French (literature, grammar and syntax)

From 25 € /h

I specialize in tutoring English and French as they are both my native languages. I have extensively studied French and English literature for more than 10 years and would wish to convey what I've learnt to other students. My goal is to keep students at a high level with their foreign language courses and to maximize their interest for both of these beautiful languages. I assign homework after every class in order to keep the student captivated but mainly to make him/her improve.

Hey there! Get ready to jump into the world of Italian with me – Roberta- your go-to person for Italian language (yes, including hand gestures!)

I have a background in diplomacy and international relations but a deep love for communications and languages.
My classes are tailored to your needs.
We do an assessment during the first chat and then we choose together the right method: classes with a mix of audio, and video lessons and or just a lot of conversation covering phrases, vocabulary, pronunciation, and grammar. And guess what? It's not just learning; if you come to my house it's a blast through Italian food too! :)

By the end, you'll be rocking phrases like "Supercalifragilistichespiralidoso" and tossing around Italian words like a pro.
🎉 Ci vediamo presto!

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.

I am a native Italian speaker so who better than me can teach you Italian!
I have already experienced teaching languages (Italian and English).
We can, together, structure the lessons and find what is most suitable for you and the best way for you to learn.

In these lessons, you can learn Italian grammar, culture, spelling, pronunciation. I can tell you all you want to know about the Italian language.

I teach all levels of english and have experience in different age groups as well as levels. Making you feel comfortable in my classroom is essential to a good student teacher relationship. I like to make my lessons as interactive as possible. Students learn from me but i also learn from my students. Learning whilst having fun is key! I give all sorts of lessons, from speaking, to grammar to vocabulary. You know the drill.

I try to use as many materials and visuals as possible, I design worksheets, stories and games for my students. Its most important to set goals throughout the proces and reflect on these goals after each lesson to know where we stand.

I already can’t wait to meet you and start our learning journey together!

Depending on your request, the class can focus on the improvement of your oral or written competencies. If you want to learn grammar or master your letter writing or comprehension skills, we will work on that. In case you want to maintain the level of your understanding and oral abilities, we will improve that.

I have been teaching English for nearly 25 years. I teach exclusively online (via Teams).

I am TEFL certified. I also have the TEFL - TBE (TEFL Certificate in Teaching Business English) and the TEFL - TEYL (TEFL Certificate in Teaching English to Young Learners) certificates.

Selon votre demande, la classe peut se concentrer sur l'amélioration de vos compétences orales ou écrites. Si vous souhaitez apprendre la grammaire, maîtrisez vos compétences en écriture ou compréhension, nous travaillerons à ce sujet. Dans le cas où vous souhaitez maintenir le niveau de compréhension et les capacités orales, nous améliorerons cela.

J'enseigne l'anglais depuis près de 25 ans maintenant. J'enseigne exclusivementpar webcam (par Teams).

Je suis certifié TEFL. J'ai également les certificats TEFL-TBE (certificat d'enseignement de l'anglais des affaires) et TEFL-TEYL (certificat d'enseignement de l'anglais aux jeunes apprenants).

Hey Everyone!
I am offering lessons to help you improve or freshen up your English/German no matter what your current level is.

To start we will first talk about your experience and current skill level and then look at where you could improve on. We will discuss which areas you want to focus on, where I can prepare materials for you to get you more secure in speaking and writing the language depending on what your goal is!
I will then personally create and structure the lessons for you and help you wherever possible :)

Some sort of Homework or exercise will be introduced but of course in a fun way. If you want to focus on writing I can give you practice writing exercises and we can go over these together!

I am very flexible with the time so just leave me a message I would appreciate it :)

I specialize in teaching Greek to beginners and intermediate students, providing them the foundation to master this difficult language. I cover topics such as word order, grammar, spoken vs. written Greek, conversational and every day Greek, as well as spelling, writing, and pronunciation. Each class can be tailored to the students individual needs. This class is for anybody who just wants to improve speaking/writing, as well as for those just starting out.
Lessons can be given online, or in person.
Greek is a language that is increasingly spoken, and is useful in many aspects of life, including but not limited to: biology, geometry, medical terminology, etc. With Greece's economy growing, it is an ideal destination to move either as an expat, digital nomad, or as a startup company. I look forward to helping you on your journey of acquiring this language!

Hello everyone! I hold a doctorate in Italian, have been teaching Italian for 5 years and hold a CELTA teaching qualification. I've been preparing students for the A-Levels and GCSE (language + literature). I can prepare you for specific examinations, language lessons in general or teach you Italian for business. The lessons are for everyone, whatever their age or level (children to adults). I will make sure that you discover the Italian culture through the lessons, learn the correct pronunciation and of course learn some grammar. I am open to your needs and can speak a few languages to make sure you understand fully the lessons (of course, we’ll try to use mostly Italian in all our lessons depending on your level).

I can’t wait to meet my new students! 😊

I would love to learn more about the opportunities with teaching English. Would you have few minutes talk with me about what you're looking for? As a starting point, here's a bit about my backround:

I have enjoyed tutoring students of different ages and with varying abilities. 'I offer skills in evaluating student, student development and group tutoring. Regardless of the material, I can break it down into easily understood concepts. I know that i can make a positive impact on a students and their learning.

Would you be open for a quick chat ? Please let me know.

Sincerely

Christabel

Italian tutor for the people wishing to learn Italian. I can guide you through the Italian language on different layers, including grammatical, listening and speaking exercises/communications.

I am available in Italian, English and Spanish and I can adjust the language according to your preference. I am also available for any level and for every purpose of learning.

Regarding the location, I can physically meet you in Amsterdam, or I am also available for online classes.

I am a native English and Italian speaker, and I have worked as a tutor and language teacher over the past ten years, while also studying History and Cultural Heritage. My experience includes teaching English language courses at different levels, preparing for language exams, conversation practice, as well as text translation and correction. My past customers range from teenage and adult students, to young and older professionals.

As an instructor and teacher, I offer:

• Lessons at all levels: Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced.
• A multi-faceted approach, which covers: conversation practice, text comprehension, grammar, writing, academic and professional vocabulary.
• Training in Professional/Business English.
• Preparation for language tests: FCE and CAE Cambridge tests, IELTS, SATs.
• Conversation practice (tailored to the needs of the student).
• Text translation and proofreading.

Approach - I always encourage the student to develop a personal connection to the language by exploring personal interests in English. In my lessons, I favour a practical approach (real-life situations) and use texts, videos and conversation to elicit grammar rules and vocabulary. When necessary, the lesson is focused on grammar rules and the correct use of language. This positive approach, along with regular practice, will definitely improve your English and keep it active in the long term.

With four years of teaching experience, holding Teacher Training Course Certificate , and an IELTS speaking score of 8, I focus on making lessons engaging, simple, and communicative.
I understand that language learning takes time, so I keep my classes as straightforward as possible. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to master English, I’m here to help every step of the way. Plus, I've been guiding students on how to prepare for both the IELTS and Duolingo exams, ensuring you're well-equipped to succeed.

Knowledge of Italian is useful in and of itself; but it is also essential for the study of other fields like history, literature, music, art, business, economics, and political science. So, whether you want to learn how to order your own "gelato" in Rome, improve your knowledge of Italian grammar, or broaden your horizons through study and analysis of literature, by exposing yourself to a different culture, this is the course for you!

In class, we will speak Italian as much as possible to help you develop your speaking skills – obviously paying attention to correct grammar and vocabulary. I will speak Italian as much as possible – even from the very beginning – and encourage you to do the same.
Every class is targeted to the student's goals, which are discussed with me during our first introductory lesson.
Students can bring their own material, in case they need help preparing for a test or exam; alternatively I will provide learning material (digital or hard copy) based on the student's needs.

Italian’s culture is one of the most influential in the world. For both its history, food, life style, language, literature and poetry italian’s influence has been a crucial starting point for humanity’s development.
thanks for its natural beauties and hearth warming people italy is also a must for exploring and travelling.
whether for a trip or to learn a new language my course provide a deep knowledge on both the grammar, the history and the culture and arts of this beautiful country.
Being thought from an italian young adult is the best way possible to deeply connect with the country, even with open discussions about personal life and experiences.
