Russian is quite difficult compared to other languages. Although, that doesn't mean it's impossible to learn. With beginners we will work on basic rules, practice the most commonly used vocabulary and pronunciation. Advanced students will focus on Grammar, which is very neatly collected in VLLeonovich's book (one of the best books for school students in preparation for university level). Also, Russian literature and the ability to analyze it are of great importance.

English has become the Lingua Franca of our times. It's a valuable skill to possess, beneficial for everyone. It comes handy in the ever-developing world that we live in and opens doors to many places, also in the mind. Additionally, bilingualism enhances the cognitive skills. Whether you'd like to improve your speaking skills and break the language barrier or you wish to prepare better for an English exam, I come to an aid. In 2023, I've obtained a Master degree in Linguistics at the University of Amsterdam. I've achieved the C1+ levels in English, on the CEFR scale. I have 2 years of experience living in London, where I acquired RP (received pronunciation) and 7 years of experience in the International Academia (Amsterdam). My linguistic background gives me the capacity to explain the sounds and various processes of the language, from a perspective many natives do not know. In teaching, I practice the holistic approach. It is my belief that language is for people of every age and education, but I'm aware that everyone deserves a personal approach. In the first session, we always do a needs analysis and become acquainted, to make sure we click as people and will enjoy working away at your personal language goals. Over the years, my classes, have proven to raise the confidence levels of students. We practice knowledge in English, on 4 levels of proficiency: Speaking, Listening, Reading and Writing. I will focus on your strengths and guide you to how to use those to your advantage in learning. We will elicit your potential. With a little help, I am sure you will achieve the goals you set for yourself.

Hi there! I am a Vietnamese native (Hanoian), used to live in England for 2 years, and now in my 9th year living in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Tutoring Vietnamese is my passion and I dedicate myself to a great experience for the students. This class will introduce you to various aspects of the Vietnamese alphabet, grammar, and spelling. I will also provide speaking practice at the end of every class. This class is designed for those of you who are interested in the Vietnamese language, as well as Vietnamese culture. New vocabulary for each topic will be discussed. My study background is in Mathematics and Statistics, thus with the combination of languages you can expect 'a bit' of reasoning logic behind all lessons I give (which I think gives some structure to the lessons as well)!

Hola everyone! I have always been passionate about arts, culture, people, and traveling, and through my communicative experiences interacting with different people in different languages around the world, I have understood the essential needs when it comes to language acquisition. That is why my method is a compilation of the traditional usage of books, texts, audios, and short films, combined with PowerPoint presentations full of images, interactive games, and recreation of real-life situations in which the students will naturally learn complex grammar topics while having fun. I also create a particular relationship with each student to detect the type of learner the student is and tailor the class according to his/her personality, needs, and expectations. The class can be taught in English or Dutch but I am always aiming to expose the student to Spanish as much as possible so he/she can experience faster progress. I am a native Spanish speaker with a bachelor's degree in Social Communication from Pontificia Javeriana University in Bogota-Colombia, ELE Spanish Teacher certified by Lola Martínez Cabrera Senior Professor from “Molinos de Viento” in Amsterdam and hold a postgraduate degree as ELE Spanish teacher from Barcelona University and International House Institute. I have been giving private Spanish classes to adults for the last eight years. For the last 15 years, I have been dealing with Spanish, English, Dutch, and German on a daily basis.

It was not until I started traveling outside of Mexico that I realized the importance of the Spanish language. It is everywhere and its enormous diversity in accents and the cultures with which the accents are attached to are what make Spanish such an interesting and entertaining language to dive into. As I am a native speaker, and I have also focused on learning French and English, I want to help people feel more comfortable speaking Spanish and using it for all kinds of conversations, as well as understanding its grammar and vocabulary. I have been struggling learning Dutch as I am simply too shy to speak it publicly sometimes, so I understand how hard it can be to start feeling comfortable speaking a foreign language.
