Over

As a MA Degree Writer with over five years of experience in creative and formal English and a TEFL Certificate, both in writing and speaking, I have developed strong skills regarding technique and organisation! My academic and professional experiences as a writer and sales employee have honed my ability to analyse, synthesise, and present complex information in a clear and engaging manner. If you are struggling with writing or organising a dissertation/essay, then I'll be glad to help you navigate through that challenge! I am fluent in Italian, French, English, Spanish, and am currently learning Japanese. I love to craft immersive worlds through creative projects such as poems and novels! So, if you are a fan of fantasy and science fiction, don't be shy to let out your geeky side! And if you are not, then I would be delighted to learn about your passion through engaging conversations and help you develop strong presentation skills!

Opleiding

I hold a European Baccalaureate and a Bachelor’s Degree in Writing and Literature, followed by two Master’s degrees — one in Novel Writing and another in Contemporary Creative Writing. My academic journey has shaped a deep understanding of storytelling, language, and literary analysis, allowing me to guide students in developing both their technical skills and creative expression with precision and passion.

Leservaring

I am also TEFL Level 5 certified and hold an IELTS score of 8.0. As a private tutor, I combine academic expertise with a passion for language and storytelling, helping students refine their writing, elevate their English skills, and express themselves with clarity and confidence.

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.

I am an associate teacher and I offer private tutoring lessons in French, at secondary level, at lower and higher levels. In particular, I master the preparation methods for the French baccalaureate.

Passionate about literature and languages in general, I taught French for four years. I have worked in the Belgian public and private school systems as well as in a prestigious private French high school (MLF - OSUI). Of a tolerant and open nature, I teach with respect for the plurality of opinions and the diversity of approaches. My successive experiences in secondary education, in Belgium then in Morocco, have taught me enormously about the need to adapt my teaching strategies to varied audiences, taking into account the particularities of each one.

So, whether it is a question of strengthening certain bases or additional support aimed at approaching the subject in another, more transversal way, in order to overcome certain obstacles, do not hesitate to contact me to find the formula that would suit you!

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?

Hi there! I'm Lynn, a languages and all culture-related enthusiast with a particularly keen interest in singing, storytelling and transdisciplinary art. Which in turn led me to be a freshly graduated Master-student in Performing Arts, with a Bachelor's degree in Modern Languages and Letters where I primarily studied English as well as Russian linguistics and literature, along with a Dutch minor.

These university years gave me the opportunity amongst others to learn more in-depth about the subjects I was most passionate about during my Art Humanities, i.e. performance studies, philosophy, art - and cultural history, as well as literary/critical analysis of various different artforms.

Brought up bilingual (French-Dutch) from earliest infancy, I very early came to realise the many possibilities and encounters this opened up, which encouraged me to continue down this path of language learning and intercultural communication. At first, I was incredibly fortunate to benefit from the work of a truly invested and passionate English teacher during the scope of my humanities and to acknowledge all of the difference that it makes when learning a foreign language. Subsequently, prior to my studies I got the chance to travel to Ireland for a year during which I mainly worked as an au pair. This not only took my English to the next level, but also sharpened my childcare skills and pedagogical abilities.

Now that I've completed my studies and am opening up a new chapter of my working-life, I'm very excited to put all of this baggage to work along with you!
I wholeheartedly believe in the power of play and sharing fun, artistic and/or meaningful activities which help put things into practice in order to learn a new language in a lively, profound and sustainable way.

So, what do you think? Care to invite me aboard your learning journey?~ ⛵🗺️✨

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!

Saludos,
Maria.

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!

Learn English and increase your vocabulary by having a casual conversation or learn in a more traditional setting with pronunciation exercises, grammar and writing skills.

It’s completely up to you!

At Kids with Naysa, we believe that every child has the potential to shine — sometimes they just need a little extra guidance to get there. Through fun, personalized, and supportive tutor lessons, we help kids grow in confidence, master school subjects, and discover their unique strengths.

Our lessons are ideal for primary school students and young teens who need one-on-one attention outside the classroom. We focus not only on academic improvement but also on mindset: learning how to ask questions, try again after mistakes, and enjoy the journey.

With creativity, care, and consistency, Kids with Naysa makes learning engaging and empowering. Sessions can take place in person (local area) or online for maximum flexibility.

Parents receive regular updates and tips to support their child’s growth, making it a true team effort.

French, Dutch, and English catch-up classes for all secondary and higher education students. Review and explanation of lessons not included in school. Mnemonic devices to better understand the material based on the student's profile. We do not all have the same abilities or aptitudes for subjects. Languages are often learned by heart and practice. Together, we will determine the method that will work best to facilitate language learning.

I'm trilingual and can help students learn French, Dutch, or English. They can also ask questions outside of class, and I'm flexible and accessible.
I was raised bilingual myself and I'm still young so I know how they learn languages at school.
