About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
FRENCH TEXT IS FOLLOWED BY ENGLISH TEXT
I discovered my talents as a teacher. and my love for the profession of prof. after 10 years of not really enjoying the job I had in IT. While being better paid before, my degree of satisfaction and happiness is now incomparably higher. Thanks to this profession, I have come to the surface of capacities to make laugh, to maintain the attention, to explain in a clear way, to inspire, to calm, to motivate. I am, you will understand, super passionate about this job, and happy to be able to share my gift with you.
As for the concrete, I taught in various private schools in Belgium such as the Language Center Leuven that you may know as CLL, and other schools, smaller. I started teaching languages in 1984 when I was still living in Luxembourg. English is my mother tongue, nevertheless I speak French, German and Luxembourgish almost at the same level as a native. My written Dutch has been tested B2, my oral level is around B1.

I would like to show you how to develop your skills to learn a language effectively and with joy. I would like to share with you my belief that almost everything is possible when motivation and tools are present, thus making learning smoother, lighter.

The subjects that will be taught will be adapted to your level and your specific needs. We will use materials from the Internet including text, audio or video, We will talk about topics that are important to you because it is more effective to learn that way.
My courses are either Skype or face-to-face, and in terms of duration, are 30 minutes, one or two hours, either individually or in groups.

I discovered my teaching skills, and my love for teaching after 10 years of doing a job which I was not really enjoying despite the good pay. And although I was getting better, my degree of satisfaction and happiness are now incomparably higher. Thanks to teaching, to maintain their attention, to explain to them in a clear way, to inspire, to calm them down, to motivate them. I am here, you will be understood, I am very passionate about this job, and happy to be able to share my gifts with you.
As for the concrete facts of my past experience, I have been teaching in various private schools in Belgium, such as the Leuven Language Center which you could know as Language Centers in Leuven, as well as other, smaller schools, where names escape me.
I actually started teaching languages in 1984 when I was still living in Luxembourg. And yet English is my mother tongue, I also speak French, German and Luxembourgish almost at the same level as a native would. My written Dutch has been tested B2, my oral level is currently at around B1.

I would like to show you how to develop their skills to learn how to speak with joy. I would like to share with them my belief that anything is possible when motivation and tools are present, thus making the learning process smoother, lighter.

The subjects that will be taught to your level and your specific needs. We will talk about the topic of the Internet, but we are interested in this topic.
My classes are either Skype or face-to-face, and in terms of duration, are 30 minutes, one or two hours, individually or in groups.

Education

Translated by Google. Click to view original.

Experience / Qualifications

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
At the age of 22, I started teaching English. I then managed the family business for 3 years and, after a break from a year dedicated to travel and multiculturalism, I worked, from 1994 to 2008, as a consultant in the IT department of two large companies. Since 2005, I teach language courses, and also do translations and re-readings, both for language schools and my own.

Kevin
Polyglot specialist with 9 years of experience. German in speed mode. Level A1 to C2. No school teaching.
I offer you a German course that is not like the others. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches: If you travel back and forth by train every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options: 1) Memorise the timetable. 2) Realise that the train comes every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m. In school pedagogy, in textbooks and in normal lessons, the first approach is used - in the course I am offering you, it is the second approach because it is more economical and faster. My offer is aimed at both pupils and adults who want to learn the German language without time-consuming detours through the madness of fruitless school methods. Learning is easy, but unlearning things that have become bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, with my customised lessons you will greatly accelerate the learning process while having a positive attitude. I offer German lessons for individuals or groups (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive science and historical linguistics in particular. My modular programme can be adapted on a case-by-case basis. The converging point of these modules is your independence in spontaneous conversations in real life. What will not be covered in the course: learning lists of verbs; learning lists of nouns with articles; learning words with their translations; flashcards; doing school exercises; following the syllabus of a booklet; imposing the English grammar on the German language. What is particularly important to me: to motivate my student and to give him a learning rhythm; to encourage his creativity; to befriend him with the language; the letters and their sounds; to strengthen the memory by training the phonological loop; to teach blueprints instead of memorising sentences; to explain how the language works in order to make my student independent as quickly as possible; to eliminate common preconceptions, such as that 'der' would mean masculine and 'die' feminine, that the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, that verbs would be irregular, that declension would be random and therefore would have to be learnt with each verb...; to put practice at the centre and only deal with grammar where necessary. A first lesson will give you a sound idea of my pedagogy.

I am a French teacher. I have been teaching French, language, and communication since 2012. I speak Arabic, French, Spanish, a little English, and a little Turkish. I explain my lessons in French, Arabic, or Spanish, depending on your choice. During the sessions, I explain the course that suits your needs. There is also the option to create an open discussion so that you can speak fluently over time and avoid grammatical gaps. And at the end of each session, I give "lessons" with "exercises" to do as homework to continue our support and increase your level. Bring a notebook for this training (or any suitable means) to take notes and keep them.

Individual exam preparation for telc German B1, B2, C1 or the Goethe certificate for B1, B2, C1 or C2
As a certified examiner and experienced trainer for German (foreign language), I prepare you individually for the telc German and Goethe certificate exams. Why with me? I know the telc German exams and Goethe certificate exams in detail. You will not only learn the parts of the exam, but also the best strategy for solving each part of the exam and the tasks. Efficient preparation: As a rule, 10 appointments are enough if you already have good prior knowledge. We focus on you passing the exam. Ideal if you already have good previous knowledge. In just 10 appointments you will learn the exam format, the tasks and the best strategy. Do you need more time before the exam? Do you still have gaps, your knowledge of German is not sufficient or you have been living in Germany for a long time and it has been a long time since your last course? We will then add the most important topics relevant to the exam so that you are optimally prepared.
