English, French and Dutch for children, teenagers and adults.

From 30.7 $ /h

I offer tailored courses, in person or remotely, according to the needs of each student. For academic support, I adapt to the program followed by the child or adolescent, by deepening the concepts already covered, by re-explaining difficult points or by dissecting problematic themes.

For adults, I mainly teach the basics in Dutch, but I can adapt my lessons to different objectives. For example: learning the vocabulary for a new position, preparing for an exam (Selor, language certification), refreshing your knowledge before an interview, or improving your ability to communicate effectively in a professional or personal context. My approach is always flexible, student-centered, and aims to strengthen both understanding and self-confidence.

About Me

I am a native French speaker and have completed my entire schooling in Dutch and pursued further studies to become a French and English teacher.

I offer tailored lessons, either in person or online, depending on each student’s needs. For school support, I adapt to the school programme followed by the student, reinforcing what has already been covered, re-explaining difficult points, or breaking down topics that are causing difficulties.

For adults, in Dutch, I mainly teach the basics, but I can adapt my lessons to different goals. For example: vocabulary for a new job, preparing for an exam (such as Selor or any other language certification), refreshing knowledge for an interview, or improving fluency to communicate effectively in a professional or personal context.
My approach is always flexible, learner-focused, and aims to strengthen both understanding and self-confidence.

Learn and improve the French language through an interactive learning method. Learn to think, speak and write in a clear and structured way. I also offer courses in philosophy and human sciences, which aim to make major currents of thought accessible to young people and to prepare them for assessments in the French language (writing, dissertation, etc.).

I can offer conversation classes at very different levels, from informal discussions with idiomatic expressions to business negotiation dialogues.

As for the pronunciation of French, it is a real challenge because written French is often very different from its articulation.

The verbo-tonal method that I use, and which is often used by speech therapists, is particularly suitable for correcting French pronunciation for those of you who are not native French speakers, but also for native French speakers who wish to get rid of an accent.

We will work on the sounds of the language integrated into the sentence, the rhythm, the intonation and considered as a living and evolving system.

This method is very effective. You will see your progress very quickly and your self-confidence will allow you to overcome any reluctance you may have had before to express yourself in public. For others, having a more neutral pronunciation in French can be a significant asset professionally.

Bonjour!

My name is Anastasia, I am a 24 years old French native and I am here to help you improve your French skills. I have been teaching students of various levels from all around the world for over 5 years. I have helped students prepare for French exams like the DELF, as well as those who are planning to move to a French-speaking country and need real-life language skills.

I understand the challenges of learning a language, having learned two languages myself: English and Portuguese, and plan to learn more. I have faced difficulties, hit walls, and overcome them, and I believe that my experience as a language learner makes me a well-rounded teacher. However, I do not claim to know everything about teaching, as I am constantly learning.

I tailor my teaching method to best suit the needs of my students. I use interactive resources such as images, videos, and texts to help my students learn effectively.

For beginners, I recommend trying out the Pimsleur method, which is a 30-minute audio lesson based on gradual interval recall. This method reviews learned vocabulary at increasingly longer intervals and has been used by the CIA. If you are interested, we can discuss how to use this method together.

I offer French lessons remotely through Skype, Zoom, and Microsoft Teams or at the students place. When the lesson is online, I use a platform that allows us to see and modify documents, images, and videos in real-time, which is very useful.

I would be happy to help you on your French learning journey.

You propose a private course in the Netherlands (conversation and grammar) at the same level as the first level: the débutant at confirmation, for a secondary and superior level of knowledge, and for the whole person to be part of the language.

The method of articulating the axes principally, according to the principle:

1. Cours théoriques : apprendre ou parfaire ses connaissances de la langue à l'aide d'exercices de grammaire (conjugaison, construction de phrases), enrichir son vocabulaire.

2. Cours de conversation : entrainer à pratiquer la langue à partir de textes qui traitent de l'actualité ou de jeux de role.

You choose the appropriate adapter, the rhythm and the specific characteristics of the environment, to create a convivial atmosphere and the apprentissage.

A propos de moi :

Dutchophone de naissance, j'ai grandi aux Pays-Bas avant de déménager en Belgique où je vis depuis maintenant plus de quarante ans.

Since I am young, I appreciate my foreign languages (Français, English, et al.) and my interest in their features; It is important to note that this is an excellent understanding of the general manner of the business, but also helps to facilitate the development of the new language.

Since we are young, we have a tendency to accumulate experience and experience in the long term, and also continue to develop our individual collectives, young and old.

I offer Dutch lessons based on an interactive approach.

I adapt to each student's needs to address any gaps in their knowledge while building their confidence. The focus is on understanding and expressing a language (structures, vocabulary), which allows for lasting progress.

I work in a supportive and structured environment where students can express themselves freely and progress at their own pace. My goal is also to help them gradually become independent in their learning.

Who are the courses for?

Secondary school students (all levels)
Difficulties with Dutch (vocabulary, grammar, reading, writing, speaking, listening)
Preparation for tests and the CE1D
Students needing to regain confidence or consolidate their foundations

Studying a language is not just about memorizing lists of verbs, it is above all about being able to express oneself with confidence.
My approach is simple: clarity and practical application are my priorities. Whether it's for French (FLE), Spanish, or Italian, we'll work on what truly matters to you.
Zero blockage: We practice speaking from the beginning so that speaking becomes natural.
Current content: We use a variety of media (videos, articles, podcasts) to understand the language as it is spoken today.
School effectiveness: For students, we go straight to the essential points to unlock understanding.

My approach for our first meeting:
The first session is dedicated to your goals and interests. I like to build my lessons around your passions: this allows us to work on specific vocabulary and conversation topics that truly motivate you. A lesson tailored to you is a lesson where progress is faster.

When do we start?

I am a creative, patient and adaptive primary teacher with 8 years of experience. I began teaching as a university student, volunteering in a local primary school, and fell in love with helping students feel passionate and engaged in their learning. I began my teacher training in 2017 with the Teach First programme, teaching near London. In 2019 I moved to Italy and taught there for 6 years, honing my skills in developing confident learners with a great understanding of English. Last year, I moved to Belgium to join my partner and have begun life as a tutor!

What I love most about tutoring is being able to target each lesson to the child, slowly building their confidence and focusing on the areas they need most support, helping them to feel confidence in their learning. I build their interests and strengths into each lesson so they feel engaged and supported. I have a wealth of experience supporting students with a range of SEND needs as well as English as an Additional Language.
