English classes for all levels from A1 to C2, including homework, conversation, and writing.
Hi, I'm Spencer, an American who has lived in Spain since 2008. I have over 14 years of experience as a teacher and teach classes for all levels. I also coach students for grades A1 through C2. A class consists of 15-20 minutes of textbook grammar that I use or from your course, and the rest of the class is conversation, because for me, a language is meant to be used, not just studied. We don't just review your homework; if you want to write essays, that's also possible. Although I take my work very seriously, I always try to have a laugh with you, too, because learning a language doesn't have to be all that serious. Besides, learning a language can be a lot of fun. Each student has their own goals and I love helping you achieve them. Any questions you have you can contact me. Hope to see you soon! Cheers, Spencer

Dutch lessons for children
I teach Dutch to children, adapted to the level of the child, the age and the goals that wish to be achieved. The lessons can be given entirely in Dutch, or with explanations and translations in English where necessary (if the child speaks English). With young children I often use cheerful images, games and songs to learn the language in a playful way. From experience, this also works fine online, via video calls. If you send me a message, we can discuss the options together. Tambien puedo dar las clases con traducciones en español.

Lessons to teach Arabic to native and non-native speakers, teaching the Holy Quran with Tajweed.
We will learn the basics of the Arabic language from letters until we start reading to a high level. We also speak in classical Arabic to develop the skill of speaking Arabic using modern teaching strategies and methods. From the first class, the student can speak Arabic. I rely in my lessons on the Nooraniyah rule if the guardian wants to teach his son to read the Holy Quran, and also a special curriculum for the student who does not speak Arabic. If the guardian wishes to teach Arabic reading, writing, and grammar, praise be to God, we follow a group of books, at the top of which is Arabic in Your Hands, Basic Education, and Arabic Lessons, and there are other curricula from which you can choose what suits the student’s needs. In each class, we must practice the four language skills of listening, reading, writing and speaking, in an atmosphere of interaction between me and the student. I can help you with your Arabic and Quran requirements. I can explain the Quran to Arabic speaking students before they start memorizing. My life is full of courses, meetings and readings in this field so that I can be qualified to do so, so that I can help you and you can progress as well. I can give you advice away from the routine of work to achieve your self, succeed and be creative in your life through my experience and dealing with children. This field is not only for learning a language, but it also gives us the abilities and will to succeed in life. The language of the Qur’an, which God has honored, makes us read and memorize the Qur’an to understand God’s messages to us. We seek to learn to refine behavior and develop skills so that we may become a nation of readers, as our noble Messenger loved. I memorize the Qur’an by dictation first for those who do not read, then by spelling after giving a set of lessons to the student so that he can spell directly from the Qur’an.
