    Saige
    Learn and practice English language skills - all levels welcome!
    Hello! My name is Saige, and I am a native English language speaker from Canada. I have experience teaching English language at all levels, from the very basics to improving conversational language skills. I take an individual approach to support with reading, writing, grammar, and vocabulary practice. LESSONS AND TEACHING APPROACH: I believe that language learning should be a comfortable and enjoyable process. The more positive your experience, the more meaningful and sustainable your learning will be. Before starting, I suggest a session where we get to know each other and talk about your language learning goals. I know that that everyone has different learning styles and paces, and so I take a flexible and individually-made approach to teaching. I will prepare everything we need for the lesson, and suggest that we meet wherever is easiest and most comfortable for you.

    English Language Classes from A1 to C2 ( writing, speaking, listening, reading)
    Hi, My name is Ivan. I’m a bachelor's in linguistics from the Institute of Foreign Languages in Saint Petersburg. We can just speak English to boost vocabulary or I can just assist you in learning grammar (modal verbs and phrasal verbs, for example), detailed reading, and listening skills. I also can assist you in preparing for IELTS and CAE using my own technique. My IELTS score is 8, with 9 out of 9 for reading and listening. I work as a copywriter on Upwork, and so can teach you how to find work on Upwork and get the best reviews. I have some of the world’s best materials and am glad to share them for free... Please contact me for fun English lessons...

    French with native-speaker: Elementary language, Tools to get independent, Grammar, French Culture, History, Geography.
    (Help for homework, help outside from lesson hours, speaking, writing, preparation for exams, learn from scratch). In today's world, languages are important. Knowing a language expands your job opportunities, but also allows you to discover different cultures, different mentalities. It takes time to learn a language and it requires regular work. In my lesson, I can teach you the basics of the french language, but also dig more into the French grammar as well as talking about french culture, history, and geography. My aim will be to make you independent, so you can work by yourself.

    Maths and English tutoring for high-school students
    These classes are for school students, who may find certain topics, or the whole subject unclear. Don't let those small complications get you down. I'm here to help. The tutoring can be held online through any app you prefer or by meeting at a certain place (cafe, if you prefer noisy places or your comfy study room). I offer full subject tutoring or assistance in projects/home assignments. In the case of full subject tutoring, I might give some small extra work, so that you do it on your own without any help from anyone else, to make sure you understood the topic and can move on with the next one. I promise, that classes won't be boring and communicating with me in English will be super easy and sometimes even fun. You will see the result for yourself after a certain time and I will only be proud to know, that I might have helped you.

    Italian for Beginners, Intermediate and Natural Sciences students
    A native Italian speaker, I have 8 years experience teaching Italian to beginner and intermediate level students in Sweden. As a beginning you will get a strong basis in grammar and phonetics, as this is essential for any serious language learning, but I focus on dialogue skills as well, and adapt my teaching to the students particular needs. I have academic education at PhD level, and can prepare university students for Italian language exams. I can also teach Italian for science applications.

    Private French lessons for adults and teenagers with native French speaker in Co. Mayo
    For the past two decades, I've had the privilege of tutoring in both French and English. My students have ranged in age, background, and origin, spanning children, teenagers, adults, professionals, and even seniors aged 85 and above. You might wonder why I teach both languages. Well, I am bilingual, with American and Swiss/French roots, and I currently reside in Ireland. This unique blend of experiences equips me with a strong and relevant teaching approach. I possess an intimate understanding of both cultures, enabling me to tailor my classes to the specific needs of my students. My teaching journey began during my time studying social work in French-speaking Switzerland. I started offering private French and English lessons to supplement my income, and I quickly discovered my passion for it. Even after graduating and embarking on a full-time career, I couldn't bear to give up this rewarding activity. I cherished the opportunity to connect with diverse individuals and assist them in achieving their language goals. In my teaching methodology, interactivity takes center stage. I employ a variety of engaging learning tools, including photos, newspaper articles, music, videos, and more. My approach is highly adaptable, with a focus on addressing each student's unique priorities. Some seek to refine their pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary, while others require assistance with presentations or speeches for school or work. Some simply aspire to acquire a new language to enrich their general knowledge. I also specialize in teaching younger children, a testament to my educational background and experience. What you will gain from my courses extends beyond impeccable pronunciation and enhanced vocabulary and grammar. You'll also acquire a profound understanding of the culture associated with each language. When speaking a language, it's essential to appreciate the lifestyle, traditions, and heritage of the nations where it thrives. French and English are spoken as primary languages in numerous countries worldwide, each with its own unique accent and cultural nuances. The learning process is limitless! In addition to my language instruction, I'm a genealogist and host spiritual (non-religious) seminars in the beautiful West of Ireland. My passion for vegetarian and vegan cuisine adds a flavorful dimension to my life. Furthermore, I hold a degree in Early Childhood Education and have operated a private "Before & Afterschool" facility along with Summer Camps catering to children aged 4 to 12 for many years. I am genuinely excited about the prospect of meeting and working with you!

    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.
