As you know, speaking English is essential — especially when you’re abroad and don’t speak the local language. Whether you're starting from the basics or want to improve your fluency, I’m here to help you every step of the way!

I am an experienced French teacher who also teaches English, Armenian, and Russian. In my lessons, I focus on grammar while placing a strong emphasis on speaking and building confidence in real communication.

I’m known for being very patient, kind, and supportive, always creating a positive environment where my students feel comfortable and motivated to learn.

Classes are online .
Let’s start your language journey together — I look forward to meeting you, my lovely students! 🌟

Have you ever been worried that your accent isn't good enough, or that you may be mispronouncing things, or you just want practice speaking? Well, I can help you out! As a native English speaker and near native Italian speaker, I can help you from the basics, to helping you correct university level papers, and to just sitting down and having a chat with you!
I have had past experience with tutoring and am flexible towards what my students want. If you're looking for someone to give you weekly homework, and to teach you grammar and vocabulary then I can do just that (with an entertaining, laidback feel to it). I don't want learning a language to feel like a chore, or a burden, therefore I put a lot of effort in making my classes interesting, new, and fun to ensure you take the most out of it.
If you would like to know more about who I am, or need any help in English and Italian I am ready to help!

My goal is to guide and help the students grasp a high level of understanding in the basics of English language skills, ESL, and Italian.
Moreover, I aim, with the students, to achieve a more advanced level for the students in speaking, reading, and understanding. I can assure flexibility in my lessons. If students find they already know something quite well, I will not dwell on such topics too long and will move on to other topics that are new to them, or of interest. My goal is to provide a focused session in which the student is really the center of attention, where all their needs are met.

Francophone having studied in Dutch-speaking education, I continued my studies in both languages. During my studies, I followed several internships abroad (UK, Malta) to perfect my English.

The first objective is to learn / review the basics of English with the student, grammar and a precise vocabulary.
It all depends on the objectives that the student has, I can prepare the appropriate lessons / materials

Bonjour, :)

Petite précision concernant les cours avant de me présenter :
--> Je pars à l'étranger pour mes études, donc je ne donnerai plus cours en présentiel de janvier 2024 jusqu'en juin 2024.
--> Je continue les cours en visio pour celles et ceux qui souhaitent prendre cours avec moi.

Voilà, passons au présentation maintenant :)
Je m'appelle Katia et je suis étudiante en langue à l'ULB. Je baigne dans les langues depuis petite. Mes parents sont portugais, donc je maîtrise parfaitement cette langue. J'ai également fait mes études jusqu'à l'université en néerlandais. Je parle aussi l'espagnol, le français et l'anglais. De plus, je fais partie d'une association sur Bruxelles qui aide des enfants à faire leurs devoirs. Je vois que grâce à mes explications, ils comprennent mieux leurs exercices, les parents sont ravis et moi aussi.

Depuis février 2023, je me suis inscrite sur Apprentus. Depuis, j'enseigne le néerlandais à des étudiants de tout âge.
J'ai des élèves en dernière année en secondaire comme des cadres qui veulent améliorer leur compréhension en néerlandais.

À chaque fin de cours, l'élève aura des devoirs si l'élève peut les faire avec son emploi du temps, sinon on le fera ensemble au prochain cours. Les devoirs que je donnerai sont importants, car je vois si l'élève a vraiment compris et s'il sait faire les exercices sans mon aide. Je vais au rythme de l'élève et je suis aussi ouverte à toutes propositions d'exercices de son choix.

Ce qui me passionne par-dessus tout, c'est de voir l'évolution de l'élève et que l'on me dise qu'on commence à adorer le néerlandais. :D

Bonjour,

Professeur expérimenté, je propose un accompagnement personnalisé pour les élèves du primaire au secondaire (collège et lycée), en les aidant à effectuer leurs devoirs et à assimiler leurs leçons, notamment en vue de la préparation des examens.

Mes cours mettent l’accent sur la lecture, la prononciation (en minimisant l’accent, en fonction de la langue maternelle de l'élève) et l’orthographe, des compétences essentielles pour progresser efficacement.

Fort de plus de 10 ans d’expérience en Belgique et au Maroc (notamment à Tanger et Marrakech), j’accompagne régulièrement les élèves dans leur parcours scolaire.

Les sessions se déroulent exclusivement en français, sans recours à d’autres langues, afin d’assurer un apprentissage optimal.

NB : Possibilité de cours en groupe pour des élèves d'une même classe, avec un tarif avantageux (max. 5 élèves).

- 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.

My lessons are fully personalized to your needs and level. Whether you are a complete beginner or want to refine advanced skills, I will adapt the content and pace to help you progress with confidence.
🔹 For school support: I explain grammar and vocabulary in a simple way, give practice exercises, and help with homework or exam preparation.
🔹 For professional needs: I can prepare you for interviews, presentations, or workplace communication (emails, meetings, negotiations).
🔹 For personal interest: If you want to travel, live abroad, or simply enjoy the language, we can focus on speaking and everyday conversation.
My teaching style is interactive, patient, and motivating. I combine conversation, reading, listening, and writing practice to make sure you gain both accuracy and fluency. Each lesson is tailored to your goals, and I provide feedback and extra resources so you can keep improving between classes.
Lessons are available online or in person (near the European Quarter, Brussels).
