Do you love Italian people, history, and food and you would like to speak the language?
I am a CEDILS-certified Italian teacher born and raised in Florence, and I've also been a language student myself for a long time! If you want to be able to interact with Italians quickly, I can give you some tips about correct pronunciation, fundamental grammar, and vocabulary, but also Italian art and popular culture, which I think is fundamental to understanding the mentality and the country that you are going to interact with.
Lessons will be tailored according to the student's needs, level, and mother language and focused on the conversation.

I am also available to proofread your writings.

Chinese is one of the most spoken languages in the world. There are 1.39 billion Chinese speakers in mainland China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau, Singapore, and worldwide Chinese communities, with 1 million new learners each year. Learning Chinese has become increasingly important these years due to China's economic growth and expansion of the Chinese market, which could create more business opportunities. Also, Chinese is a beautiful and necessary language for Chinese culture enjoyers to understand Chinese culture through the letters and patterns in the Chinese Language.

This class aims to teach Chinese to A1 to B1 level learners. Practice papers will be provided accordingly to teach the students effectively. We will start by learning the pinyin (romanization of Chinese vowels and alphabet), then identify Chinese words, form simple phrases, learn new vocabulary, use grammatical tenses, and learn simple literary devices to form more complex sentences.

Hello! My name is Haixin, and I am a professional Chinese language teacher with over ten years of teaching experience. I run my own teaching practice (KVK registered) and currently give most lessons at students’ homes.

I specialize in teaching complete beginners, guiding them step by step with patience, structure, and a lot of encouragement. My lessons focus on practical Mandarin (listening, speaking, reading, writing), and I also introduce cultural elements such as Chinese festivals, traditions, and even hands-on workshops (for example, Chinese calligraphy or crafts).

For Dutch-speaking students, I use bilingual Chinese-Dutch teaching materials. This makes it much easier to follow the lessons, build confidence, and enjoy the process of learning a new language.

Whether you are a student, a professional, or simply curious about Chinese culture, I would be happy to help you achieve your goals.

📍 Lessons: usually at students’ homes (Amstelveen/Amsterdam region), but online lessons are also possible.
👩‍🏫 Experience: Teaching in the Netherlands & volunteering in Sri Lanka (cross-cultural experience).
🌱 Suitable for: complete beginners, school support, adults, or anyone who wants to start learning Mandarin in a structured and engaging way.

Feel free to contact me for lessons—I look forward to meeting you!

Hello! 👋

My name is Rafael and I’m from Portugal! :)

I would love to help you on this adventure of learning the Portuguese language.
I’m fluent in teaching both bacalhau Portuguese and caipirinha Portuguese (PT & BR). I’m deeply involved with both cultures.

My classes are tailored to meet the needs of my students. I have the experience and skills to offer conversation lessons and/or more structured classes focused on grammar.
Whatever your reason for seeking Portuguese lessons, I’m here to listen and help you in any way I can.

FYI: I’m also a musician, so we can chat a lot about music or even incorporate it into our Portuguese lessons. Have you ever wanted to analyze the lyrics of Bossa Nova or Fado? If you love Brazilian or Portuguese music, we can definitely use it as class material.

I have been teaching at the Una Paloma Blanca language school in Rotterdam since 2020.

Here, I had the chance to really develop my teaching craft, working with many different students, each with their own needs and reasons for learning Portuguese. I had the opportunity to teach both European and Brazilian Portuguese to individual and group classes.

In addition to this work, I also provided private lessons to some students who needed preparation before moving to Brazil or Portugal.

In my classes, we set personal goals, and I help you with all the knowledge and experience I have.

My lessons are balanced with a good amount of conversation practice, grammar and exercises.

So, you want to learn Portuguese, but you’re still not sure if I’m the right person to help?

I would be delighted to do a lesson so we can introduce ourselves and discuss how I can assist you!

Let me show you how I can be a fun and efficient Portuguese tutor! :)

Thank you for your attention, and I hope to see you in class!

I have been teaching Chinese for about 10 years, and over this time I’ve built a rich collection of teaching materials — including modern textbooks, interactive exercises and authentic texts adapted to different levels.
In my lessons, I pay great attention to phonetics, since Chinese is a tonal language that differs greatly from European ones. Correct pronunciation at the early stage helps students build a strong foundation for confident speaking later on.
My teaching style focuses on active communication — I encourage my students to speak as much as possible, even from the first lessons. We practice real-life dialogues, listening comprehension, and vocabulary expansion in a natural way.
I work with both children (through interactive and playful lessons) and adults, helping them achieve their goals — whether it’s travel, daily communication, or professional fluency.
I would be delighted to share my knowledge and help students achieve confidence and success in learning Chinese!
I hope to see you on my lessons!

Why learn with me? I am currently a graduate student at TU Delft with extensive tutoring experience. I hold the Advanced Certificate in Putonghua (Standard Mandarin). Beyond academics, I work as a professional screenwriter, which gives me a deep and precise understanding of the Chinese language, storytelling, and rhetoric.

What I offer:
All Levels Welcome: Whether you are a complete beginner or an advanced learner looking to polish your business or literary Chinese, I can guide you.
Cultural Immersion: Language is the key to culture. I love introducing students to Chinese history, trends, and traditions.

My goal is to help you not just speak, but truly understand the nuance and beauty of the language.
