famously fiendish in English! Accent Reduction is perfect for people who may feel that their accent is part of their identity and may not wish to change it completely but still want to be more understandable to an international audience. 💂 British English Accent Training is a step-by-step course that teaches you to sound like a British native speaker. It teaches all of the sounds that makes British English sound unique. This includes: • shifting many vowels towards a more forward placement in the mouth •adopting British intonation patterns for questions, lists and speeches • and of course the distinct British "t" sound (Brits do love their tea, after all). British English Accent Training is ideal for people who pride themselves on sounding like native English speakers. WHAT MAKES MY LESSONS STAND OUT? Affordability, quality, and training. Materials are rarely professional or customised. As an independent teacher and trained linguist, I'm committed to providing my clients with a learning experience that's highly effective and tailored just for you. If you want a mix of Accent Reduction and British English, or if you have any special requests, I will adapt the course for your needs. WHO SIGNS UP FOR AN ENGLISH PRONUNCIATION COURSE? Professionals from a variety of sectors benefit from pronunciation training, especially those in sales and customer service. Clients include individuals from diverse backgrounds such as bankers, consultants, creatives, therapists, lecturers, performers, estate agents, hosts, broadcasters, corporate trainers, small business owners, international executives, and facilitators. ABOUT ME My name’s Tom and I’m an English teacher from Southeast England, based in the Hague, Netherlands. I teach English learners how to communicate more clearly. I have taught for various schools and agencies in the Netherlands and been frustrated by the lack of high-quality teaching materials and expertise among teachers of Accent Reduction and British English pronunciation. So in 2021 I set up my freelance teaching business to change the situation. I have over 10 years of teaching experience in various countries, and I have a master's degree in Linguistics from Leiden University, with a specialisation in English Linguistics, Phonetics and Speech Processing. I am trained in speech analysis software, a highly effective tool in helping learners not only hear but also visualise their mistakes. In my spare time, I study and learn languages. I can speak Mandarin, Finnish and a smattering of many others. Currently I am learning Japanese and Dutch. I have the technical, academic, and practical skills to help you improve your accent.

Trusted teacher: 우리 수업은 이렇게 진행될 거예요! I plan to integrate the techniques of drama education into teaching Korean! It's like teaching a baby their mother tongue! I will teach every lesson Korean through actions and acting out situations. Learning this way will make Korean feel much more familiar in your daily life compared to learning through textbooks and grammar. Just like teaching a native language to a child, our lessons will be fun and playful, and slow. So, let go of the idea that 'studying means sitting at a desk and memorizing words and grammar.' We will progress together and create our own materials. +모든 수업은 한국어로 진행됩니다. 하지만 절대로 걱정하지 마세요! 아주 천천히 그리고 이해할 수 있는 몸 동작으로 진행해서 여러분들 모두 이해할 수 있을거니까요! - For Basic level: We will start from the very basic level, focusing on Korean alphabet spelling (ᄀ,ᄂ,ᄃ,ᄅ, ᅡ,ᅣ,ᅥ,ᅧ ...) and pronunciation. We will emphasize speaking! - For Beginner level: we will use children's storybooks and short videos (the ones I actually watched and grew up with) as learning tools. Up to the beginner level, we will concentrate on listening and speaking rather than writing. We all learn by listening and speaking when we are babies. - For intermediate level: we will use short novels and movies. From intermediate level onwards, we will practice listening and writing down what we hear, along with expressing our thoughts in a diary. -For advanced level: Even at the advanced level, the format will be similar to the intermediate level, with a focus on 10 minutes of conversation. We will record these conversations and transcribe them, making improvements for more natural expressions!

Vivian - Leiden$51
Trusted teacher: Hi! My name is Vivian, 25 years old, and I graduated from the master's degree at the conservatory in The Hague. Teaching violin is my passion and I have been doing this for more than 8 years. Everyone, every level, every background and every age is welcome. I have students between 6 and 80 years old, from beginners to advanced and people who know a lot about music or people who are trying it for the first time. I play musical games, focus on musical and technical development, practice ensemble playing and teach the students who are ready some music theory. I like to look together with the student at fun goals or music that the student wants to play. All input and ideas are welcome! It is important to me to create an individual lesson plan together with the student that matches what a student wants to learn and how. I think it is important that we keep an eye on progress and that a student therefore practices at home. This way the lesson is most useful, because then I can give you good tips that will really help you improve! During the lesson I focus on the musical message, but also on the technical 'tools' you need to play the violin well. Would you like to discover music with me and learn how to play the violin better? The violin lessons take place at my home in Leiden. We agree on the length of the lesson together. Beginning students usually start with half an hour of lessons and if the teacher or student notices that this is too short for the current development, the lesson time will be extended to 45 minutes, 60 minutes or more in consultation. Advanced students are also welcome. Online class is also possible, but this is just a little less of quality than a live class. I recommend having lessons every week, then you will get better on your instrument the fastest. But if you want it different, that's fine too. If you want, you can also have lessons with several people at the same time. The rate will then remain the same. The disadvantage for you is that I have less individual attention for you and that you may not progress as fast as a result. If you cancel the class within 24 hours, I still have to charge the cost of your class for reserving the time for you. I think it would be great fun to work together on the violin, discover beautiful music and have fun with it!

Vuoi parlare l'italiano? Italiano con Rob per tutti (Amsterdam)
Roberto
Hi, my name is Hannah! I'm learning Italian, because I'll move to Italy soon to study chemistry. Roberto is the most enthusiastic teacher I have ever met. He explains the grammar and vocabulary very clearly and focusses a lot on conversations in Italian. If you want to learn Italian fast and good, you should definitely get Roberto as your teacher!
