Speak (or improve) your Catalan from day one!
Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Learning a language is not just about learning its vocabulary and grammar.With a communication method adapted to you, my goal is to personalize the course to your needs in order to achieve your goals and be able to express yourself from day one.
The methodology I use is flexible (songs, translations, pure and specific grammar or
vocabulary games?), it depends on your preferences, interests and linguistic objectives (academic, professional, conversational: what is yours?).

Approaching from a true native's perspective, I instruct and assist with both educational and business English in a multi-faceted nature covering a wide range of areas including comprehension, conversation, grammar, and situational skills, in addition to working on general language skills and accent training. As well, I can provide extensive help and training with the EPSO, IELTS, and TOEFL exams.

Spanish teacher, I'll provide conversation, grammar and exams formationSpanish is always a great language to learn. Today if you love to travel, to know other cultures or meet new people, it's important to know lot of languages, and one of them must be Spanish. As a Spanish native I could teach you all the tricks you must know about the language and grammar, and I'm very dynamic so always we are going to mix conversations and grammar, because they're both have the same importance and are necessary to really learn a new language.
I also speak French, English and German, so if sometimes you have doubts or don't really know how to say some things, I can help you, because I can understand you, and we you know some languages it's easier to teach but also to learn. As I said before, learn a new language is always a good idea and a great opportunity, so don't doubt and talk to me if you're are interested. As I'm native, I can teach without any problem adult people, but I've been also a teacher with kids, so I change the level and the dynamics, but in general, I don't have any problem to teach everyone, the age is never an impediment to learn new things.

Benjamin
Improve your Academic Writing and Applications in EnglishHello there,
My name is Benjamin and I am a French art historian. My academic training in the English language started at the University of Toronto where I received a BA (summa cum laude) in History of Art and Philosophy. I also hold a Masters from the Courtauld Institute of Art in London in the history of Northern Renaissance art, and a Masters from KU Leuven in Philosophy. I am about to begin a PhD in History of Art and Ideas at the Warburg Institute in London. I am a native speaker/ reader in French.
This course is intended for the general student of the humanities, Arts, and Sciences who would like to improve or formalise their written English. This course is focused on academic contexts, and can be tailored to suit your learning needs and level (high school to post-graduate). I am also available to assist with your academic applications/ interview prep in English.
My main research interests are focused on pre-modern (1100-1600) European philosophy and art. I have a strong general reading in literary studies, cultural sciences, philosophy, and World History.
I am available to meet at a cafe in Brussels, your home, or over Zoom.
I look forward to helping you reach your academic goals!

Last year college student proposing English lessonsFor my classes, I am using multiple supports such as an English book, homemade exercices and my highschool textbook which I take the liberty to adapt depending on the student's level.
I usually work by chapters, as I find it easier to move on throughout the lesson. I also appreciate the structured program to keep the mind clear and actually see the progress.

French courses for foreigners (FLE) As a linguist, I never judge a speaker no matter how good or bad they are. I have every needed skill to help you to make your speaking closer to the standard French spoken in Belgium or France.
I continually adapt the teaching (phonetics, grammar, syntax, etc...) to the needs of the students.
According to your needs, we can work on speaking, writing, or both.

English course sessions for children aged between 5 and 15 years oldLearning English nowadays is essential and useful to anyone.
This is class done only in immersion.
I have been teaching English since the age of 16.
I design my lessons based on the student's interests and hobbies, changing themes every 1-2 weeks :)
My goal is to keep improving my student's English skills all by communicating in English (it is very important to be comfortable with the language).
I assign homework after every lesson but if this is not wished it can be changed!

Communication training (verbal or non-verbal)Verbal communication:
Have you always dreamed of becoming a great speaker? This training is for you!
During this training, you will learn the techniques to speak in front of an audience with ease and clarity, keeping your personality and without overplaying.
Non-verbal communication:
When we communicate, our non-verbal language can make up 70% of the message we spend. Our attitude and our actions are therefore essential for a good handover and understanding of our ideas.
During this training, we will teach you the most effective non-verbal communication techniques to improve your interpersonal relationships.
Maria Pilar
Spanish, learn Spanish culture and language.I propose a personalized and dynamic pedagogy to learn naturally. I give homework after each lesson and periodically provide progress reports. I also adapt to all levels. Indeed, thanks to my more than ten years of experience as a Spanish teacher (in public centers as individual courses) I know how to adapt to the particular needs of each student.
As for my qualifications, I studied Spanish Language Teacher for Foreigners (ELE) as well as advanced courses in "Didactics of Spaniard as a Foreign Language" at the University of Antonio de Nebrija, Madrid.

Writing and writing courses in literature and / or journalismMy Creative Writing Course:
Novelist awarded by the FWB in 2019, I also worked for a long time as a journalist for the daily press and Belgian magazine. From these professional experiences, I have drawn a large number of lessons and literary techniques that I intend to teach you. In the case of a literary project, remembering a certain number of simple advices - which can all be negated in the absolute - often helps to avoid a number of errors made by great beginners. A constructive dialogue on the structure of the story, the message that the author wishes to convey, the adequacy of the writing with the message, is likely to unblock certain situations.
Finally, a look, an outside opinion is always interesting, even if it should never impose itself as a truth.
In the journalistic writing that I have practiced for years (more than 400 articles and files published), the writing rules are much more strict and facilitate a more rigorous approach. In this case, I go directly to the correction of the student's texts or to the analysis of published articles.
Kevin
Non-academic Latin lessons. Multilingual teacher with 9 years of experience. Pronunciation, historical linguistics, conceptual semantics.Contrary to popular belief, learning Latin is not like learning the phone book by heart.
I offer you Latin lessons that are unlike any other. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches:
If you take the train back and forth every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options:
1) Learn the schedules by heart.
2) Note that the train arrives every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m.
In school pedagogy, in study notebooks and in ordinary courses, it is the first approach which is adopted - in the courses that I offer you, it is the second because it is more economical and faster.
My offer is aimed at both students and adults who want to learn the Latin language or deepen their knowledge without time-consuming detours through the insanities of school methods which do not produce results.
Learning is easy but unlearning what has become a bad habit is extremely difficult. All the more important it is to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. With my tailor-made teaching you will accelerate your learning in a positive state of mind.
I offer individual or group Latin lessons (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive sciences and in particular historical linguistics.
What will not be the subject of the course:
learn lists of verbs;
learn lists of nouns with their gender;
learn words with their translations;
memory card game;
doing school exercises;
follow the program in a notebook;
impose French grammar on the Latin language.
What matters to me in particular:
motivate my student and give him a learning rhythm;
encourage creativity;
make friends with language;
letters and their sounds
strengthen your memory by working on the phonological loop;
teach construction plans instead of having people learn sentences by heart;
explain how the language works to make my student independent as quickly as possible;
breaking preconceived ideas such as the gammatical gender would have a link with the biological gender, the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, the verbs would be irregular, the declension would be random and therefore to be learned with each verb... ;
place practice at the center and articulate grammar around practice.
In the context of a first course, you can get a well-founded idea of my pedagogy.
I look forward to meeting you.
