Swedish course for adults and teens! (All skill levels)
I am a Swedish native speaker and general language enthusiast. Besides Swedish, I speak English, German, Spanish, French and Italian. Having learned 6 languages myself, I am 100% convinced that I will successfully teach you Swedish(in a fun and relaxed manner)! Therefore, I offer a money-back guarantee: Should you not be satisfied with the results of a course with me, I will reimburse you.
I have been teaching since 2018 and am currently one of the most-reviewed teachers on this platform. I encourage you to pause here and have a look at my reviews. I am confident that you too will have a similar view after having had some classes with me. On top of teaching here on Apprentus, I have taught offline group classes for the Volksuniversiteit The Hague (A Volksuniversiteit (litt. folk university) is an institute for non-formal adult education in the Netherlands). I also taught for and underwent training with Berlitz, which is one of, if not THE largest language school in the world, operating in over 70 countries and 500+ locations.
I am 33 years old, have an honours degree from Leiden University, The Hague, am calm, encouraging, and, most importantly, PATIENT. My main objective in classes is to make the student feel relaxed and at ease. I encourage you to speak without fear of making mistakes. In fact, I celebrate making mistakes. "Why?", you may ask. Well, making mistakes means that you are leaving your comfort zone. You are trying something that you are not already skilled at. You don't choose the easy path! People who never make mistakes are stagnant. Therefore, making mistakes should be CELEBRATED instead of shunned! So, good on you for mispronouncing "Nachmittag (Afternoon)", or using the wrong grammar when making a sentence! Here, let me help you get it right this time! :)
Do you already have Swedish knowledge? No problem! Instead of building the basics, we can design classes that meet your personal needs and preferences. We can write essays together, you can hold presentations about topics of your interests or topics that I provide, we can discuss current events, hold debates, you can write news-paper article summaries, or we deep dive into advanced grammar. Whatever it is that you enjoy and need: We can do it together.
All my classes combine speaking, listening & grammar exercises in interaction with me. Unless you're a very advanced student, we will work with learning materials created by some of the best publishers for language learning in Sweden. These materials serve as a red thread for our course that introduces new words, grammar, and exercises in a good pace and interesting manner which keeps you engaged and motivated. Furthermore, I show you swedish food, music and places. On top of that, I introduce you to the best technological tools (homepages and applications) to boost your language learning and take it to the next level!
Another important factor for me is having a personal connection. Unless you prefer to "stick to business", which is fine as well, we typically start our classes by talking about how the weekend or preceding weekdays have been. I don't see my students as a resource to be extracted, but as people for whom I develop a genuine interest. Over the course of time, we both know what is going on in our respective lives and update each other about small or big life events. Having taught many students for multiple years, I can gladly say that I have made real friends thanks to our classes, some of which I even have met in real life.
I am extremely confident that you very soon will have the same success that I have had in learning languages!
So what are you waiting for? Get in touch now to book an initial meeting in which we can get to know each other so that I can learn about you, your needs and wishes, which will allow us to design the optimal course for you.
See you soon!
Ses snart!

Fawzi
French teacher - Passing the DELF or DALF (French diploma) - Private preparation sessions | [IN LINE]
I am Fawzi, a French language teacher. I have been giving private lessons online since 2012.
I offer specific sessions to meet your needs and objectives to pass your DELF (Diploma in French Language Studies) or DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language), including the TCF (French Knowledge Test). I accompany many interested parties of different nationalities thanks to online courses since 2012; for me, helping enthusiasts to practice the French language is a very good experience because I understand that success is a key objective in the life of ambitious people.
I speak Arabic, French, Spanish, a little English and a little Turkish. I explain my lessons in French, Arabic or Spanish, depending on your choice. And at the end of each session, I give lessons with exercises to do as homework to examine your shortcomings and monitor your progress.
--------------------------------------
Here are some things to know about the DELF and DALF:
The DELF (Diploma of Studies in French Language) and the DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language) are two official and quality diplomas. They are harmonized on the levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. They include the following six levels, in ascending order: A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2. These two diplomas are suitable for all ages and all audiences.
In addition, the DELF B2, and increasingly the DALF C1, allow students to enter French, European or French-speaking universities, and certain Grandes Ecoles.
--------------------------------------
Will you have DELF or DALF exams to pass? Do you need to follow specific sessions with me to improve your level?
Don't hesitate to book your sessions so that we can start the preparation.
I am available !

Learning Swahili - Salutation example Hujambo -( Hello) Sijambo (Hello) - Beginner -intermediate - Advanced
Swahili is an essential language when working and visit African especially when working or doing studies. It offer access to the Swahili culture and other East Africa Culture.
Is there any point to learn Swahili as a language?
Yes! it is very important as far as African is concerned since it is the favorite suggested and endorsed by African Leaders to be the official language uniting African people and culture soon.
Swahili is a total language (its name is literally from the word for "coastal" in Arabic), and so it's best spoken in the coastal regions of both Kenya and Tanzania, where it's not only the lingua franca, but the mother tongue of the Swahili people themselves.
Swahili commonly known as "Kiswahili " has the potential to forge strong trading ties between the people of eastern, central and Southern Africa and to promote cultural cohesion.
If widely promoted in these regions, the language can single-handedly remove the artificial barriers and boundaries imposed by imperial powers.
