English and Spanish Language Acquisition Tutoring.

English and Spanish are among the top five most spoken languages in the world. In this course, you will learn to improve your oral and written skills to your language of choice through a personalized training program adapted to your needs and starting level.
As an English teacher with more than six years of experience, I am skilled in crafting engaging and instructional lesson plans for either group or individual sessions for students from a variety of ages and backgrounds. The contents and methodology of the lessons will conform to your aim and interest to learn the English or Spanish language, be it for career-wise purposes, for pleasure, or to obtain official qualifications such as IELTS, FCE, CAE, or CPE.
My goal as a docent, thus, is to make language acquisition an enriching and enjoyable process in order for the student to feel comfortable when communicating fluently in a foreign language.

Extra information

Please, bring your own notebook or laptop to class. Depending on your needs, you may bring the didactic material we will be using in the lesson (e.g., school textbook), or I can prepare the required notes and exercises that we will be using in class myself.

Felix
German/English classes for beginners/intermediates
Hey there! I am a native German speaker with a strong academic background in both German and English. I excelled in my German advanced course during high school and achieved a perfect score of 15/15 points in my final English exams. Afterward, I spent a year living in Australia, which further honed my English skills and gave me valuable insights into the language's practical use. In my interactive lessons, we will focus on actively speaking German and English, as I believe this is the most effective way to learn a language. My approach is dynamic and tailored to each student’s needs, ensuring that you not only understand the grammar and vocabulary but also gain the confidence to use the language in real-life situations. Let’s make learning fun and practical together!

I am very willing to help those interested in learning or improving their Italian, English, or Spanish, through targeted lessons that can fit every individual starting or continuing one of these two languages.

Michal
English writing and speaking support for all levels.
I am very good at problem solving. Therefore this class is about the individual student and giving them the support they need to improve and succeed. This will be less of a class and more of a personalised private tutor format whereby I will assist students with whatever current problems they face. It can range from teaching better essay writing skills or how to be a better public speaker. Depending on the needs of the student I will adjust my teaching accordingly. If the student needs assistance with a particular homework assignment I will help them through it. I aim to create a nurturing and comfortable environment for my students, I believe students have enough stress understanding all their current work and I do not want to pile on more. Therefore the class is not about giving homework and completing tasks as it is to create real and systemic improvement in the student and their confidence in the subject.

Reitze Sipke
Coaching and coaching of homework: all alpha subjects at every level.
I myself am from the History teacher in Windesheim, Zwolle and now I study History with Honors at the RUG. There I had a lot of fun studying and especially helping others to study. History and all alpha subjects are my strength and I can convey them to others with great pleasure. I also helped many years with learning disabilities through secondary schools, so I have become proficient in coaching and helping students plan. As far as my English is concerned ,; you can assume that it is flawless. Because I do not only study in English but have also lived and worked for several periods in English-speaking countries.

For anyone who would like to give their English skills a real boost during the summer holidays! Do you have some spare time during the holidays and you would like to work on your English skills? In this class you can work on your speaking skills and your vocabulary.

I am keeping the contents of this class a bit vague, as I want to construct lessons catered to your needs and level of proficiency. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me!
