About Me

When it comes to language tutoring, the goals and learning experience of my students are the most important. It has no point if the students' learning outcomes are not reached, or that they find it hard to keep up with the learning because they lose motivations. Learning with me, you'll be able to learn in a way that suits you the most.
I'm enthusiastic about languages, sharing my knowledge in languages have been fruitful for me, and I hope you'll be able to enjoy your learning journey from my classes!

Incredibly intuitive, flexible and sharp tutor. Looking forward to continuing working together!
One of the fastest way to learn a language is to practice the speaking. In this class you will be focusing on how to talk about different topics in beginner or intermediate levels. Themes range from daily conversations, getting-around, travelling, lifestyle to news. Both formal or informal speaking skills will also be covered according to your needs. Aside from interactive conversations, a part of the class will be focusing on grammar and vocabulary improvements. Pronunciations and sentence structures will also be focused on. The content of the classes can also be tailored according to your learning goals and expectations. About me: started tutoring Japanese to children before entering college and worked in Japan for a short period of time. Currently working in a Japanese company. JLPT N1 Certificate (2018)

Learn Italian the fun way, with a native speaker :)
My name is Giustina, I am an Italian native speaker based in Amsterdam with a strong interest in psychology, culture and science. Over my career I had many students: my method is inspired to have fun while learning. I think this can be achieved by using power-point presentations, videos, conversation about topics you are more interested in. We can talk beforehand about what you expect and what are your goals and accordingly make your personal learning timeline. My education I studied Latin, Greek and Italian literature in high school. Afterwords I moved to science and I specialized in Medical Biotechnology and Oncology. I have a PhD in Biochemistry. I am now attending Psychology at VU University and improving my writing skills. Looking forward to meeting you!

Gwendolyn
Chinese (mandarin) lessons for adults and kids of all levels
I have been giving chinese lessons for more than 10 years. Before that, I was a radio broadcaster and a journalist in China, hence I have a perfect pronunciation of the official mandarin, without any accent. It provides my students the best conditions to learn chinese, as the tone you give to words when you speak chinese as a foreigner is of great importance if you want to be understood by natives. I have a strong working experience helping students preparing their HSK exam, I also often teach diplomats, to help them acquire the necessary skills and understand properly the vocabulary specific to their job. I also love to work with kids, as I was a mandarin teacher for 2 years in an international school in Singapore. I give them a playful learning environment and use fun learning methods, so even the youngest can stay focused!

"Online Turkish Lessons with a Guaranteed Speaking Practice with a Turkish Teacher 🤓 / Over 6 Years of Experience 👨‍💻 / Easy Learning Met
Hello, my name is Yunus. I'm Turkish and live in Izmir. I can't wait to learn Turkish with you.🤗 I love teaching Turkish. If you want, I would like to briefly tell you how we can learn Turkish.🤓 First, in our first lesson, we determine your level together📝 and start our lessons suitable for your level. Our lessons include reading📕, writing✏️, listening🧏🏽‍♀️, and speaking🗣️. I want you to read and translate reading passages in the reading section. Here, we write down and memorize the new words and verbs we learn.🧠 Then, after listening to a text related to our topic, I want you to explain in Turkish what you understood. Of course, understanding the texts might be a bit difficult at first, but we overcome this and learn together. 💪Then, we come to the most fun part, of course, the speaking part. In this part, we talk about the texts we have read and listened to before. Of course, we try to use new words and verbs more. I love people who talk a lot in my classes. It's not a problem even if it gives me a bit of a headache🤕😁 As long as you learn🙏❤️. And finally, I give you a writing assignment related to the topic and eagerly await our next lesson. Also, you can contact me anytime outside of class.📲 I look forward to having you in my class and getting to know you and learning Turkish together. Take care.👋🏾
