Présentation

Hi!:)
I am a young university student in Amsterdam and have lived in the Netherlands for the last three years. Originally I am German/Namibian, which is why both German and English are my native languages! I have however lived in many different countries, including Namibia, Malawi, Germany and The Netherlands.
I greatly enjoy interacting with people, and am considered a very kind and open person. Some of my hobbies include dancing, painting and basketball. I am curious about anything and everything, but I am currently studying international politics as that was what caught my attention the most :)
I look forward to helping you on your journey to learn the English or German language!

English Tutor for Any Level (Beginner/Intermediate/Advanced)

24.87 $ /h

With our world growing to be more connected by the day, English has become an essential language in all areas of life. Whether you wish to find a job, travel or simply consume news, English is an asset.
I offer individual tutoring sessions or classes in small groups, as preferred by the students. The lessons will be tailored to your personal goals: do you want to learn the basics? Do you need someone to practice speaking with? Or would you like to improve your writing skills (academic or otherwise)? Anything can be arranged!

German Tutor for Any Level (Beginner/Intermediate/Advanced)

28.42 $ /h

German is a language which, while spoken in comparatively few countries, is an immense asset to any person looking to live or work in another country at some point in their lives.
While it has the reputation of being a cold and difficult language, I strongly believe that there are many beautiful things about it and encourage anyone with a bit of interest to try and learn it! As such, I offer private tutoring sessions for any level of German, and in any form: they can be one on one, or you can contact me with a friend or a group! Depending on your goals, the class will be tailored to focus on achieving them: if you need to practice speaking, writing, reading - that's what we will do!

Hello! I'm an Italian high school teacher and published writer with a strong academic background in Literature and Languages, studied across Italy, the UK, and France. I have extensive experience tutoring students of all ages and levels, and I bring both a structured and culturally rich approach to each lesson.
My classes are personalized to suit the individual needs, goals, and current level of each student. Typically, a lesson is divided into two parts:

- Grammar & Language Structure – I teach grammar interactively using a textbook as a guide, alongside custom exercises that I prepare based on each student’s progress and needs.

- Conversation Practice – We dedicate time to speaking and listening, helping students become more confident and fluent in real-life communication.

For intermediate and advanced learners, I enrich lessons with insights into the evolution of the Italian language, drawing connections to Latin roots and Italian literature. I also weave in elements of Italian culture—from regional expressions to literary references—to make the learning experience more immersive and enjoyable.

Whether you're learning Italian for travel, study, work, or personal interest, I’ll help you reach your goals with a method that is both rigorous and inspiring.

So, how can we send a clear message, be impactful, create a difference and make an impact?

➤ Whether your objective is personal or professional, written communication is an activity based on techniques, tools, a method and know-how, reflecting the author's involvement in his writing.

It is precisely a question of going through, applying and deploying practical and effective techniques, taking care of both substance and form, all in a professional or personal context. For this, there are very specific techniques.

➤ Thus, mastered, the practical method allows, through a set of modules supporting pragmatic & concrete techniques, to improve one's written communication.

➤ To achieve your objective and overcome the blockages encountered through concrete techniques & a targeted methodology, it is a question of:
✓decode and use practical communication tools from great authors

✓create consistency between the message sent and the message received
✓adopt effective, simple, fair and engaging language
✓use sentences, phrases and expressions to be precise, simple, effective & engaging

✓practical techniques to encourage reader engagement
✓Strengthen the structure of your communication and develop a convincing argument in order to sell your ideas and projects
✓better prepare your message and arguments; anticipating objections and delicate situations; by preparing and structuring an attractive and convincing presentation framework; by adequately managing difficult situations

The Arabic writing system may seem challenging at first glance, but in reality, it’s a beautifully structured alphabet that anyone can learn. With the right approach and a bit of dedication, mastering it takes less time than you might think.

In this class, we will learn and memorize the shape of the letters and their correct pronunciation through listening exercises and writing practice. As we explore the alphabet, we will also dive into Arabic culture and traditions, making the learning process both engaging and meaningful.

After years of teaching Arabic, I created this class to help:

Curious learners who want to explore the Arabic alphabet and pronunciation.
Arabic speakers who never had the chance to learn how to write.
Those struggling with the language and looking for a stress-free way to break the ice.

SUMMARY DESCRIPTION (IN BRIEF):
➤Unleash your writing skills and finally realize your writing project!
Novels, short stories, life stories, theses, songs or simple texts: these workshops help you overcome your blocks and transform your ideas into vivid and inspiring stories.

➤ Together, we will work to:
-Overcome your fear of the blank page and awaken your creativity
-Develop style, vocabulary, coherence and authenticity
-Creating characters, settings, and captivating storylines
-Explore your imagination, your emotions, and your flaws to turn them into a strength
-Alternating theory and practice with concrete exercises and personalized feedback

➤ Proofreading, correction, optimization of your texts possible.
➤Objective: to write with pleasure, progress faster and bring your project to completion.

➤Let yourself be guided: your dream of writing can become a reality.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION:
➤Exploring and sharing the pleasure of words, building the stories that inhabit you, developing your expression, deepening your creativity, exploring contemporary writing, proposing a novel, short stories, a life story, an (auto)biography, a fiction, an essay, song lyrics, various texts or simply a report, a thesis, a report for professional or academic purposes... these are among the objectives of these workshops to deepen or initiate writing and realize one's aspirations by prioritizing the pleasure of writing based on elements of personalized pedagogy.

➤Overcome your fears and unlock creative inspiration to finally complete your project.

Let yourself be guided and finally realize your dream of writing.
➤ Overcome your fears
➤ Discover the secret to producing high-quality writing that's 100% enjoyable and 0% writer's block.
➤ Awaken this writer's flame that has been dormant in you for a long time
➤ Build unwavering legitimacy and overcome the fear of failure, lack of time and procrastination that keep you from moving forward.

In short, overcome your fear of writing. Isn't it frustrating to be consumed by the desire to write your project and yet unable to do so? Break down that insurmountable wall that's holding you back.

This involves combining improvements in form with refinements in content. For example, concrete techniques for starting your text and overcoming writer's block, feedback/suggestions on your texts, writing and style exercises based on a prompt, a series of precise/pragmatic recommendations and their implementation.

That is why, if your manuscript is stuck and you don't know how to start or continue it, if you have all the ideas but don't know what form they should take, if you want to save time in the creative process: let's build the architecture of your story together.

Learning objectives include:
• Discover writing, build confidence, let your own literary voice/path emerge, and unleash your imagination
• Studying and constructing a text, song lyrics...
• Calmly refine the style and create consistency between form and content
• Research and develop your vocabulary
• Acquire techniques and know-how to convey your message both clearly and simply
• Differentiate between writing for oneself and writing for others
• Explore your creativity and develop your expression
• To construct a complete story by creating characters, settings, lively scenes...
• Acquire and master practical writing tools, always with a focus on simplicity/simplification and efficiency (both in content and form)
• Discover contemporary writing and diversify your practice
• Acquire narrative techniques to engage in long stories

So, start, resume or finish a piece of writing you have dreamed of for a long time if you want to write but don't know where to start; if you have a story but don't know how to tell it; if you love to write but have lost your inspiration; if you have a manuscript buried in a drawer and you are afraid of failing.

To achieve this, the first step is to unleash your writing and let go: strengthen your imagination, explore your inspiration, and cultivate your originality. Next, turn your weaknesses into a driving force for writing by exploring your wounds to better utilize them and adopt an effective writing method. Finally, master writing techniques and bring characters to life while crafting captivating stories, controlling pacing, and developing suspenseful plots.

All this by combining theory and practical/concrete applications: writing assignments based on exercises and then within the framework of your project.

During the sessions, you will be guided in your writing project. The trainer will support you in your written communication and offer tools, while helping you to work on and/or optimize your style and imagination.

Proofreading, revising, correcting and formatting articles, theses, etc.: these options are also possible.

Furthermore, these sessions allow one to improve one's written communication and to study the different methods to achieve this (email, letter, report, presentation...), both in terms of content and form.

Learning German can be easier: I support children (approx. 6-12 years old) with reading, writing, and spelling, patiently, systematically, and in a positive learning environment. We first work together to identify where they're struggling, and then practice exactly what's currently important for school. It's important to me that your child not only completes tasks "correctly," but truly understands how to learn more confidently and independently. We celebrate small steps forward, because they make the biggest difference.

Learning a language doesn’t have to feel like an obligation. In my lessons, it becomes something you use: in real conversations, at work, at school, and in everyday life. I teach children, teenagers, and adults, always adapting to the age, level, and goals of the student. Through roleplays, simulations, and practical exercises tailored to you, you don’t just learn vocabulary and grammar, you build the confidence and skills to truly function in Dutch.

When we set an objective, we work toward it step by step. At the same time, we create a supportive space together where mistakes are part of growth. You can expect clear progress, personalized guidance, and lessons that help you move from understanding Dutch to confidently owning it.

Diplômé d’un bachelor, je propose des cours particuliers de français pour aider les élèves à améliorer leur compréhension, leur expression écrite et leur aisance avec la langue.

Le français peut parfois poser des difficultés, que ce soit en grammaire, en orthographe, en rédaction ou dans l’analyse de textes. L’objectif des cours est de reprendre les notions de manière claire et progressive, en expliquant les règles simplement et en les appliquant à travers des exercices et des exemples concrets. J’accompagne aussi les élèves dans la préparation de contrôles, de dissertations, de commentaires de texte ou d’examens.

Je m’adapte au niveau et aux besoins de chaque élève afin de créer un cadre de travail sérieux mais agréable, où l’on peut poser des questions librement et progresser à son rythme. L’idée est autant de consolider les bases que de donner des méthodes efficaces pour lire, écrire et argumenter avec plus de confiance.

Les cours peuvent se faire en ligne ou à domicile selon les besoins. N’hésitez pas à me contacter pour discuter de la situation et voir comment je peux vous aider.
