Léa
French and/or English classes for all levels gave by a French native
Hi! I'm Léa and I'm a French Erasmus exchange student at the University of Copenhagen this year. I'm in my third year of studies at Sciences Po Toulouse and I'd like to give French and/or English classes for all levels (A1 to C1) a few hours per week. As a French native speaker I would like to give classes to people who wish to learn French or improve their skills in that language. Furthermore, I've a C1 level in English (TOEFL iBT : 100 points in December 2019 ; CEFR level C2) and practise this language since about 10 years. Therefore I can help people from any level to improve their English skills. Moreover, I organize myself and propose contents according to the student's expectations and objectives. I am a very organized and serious person regarding work, and I know how to adapt my course contents according to the student's level. I, of course, stay available anytime for any questions you may have.

TOEFL test preparation, Improve your English skills
TOEFL is requested and recognised by numerous educational institutions and other organisations around the world. It is not necessarily a hard test, but it can be tricky and requires practice. With a month of exercises (around 1/2 hours a day), I obtained 119/120. With my class, you will learn how to prepare for the TOEFL in an effective and fun way, in order to be confident and obtain the best possible score during exam day!

Gerard
English Pronunciation Classes, Exam Preparation and Proofreading
This class is for students who want to refine their English pronunciation, either for examination preparation or for job interviews. My goal is to give students the confidence to speak English fluently and accurately. I am an experienced teacher and linguist, and I encourage students to develop their speaking skills for academic, social and career advancement. Online classes are structured, with regular homework. Pronunciation classes are recorded, so that students can practise at home, and I give them regular progress reports, so that they can measure their improvement. This is my special area, but I am also an experienced exam coach and academic proofreader (MA and PhD theses).

Giada
English, Italian, Math and Science Tutoring in CPH
I am an experienced private tutor in Math, English and Science subjects, and native Italian speaker with a PhD in Engineering from DTU. I have a long-term passion for teaching students from elementary school to early university levels, focusing on continuous progress and providing customized lessons. I can offer both regular tuition during the academic year and exam preparation. Before moving to Denmark 6 years ago, I have been providing both individual and group private tutoring to students of all ages for many years, especially in Math but also Physics, English and Latin. I have university teaching and private tutoring experience in Denmark as well. I can offer my classes in English and Italian, and I speak Danish fairly well, as a help for the little ones.

Aimée Victoria
The Fundamentals of English Language and Literature
I'm Aimee and I am a student at Københavns Universitet studying English Literature and Scandinavian Studies. Prior to moving to Copenhagen I was an English tutor for four years, teaching students both in and out of school. I typically tutor students from folkeskole to Gymnasium level and have taught those with additional needs such as dyslexia and autism and respect that some children need a little extra help with certain subjects. I recognise that different students learn in different ways and so I am able to tailor my sessions to their learning style. I am very successful with my tutoring and have helped pupils raise their grades from below a pass to top grades. I am enthusiastic and driven which I feel is very important especially as, from experience, when someone struggles academically they tend to distance themselves from that certain subject. By having a positive and passionate tutor alongside their revision, I've found that students tend to warm to the subject after only a few weeks even if they still feel they struggle. This positive mindset really helps to drive them to reach their full potential and achieve the grade they deserve. I am very excited to begin tutoring and I hope to hear from you soon.

Learn Czech with native speaker and impress with your CV
Have you got a feeling that your CV is missing something outstanding? Do you want to meet Czech people, travel around or just understand what is on the bottle of your favourite beer? There is nothing like studying the language with native speaker. I have wide experiances with tutoring and teaching. Back in Czech I taught English and help my friends with Spanish - therefore running Czech classes is not a challenge for me. I will put challenges on you! Ses senere! :)
