We can focus on a variety and a combination of competencies such as writing, reading, and speaking. Do you want to improve your vocabulary? Do you need to improve your business English? Do you need help with writing letters or reports? Do you want to brush up on your English before you take a nice vacation to the States? Or maybe you just want to sound more American. I will tailor lessons to your age, ability, needs, and wishes.

I will use a variety of tools including television, music, textbooks, phone apps, flash cards, games and more!

First we determine your current level, learning objectives and which materials we will use. Pleasure in learning and daring to communicate are paramount for me. I succeed in strengthening the self-confidence of my students.

The student may indicate whether the focus is on, for example:
- grammar;
- communication;
- speaking skills;
- listening skills
- writing skills;
- reading skills or eg.
- Spanish for the holidays;
- a self-made subject

For Spanish teachers:
Are you a Spanish teacher and can your Spanish use a boost? I would like to help you put the dots on the i.

English is a world language. You can go almost everywhere with English. That is why it is important that you have some command of English and that you can make yourself understood. And that is what I am for, helping people, young or old, to learn English or improve their English.

Method:

First I make an assessment of aptitude for, and existing knowledge of, English for each student.

During teaching I find the following elements important:
1. Creating a friendly and pleasant atmosphere in which the student starts to feel enthusiastic.
2. Discipline. This means that the course leader and the student (s) do what is expected of them.
3. From simple to complicated, tailored to the aptitude and experience of the student (s).
4. Practicing a lot and repeating previous lessons.
5. Structured work. This mainly means working on the grammar of English because grammar gives structure to a language.
6. Regular keys.

I specialize in tutoring English and German grammar as well as pronunciation. I keep track of a level of progress and make sure my students get their personalized material as well as the support they need from me. I assign homework if needed / requested and will make sure my students get a fitting program to increase their language level as efficiently as possible. I am a very talkative and open-minded person and enjoy tutoring, challenging and guiding people along their journey.

As a native English speaker with knowledge of various foreign languages and global issues in history and the political economy, I can provide English lessons to various learner levels and age groups in many different subjects. I received my master's degree in International Relations at Leiden University and worked in international diplomacy at the UN. Previously, I worked at universities in research administration and media companies. I have a TEFL degree and plenty of experience managing academic events and teaching. Additionally, I can provide any educational help needed in studying disciplines in the humanities – such as politics, economics, history, research analysis, writing, ethics and learning languages. I am more than happy to develop personalized lessons, courses, and learning strategies that you are looking for!

Altijd al Spaans willen leren in ongedwongen sfeer en in eigen tempo? Het kan nu! Welkom bij La Hispanista, waar iedereen die Spaans wil leren vanaf beginnersniveau maar geen groepscursus wil volgen welkom is.

Op een ongedwongen manier en in een tempo wat voor u geschikt is gaan we door de stof. Mijn cursussen Spaans zijn gericht op het snel aanleren van spreekvaardigheid en woordenschat, daarbij grammatica gebruikend als ondersteuning. U leert begroeten, de weg vragen, de getallen, bestellen in een restaurant, klokkijken en nog veel meer.

Privéles bij La hispanista is dé manier om op een leuke, persoonlijke manier les te krijgen waarbij u uw doelstellingen behaalt op efficiënte wijze.

Naast privélessen bied ik ook vakspecifiekere lessen aan. Dus moet u Spaans leren voor uw werk, kan ik in korte tijd een programma opzetten die u verder helpt op uw werk. Ook voor examentraining VMBO/havo/VWO ben je bij mij bij het goede adres.

Daarnaast heb ik ook ervaring met het lesgeven aan jonge kinderen. Dat kan nu al vanaf 7 jaar. De enige vereiste is dat uw kind kan lezen en schrijven. Dus als u uw kind naast Nederlands en Engels nog een taal aan wilt leren kan dat nu. Op deze manier geef je je kind een mooie voorsprong voor de middelbare school, waar Spaans tegenwoordig veelal onderwezen wordt.

Ook is het vanaf nu mogelijk om les te krijgen via Skype of iets dergelijks. Neem contact op voor meer informatie.

Would you like to learn Spanish or just practice the language again? Then you've come to the right place. My passion for Spain and the Spanish, mainly Andalusian, culture ensures that I am happy to help you on your way and ensure that you reach the level you want to achieve.
In the past I have lived in Seville and Granada and obtained the DELE C2 diploma at Instituto Cervantes so I know what it is like to learn the language and immerse yourself in the culture. I like to pay attention not only to the language, but also to my experiences with the Spanish culture.
