    Editing/Proofreading, Specialized Consultation on Academic/Business Writing, CV Prep
    I am a native American English speaking instructor, editor, and journalist from Florida specializing in editing, the drafting of articles, text correction, and proofreading for a wide range of professionals & students across Belgium and Europe. I have written, ghostwritten, edited, or proofread a variety of articles, academic papers, theses, applications, CVs, and other documents for numerous satisfied academic and professional clients. My main background is primarily political/policy based, with a career writing on Anti-Competition actions and law (for PaRR-Global), but in my career and profession I have dealt with a far-range of subject matters including the Medical, Academic, Financial, Scientific, and Political fields. My past & present clients have included: professionals from all four major EU institutions, the Belgian government, the UNHCR various NGOs, authors, novelists, journalists, engineers, as well as a variety of other professions in addition to traditional students.

    English for all levels / Beginners, intermediate, advanced, business, professional / Learning of English
    I present you meetings of learning English. Here you can start as beginners, intermediate, advanced or professionals. My course is for all levels. You will learn every step about communication, conversation, reading, listening, writing, comprehension and still other things... I'm waiting for your confirmation to start the meeting together.

    Russian Language A1 - C2 / Русский язык и литература
    Hi All, thank you for checking out my course. This class is open to students of all levels. Whether you are only starting to learn the wild-looking letters of the Cyrillic alphabet, or whether you are looking to practise your written and spoken Russian, I would be delighted to accompany you at any stage of your Russian-learning journey. For more advanced students, I would be happy to help you get to know one of the most defining aspects of the Russian language, namely its novels and poetry, which would be a great way to learn about the 'mysterious' Russian soul. I believe that studying in three different countries have allowed me to try out and assess various approaches to education in general and teaching languages in particular - from the rigourous Russian system based on ensuring that the students will obtain exceptional spelling, grammar, syntax and punctuation skills, to the more relaxed yet more critical and analytical Western approach, focused on problem-solving and independent work. You will get the benefit of a vast bank of techniques, methods and learning materials that I have developed and accumulated over the past year will be used in class to pique and maintain your interest. And since I was once a language student too, I would be able to share my personal tips and tricks with you to help you reach whatever goal you have set for yourself - be it being able to wow your friends and family by reciting a poem in the language of Dostoyevski, or impressing your future collegues with the thorough knowledge of Russian current affairs in their mother tongue!

I have a double degree in Law and Commerce from the University of Queensland in Australia and I am CELTA certified in teaching English to speakers of other languages. In 2021, I became certified as a Life Coach & Solution-Focused Coach. I have created tailored courses for people from all walks of life (such as doctors & lawyers, finance, film, sport, music and fashion industry workers, real estate agents, art directors, musicians and VIPs). I specialize in Legal English (collaborating with several law firms in Milan, also with judges & notaries) and Business English.

My passion is understanding my students interests and learning styles, working with them to create personalized programs to achieve their goals. My lessons are a canvas to fill with the student in the way they prefer: ranging from grammar to pronunciation to vertical themes such as preparation of CVs and interviews, successfully managing meetings in English and quickly improving understanding in business contexts (video conferences, foreign accents etc). I also provide English learners with accent modification & communication growth strategies. I am available to edit and proofread documents and websites as well.

    Santiago
    Virtual conversational Spanish classes for all levels - adults
    Hello, My name is Santiago and I am offering individual and personalized virtual Spanish classes to improve your oral and written communication. The main focus of my classes is on developing fluid and structured communication of the Spanish language, whether to prepare for international exams, to be able to communicate properly in the professional field or to reinforce and maintain previous knowledge of this language. I am a native Spanish speaker from Uruguay, I graduated from Florida Gulf Coast University in the US and studied communication arts for a year and a half in Thailand. While studying communication arts, I had several communication classes, I learned techniques on how to speak better using not only our words, but also our body to help us speak more naturally, calmly and without getting nervous if we blank out or forget. what we wanted to say. During my career in the United States, I constantly wrote essays for my classes, in addition to having to present projects in front of my teachers and classmates. At the same time, I was working at university and after graduating I worked for a year, mainly having long phone conversations with people from all over the country. In recent years I have gained invaluable experience living abroad communicating using my second language. Now, I help others looking to do the same. I help people from all over the world with their Spanish so they can achieve their goals. It could be studying abroad, living in a Spanish-speaking country, improving your communication in the professional field or continuing to practice so as not to lose your previously acquired level. If what you are looking for is to improve your knowledge of the Spanish language, I will help you. My methodology is simple. Each person is different and I adapt the content of my classes to the needs and interests of my students. We all learn in different ways and at different times, that is why I design my classes individually offering a no-obligation trial lesson to see the best way to achieve your goals.

    English as a foreign language, helping you to build confidence to use your skills
    Dear client, Since I decided to follow my passion in languages & people, which in turn led me on this incredible journey of teaching English as a foreign language, I have never looked back. As a young man I moved abroad with my family which put me in sometimes difficult situations until I was comfortable with the new language (Spanish). Therefore I know how it feels to be on the other side, to lack confidence, to not understand everything. This is why I have patience, allow my students to feel comfortable and instill them with the confidence to make mistakes as they go on their own journey learning a new language. In the last four years, I have been lucky enough to experience teaching students from all classes, backgrounds, ages and levels. Also, from modern classrooms to public schools & kindergartens, with either minimal or high tech materials. In the end, none of those things are important as long as the teacher possesses the confidence, energy, patience and flexibility to use whatever they have at their disposal to make a fun & engaging lesson for their students. This is why I believe I would be an asset to your company, after teaching in Vietnam & Spain I am now ready for my next challenge as I hope to settle in Berlin for some time to come.

    English, French lessons for all levels/Arabic for beginners
    I can help you improve your writing and get rid of the grammatical errors. I can also help you ameliorate your speaking as we can practice and discuss several different topics. In the French and English class, depending on your level, we can work on whichever area you wish to work on. I can also prepare lessons depending on what you’d like to do or if you do not have a specific plan in mind, I can create the schedule for the classes. In the Arabic class, I can help you with the more basic details and the tutoring would be more of an introduction to the language.
