MIDDELBAAR VAKKEN: GESCHIEDENIS, AARDRIJSKUNDE, ENGELS, FRANS, HUMANE RICHTING
Middelbaar zit vol met vakken die uiteindelijk mogelijks niet veel meerwaarde zal hebben in jou latere leven. Toch bieden deze vakken meer inzicht en kunnen ze je ondersteunen in je latere carrière keuzes en je eigen inzicht over de wereld vergroten. Deze lessen zijn bedoeld als ondersteuning bij het studeren van vakken uit middelbaar. Als oud ASO student, kan ik mogelijks 'tips and tricks' geven die kunnen helpen bij het slagen van deze vakken.

Italian ↔ English conversation with chatty Italian living in Belgium
Want to impress your partner with newly discovered romantic Italian compliments? Want to showcase your wine knowledge to your in-laws during a family dinner? Want to be able to order a caffellatte macchiato con latte di soia without having your waiter scoff at you while traveling around Italy? Then starting a conversation with me will be your answer! I will guide you through the amenities of the Italian language, coming from someone who grew up with it. I am a Bioprocess Engineer, currently employed in Gent at an industrial biotech company. I studied and lived (mostly) in Italy until I was 20 years old, then I moved to Copenhagen to continue my education. I am an Italian native speaker, and I use English in my daily personal and working life. Talking to someone is the best way you can practice new languages. When I was a teenager I moved to Canada for six months to learn English, and even if I struggled at the beginning, pushing myself to have crooked conversation with friends was the perfect way to start mastering the language. We can talk about current topics, family, hobbies and the like. If you have specific requirements or interests, we can indeed explore those. Let me know, a presto!
