Emmanuel
West Coast (California) English. Learn by playing! We walk, we talk, I correct! FUN! I know you speak English! I WILL FIX IT!
Hello! If you can understand this message without having to translate then you are ready for my help! I am from California, and have been living here in Brussels since 2012. I am 39 years old. I speak West Coast (California) English. It's the English you hear in your favorite California movies. I love to help friends who already speak "European street English" while HAVING FUN! Did you know that 70% of learning a language is learned OUTSIDE of a classroom setting? So I propose we go to the park, we cook together, we go on a bike ride, we draw, we play. And of course we will talk a lot. When I hear an error I will correct you in a fun way, writing things for you, with FUN AND REAL examples, with drawings, ALWAYS STAYING 100% in English. That's correct, I will only speak English to you, because as you and I both know, you already speak English, and you have understood everything (or maybe 70%) of everything I just wrote. What you want is to improve or perfect your spoken English (we can work on writing, too). Immersion and fun, West Coast Style. And my university degree? Yes, I have two of them, in Languages and Literatures, and I speak 4 fully fluent languages, but for now I want you to learn by HAVING FUN! My friends can tell you how fun it is to learn with me. HOPE WE GET TO PLAY TOGETHER SOON! You can do it! Groups ok.

Laura
English Conversation Adults, oral expression, grammar, vocabulary, English expressions
Bachelor in English/Spanish Translation, and holder of a CAP diploma (Certificate of Teaching Aptitudes) I give private English lessons for pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, style, etc. through conversation. I taught English to groups of children in private schools, teenagers in remediation, then adults in the French Community of Belgium for 15 years. Belgian-American, I am native. I have traveled to London many times to visit art galleries and concerts with friends. I have stayed in the USA a large number of times because my family on my father's side lives there and family is important to me. I provide teaching materials if necessary but a financial contribution for copies is required at the start of the course in addition to the amount of each lesson. I correct the errors by proposing one or more alternatives to the erroneous version but I do not cut the person off while they are speaking, I wait for the end of the sentence, the end of the paragraph, so as not to cut them off. fluidity. I also work by theme by providing copies with texts to read or grammar exercises to do, either at the moment or the next time. I give homework if it suits the student, otherwise, all the work is done in class, and the student reviews between sessions, for faster improvement in their level. We can also work on songs based on song lyrics. Texts based on press articles. It is necessary to be curious, to dare to ask questions, to dare to have a thirst for knowledge and a desire to learn, through trial and error. I use innovative methods. If I don't know how to answer a question, I write it down and answer it in the next class.

English Tutoring for improving conversation skills or creative writing
Originally from the UK, I have been working and travelling abroad for the last few years so I understand the difficulties and beauty of learning a new language. I enjoy working with conversation practice as well as more traditional methods of learning grammer - I believe it is important to adapt to each individual's needs and areas of interest in the process of helping them achieve their goals. I have worked as an English teacher to refugees as well as teaching dance and somatic movement practices online and in person. Currently I am based in Brussels but am happy to work online or come to you! In my own creative practice I work with poetry as well as performative spoken word, however I am happy to talk about a wide range of subjects with you. I will encourage you to read and discover new vocabulary at your own speed as well as in classes in a non-judgmental and fun atmosphere.

Fern
Native speaker English teacher at your service live or by zoom!
Hello there, my name is Fern. I was born and raised in Glasgow, Scotland where I have worked until today, after traveling and working in Asia and the Middle East in recent years. I have always given conversational practice lessons to students whose language I do not speak. Indeed, my mother tongue is English and I do not speak French or Dutch :) My method therefore involves a total immersion in the English language which will help you use the right tenses, the right formulas and idiomatic expressions and to perfect your fluency and your accent. I teach online or at my home in Ixelles. Looking forward to meeting you! See you soon.

Practice and improve your English effectively
Having followed an English training from kindergarten to high school, I want to share the bilingualism that was offered to me. Because English is linguistically a major tool and it opens many doors, I want to teach the student how to master it at best. To do this, a course divided into two equal parts, the first to learn grammar and vocabulary and the second to practice.

Jonah
Learn German or English with an ex-patrié
German-American offers its humble services to accompany you in learning its mother tongues, whether it's for exam success or just for the simple pleasure of better understanding the words of Goethe or Faulkner. Sharing my languages through common interests, such as music, theater or film, are my favorite ways to start learning. The learning approach is of course tailor-made, according to the desires, needs and abilities of the learner.

I hope that I got your interest, and if so, don't hesitate to ask any questions!

David
English conversation practice with a native speaker: improve your English through conversation
I am an American student living and studying in Brussels. My teaching methods are based largely on my own experiences studying French, German and Japanese, combined with careful consideration of the interests and learning style of the student. The primary and most important motivation in language learning is the desire to understand and take part in another culture. I therefore try to understand why my students would like to learn English, and what aspects of English-speaking culture interest them, whether it be films, literature, music, etc. Our lessons will be primarily conversations entirely in English (or as much as possible) with corrections when needed. Using your current English level and the kinds of mistakes you make as a guide, we can look at grammar, pronunciation, and other topics to improve your level. If desired, we can prepare topics and resources ahead of class time, such as articles, movies, books, etc. to give us a theme for the conversation.

Ioanna
International Primary Teacher that teaches Mathematics and English
Building math and English skills is very important in primary, as students learn the fundamental principles of both disciplines that will develop as the years progress. Having a one-to-one tutor, learning and practicing the core elements of math and language skills is essential. I personalize the teaching to each Student's needs and interests, including hands on tasks that make learning meaningful and fun at the same time!

Alejandra
Chinese (Mandarin) / English homework support / English conversations / English tutoring
I will be teaching Mandarin from the beginning and start explaining how it works. It does not have an alphabet, so be ready to enjoy a whole new different way of learning a language! You will learn pronouns, numbers, basic grammar, principal verbs, interrogation particles, time particles, and vocabulary, progressively. I will also be sending some exercises for you to practice what we have learned and have your character writing on point. ------------------ Would you like your children to have some help with their English homework? Or do you want to practice your spoken skills in English with someone? In any case, I will be happy to help! If there is anything you need, I’m always up for questions and clarifications! Do not worry about schedules. We can both be flexible whenever necessary. We don’t want to add up stress, but to have a good time discovering these amazing languages!

Make it fun! Experienced coach, creative & strategic approach allowing you to learn English as if you were in the UK.
Do you speak English but want to improve it? Do you speak a little and would like to become fluent? Are you a good parent who wants your children to master World Esperanto? Whatever your goal, I will create a tailor-made program for you. I adapt my method to each person taking into account their way of learning to achieve the best results. My teaching technique will make you understand a beautiful logic of this language. My examples, and a fun way in which I present them, will allow you to remember fixed words and expressions (the idioms). I won't let you go until I eliminate the pronunciation mistakes! If you are French speaking, there is often work to be done :) I am a big Anglophile, I studied in London, I am very attached to this country. We will listen to the BBC, read the FT, watch film clips, and learn to pronounce correctly. “Am French-speaking” is not an excuse for making pronunciation mistakes! I will pass on to you my love for this language and for British culture. Learning by speaking is always better. My method is "learning by doing": you will talk a lot!
