English Language improvement for ESL (English as a Second Language) or first language students

Van 25 € /h

English can be a complex language when not understood well. You will learn how to improve your sentence structures, use of tenses, and more advanced students will learn how to improve their essay writing and/or critical analysis of any texts, fiction or non-fiction. I can provide help for students with English as either a second language or as a first language.

Over

My name is Adele and I am a student at the European School of Brussels IV. I believe that being a student myself gives me a helpful insight into the world of my students, and I love developing ideas with more advanced students, promoting a more structured thinking process that will, in turn, lead to more critical writing and analysis.

When working with beginners I prefer to encourage the student to come to conclusions by themselves rather than providing them with an answer immediately to improve the effectiveness of self-studying. I can:

- Help with written/spoken grammatical errors
- Improve essay writing, focusing on the structure
- Offer more insight into how to deal with difficult texts
- Guide the student when writing a critical commentary
- Provide tips, ideas, and techniques for creative writing

As you know, speaking English is essential — especially when you’re abroad and don’t speak the local language. Whether you're starting from the basics or want to improve your fluency, I’m here to help you every step of the way!

I am an experienced French teacher who also teaches English, Armenian, and Russian. In my lessons, I focus on grammar while placing a strong emphasis on speaking and building confidence in real communication.

I’m known for being very patient, kind, and supportive, always creating a positive environment where my students feel comfortable and motivated to learn.

Classes are online .
Let’s start your language journey together — I look forward to meeting you, my lovely students! 🌟

Have you ever been worried that your accent isn't good enough, or that you may be mispronouncing things, or you just want practice speaking? Well, I can help you out! As a native English speaker and near native Italian speaker, I can help you from the basics, to helping you correct university level papers, and to just sitting down and having a chat with you!
I have had past experience with tutoring and am flexible towards what my students want. If you're looking for someone to give you weekly homework, and to teach you grammar and vocabulary then I can do just that (with an entertaining, laidback feel to it). I don't want learning a language to feel like a chore, or a burden, therefore I put a lot of effort in making my classes interesting, new, and fun to ensure you take the most out of it.
If you would like to know more about who I am, or need any help in English and Italian I am ready to help!

My goal is to guide and help the students grasp a high level of understanding in the basics of English language skills, ESL, and Italian.
Moreover, I aim, with the students, to achieve a more advanced level for the students in speaking, reading, and understanding. I can assure flexibility in my lessons. If students find they already know something quite well, I will not dwell on such topics too long and will move on to other topics that are new to them, or of interest. My goal is to provide a focused session in which the student is really the center of attention, where all their needs are met.

My name is Serdane and I offer English lessons to high school students and adults who find it difficult to develop a way of working that suits them. Extroverted and bubbly... and above all, full of humor!

I believe that language learning is based above all on the development of an appropriate learning method. Some learn languages intuitively by engaging in conversations. Others, on the contrary, need rigorous exposure to grammatical concepts before launching into conversations. There are as many ways to learn as there are students... That's why I adapt my lessons to everyone's needs, and above all, I try to help each student discover what works for him, so that he can continue to progress independently.

My areas of expertise:
- Enhancement
- catching up
- Grammar reviews
- Conversation course
- Work method (organization, schedule of revisions, etc.)

My price includes complete academic support (private lessons, the possibility of asking questions outside of class hours, writing and correcting questions, etc.).

I produce all of my course materials for each student. So there is no need for you to buy a learning book. However, if you are already working from a book, it is entirely possible for me to adapt to it.

Nice to meet you! :-)

Francophone having studied in Dutch-speaking education, I continued my studies in both languages. During my studies, I followed several internships abroad (UK, Malta) to perfect my English.

The first objective is to learn / review the basics of English with the student, grammar and a precise vocabulary.
It all depends on the objectives that the student has, I can prepare the appropriate lessons / materials

Hey you! Do you want to learn English or improve it? You are in the right place!
English is one of the most common and useful languages in the world, whether for work, travelling, watching series in original version, understanding your favorite American or English star...

What? An English course for both beginners and advanced, both for children and adults... we discover the basics of the language, grammar and useful vocabulary in a fun way, or we deepen these knowledge, with some revisions if necessary. Obviously, we will tackle all skills: reading, writing, speaking and hearing.

Who? I'm Julie, a fan of languages, I've already mastered almost four, and I always want to discover new ones. English has (almost) no more secrets for me. I'm also a photographer and a photography teacher on the side, so I have a background in building lessons with lots of practice.

How? For one to two hours (two hours recommended to progress more efficiently), I always prepare my lessons specially and in an up-to-date way, using recent articles, relevant and useful vocabulary on a daily basis. Classes are currently only taking place online, as I am not in Belgium.

When? Well, whenever you want! As soon as possible, to improve your English tomorrow!

So what are you waiting for?

Hello everyone!
My name is Maria, a Venezuelan musician residing in Belgium. In the world of art, languages and cultures are a fundamental part of being able to understand each other and connect with each other in order to create something beautiful together, in my case music. Apart from being an artist, I like languages and learning them has become a passion for me, which is why I decided to take this passion to another level.

During my classes I want to help you learn my native language, which is Latin American Spanish, in a personalized and dynamic way.
The classes are separated by levels (A0-B2), where you will learn the grammar of the language but also vocabulary and expressions to use on a daily basis with other speakers of the language.
My idea is that each student learns the language at their own pace but understanding and daring to speak it from the first day. Support material (book, exercises, audios, etc) is always included.

Classes can be individual or in groups, both online and in person (Brussels, Belgium).
Classes will be given in English and Spanish.

Don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.
I hope to see you soon and start discovering and learning this beautiful language!

Greetings,
Maria.

¡Hola a todos!
Mi nombre es Maria, musico Venezolana residiendo en Bélgica. En el mundo del arte, los idiomas y las culturas son parte fundamental para poder entendernos entre cada artista y conectar para poder crear algo hermoso juntos, en mi caso la música. Aparte de ser artista me gusta los idiomas y aprenderlos se ha convertido en una pasión para mi, por eso he decidió llevar esta pasión a otro nivel.

Durante mis clases quiero ayudarte a aprender de una forma personalizada y dinámica mi lengua natal, que es el español latinoamericano.
Las clases están separadas por niveles (A0-B2), en donde aprenderás la gramática de la lengua pero también vocabulario y expresiones para usar en el día a día con otros hablantes de la lengua.
Mi idea es que cada alumno aprenda el idioma a su ritmo pero entendiendo y atreviéndose a hablarlo desde el primer día. Material de apoyo (libro, ejercicios, audios, etc) está incluido siempre.

Las clases pueden ser individuales o en grupos, tanto online como en persona (Bruselas, Bélgica).
Clases se darán en Ingles y español.

No dudes en contactarme si tienes alguna pregunta.
¡Espero verte pronto y comenzar a descubrir y aprender este hermoso idioma!

My name is Guy, and I am a Brit/Belgian currently living near Mérode in Etterbeek, Brussels.
I can offer beginner/intermediate/advanced classes, conversation classes, and can help students pass their English language exams. I am happy to do it online, at your place, or at my place. It's never too soon or late to learn or improve your English skills which is why I'm available for all age ranges.
I will be available as of 25 February 2025 to give lessons to you or your children.
I have taught English before to Italian and Belgian children (aged 7-12) which has vastly improved their writing and oral skills at school. Some were complete beginners, some had trouble with pronunciation, and were always grateful for the help I gave them.
A little bit about myself: I am 31 years old, bilingual (English and French), speak Italian, some Dutch, and I'm currently studying Slovenian at the ULB in Brussels. I play a bit of saxophone too!

In this class I help kids learn math and science in a fun and easy way. I explain things step by step and use games, examples, and simple activities so everything is easier to understand. The goal is to help students feel more confident, ask questions, and enjoy learning math and science. It is about understanding how things work, learning how to think logically, and enjoying the process of learning. I adapt my teaching to the needs of each child and encourage curiosity, creativity and independent thinking.
