Lie detection - reading emotions and seeing through lies
We have all said that we have been lied to sometimes... and we sometimes tell a white lie ourselves. Please note that there are no warnings and even those that you see in your computer information. Eleven courses are now available in the Emotion Detector! So I can't learn to play, but I also proved my debate and presentation technology course (a television course), communication, singing, improvisation, "physical acting", detection, hypnosis, management, or even more! The natural view on the gel: I go further, I will study the course, I go further. Register for one of several lessons, after which you can also take the entire course. "I'm not upset because you lied to me, I'm upset because I can't believe you from now on." Friedrich Nietzsche Learning to see through lies & emotions We've all been there: someone has lied to us in the past or hid the truth for so long that he or she has hurt or otherwise harmed us. So we know that the light is gone and we are talking about the corner, we know that we are going to see our colleagues who are on the eleventh of their reputation. Thanks to our lie in emotion detection course, you will learn to see much better when someone is lying to you... and what he or she might really be thinking. However, this course is much more than that: you learn to see and interpret emotions, often through small signals. Now we don't have all the Facial Action Coding System (FACS), the system that we used in the series 'Lie to Me', but we can also learn about it and it's possible to listen to it and listen to it in the intonation use. It is important that we test the lessons of someone like Professor Ekman - the man who invented FACS and the fiction series was renamed Lightman - and other techniques against the scientific evidence about what works and what does not. Neither detail nor system immerses even the universal in the same way it works. This means that we have new lessons in which we can learn more about our courses. From the study of the world to the emotions we have in mind, we have to take into account the growing theory of all the courses we have learned, but the words we have learned are very practical in nature and are the ones that have been studied in the past. Do I want to learn to recognize emotions very quickly and see what is going on behind someone's facade? Then be sure to register for your two courses!

Jinha

Sheryar
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.

Italian ↔ English conversation with chatty Italian living in Belgium
Want to impress your partner with newly discovered romantic Italian compliments? Want to showcase your wine knowledge to your in-laws during a family dinner? Want to be able to order a caffellatte macchiato con latte di soia without having your waiter scoff at you while traveling around Italy? Then starting a conversation with me will be your answer! I will guide you through the amenities of the Italian language, coming from someone who grew up with it. I am a Bioprocess Engineer, currently employed in Gent at an industrial biotech company. I studied and lived (mostly) in Italy until I was 20 years old, then I moved to Copenhagen to continue my education. I am an Italian native speaker, and I use English in my daily personal and working life. Talking to someone is the best way you can practice new languages. When I was a teenager I moved to Canada for six months to learn English, and even if I struggled at the beginning, pushing myself to have crooked conversation with friends was the perfect way to start mastering the language. We can talk about current topics, family, hobbies and the like. If you have specific requirements or interests, we can indeed explore those. Let me know, a presto!
