Derek
English Language & Literature, and IB Exam Prep for All Ages
I specialise in English (British & American) tuition for native and non-native speakers of all ages, and have experience working with: • young children learning English for the first time • primary- and secondary-school students studying the English language and its literatures • adult professionals and seniors wishing to improve their language skills, or develop pronunciation or presentational skills I have two degrees in English language and literature (B.A. and Mst) from the University of Oxford, and I am also a graduate of the International Baccalaureate (I.B.) Diploma program. I've developed a creative approach in my sessions with students that involves applying a student's particular talents and interests (regardless of subject) in the process of language acquisition, along with the simultaneous development of critical skills like close and careful reading, argumentation, written style, and effective communication. I am versed in the requirements and intricacies of a range of national and international diploma programs. When working with students supplementing an academic syllabus, my goal is always to position them to succeed in the assignments and assessments laid out by a primary instructor.

Antonio
Italian professor, NATIVE and CELTA qualified, A-Levels, GCSE all levels
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! 😊

I used to teach music, English language, and Private International Law. I also studied master in International law, Bachelor of Laws and Bachelor of Librarian Science in Iran.

Society and the Political Economy: Law, War, History and Philosophy
Vincent Van Gogh once said something to the effect that greatness is a series of little things coming together, Emile Durkheim the great French sociologist first 'coined', "the whole is more than the sum of its parts" and Montesquieu conceived of laws in relation to climate. What do all of these have to do with each other? The fact that the interpretation and understanding of one of the realms of socio-political knowledge is not enough to either understand that single discipline of study whether it be Law, History, Political Science, Economics, Sociology or Philosophy- you cannot separate any from the whole and be able to understand the Short, Nasty,BrutishTM nature that reality is and that conditions human life. While my studies and work have nigh been exclusively related to Law, my interests which pushed me there were/are seemingly very different. Through my experience I may humbly submit that the the perspectives that each discipline approaches problems with are crucial in solving very distinct "linguistic" problems within their specific paradigms. They however are victims of dogma as is academia in general it would be fair to say. Living in the times we do, it is not only necessary as a basic informational issue but as an issue of responsible citizenry, young adults must be well educated about the political economy. Whether you're looking to study and/or are currently studying and/or want to learn about any of the aforementioned subjects whether in conjunction with current coursework and/or assignments, or if you're just interested and would like to learn about a specific period in time, this is for you.

English Literature and English Language Classes for Children/Students and Adults
I am an Oxford University graduate in English and French literature. I specialise in tutoring English language to all ages, and English literature to secondary school students looking to improve their literature grades. I am very friendly, patient and really enjoy teaching others.

Music history, art appreciation and aesthetics lessons
Why is classical music worth listening to? What is special about Bach or Mozart? Why can music touch us so profoundly? If you want some answers to these questions - but especially if you want to reflect on them, and expand your knowledge of music and art - then these lessons might be for you. For each student, I make a tailored lesson plan depending on their interests. This can be leaning more towards music history, towards a specific composer or time period that you like... everything is up for discussion!

Portuguese classes for all ages: Discover the language of Camões.
These classes aim at people who want to develop their Portugueses skills, both from scratch with some previous knowledge. The pedagogical structure is adaptable to the situation; school-aged children with Portuguese parent(s) who don't always have the time and opportunity to teach them, adults who need practical advice and relatively quick skill training because of a Portuguese-speaking partner, friend, traveling, etc... Students are always encouraged to develop their interest in the Portuguese language.

Nazlı
Turkish Language Lessons from a certified and 6+ years experienced teacher.
Hello dear all! Firstly, thank you for visiting my profile. My name is Nazlı. I am from Turkiye and I currently located in Istanbul. I am graduated from Arabic language teaching and also I am a native Turkish speaker and a certified Turkish language teacher for foreigners with more than 6 years experience. For me, teaching is not just a job but something I enjoy a lot that makes me smile, feel alive and keeps me improving constantly. As a student, I always loved diving into the sea of knowledge, experiencing new things, meeting new people and exploring new cultures. And I believe that teaching a foreign language gives both student and teacher all these beautiful experiences and also it is a great opportunity for improving both sides in knowledge and in personalities. As a curious social butterfly I am interested in any new information that includes new cultures, different practices and anything that touches a persons life and soul. Because every single new knowledge proves that we are sometimes different but a lot same. I believe that learning a new language is the most important bridge that connects different communities. My passion for teaching Turkish is also being a part of the bridge of unity and support my students in their learning journey in the best and most suitable way for their needs and aims. Already very nice to meet you all and can't wait to meet you in my lessons. :)
