Learning Hebrew with literature, politics and other cultural means

From 76 C$ /h

I'm an author with a background in comparative literature and philosophy, and have years of experience in teaching Hebrew — including students with learning differences, which I take seriously and adapt my teaching to.
No language is just a language — and Hebrew is no different. It's a cultural, political, and social space, and I teach it as one.
We'll start with the essentials: reading, basic vocabulary, and building a foundation you can actually use. As soon as you're ready, we'll bring in real Hebrew — news articles from Haaretz (I'll bring the subscription), literature in a genre of your choosing, or music, whatever pulls you in. The more confident you get, the more we'll use that material to talk, argue, and think in Hebrew.
This is for learners who want more than vocabulary lists — who want Hebrew as a way into a culture, not just a skill on a CV.

Hello everyone!

I'm offering french lessons for students of all levels (private lessons, tutoring, preparation for exams). I'm a former literary student (have a master's in French literature), I'm 24 and just arrived in Berlin. Last year, I studied and taught at Yale University in the US, where I finished my master's thesis. I have experience with students but also with children (I was a private teacher for elementary school children in 2014) as well as with adults (I gave integration lessons to Refugees in Paris, FLE, from 2015 to 2017).

I was born in Paris, did most of my studied there (before going to Italy and the US). In Paris I did my studies in La Sorbonne and l'École Normale Supérieure (ENS). I've always loved teaching and my experience as a private teacher, a lecturer, a tutor, really proved me that I want to become a professor. I've taught french literature as well as french language per se, and I enjoyed watching my students make quick progress in a lively atmosphere :)

I loved the bond I managed to create with all of them: a serious, yet friendly relationship. Of course, every student is different, and that's why every lesson has to be: I take particular care in adapting myself to the needs, characters and ambitions of my students.

See you soon !

Italian language can be hard to understand without the knowledge of our rich and beautiful culture. As a philosophy graduated I dedicated myself on studying Italian culture with a multifaceted approach, that is, through its manifestations in the world of art, literature, cinema and music.
With my class I can guarantee that you will not just learn Italian language, but also many aspects of our culture, with some cooking tips as well.
I am looking forward to share my Italian "zeitgeist" with you!

For the basic levels we start from the very first forms of conversation and speaking exercise, such as self presentation, describing an object or talking about one's hobbies or favourite book, with the grammar and vocabulary involved.

Once the student acquires a primary familiarity with the language, I ́d let the student keep training with more speaking exercises, first with communicative situations in which we come across daily like ordering something in a bar, asking for directions or organizing a weekend out ́til he/she ́ll able to express his/her opinion and to have pure and free conversation on various topics, such as nature, technology, the academic and working world, telling about his/her travels or even on actual world news.

On request I can even provide material on our funny dialectal forms, different from region to region :)

I am an Italian master student in general and comparative literature at the Free University of Berlin. I have been living in Berlin for three years and I have a Bachelor degree in Italian and German between the Universities of Florence and Bonn.

My teaching method is based on your needs. It can be in both English and German. Together we will find out which strategy is best for learning Italian, be it with the help of an interactive teaching method (e.g. excerpts from films, poems, newspaper articles and songs) or with traditional help with homework.

Hello everyone !

I'm offering french lessons and I want to help you to learn to write and speak french while talking, studying with grammar books, reading newspapers, books etc. I can adapt myself to your level. I have textbooks and french books with me that I can lend you after the course!
I also propose a course in french literature, which can be coupled with the french lesson if you wish. I have been studying literature and languages for four years, I also speak german fluetnly (C1). I'm looking forward to meeting you!

I give French lessons and suggest that you work on writing as well as speaking, finding the tools that suit you best and adapting to your level. I have grammar textbooks and many books in French for beginners that I can lend you. I also offer a support course in French literature which can go hand in hand with the language course if you wish. I am a master of Modern Languages and Letters and studied in preparatory literary class for three years, so I acquired a deep knowledge of the French language and literature. In addition, I studied German (level C1) and speak it fluently today, as well as English. I look forward to meeting you!

The diversity of the world is reflected in its states and peoples. Anyone who meets their representatives, for example while traveling, in the context of business contacts or as an emigrant, will sooner or later come across differences in behavior and experience.
My course helps to prepare oneself to cushion the "culture shock" and to get along successfully with the other culture (the people or society or their individual members) in the long term.
Through my many trips and professional practice, I was able to gain a lot of experience here, which I round off with my study knowledge and gladly pass on. The focus areas are Europe and Asia, but I can also mediate other regions.

Hello!!! I would be thrilled to have you for student. We offer Spanish and Italian lessons at a native level and always make sure to keep a high-quality learning. Do you need a last minute lesson to prepare you for an examination? Do you wish to improve your language level rapidly and efficiently? Are you moving soon to Spain or Italy ? Do you need to prepare yourself for an interview? Well, you have chosen the right teacher! :-) I can make you discover the Spanish/Italian culture through the lessons and make sure that you will be able to speak properly Spanish/Italian once in Spain/Italy (or who knows Brazil... ;-) ).

* Students taking their IB/ GCSEs/ A-Levels or other exams can be guaranteed to get the top grades (but you also need to do your homework and revise your notes ;-) ). I can also help students at the university in business, economics...

* Students who are willing to learn Spanish/Italian for fun, let's do it! I can make the lessons fun for you and we can talk about many subjects.

"Where did you learn that?" and "How can you know such a phrase?", - this questions you will hear from your russian speaking acquaitances soon after my lessons. And you'll answer them easily in russian.

Do you have a russian girlfriend and want to surprise her? Are you interested in exotic languages? Or maybe you like wonderful Soviet comedies?
Whatever the reason, I am here to help. I am a native russian speaker, but to tell you the truth, it is not enough, as Russian is quite a complicated language. Moreover, I am a linguist, a certified teacher and just a person, who always had perfect marks in the subject. It was always easy for me to understand the rules of russian grammar and to help my classmates, who sometimes struggled.
And you can be sure, that I'll be able to help you.
With me you'll understand and like the Russian language from the first lessons and soon will be able to speak better and better.

I will be happy to give you advice on what to read and to watch to see the beauty of this language and to learn some good expressions!

Don't be shy to write me and ask questions!

Learning a language is a challenge that requires practice and reflection on the language. My classes are designed from a communicative approach so that the knowledge acquired makes sense and is useful in the students' daily lives.

In the case of children, there will be a great playful component, since it is the infants' way of relating to the world, and therefore their way of learning. And in the case of adults, we talk to find out interests and preferences. Importance is also given to the link between artistic languages, which is why Hispanic literary works are occasionally read.

We always work with a base material, which although it is not necessary to buy, is made known to have as a reference.

It will be a pleasure to meet you and help you with learning this great language that is Spanish! See you!

Shalom!
My name is Hila, I'm from Tel Aviv, and I offer Hebrew lessons at home and online. I'm also a Hebrew author, and I published my first novel in 2022. I've been teaching Hebrew privately in Berlin and London for 14 years. I wrote the book "Hebrew for Everyone," which explores modern Hebrew from a feminist and queer perspective.
Are you interested in learning the fascinating Hebrew language? I teach vocabulary, grammar, and conversation for beginners and advanced learners. I also offer Ancient Hebrew lessons (preparation for the Hebraicum exam). I use proven, self-designed teaching materials for these lessons, so you don't need to buy a book.

My lessons focus on speaking. Grammar is important, but confidence is key!
Based on a repetition method, you'll be speaking like a native speaker in no time.
The lessons are divided into 3 sections. First we cover vocabulary, then everyday conversations, and finally practicing different time tenses.
