Native New Yorker and fluent english speaker offering English lessons
I grew up in the United States and completed my studies in the US as well. I have taught English to people of all ages and skill levels.
I like to focus on communication and verbal expression from the very beginning, as I have found speaking is the quickest way to learn. I then incorporate small readings, like short news articles, so that the most useful and necessary parts of the language are learned first.

Annelise
Native English teacher for children and teenagers.I've been teaching English to small children up to teenagers at École Française Internationale. I give lessons for beginners and intermediate levels. I mix between French and English so the pupil doesn't get too confused, but also allows them to understand every detail.
For beginners, we usually talk about our surroundings, what's close to us and what affects us on a daily basis. (Numbers, directions, the weather, asking simple questions, what's a noun and pronoun and where to put them in a sentence). I like to find playful activities so that the pupil/student is in control of their work. It also stimulates their motivation.
Of course, this is an example for a certain age group, but it also varies depending on their knowledge and their age.
For intermediates, we make basic conversation. Ex: How do you go to school; What do you do in your free time? ; What's the weather like?
The lessons depend on whether the student is learning for their personal knowledge or if it's for school.
--------------------------------
The start of the course with a new learner consists of detecting their level by talking about their background, what they already know, what they must master in order to no longer have any gaps. The first lesson also allows the learner to get comfortable and get to know me to establish mutual trust. That’s why I use a touch of my British humor to achieve this. (I generally do this at the start of the lesson with my students to establish a good mood and they are always delighted!) To help the learner better engage with the learning, I will ask them what their passions/hobbies are, this who interests him to arouse interest in learning. I will adapt my lessons on subjects that speak to him more.
Depending on age and level of knowledge of English, the method will vary. I play with songs if it's for vocabulary or accent, it helps me memorize better and what's better in song... Everyone listens to music!
No matter the reason for the course, if it is to improve oral, written, reading or listening comprehension, I organize audio sessions, readings, everything necessary to deepen the language using the active pedagogy that I learned during my CAP training. I can play the news from the BBC news channel, the weather forecast, the trailer for a film. My goal is for the learner to evolve gradually with as few gaps as possible.
Corinne
English: pronunciation (British or American). No grammar lessons. Adults only.I have facilitated workshops and given classes throughout my career all over the world.
English pronunciation is essential these days because English is spoken everywhere and all the time.
I followed specialized training such as the verb tonal method, Feldenkrais or mental coaching.
We are therefore going to work in a slightly different way by combining articulatory techniques, movement, rhythm, intonation, warming up of the jaw and tongue, stretching of the neck, neck and shoulders to arrive to very fast results.

English - learn by doing (from perfecting the language to teaching the basics to upgrading)In the case of tutoring, I base my lessons on the subject seen by the student by explaining to him in another way with many examples and by making him practice as much as possible.
In case of learning the basics, I have set up my own totally interactive method so that the student can practice and during which I speak almost only in English to be close to immersion during the lessons.
Do not hesitate to contact me for:
- learn the basics
- prepare for a test
- have support for your lessons
- practice the language
- ...
Whatever your needs, I take a practical and fun approach to English because, in my opinion, it is the best way to learn.

English lessons for beginners and advanced by webcamHey you! Do you want to learn English or improve it? You are in the right place!
English is one of the most common and useful languages in the world, whether for work, travelling, watching series in original version, understanding your favorite American or English star...
What? An English course for both beginners and advanced, both for children and adults... we discover the basics of the language, grammar and useful vocabulary in a fun way, or we deepen these knowledge, with some revisions if necessary. Obviously, we will tackle all skills: reading, writing, speaking and hearing.
Who? I'm Julie, a fan of languages, I've already mastered almost four, and I always want to discover new ones. English has (almost) no more secrets for me. I'm also a photographer and a photography teacher on the side, so I have a background in building lessons with lots of practice.
How? For one to two hours (two hours recommended to progress more efficiently), I always prepare my lessons specially and in an up-to-date way, using recent articles, relevant and useful vocabulary on a daily basis. Classes are currently only taking place online, as I am not in Belgium.
When? Well, whenever you want! As soon as possible, to improve your English tomorrow!
So what are you waiting for?
Serdane
English courses for high school students or adultsMy name is Serdane and I offer English lessons to high school students and adults who find it difficult to develop a way of working that suits them. Extroverted and bubbly... and above all, full of humor!
I believe that language learning is based above all on the development of an appropriate learning method. Some learn languages intuitively by engaging in conversations. Others, on the contrary, need rigorous exposure to grammatical concepts before launching into conversations. There are as many ways to learn as there are students... That's why I adapt my lessons to everyone's needs, and above all, I try to help each student discover what works for him, so that he can continue to progress independently.
My areas of expertise:
- Enhancement
- catching up
- Grammar reviews
- Conversation course
- Work method (organization, schedule of revisions, etc.)
My price includes complete academic support (private lessons, the possibility of asking questions outside of class hours, writing and correcting questions, etc.).
I produce all of my course materials for each student. So there is no need for you to buy a learning book. However, if you are already working from a book, it is entirely possible for me to adapt to it.
Nice to meet you! :-)

Homework help for primary and secondary schools, Help with exam preparationI offer my services to help your children achieve their academic goals, whether it is for the little ones who are discovering reading and writing, or for teenagers in the middle of preparing for exams. I also have experience with university students who needed a helping hand in certain subjects.
Patient and attentive, I adapt to the specific needs of each student, offering them personalized support to help them progress at their own pace and with confidence.
In terms of education, I followed a Preparatory Class for the Grandes Écoles in France (literature, philosophy, history, geography and languages), and obtained a bachelor's degree in English Language, Literature and Civilization. I then continued with a master's degree in British and American translation and civilization. I had the chance to work for two years at the Lycée Français Jean Monnet in Brussels, where I acquired solid experience with students of all ages and a good understanding of the expectations of the school system.
I would be happy to discuss this with you and see how I can contribute to its success.

Feel stuck? Let's take your English to the next levelSince I believe that the learning environment is one of the keys to successful language learning, I endeavor to make students feel comfortable and content in my lessons: to ask questions if they are unsure and keep an easy but rewarding pace of learning.
Depending on how my students feel they learn English most effectively, I adapt my lessons to use materials that give them the best results possible. For instance, some students find the continuity of a coursebook effective, while others prefer to be more flexible with articles and podcasts. I know from experience that every student is unique.
Elisa
Homework help and French-English-German-Italian-Spanish language lessonsI have supported a large number of students with homework help (all branches combined) as well as with language lessons. Having also worked for several years as a school substitute, I have accumulated experience and am familiar with the requirements required in class.
Polyglot, I master French, English, German, Spanish and Italian and am able to explain the grammar, as well as to propose nice exercises to learn these languages.
I think it's important to keep a relaxed and playful atmosphere during the lessons :-)
Do not hesitate to contact me if you want more information.

English Tutoring for Comfort at Work and to Pass ExamsI specialise in tutoring English for European Union professional exams (e.g., AST - AD promotion exams and 'retour' interpretation exams), for other exams (SAT, GMAT, GRE, FCE, CAE, CPE, IELTS. TOEFL), for thesis submission, and for other professional work, particularly English for auditors, legal, financial and ambassadorial advisors, business people, project managers, salespeople, physicians, scientists, and academic students.
All courses are individually tailored to the student's needs and students are invited to supply their own materials from work. Courses usually focus on passing an exam or on achieving a sense being able to work comfortably in English with native or non-native English speakers.
Eléa
English courses for all levels, for children and adultsHello,
Let me introduce myself, my name is Eléa, I am 27 years old and have a master's degree in biology, specializing in ecology and biodiversity.
I teach English here for anyone who wants to learn or improve their level.
I speak fluent English, in addition to having obtained a C1 in IELTS, I studied my master's degree in English. I also lived for 6 months in South Africa, working in a South African association.
Regarding the course of my classes, everyone learns best in their own way and it is therefore important for me to know each student to know which method(s) to use during our classes (auditory, visual and/or kinesthetic learning). But also to know what the level of the student is to be able to adapt my classes to each one.
I think that the methods used at school are not necessarily the most fun and I think that the films, series and books that we like are more interesting to study in order to improve.
I therefore propose to learn or improve your level in oral and/or written comprehension,
using what interests you. Do you like reading Harry Potter, watching Star Wars for the 30th time, or do you want to finally understand the lyrics to that song you love so much? Well, that's what we'll use to help you learn without feeling like you're working.
Regarding oral expression, each session will be on a different subject, which can be chosen in advance depending on what the student wishes to improve.
If you are interested in my profile, do not hesitate to contact me,
