General and Academic English taught by a Native Speaker and Editor

I am a native English speaker from USA and I specialize in teaching, exam preparation, instruction and text correction for several students and professionals residing in Belgium.

With experience in 4 different cities across Europe and Asia, I take a multidimensional approach to my classes, tutoring and assisting with both Academic and Business English, to ensure that all my students are at ease during the lessons which results in faster improvements and undeniable results. The lessons cover various topics, mainly focusing on comprehension, reading techniques, writing skills, grammar, vocabulary, and day to day conversation along with accent training and basic language skills.

My former clients include students from middle school, high school and college as well as professionals from various occupations. I have worked with them to improve their spoken and written English. I also tutor clients who want to improve their English at an academic level for exams such as the SAT, IELTs, EPSO and TOEFL. These include high school students, college students as well as professionals, ranging from engineers to young interns at the EU parliament. I assist with exam based preparation to achieve the desired results and my clients have not been disappointed so far.

I have further proofread, edited, written and improved a large amount of essays, college applications, theses, personal statements, and assignments for various clients at an academic level.

I like to make my lessons interesting, but at the same time, I make sure that they are as productive as possible. With a thorough understanding and experience of English grammar and literature, I further take care of ghost writing, proof reading and editing of academic and professional papers. Weekly and monthly rates are possible in this case.

I have no issues meeting anywhere in Brussels, or at a location or town close to the city.

About Me

I am a Native English teacher raised in Greensboro, North Carolina and I specialize in written as well as spoken English. I focus on providing quality English Lessons by employing various methods tailored specifically towards each student .

I firstly ensure that all my students are at ease during the lessons so that they are comfortable in improving their language skills and achieve better results. As a native speaker, I teach English at both a general and academic level, which gives me a thorough grasp on all the necessary grammar rules and vocabulary required.

My former clients include students from middle school, high school and college as well as professionals from various occupations. I have worked with them to improve their spoken and written English. I also tutor clients who want to improve their English at an academic level for exams such as the SAT, IELTs, EPSO and TOEFL. These include high school students, college students as well as professionals, ranging from engineers to young interns at the EU parliament. I assist with exam based preparation to achieve the desired results and my clients have not been disappointed so far.

I have further proofread, edited, written and improved a large amount of essays, college applications, theses, personal statements, and assignments for various clients at an academic level.

I have spent my entire childhood and teenage life in the United States before moving to Brussels. I have taught in 4 different cities, where English is not the native language. My experience has enabled me to have a better understanding of different student personalities and cultural backgrounds. I can, as a result, fully adjust each lesson based on the student's needs.

Education

Acquired certification in Professional Communication from North Carolina State University (NC State)

Educator-TEFL Certificate (Teaching English as a Foreign Language)

Experience / Qualifications

Over 5 years of experience teaching English at an academic and professional level, working with both adults and teenagers. I have taught in 4 different cities where English is not the first language, mainly Brussels, Amsterdam, Istanbul, and Ankara.

I was lucky to find Sheryar, not only I felt comfortable with him right away, but I also find his assistance with my English grammar incredibly accessible. If you want to improve your grammar, edit your texts or just improve your ability with the language, I sincerely recommend him
Good lessons! Very helpful for my SAT preparation.
I am a native English speaker from USA and I specialize in teaching, exam preparation, instruction and text correction for several students and professionals residing in Belgium. Having taken the SAT myself almost 7 years ago, I am well aware of the traps college board uses to trick inexperienced test takers. I teach specific tricks and techniques to improve the student's scores in both the reading and the mathematics sections of the SAT. I instruct the student on language and the literary concepts, grammar rules, reading techniques, analyzing, pacing, and skimming for the reading section. Instruction for the mathematics section includes problem-solving and key concepts related to geometry, algebra and number operations.
