English - Conversation & Education lessons for Basic, Intermediate and Advanced students

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Want to expand and improve your knowledge of the English language and gain more self-confidence? Which can! With my varied conversation lessons, alternating with reading, listening and short tests, we playfully build on better pronunciation and understanding. The lessons are adapted to your needs and we can certainly work on specific goals.
I have more than 40 years of experience with the English language, have lived in South West England for > 16 years and worked for many years in business in both the UK and the Netherlands. With a lot of hands-on experience with the language and internally improving the language use of international colleagues (Thailand, Philippines, Dutch, etc.), I now also have a TEFL/TESOL Teaching Certificate and have now focused on teaching.

I also enjoy teaching and tutoring in the Dutch language for non-native speakers and am happy to help you broaden your knowledge of not only the language but also Dutch customs and traditions.

About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I teach lessons that are varied in content and therefore certainly remain interesting; with a touch of humor here and there because that is certainly part of the English language. After having lived in various countries, including Portugal, France and the United Kingdom, I now live close to Alkmaar (NH). My knowledge of the English language in particular, but certainly also other languages, has always contributed to good contact with people locally and in the business world, as you always have 'added value'. Now I would also like to teach locally in people's homes and online. By being open to the knowledge, language and customs of other nationalities, I have enriched my life and I would like to pass on this inspiration to others.

Reviews (3)

I am very happy with Petra's lessons. She responds well to my wishes and what I want to work on, and she is also very understanding. Due to my health, I cannot always follow the lessons. I find it very valuable that Petra takes this into account and that I can then follow lessons at another time.

Petra has been great helping me gain confidence in Dutch and teaching me Dutch grammar. She prepares great lessons, with interesting material and is able to explain things in a calm and friendly manner. I am looking forward to continuing my studies with Petra.
Fun and educational!

Private French lessons for adults and teenagers with native French speaker in Co. Mayo
For the past two decades, I've had the privilege of tutoring in both French and English. My students have ranged in age, background, and origin, spanning children, teenagers, adults, professionals, and even seniors aged 85 and above. You might wonder why I teach both languages. Well, I am bilingual, with American and Swiss/French roots, and I currently reside in Ireland. This unique blend of experiences equips me with a strong and relevant teaching approach. I possess an intimate understanding of both cultures, enabling me to tailor my classes to the specific needs of my students. My teaching journey began during my time studying social work in French-speaking Switzerland. I started offering private French and English lessons to supplement my income, and I quickly discovered my passion for it. Even after graduating and embarking on a full-time career, I couldn't bear to give up this rewarding activity. I cherished the opportunity to connect with diverse individuals and assist them in achieving their language goals. In my teaching methodology, interactivity takes center stage. I employ a variety of engaging learning tools, including photos, newspaper articles, music, videos, and more. My approach is highly adaptable, with a focus on addressing each student's unique priorities. Some seek to refine their pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary, while others require assistance with presentations or speeches for school or work. Some simply aspire to acquire a new language to enrich their general knowledge. I also specialize in teaching younger children, a testament to my educational background and experience. What you will gain from my courses extends beyond impeccable pronunciation and enhanced vocabulary and grammar. You'll also acquire a profound understanding of the culture associated with each language. When speaking a language, it's essential to appreciate the lifestyle, traditions, and heritage of the nations where it thrives. French and English are spoken as primary languages in numerous countries worldwide, each with its own unique accent and cultural nuances. The learning process is limitless! In addition to my language instruction, I'm a genealogist and host spiritual (non-religious) seminars in the beautiful West of Ireland. My passion for vegetarian and vegan cuisine adds a flavorful dimension to my life. Furthermore, I hold a degree in Early Childhood Education and have operated a private "Before & Afterschool" facility along with Summer Camps catering to children aged 4 to 12 for many years. I am genuinely excited about the prospect of meeting and working with you!
