Life coaching - The road to a new and positive lifeAt a certain moment in your life you can feel restless in one or more areas of life. Professional, financial, private or emotional. Life coaching is aimed at self-development. You learn to make choices and you are encouraged to achieve results and actually achieve your goals.
Know that the key to success lies with you!
It is no longer a secret that we are all extremely busy and think that we no longer have time for ourselves, for some free time. Perhaps you have made choices in the past that no longer make you happy and that you remain attached to. It is therefore all so easy to keep wandering in our familiar life while you realize that there must be more. As a result, we are not feeling well in our skin. We all recognize ourselves sometimes in the sense of 'lack'. Sometimes we don't even know what we want, what we dream of. We know that there is more for us, but we cannot see it.
Life coaching ensures that you gain insight into your life again. Together we look for those insights, the causes and that new path. We work with all the potential you have towards that perfect life. The insight that you can take control of your life and finally change things. It's okay to dream and go after it.

Learn to play chess - tutorials on strategy and planningI have been playing chess since I was 6 years old, individually and for various chess teams, mostly in Greece. I have won the Thessaloniki tournament for ages under 15 and have met Kasparov and Karpov playing in the chess olympics in 1986! I love this game and I enjoy teaching new chess players!

Our classes will be structured around the learning goals you share with me during our first session. We will focus on the enhancement of your spoken skills, taking into account fluency, confidence and communication. On occasion, I may assign you learning homework in preparation for our next session. Commitment is key and you must be prepared to immerse yourself fully in the classes.

Living a Happy, Fulfilling, and Purposeful Life in a World Gone MadHi! Have a little chat with me if you feel lost, disappointed, or angry about life. I have been through these things myself (for many many years), but luckily, I have found ways to live a joyful and meaningful life! And no, this is not about any secret wise teaching or anything, it’s rather about noticing and enjoying the little things of life.
How we do this class: you can discuss anything you feel like, I will be listening and sharing my point of view (if you want it). The online meeting will last for 30 minutes (20 Euros). If you prefer, we can also communicate through texting.
Have a look at my profile, and if you think you will be comfortable with me, don’t hesitate to contact me! Have a nice day! : )

Buddhist Meditation Instruction - Learn to be exactly who you are.“Meditation doesn’t work!”
Has this thought ever crossed your mind?
Maybe you’ve tried meditation or even done some mindfulness exercises. Sure, they might have helped you relax, maybe encouraged you to take a deep breath or two (or more) and maybe you felt a bit better. But then you got sick and scared, or had a fight with your partner, or yelled at a stranger. And you thought, “Well, eff that. I’ve been meditating for days/months/years and I’m still a jerk. Meditation doesn't work.”
And you are right.
Meditation doesn’t work if what we are trying to do is bypass the difficulties and discomfort of being a human being. If you are trying to change who you are. Then meditation definitely doesn’t work.
But it does work if what you are seeking is to suffer less. Or at least to suffer well. And you don’t even need to be a Buddhist to explore Buddhist meditation.
I look forward to meditating with you. We can practice, then talk about practice and life. It’s kind of the same thing.

Mateus
Private English and Portuguese Tutor certified by EFSET (C2 - Proficient), focused in conversation.Communicative Methodology
The lessons are based on everyday situations that are relevant to the student's sociocultural reality.
The main focus is to learn the language in the context in which it is actually used, presenting situations such as at a restaurant, at home, or talking on the phone. In addition, it emphasizes communication between students in these situations, allowing them to exchange experiences.
For example, to work on past tense verbs, we can talk about what you did over the weekend. This way, the student applies the new language to their everyday situations. Reading and writing related to these everyday situations are also worked on, encouraging reflection and helping to solidify the content.
The method works for both beginner and advanced students. The lessons are naturally developed around practical topics, always focused on real-life subjects (based on the student’s reality).
Since we will be learning English or Portuguese through practical contexts, we won't waste time teaching grammar traditionally, which makes the lessons more dynamic and interactive.

I am Senegalese, Professor, Linguist and Specialist in the Wolof language. Learn and speak Wolof easily with me.My methodology is to base myself on the courses in a structural and clear way, accessible to my learners to give them quality teaching and a total understanding of the courses in a cordial and satisfying atmosphere.
My method is very simple, I start by teaching you the most common and most used words and expressions. Then slowly the formation of sentences, conjugation, grammar but also how to pronounce each word well and know their positions in the sentence.
Thanks to my very simple and effective teaching methodology, the student can form sentences in Wolof very easily from our first lesson.
Wolof is the most spoken language in Senegal, Gambia where it has been enriched with contributions from other dialects, Arabic and French, which remains the official language. It is experiencing cultural expansion in the country and is also present in Gambia and Mauritania.
So to facilitate your integration into Senegalese society; it is essential to use this language because it is the vernacular language although there are several beautiful local Senegalese languages but Wolof remains the most used language. This is why I offer myself to teach the beauty of this language which is my specialty and my mother tongue, I also teach Senegalese and Gambian culture and civilization.
Learning Wolof offers anyone who wishes to know Senegal, in a professional, cultural or tourist context, the opportunity to establish privileged contact with its population.
I would also like to inform my learners that apart from online courses, I organize language visits and tours in Senegal; for those who wish to travel to practice and discover Senegal with special packages.
DON'T HESITATE TO BOOK A COURSE DIRECTLY SO THAT I CAN EXPLAIN AND INTRODUCE YOU TO THE WOLOF LANGUAGE.
