French (literature, grammar and syntax)

I specialize in tutoring English and French as they are both my native languages. I have extensively studied French and English literature for more than 10 years and would wish to convey what I've learnt to other students. My goal is to keep students at a high level with their foreign language courses and to maximize their interest for both of these beautiful languages. I assign homework after every class in order to keep the student captivated but mainly to make him/her improve.

This class is for english speaking students that wish to enhance their performance in mathematics (mainly for high school). Calculus, Algebra, Functions, Probabilities will be the main topics covered. Regarding the study progress, exercises will be at first solved with me and progressively I will give the student autonomy. I believe that practice makes perfect (after learning the theory), therefore the goal is cover as many exercises as possible during class.

English Tutoring with Holistic Approach for All Levels
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. I'm a 3-year Linguistic student, 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 3 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. That's why I offer the first meeting unpaid, so we can get acquainted and discuss the expectations of both sides. In classes, I will try to raise your confidence and knowledge in English, on 4 levels of proficiency: Speaking, Listening, Reading and Writing. I will focus on your strengths and teach you how to use those to your advantage in learning. We will elicit your potential and together achieve the goals you set for yourself.

English classes (Beginner to Advanced) - Conversation, Perfecting the language, Professional English
I am a native English and Italian speaker, and I have worked as a tutor and language teacher over the past ten years, while also studying History and Cultural Heritage. My experience includes teaching English language courses at different levels, preparing for language exams, conversation practice, as well as text translation and correction. My past customers range from teenage and adult students, to young and older professionals. As an instructor and teacher, I offer: • Lessons at all levels: Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced. • A multi-faceted approach, which covers: conversation practice, text comprehension, grammar, writing, academic and professional vocabulary. • Training in Professional/Business English. • Preparation for language tests: FCE and CAE Cambridge tests, IELTS, SATs. • Conversation practice (tailored to the needs of the student). • Tutoring high school students • Text translation and proofreading. Approach - I always encourage the student to develop a personal connection to the language by exploring personal interests in English. In my lessons, I favour a practical approach (real-life situations) and use texts, videos and conversation to elicit grammar rules and vocabulary. When necessary, the lesson is focused on grammar rules and the correct use of language. This positive approach, along with regular practice, will definitely improve your English and keep it active in the long term.

French classes for children and adults, conversational or structured
I'm offering French or English classes for children and adults where they would learn through games and conversations, according to their age and language level. I have a lot of experience teaching foreign languages to children, as I have been a teacher assistant and an international au pair before. I have been giving private classes regularly for the past 6 years. I can also help out with homework. I have helped Erasmus and exchange students, as well as parents and expats that have moved to the Netherlands. For adults, I can do conversational French or English lessons where the subjects vary depending on the person's interests and language level as well. I can also help choose and work from a book, if the person wishes a more structured learning environment.

Learn French with a native speaker - adapted to all levels
Hello, I am a French graphic designer giving flexible French lessons to all levels and all goals!

I already have previous experience in teaching French and would be pleased again to share my culture and language. I can give adapted lessons from complete beginners to advanced ones! According to the student's wishes, the lessons can be focused on the preferred aspects (Conversation, vocabulary, grammar, writing, formal writing, etc.)

Fatima
French classes for school/unviversity students and adults. Skills development for individual needs.
I am currently pursuing a Master's degree in Particle Physics at the University of Amsterdam. For over 8 years, I have been offering private tutoring in Mathematics and French. I firmly believe that mastering mathematical logic and a foreign language opens up numerous opportunities for individuals who are willing to invest the effort. One aspect that I particularly enjoy is the challenge of adapting my teaching methodology to suit the specific needs of each student. Over the years, I have developed a strong rapport with my regular students whom I have been assisting for an extended period of time, and I am eager to expand my circle of students. French: 1- Learning in context. 2- Balancing/combining formal and informal/casual use of the language. 3- Activating passive knowledge and deepening language proficiency by learning how to express emotions, employing (idiomatic) expressions, and grasping language-specific humor.

French Beginners - An Introduction (A1/A2) To The Secrets of French
French can be a difficult language to master at the beginning, especially for those who need to have a more interactive environment to garner its secrets. Given my advanced level in the field (B2), as well as experiencing first hand the aforementioned needs, I am aiming to help those who are just beginning to learn French a fertile first step in learning the language. My method will primarily focus on what is best tailored for the student, which usually begins with a short conversation on the matter. I will bring printed visual material for a proper connection between the apprentice and the language, with proper alternations between vocabulary and grammar (unless the learner wants to focus on one specific area). Homework is advised, but is also dependent on the availability of the learner. The class is taught in English.
