Academic English Writing Support and Editing: Classes or One-off Services

Von 35.91 $ /Std

Struggling to write academic texts as part of your studies or research career? Need help improving your essay, presentation script or thesis? Or do you simply want to boost your writing skills?

I'm a teacher of English as a second language (with four years' experience), a professional editor/proofreader of academic writing (freelance, for Peerwith and Scribbr), and a graduate from a research masters degree with a humanities background. I know how to build and perfect strong academic texts in all fields, and also have a passion for supporting thinkers to communicate their ideas as best as possible.

During our tutorials and in my written feedback, I can improve your texts, but also your writing skills. Many other editing services will fix your writing, but won't explain how you can do this yourself. The goal here is to help you to not need someone like me any more! However, I am also happy to provide more straightforward editing, proofreading or formatting services. So it's possible to book one service or a series of support classes – for just you or for a small group, as you prefer.

Looking forward to helping you present your ideas!

Über mich

CELTA-qualified native English teacher with 2+ years experience teaching kids, teens, students and adults from all backgrounds. I'm also a journalist and rMA graduate (Cultural Analysis) with a lot of writing and editorial experience. Specialised in exam preparation (IELTS, Cambridge) and academic English, but have also taught general English in the UK, Spain and Amsterdam.

I'm young, smart and casual – I prefer informal classes with a lot of fun activities, video and popular culture. But I'm also highly experienced training students for exams, and teaching high level writing and academic skills. I can help most with writing at all levels!

I studied Literature and Cultural Analysis, so my passion for language comes from a love of books, films, music and television. This means that not only can I be particularly helpful to people writing academically (especially about culture), but also that I love to use popular culture in my classes.

English Classes (Private or Group): General or Cambridge/IELTS Preparation

33.44 $ /Std

CELTA-qualified native English teacher with 4 years of experience teaching kids, teens, students, and adults from all backgrounds. I'm also a journalist and research masters graduate with a lot of writing and editorial experience. I've taught general English, exam preparation (Cambridge, IELTS) and academic English in the UK, Spain, and Amsterdam.

I'm young, smart and casual – I prefer informal classes with a lot of fun activities, videos, and popular culture. But I'm also a specialist in exam preparation, high-level writing, and academic skills. I can help most with writing at all levels!

I offer structured 1-on-1 classes tailored to the student's needs, more informal conversation classes, group classes (up to 6), or proofing and editing services – let me know if you need help with cover letters, applications, university coursework or writing of any kind!

Rates vary with type and class size (groups and conversation classes are cheaper than structured 1-on-1). The minimum price shown is for such basic conversation classes – more structure and preparation of materials will cost more.

Bonjour,

Each course is prepared for your purposes.
I am on my way to school

I need the phonology/pronunciation/oral conversation course.
I support many adults in their transition. They need to converse and write in English for professional purposes (accent reduction, grammar, oral fluency, etc.) or as part of a revision course.

I am a language teacher.

In English:

Each course is prepared according to your personal needs.

I can intervene at the following levels:

- School:

College-High School => Correction/Improvement of grammar + other language activities such as oral/written comprehension or continuous speaking/interaction

(Linguistics / Phonology / Pronunciation)

- I accompany and have accompanied many adults who really had to speak/write English successfully as part of their professional activities (fluency, accent reduction, grammar ...) or as part of resuming their studies.

I am a trained linguist. Lessons cannot be improvised. I offer you the fruits of my expertise.

Some Reviews:
Chevaan:
Catherina is without a doubt THE best tutor we know. She is exceptionally committed and is always looking to inspire her students. She has consistently gone above and beyond the call of duty to help our son with his German. She provides excellent study material, engaging homework and follows up to ensure that her students have really grasped the subject matter.

Brian:
Catharina has been teaching our 11 year old daughter for the past few months and we are very impressed with her excellent progress in this short space of time.
Catharina has developed a very good rapport with our daughter and is patient and knowledgeable. Our daughter always looks forward to her next lesson and even hands in her homework on time! We would highly recommend Catharina to anyone who would like to learn a new language.

Afeisha:
Very professional, friendly and informative. I feel like Catharina will help me to reach where I need to. She doesn't just teach from the book, she teaches in a way that will allow you to blend in with ease. I am excited to learn more from her.

Egle:
Great tutor! Catharina adapts lessons to ones needs, gives very clear explanations and most importantly works on the pronunciation of the language. With every lesson she provides lesson material.

The objective is that: the learner masters the English language (🎧listening-comprehension,🎤 conversation, 📚 reading, grammar-pronunciation, writing...). It helps him to have language skills like native speakers. 🥇

At the same time, the learner will be 🚴‍♀️dynamic and well supervised by professional tutors who listen.
The atmosphere is distinguished: 🔥learning, interaction, no routine, no stress.

The learning tools used; videos, audios, texts, articles, images, games, stories...

We are happy to help both adults and pupils/students. If you want to learn the English language (reading, grammar, oral conversation, written production,...) or you have homework to do, or competitions/tests to take, 🏆 contact us :)

Each lesson is fully personalized to your level, goals, and specific needs (exams, immigration, work, studies, administrative procedures).

Sessions can focus on:
- DELF, DALF, and TCF exam preparation (practice tests, methodology, assessment criteria, oral and written simulations)
- French for immigration and naturalization
- Administrative French (forms, letters, understanding official documents)
-Professional and business French (emails, meetings, interviews, industry-specific vocabulary)
-Improving speaking skills, pronunciation, and fluency
-Strengthening grammar and vocabulary in context

The lessons are dynamic, structured, and interactive, with a strong emphasis on speaking practice. I use authentic materials: exam topics, administrative documents, articles, videos, and professional dialogues.

Thanks to my experience as an oral exam jury member and as a DELF, DALF, and TCF examiner, I will help you understand exactly what examiners expect and adopt the right strategies to succeed.

Regular follow-up is provided, with clear objectives and detailed feedback to track your progress and build confidence.

Bachelor's student in economics and management offers private lessons in German, French and English.
I obtained my bachelor's degree with a specialization in mathematics and physics and I have sufficient knowledge in mathematics, physics, chemistry, German, English and French.
In my teaching, I adapt to the learning conditions and the student's life in order to strengthen their self-confidence and ensure that they understand the lessons and progress.
My goal is to create an effective learning environment. I rely on the student's course, which I supplement if necessary with additional information.

Welcome :)

My name is Hamed (حمد), and I come from Syria. My passion lies in the art of writing, and I work as an author. It gives me great joy to teach my mother tongue and to help others learn how to read and write it.

In my course, we will dive in together and discover the fascination of the Arabic language. We will take the time to determine your personal language level so that the course can be adapted accordingly. Whether you are a beginner or already have advanced knowledge, we will work with exercises and activities tailored to your individual needs.

Together, we will embark on a journey in which we explore not only the language, but also the culture and diversity of the Arab world. I look forward to welcoming you to my course and learning and growing together with you.
Let us come together and experience the beauty of the Arabic language!

A graduate in Germanic languages, I have been a secondary school English/German teacher since 2021 and a private tutor since 2017. I also coordinate language camps and ONE centers and offer private English lessons. Whether you need academic support, want to meet professional challenges, are starting English from scratch, are looking to improve your skills, focus on grammar, speaking, or have other goals, I am available.

I offer lessons, but my main goal is to empower you to learn English, and languages in general, independently. I don't aim for the level of excellence you think you're currently in, but rather the level of excellence you allow yourself to achieve. My ultimate goal: that you no longer need me.

Each lesson is prepared in advance. I never arrive empty-handed.
