    English tutoring and instruction (writing, reading & speaking)

    I was born and raised in the USA which means my native tongue is American English. I was a professional writer/blogger for 5 years in addition to currently being a graduate student in a natural science so my technical writing and grammar skills are well polished. I can assist in all sorts of areas - speaking, writing, reading, proofreading etc.

    About Me

    After graduating from Portland State University (Portland, OR, USA) with a Bachelor's degree in Applied Mathematics in March of 2018 I will now be working on an M.Sc. in Ecology.

    I have experience both with private tutoring and with teaching large groups of students. For the last three years I have taught and tutored everything from introductory secondary school mathematics to University level calculus and Ordinary Differential Equations.

    Being an older graduate student myself, my approach to teaching is unique and I often find ways of communicating well with student's that don't necessarily enjoy doing mathematics or science.

    I can make Math, Physics and the rest of science fun again! Not to mention I am open to working with students regarding English (and the speaking or writing or English).

    Education

    BSc in Applied Mathematics - Portland State University - 2018
    GPA: 3.30 - Courses include but aren't limited to: Calculus series, ODE's, PDE's, Linear Algebra, Fluid Dynamics, General Physics, Thermodynamics & General Chemistry

    MSc in Marine Ecology - VUB - 2020
    Modelling techniques, management styles etc.

    Experience / Qualifications

    Private Tutoring (Portland, OR, USA) - 3 years
    Teaching Assistant for General Astronomy course at Portland State - 1 year
    I graduated from Portland State University with a Bachelor's degree in Applied Mathematics before coming to KU Leuven to work on my Master's Degree (and eventually PhD) in Astronomy. I have tutored and taught mathematics up through ordinary differential equations but also at younger levels (like secondary or high school level mathematics). I've been tutoring/teaching for almost 3 years now and have worked with clients ranging from the University level to early secondary school work. I have a unique approach to mathematics and physics that allows me to work well with students who don't necessarily find mathematics and science enjoyable. My goal is to show everyone that mathematics and physics is doable for all! *Unfortunately I do not yet speak Dutch well enough to tutor thus I only tutor in English*
    Is English your second language? Or are you just struggling with your thesis, dissertation or other major projects that are written in English? I can help. It doesn't matter if English is your second language or if you grew up speaking it but want a set of well-trained eyes to look over you work for grammatical, technical and structure errors, I am here to help. I have published writing for various journalistic, creative and blog-type publications for almost 6 years now. Please do not hesitate to contact me with questions regarding your project. I am open to working on basically anything that needs to be written in English and helping you overcome your writer's block or writer's anxiety! *I cannot help with the content of the paper itself as that would cross legal boundaries of plagiarism thus please do not contact me if you are hoping for someone to help with content*

    Coach - Public Speaking // Public Speaking // Public Speaking
    ENGLISH BELOW Do you feel insecure when speaking in front of groups? Do you feel you could have more fun speaking in front of groups? Are you afraid that the content of what you say will be lost? Many people find it quite difficult to speak in front of groups. You may have heard the advice 'imagine everyone's in their underpants', but it didn't help (or you probably won't be reading this text). Maybe you don't find public speaking all that difficult or scary, but you think you can get a lot more out of it. I would like to help you become a better, more relaxed and open speaker. The coaching is completely tailored to your needs and needs, but we work, for example, on preparing, analyzing and/or writing a text, body posture and language, use of voice and empathy. I was trained as an actress and singer, two subjects that give me a lot of baggage and inspiration when coaching public speaking. I have more than 8 years of experience as a coach and teacher. /// I specialize in coaching individuals in how to present themselves on stage or before a group. My goal is to focus on your own specific goals and help you develop your skills. Whether you need to speak in public for work or school, or just want to get rid of stage fright before giving that wedding speech, I can help you better yourself and gain confidence! We work on different levels: analyzing and/or writing text, performing, body language and voice. I have a strong background in singing and acting and have been working as a teacher, coach and director for over years.

    Business English Lessons for Effective Business Communication (online/offline)
    Apart from general English language learning, this type of classes will focus more on English business vocabulary, business writing, business conversation and listening comprehension. This class would be suitable for people who plan (or already do) to study business/economics, want to enhance business skills for the business trips/clients, want to communicate and network effectively with international people in English. For this class I will use several books as materials (popular editions) dedicated to Business English growth. I will involve much conversational practice and discussion activities of specific topics. The material (books, texts, exercises) will be shared with a student. All the classes and preparation for them will be adapted to each student individually. Feel free to contact me for questions or book a time slot for a class.

    English for beginners and also children. A1, A2 and early B1 level.
    I currently work as a private language teacher in Belgium and I have a good level of English. As I am not a native speaker, I do not give advanced lessons. People from any age, including kids, can follow my English lessons for levels A1, A2 and B1.

    Academic and Colloquial English for All Levels and Admission Tests
    As the official Faculty Proofreader for the Institute of Philosophy at the KU Leuven, I have developed a deep understanding of the common struggles both professors and the wider student body face with respect to academic writing. Whether it be formal and linguistic errors or stylistic, structural, and argumentative issues, I gathered practical tools students can systematically employ to improve their academic writing—skills which coincide with the demands of a tutoring job. I’ve designed this course as the ultimate guide to academic writing, but that’s not it. Given my experience in debate clubs in Leuven, Brussels, and Munich, as well as in hosting highly successful discussion groups with students of all stripes, I can also teach you how to deliver fantastic presentations and get your point across in the most articulate manner. As a polyglot, I can give you examples in Arabic, Farsi, Urdu/Hindi, Punjabi, and German, so if you speak any of these languages, I’ll make sure you have an easier time learning English with me. With this course, I can teach a beginner how to speak English fluently but also creatively, I can teach an intermediate speaker how to take their language skills to the next level, and I can help an advanced English speaker sharpen their presentation skills and academic writing.

    Berta Bellsolà
    Teacher specialized in the linguistic area (Catalan, Spanish and English)
    During the course with me you will have the opportunity to learn this new language in an entertaining and motivating way. We are going to work both the field of reading, writing, pronunciation and comprehension together. I offer diverse and dynamic activities where I prioritize the participation of the student and the conversation between us. Being a native I can offer you the most concrete learning of verbiage in Spanish or Catalan and work on phonetics. I also offer English classes since I have the C1 English certificate (Cambridge School) and I have been in an English academy (Fun English School) during a course teaching English to children between 3 and 18 years old.

    Learn English: conversation skills, writing, grammar and syntax
    I am a Research Master’s student in Philosophy at the KU Leuven from Toronto Canada. My native language is English and I also have background knowledge of French, however, I don’t speak it well. I teach private English lessons in the Brussels and Leuven area. I have experience working with adults and children of all ages and backgrounds. My academic career has provided me with a high level of proficiency in English, including an understanding of language structure, syntax and grammar. I am especially competent in teaching: - Conversation skills - Grammar - Academic writing - Business English . I am available monday-friday as well as the weekends.

    Engels Taallessen voor alle niveaus: spreken, lezen, schrijven
    I obtained a BA degree in English Language and Literature, as well as an English MA degree in Social and Cultural Anthropology at KU Leuven. This academic background has laid the foundation for my theoretical knowledge of the English language, especially my reading and writing skills. Additionally, I spent a semester in Dublin in order to improve my 'hands-on' speaking skills. I have a genuine passion for the English language which I hope to pass on to my students. For my classes, I sit down with students to discuss their needs, and attune my course content accordingly. I try to combine theory with practice to keep the classes interesting and lively. Listening and reading skills are especially important in the learning process as they are essential elements to developing an intuitive sense of a language. Furthermore, I attempt to incorporate audiovisual material in order to keep the course content engaging. I am also always happy to discuss and/or lend English books, graphic novels, podcasts, films, music, YouTube clips etc with/to my students.

    Kevin
    Polyglot specialist with 9 years of experience. German in speed mode. Level A1 to C2. No school teaching.
    I offer you a German course that is not like the others. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches: If you travel back and forth by train every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options: 1) Memorise the timetable. 2) Realise that the train comes every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m. In school pedagogy, in textbooks and in normal lessons, the first approach is used - in the course I am offering you, it is the second approach because it is more economical and faster. My offer is aimed at both pupils and adults who want to learn the German language without time-consuming detours through the madness of fruitless school methods. Learning is easy, but unlearning things that have become bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, with my customised lessons you will greatly accelerate the learning process while having a positive attitude. I offer German lessons for individuals or groups (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive science and historical linguistics in particular. My modular programme can be adapted on a case-by-case basis. The converging point of these modules is your independence in spontaneous conversations in real life. What will not be covered in the course: learning lists of verbs; learning lists of nouns with articles; learning words with their translations; flashcards; doing school exercises; following the syllabus of a booklet; imposing the English grammar on the German language. What is particularly important to me: to motivate my student and to give him a learning rhythm; to encourage his creativity; to befriend him with the language; the letters and their sounds; to strengthen the memory by training the phonological loop; to teach blueprints instead of memorising sentences; to explain how the language works in order to make my student independent as quickly as possible; to eliminate common preconceptions, such as that 'der' would mean masculine and 'die' feminine, that the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, that verbs would be irregular, that declension would be random and therefore would have to be learnt with each verb...; to put practice at the centre and only deal with grammar where necessary. A first lesson will give you a sound idea of my pedagogy.
