(USA) Business/ Academic English Lessons with Native Speaker
Hello, I'm Rebecca, I'm from the USA and I'm currently pursuing my master's degree in international relations at Ghent University. I completed the TEFL certificate in 2020 and have over two years of professional experience teaching private English lessons. I am offering 1:1 private English lessons (online or in person if you are in Ghent) for students and professionals. One hour lesson (60 minutes) costs depending on your exact needs.
I also review/edit cover letters, CVs and academic essays, just ask!
I prefer to teach intermediate/advanced students who are looking to widen their professional vocabulary and perfect pronunciation, are preparing for the TOEFL or IELTS exam, or are wanting to practice for an upcoming interview in English.
My teaching style is very open and flexible – you can always suggest new themes or concepts and I will build my lessons based off of your feedback. I want you to learn in the best way possible.
If you are interested, send me a message and we can set-up a short call where I can get to know you and your goals and you can learn more about myself and my teaching style.

Native teacher teaches Spanish and English at home in Ghent
Hello! I am a Spanish student doing Erasmus in Ghent. I am studying Early Childhood Education at the University of Artevelde.
The methodology I use is practical since my intention is to make language learning as dynamic and efficient as possible, always taking into account the needs and interests of each student.
My classes turn out to be effective since in the same session we can practice everything: grammar, vocabulary, reading and writing comprehension and, of course, speaking!
I'm looking forward to meet you!

Speaking and Writing Practice in English with a native speaker/young professional
Are you looking for structured opportunities to speak English in a relaxed way?
Maybe you would like help with honing your writing skills to ace your next exam, job application, and important email.
My class is an opportunity to work on your English language skills in all four areas: writing, listening, speaking and reading. My approach is based on experiences teaching English in a variety of contexts: French schools, private tuition, and migrant integration networks. At the base of my teaching is my experience as a language learner.
I, myself, have been a language learner for a long time and I know how it feels to be stuck in class without having real opportunities to have long and fruitful conversations in the target language. I also know that writing in the target language takes time and practice.
Join me for a first conversation on anything and everything.
After all, practice makes perfect.

Private English Language Teaching Class to improve your skills in Reading, Listening, Speaking and Writing.
With my 6 years of language schools and private tutoring experience, I'm certain that this class would be a great deal of help to you. In this class we will be covering all the skills (Reading, Listening, Speaking Writing, Vocabulary) intensively. I have a wide range of English materials and you will be provided power point presentations, flash books, listening activities etc. during our teaching sessions. Additionally, what I do for my students is, I prepare materials for individuals according to their needs in English, and what I actually want from students is to practice what they have learnt via real-time situations.
Don't forget, learning English is only possible if you cooperate with your tutor.

During my class, we'll clean up parts of grammar that are essential to speak and write without flaws. Furthermore, you'll learn new vocabulary which will enable you to have more complex and profound coversations. In addition, we'll boost your confidence in spoken English, so you'll manage to smoothly express yourself. Overall, this class focuses on multiple skills, including speaking, listening, reading and writing.

Math, French, Dutch and English, Physics and Chemistry Lessons
Hi,
In an ever-changing world where knowledge and data keep growing, we may not neglect real social contact. Since I was a little boy helping others has always been important to me. I would like to contribute to our society by bringing people together. Connecting them is my ambition and I want to work towards this goal.
I am a Belgian student in my second year of Civil Engineering (KU Leuven). Recently, I realized this is not the direction I want to go. The courses being too theoretical to me, I was lacking the perspective of human interaction. The latter is the main incentive for my academic reorientation.
In September, I will start a degree in Business Engineering. Before I start my new studies, I want to use the upcoming 5 months to share my knowledge and acquire complementary skills.
The quality of teaching at my high school (Heilig Hartcollege Tervuren) is something I’m really proud of. I would be glad to share the education I had the chance to get and support you or your child/teen. Consider it as some study pathway counseling. I can cover almost every field until university level Civil Engineering.
Don’t hesitate to contact me if you have a special inquiry or would like to know more about me or the fields of study I can cover.
I’m currently in Belgium where I have acquired experience in giving private support for the past two years. If you are in Manhattan give me 3 to 4 days to pack my bags and fly over.
Lessons can be taught in English, French or Dutch.
Hoping to meet you soon and start working on enhancing those performances!
I'm open to all kind of offers and propositions.
Best regards,
Arnaud
