Sebastian
Swedish course for adults and teens! (All skill levels)
I am a Swedish native speaker and general language enthusiast. Besides Swedish, I speak English, German, Spanish, French and Italian. Having learned 6 languages myself, I am 100% convinced that I will successfully teach you Swedish(in a fun and relaxed manner)! Therefore, I offer a money-back guarantee: Should you not be satisfied with the results of a course with me, I will reimburse you. I have been teaching since 2018 and am currently one of the most-reviewed teachers on this platform. I encourage you to pause here and have a look at my reviews. I am confident that you too will have a similar view after having had some classes with me. On top of teaching here on Apprentus, I have taught offline group classes for the Volksuniversiteit The Hague (A Volksuniversiteit (litt. folk university) is an institute for non-formal adult education in the Netherlands). I also taught for and underwent training with Berlitz, which is one of, if not THE largest language school in the world, operating in over 70 countries and 500+ locations. I am 33 years old, have an honours degree from Leiden University, The Hague, am calm, encouraging, and, most importantly, PATIENT. My main objective in classes is to make the student feel relaxed and at ease. I encourage you to speak without fear of making mistakes. In fact, I celebrate making mistakes. "Why?", you may ask. Well, making mistakes means that you are leaving your comfort zone. You are trying something that you are not already skilled at. You don't choose the easy path! People who never make mistakes are stagnant. Therefore, making mistakes should be CELEBRATED instead of shunned! So, good on you for mispronouncing "Nachmittag (Afternoon)", or using the wrong grammar when making a sentence! Here, let me help you get it right this time! :) Do you already have Swedish knowledge? No problem! Instead of building the basics, we can design classes that meet your personal needs and preferences. We can write essays together, you can hold presentations about topics of your interests or topics that I provide, we can discuss current events, hold debates, you can write news-paper article summaries, or we deep dive into advanced grammar. Whatever it is that you enjoy and need: We can do it together. All my classes combine speaking, listening & grammar exercises in interaction with me. Unless you're a very advanced student, we will work with learning materials created by some of the best publishers for language learning in Sweden. These materials serve as a red thread for our course that introduces new words, grammar, and exercises in a good pace and interesting manner which keeps you engaged and motivated. Furthermore, I show you swedish food, music and places. On top of that, I introduce you to the best technological tools (homepages and applications) to boost your language learning and take it to the next level! Another important factor for me is having a personal connection. Unless you prefer to "stick to business", which is fine as well, we typically start our classes by talking about how the weekend or preceding weekdays have been. I don't see my students as a resource to be extracted, but as people for whom I develop a genuine interest. Over the course of time, we both know what is going on in our respective lives and update each other about small or big life events. Having taught many students for multiple years, I can gladly say that I have made real friends thanks to our classes, some of which I even have met in real life. I am extremely confident that you very soon will have the same success that I have had in learning languages! So what are you waiting for? Get in touch now to book an initial meeting in which we can get to know each other so that I can learn about you, your needs and wishes, which will allow us to design the optimal course for you. See you soon! Ses snart! Sebastian

Russian and English for maximum benefit and pleasure
Russian is the language spoken by people living in vast areas of Eurasia. It is used as a lingua franca by speakers of different languages. A large number of world-famous works of literary art were created by Russian writers. Whatever might happen on this planet, Russian will still have a role to play and will retain its status as one of the world's most important languages. As a native Russian speaker, I'll try to make you "feel the flavor" of this language, and as a certified teacher of English, I'll teach Russian through English so that you can master this extremely difficult language.

Olga

Hi Hi! My name is Olga, I am a second-year student at the university, native speaker. My faculty is Teacher education "Russian as a foreign language", so I know exactly what you need :) I believe that the study of language goes hand in hand with the study of *culture,* so I will be happy to talk about culture, traditions and mentality! I have experience working with foreigners - I am a volunteer at my faculty. We conduct classes with a group of foreigners twice a week. It doesn't matter for what purpose you are learning a language - I will make an individual plan for you! Don't worry if you don't speak Russian. We will learn the language from scratch :) Write me if you are interested in my lessons <3

Learn how to communicate in Russian and English now
I am a native speaker of Russian and a certified teacher of Russian as a foreign language. I also have a degree in linguistics and translation. My second language is English. I have taught English for seven years to children and adults, in groups and individually. Russian is the language spoken by people living in vast areas of Eurasia. It is used as a lingua franca by speakers of different languages. A large number of world-famous works of literary art were created by Russian writers. I invite motivated students to my Russian and English classes who know exactly what they want to learn the language for. Classes are held in an interactive format, so that attention is paid to all four types of communication skills: listening, speaking, reading and writing. In the case of special wishes of the student, preference is given to one aspect, for example, reading or speaking. At the beginning of each lesson, we set a goal, and at the end we sum up the results. I give my students feedback so that they could evaluate their progress.

ARABIC MADE EASY: Learn How To Speak Arabic For Non Native Speakers
Arabic is a wonderful and beautiful language to learn. It is known as the most elegant written language with over 400 million people who speak the language as either a primary or secondary language. Importantly might I add, this language is vital for anyone practicing Islam as it’s widely understood as the key to understanding the religion as its scripture was revealed in the very language. Even for non Muslims learning the language can still be of great benefit as it can open up great business opportunities in Arabic speaking countries. •This course will be great for understanding Arabic texts such as the Quran, hadiths and even non Islamic texts. Lots of teaching opportunities can be granted from learning MSA (modern standard arabic) as not all Arabic speakers speak in the same dialect, and teaching the MSA dialect is on high demand. •Through my course you will come to know at first, basic Arabic vocabularies and grammar to an advanced native speaking level. All I ask of anyone who is interested to lend an ear. •With my unique method of teaching you will quickly pick up new information from my lessons, whether it be tajweed or Arabic speaking. (Depending on what you wish to cover with me 1. Arabic reading with tajweed, or 2. Learning how to speak Arabic. This class is for speaking Arabic if you wish to learn how to read the language from scratch then please refer to my arabic reading class) Please also share this class with others so we can all benefit.
