Listening, Understanding, and Writing Skills in French or English.

I tutor in French and English to a wide range of students, from beginners to more advanced students. The point for both classes is to give beginners a glimpse into the beauty of the language and to introduce them to the basics in an entertaining and enjoyable way. The ultimate objective of these classes would be to ensure that beginners, by the end of the lessons, have acquired fair understanding, listening, and writing skills. On the other hand, advanced students are expected to experience even further progress in such skills. It must be noted that I will try to give each lesson in the targeted language, privileging the latter as much as possible during the lesson so as to help the student dive into the language.

About Me

Dear prospective students,

I am a 22 years old law student at the University of Law in London. I have been told that I am a fun, not too boring and very enthusiastic tutor!

My main motivation behind teaching is to share knowledge with my students and to help them overcome the difficulties they may encounter whilst learning a language. I also believe that in order to successfully learn a language, one must completely immerse themselves into that language, and what a better way to do so than to communicate with fluent speakers!

Therefore, as a tutor, I try my best to communicate with my students only in the language they are learning (except when giving instructions). Further, I help my students dive into the culture of the language by making them discover shows, songs, and – depending on their levels – books! Throughout the lessons, my students will be assigned to fun and enjoyable homework in order to encourage them to practice the language as much as possible. As a tutor, I am very flexible and try to adjust my teaching method depending on what is more suitable for the student.

I am very much looking forward to working with you!

Education

After graduating with honours from the University College of Maastricht (UCM) in the Netherlands, I took the Graduate Diploma in Law in London this year, which I just completed with overall commendation.

Experience / Qualifications

Back in High School, I used to help my fellow students in multiple fields, such as French, English, Maths, and Dutch. I also used to give piano lessons.

We are happy with the first lesson, thank you Lina

She tried to get my speaking. And she corrected my wrong words.
Hello everyone, I am a 22 year old Belgian Female who recently moved to London in order to pursue my law studies. I completed my bachelor's degree at the University College Maastricht in the Netherlands, and has acquired a lot of tutoring experience over the past three years. Indeed, my studies, I've always wanted some of my lessons. My lessons are taught in a way to encourage my students to live the language they want to learn. I give considerable importance to improving one's verbal abilities, and my lessons are structured as follows: - Warm-up games (ie, vocabulary games). - Verbal Skills: Debate on any topic of the student's interest. - Writing Skills: Small essays to write following the debate (correction during the next class where attention is paid to grammar rules, etc.). Listening Skills: Analysis and translation of popular songs.

Send a message explaining your needs and Lina will reply soon:
The more detail, the better.
Ex. "Hi, when are you available to meet for a lesson?"

Hi! I am a 20 year old native English speaker from Australia. Currently I am undertaking a TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) certificate, therefore, I can offer constructed classes adapted to the students strengths and weakness, provide support and assistance in grasping complex English language concepts (ie. grammar, punctuation, spelling, writing) where help is needed, and provide feedback in work/assignments.

Maria
English tutoring by an enthusiastic translation student!
I provide tutoring and homework support for English. This does not only concern English grammar, spelling and vocabulary, but also reading comprehension, literature and translation theories. In my lessons I focus entirely on what you need help with. For example, if you would like extra explanation about things you run into, or would like guidance with homework or when preparing a paper, a book summary or a speaking assignment, I would be happy to help you with that! I keep the classes flexible. For example, these can always be canceled and they do not have to be scheduled with much time in advance. I want to keep my relationship with the student and parents personal, as I am only a student myself. Message me if you have any questions or would like to schedule an appointment and I'll hopefully see you soon!

Language lessons in English and/or French learners
Qualified Teacher in English As a Second Language. I have experience with a wide range of levels and ages, most importantly between 8 and 17 years old. Tutoring has provided me a particular insight of teaching English, where I adapt to the client's needs. If the needs is rather to learn day-to-day English or French, I rather practice through games, interactive activities and real-life examples. Most importantly, I priviledge conversation tasks.

Teaching is a passion of mine and I have experience in teaching English to adults as well as children from the age of 6. I am open to having the lessons online or in-person.

Barbara
English tutoring for young people from the Maastricht region
I can teach at the student's home or online via webcam. I don't have my study schedule yet, so we will agree the class hours privately. My name is Barbara, a student at Maastricht University and an English teacher. Our classes will be very diverse. As I am Polish and I study international law at Maastricht University, I will only teach in English. I will be using many different teaching methods; from reading some english stories, watching english short films to directing live scenes with me. I have some experience tutoring small children in Poland. Since I attended the IB (international baccalaureate) program in high school and I now study in English, I have sufficient English skills for the lessons. Sorry for the probably multiple errors in this Dutch description, I was translating the English version.

Alexander
French language, literature, philosophy, history, society and culture
bonjour, My name is Alexander and I am 33 years old. I'm Dutch, but I grew up in France all my life. In addition to my Baccalaureate (Mention bien), I also studied political science in Paris (Panthéon-Assas) for a year. In short, I know where the trouble lies as a Dutch person in learning French. In addition to a grammatical preparation, I also provide a cultural background. I can help with test preparations from school to university level. French education demands more than just language, but also rhetorical technique. I'd be happy to help you with that too! Feel free to contact us, and together we will develop your ideal lesson.
