Great teacher with positive attitude.
Sumer is the the perfect tutor for our child. She made the lesson fun and interesting and had our shy child fully engaged and active in her learning!
Summer is a lovely teacher. She's helping my 11-year-old who has DCD with his English writing and spelling. Summer always comes prepared with interesting and engaging lesson plans. My son really enjoys her classes, and I'm seeing his confidence grow already.
Summer is one of the best teachers we have had. Her solid experience as a teacher shines in her lessons. She always comes with an infallible lesson plan directed to engage even the most distracted student. Through her different activities, she paces the lesson just right and makes it very lively. She puts a lot of thought into the tailored material that she delivers with great clarity. Summer is also very kind, flexilbe and supportive.

Mary
Experienced British primary school teacher available for tutoring: English, Reading, Phonics, Grammar
With 18 years of teaching experience in outstanding UK and international schools and a Master's degree in Primary teaching, I can offer tutoring in all primary subjects for children aged 3-12.

Elena
Offers help with: German, English, Sociology, History, Reading, Writing
As a student who graduated from the European School, I have gained a lot of knowledge in different languages. Having learnt Greek, German, English, French, and even a bit of Italian, I have become familiar with the ways and mechanisms of teaching a language. I have always been passionate about writing and believe a lot in the importance of writing abilities to help individuals mentally, and the same counts for speaking and reading. Language is a form of self-expression that is of utmost importance to life, and I believe everyone should have the opportunity to learn these skills. Additionally, as a political science student at the University of Amsterdam, I offer help with history and sociology lessons, having studied both these subjects with a lot of passion for many years. I am a very patient person and approach these lessons with excitement and a lot of joy, but most importantly, with passion. Seeing people grow in their skills is very important to me, especially seeing how happy they are with themselves.

Learn Italian with Leila - Language & Culture through the eyes of a local
Want to really connect with Italy—whether you’re planning a trip, or just love Italian movies, food, and books? I’m here to help you do just that! Learning Italian doesn't have to be just about grammar and vocab, it’s about immersing yourself in a new world and having fun along the way. My classes are all about getting you to speak and understand Italian in real-life situations. We will chat, watch movies, read books, and break down what we see and hear together. Whether you're a total beginner or already know a bit of Italian, our sessions will be tailored to your level, age, and interests. I’m happy to guide you through this journey—whether it’s practising how to order a gelato in perfect Italian or discussing your favourite Italian film. You’ll be speaking from day one, gaining confidence with every session. Learning a language is an adventure, and I’m excited to have you on board. Let’s make it fun and unforgettable!

Learn, Study and Have Fun with English for Beginners
A beginner English student is focused on learning essential vocabulary, such as family names, household objects, basic adjectives, and place names. Beginners are also becoming familiar with subject pronouns, frequently used verbs, and modal expressions. In other words, I'll highlight the Eight Part of Speech in English. They may study some grammar and syntax, but these lessons will mostly focus on basic concepts, such as asking questions, reading or constructing simple sentences.

Russian language classes from a native speaker: grammar + practice
Hey there! I am a native Russian speaker (though don't seem to be one :) ). I do NOT have experience in tutoring the Russian language, however, I've always given advice and lessons to my friends and siblings for their Russian classes — no secret Russian language can be no chill sometimes even for native speakers! I am very strong in Russian grammar and was representing my school at the Olympiads for the Russian language. I do NOT have a specific program or technique of teaching but am willing to share my knowledge and adapt to your preferences!
