-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I was born in Chicago, USA and I grew up in California. I currently live in Belgium and Spain (Fall 2019) as an English teacher.

Teaching has been one of my greatest passions since I first started working as a teacher in Thailand in 2015. Later, I started teaching private classes over Skype and in Spain. Private classes, above all, have been so rewarding to teach as I love building relationships with my students and watching them grow and improve over time.

Over the years I have had students who began classes when they knew only a few words in English, and C1 students with nearly perfect English who were looking to practice with a native speaker and learn vocabulary.

My ESL teaching methodology is to teach the language in a way that is practical to your life and experience. I personalize every class to what each individual student is interested in learning, or I create a theme for the class to help conversation flow and teach new vocabulary. While grammar is important, I value even more the ability to speak and understand confidently and fluidly.

Opleiding

I am an online student at Front Range University in Colorado, USA studying for a BA in English Literature and Education.

I currently hold a B1 Spanish Language.

In a personal learning route you walk on your own level and at your own pace through vocabulary, grammar and especially talking.
No school stuff, but a lot of variety to stimulate your GOESTING for the language and give a boost to your self-confidence.
YES, YOU CAN!
I am a certified language teacher (NL-ENG) with many years of experience in schools, adult education and companies, and consider me a 'language desire architect'.
Together we open doors in a creative way, we bring the world a piece of 'on your doorstep'.
And, who knows, in the near future you will have a (linguistic) lump richer!

I currently work as a private language teacher in Belgium and I have a good level of English. As I am not a native speaker, I do not give advanced lessons. People from any age, including kids, can follow my English lessons for levels A1, A2 and B1.

English at all levels:

- Speaking
- Writing
- Grammar
- Listening

In the first session, I will assess your level of English and also get an understanding of your interests and hobbies. I will then base the classes on things that you enjoy and find interesting. I found this an effective method when I took private Dutch classes

I believe that language is a powerful tool today. Not only does it help us understand the world from a different perspective, but it also teaches us the culture of the people who use it. I have had the opportunity to work with teenagers for 5 years now as a student associate in a science center, as a mentor and a lecturer in a different field. What I have learned from that experience is that first and foremost one must become a friend with their student, to understand their needs and their attitudes. I will do my best to make the classes fun by combining audio and visual material in my teaching. My field of study is Social and Cultural Anthropology.

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! 😊

Do you want to improve your English? Need to prepare for an upcoming IELTS or TOEFL test?

I have a lot of experience working both with kids and adults. I have helped many students get better at English
and improve their grade for an IELTS or TOEFL test.

I want to give my students the opportunity to speak as much as possible during our classes.

After a first lesson, where we'll find out your level and talk about what you want to improve, we will follow a personalized course plan that fits your needs.
Don't hesitate to contact me. See you soon!

This class can also be taught online through Skype or Zoom.

Language and culture are essential to connecting with others, and as someone who loves both, I’m excited to share my passion for teaching. In addition to being an artist, I’ve developed a strong interest in languages, which is why I’ve decided to take this passion further by teaching my native language, Spanish.

In my classes, I offer a personalized and engaging approach to help you learn Spanish effectively. Whether you're starting from scratch or looking to improve your skills, I teach from levels A0 to B2, focusing on grammar, vocabulary, and everyday expressions to help you communicate confidently with native speakers.

My goal is to ensure that each student learns at their own pace while encouraging you to speak from the very first lesson. I provide all necessary materials, including books, exercises, and audio resources.

The lessons can be taught in either English or Spanish, depending on your preference.

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions! I’m looking forward to meeting you and helping you discover the beauty of the Spanish language.

Online lessons is available too.

If you live in Flanders, you'll have to know Dutch.
That's why I am willing to help you.

I'm only 20 years old but I speak and I know Dutch very well because I studied economics and languages.

In my class we will have fun but also tests like every school.

I want to help you and see you improve in Dutch!

Hi, I'm Sofia, a 19-year-old university student. I grew up attending an international school where I used English daily in both academic and social settings. As a result, I speak English at a native level. Although I do not yet have formal tutoring experience, I'm motivated, patient and passionate about helping children/students improve their English skills. I'm flexible and happy to adapt to the student's needs - whether they want to focus on speaking, reading, listening, writing, or need help with homework. If a student prefers to practice speaking or reading only, that's perfectly fine. Parents and students are welcome to share their goals and preferences. I'm available every day until mid-September. From the end of September onwards, I will be back at university, so I'll mainly be available on weekends. My evening schedule during the week is still unknown, but this can be discussed later on.

- Do you want to learn how to pronounce words correctly and use them in sentences?
- Do you want to learn how to spell words correctly and write them in sentences?
- Do you want to be able to read and understand French and/or Dutch?
If your answer is 'yes' to one of those questions, you are in the right place.

At work, at home, at parties, and everywhere else, good communication is indispensable to be able to understand each other. A language is meant to be spoken and understood. The best way to understand a language is being exposed to it, whether through books, movies, songs or social media. In my classes, only motivation is required. During the first class, we explore your needs and what I can offer you. Outside and during my classes, you are your own teacher. The higher you expose yourself to the language, the quicker you'll master it. I am your coach who will guide you through it and give you some tools along with tips and tricks to master the basics. I am willing to help you as long as you need. If you want my help one hour for French and one hour for Dutch per week, or only 30 minutes/week for Dutch, that is up to you! Additionally, I offer group sessions of maximum 4 persons per session. It is your responsability to look for your classmates if that is something you are up to.

French (Intermediate & Support):
Whether you need to polish your pronunciation, expand your vocabulary, or proofread your essays, I am here to help. Coming from a French-speaking family, with a grandfather who was a French teacher, I place a special emphasis on oral expression and helping you feel natural and confident when speaking.

Dutch/English (Beginner Level):
Learning a new language should be an adventure, not a chore. I provide beginner-friendly lessons focused on essential conversation skills, correct pronunciation, and the foundational vocabulary needed to start speaking without fear.

This beginner Dutch course is designed for students who are new to the language and want to build a strong foundation in a clear, practical, and supportive way. You will learn essential vocabulary, basic grammar, pronunciation, and everyday expressions that help you communicate with confidence in real-life situations.

Throughout the course, you will practice introducing yourself, asking and answering simple questions, talking about family, work, food, travel, and daily routines. By the end of the course, you will be able to understand and use common Dutch phrases, form basic sentences, and take part in simple conversations.

Intermediate Dutch

This intermediate Dutch course is designed for students who already know the basics and want to become more fluent, accurate, and confident in speaking, listening, reading, and writing. You will expand your vocabulary, strengthen your grammar, and learn how to express yourself more naturally in a wide range of everyday and professional situations.

Throughout the course, you will practice longer conversations, improve your sentence structure, and develop a better understanding of spoken and written Dutch. You will learn how to discuss opinions, describe experiences, handle common real-life situations, and communicate more comfortably with native speakers.

If you want, I can also make these sound more professional, more casual, or more sales-focused for a course platform.
