It gives me satisfaction to see how my students grow and learn to master the language thanks to a tailor-made collaboration.

Teaching is something I do purely as a job because working with children makes me happy.

I specialise in tutoring English for European Union professional exams (e.g., AST - AD promotion exams and 'retour' interpretation exams), for other exams (SAT, GMAT, GRE, FCE, CAE, CPE, IELTS. TOEFL), for thesis submission, and for other professional work, particularly English for auditors, legal, financial and ambassadorial advisors, business people, project managers, salespeople, physicians, scientists, and academic students.

All courses are individually tailored to the student's needs and students are invited to supply their own materials from work. Courses usually focus on passing an exam or on achieving a sense being able to work comfortably in English with native or non-native English speakers.

I am a native American English speaking instructor, editor, journalist, and legal/policy expert from Florida specializing in instruction, interview and exam prep, consulting and text correction for a wide range of professionals & students across Belgium including in the legal, academic, policy, and other fields.

My past & present clients have included: professionals and politicians from all four major EU institutions, the Belgian government, the UNHCR, and various NGOs, alongside diplomats, doctors, journalists, and engineers, as well as a variety of other professions in addition to traditional students..I have had over 50+ repeat students on Apprentus (which recently changed their algorithm to only display the last six months).

Approaching from a true native's perspective, I instruct and assist with both educational and business English in a multi-faceted nature covering a wide range of areas including comprehension, conversation, grammar, and situational skills, in addition to working on general language skills and accent training. As well, I can provide extensive help and training with the EPSO, IELTS, and TOEFL exams.

I have also written, edited or proofread a variety of academic papers, theses, applications, CVs, and other documents for numerous satisfied academic and professional clients.

I have spent my entire childhood and adult life in the United States before completing a master's degree in Political Science and European Politics at KU Leuven. Additionally, I also possess Bachelor's degrees in Political Science and History. I have an extensive knowledge and experience of English grammar and literature, as well as current and past working experience in journalism (Anti-Competition Law and European Policy at the Policy and Regulatory Report) and both European and American politics.

I also handle correction of text, editing, proofreading and ghostwriting, with weekly and monthly rates possible. My transportation costs are included.

I have facilitated workshops and given classes throughout my career all over the world.

English pronunciation is essential these days because English is spoken everywhere and all the time.

I followed specialized training such as the verb tonal method, Feldenkrais or mental coaching.

We are therefore going to work in a slightly different way by combining articulatory techniques, movement, rhythm, intonation, warming up of the jaw and tongue, stretching of the neck, neck and shoulders to arrive to very fast results.

Since I believe that the learning environment is one of the keys to successful language learning, I endeavor to make students feel comfortable and content in my lessons: to ask questions if they are unsure and keep an easy but rewarding pace of learning.

Depending on how my students feel they learn English most effectively, I adapt my lessons to use materials that give them the best results possible. For instance, some students find the continuity of a coursebook effective, while others prefer to be more flexible with articles and podcasts. I know from experience that every student is unique.
verified badge
I adapt my lessons according to my student and what they wish to work on or explore further: grammar exercises, reading or pronunciation, listening comprehension.

Trained as a translator, I lived in Great Britain for seven years. I taught French as a foreign language at the University of Edinburgh. I also have several years of experience teaching English in Belgium.
I work on the 4 skills related to learning a language: reading, writing, listening, speaking.
Among other things: grammar review, vocabulary learning, conversation and pronunciation improvement.
My course materials come from several teaching methods, but I am also ready to create new lessons depending on my learner.
I am ready to come to my student's home but I can also adapt my video course given the current circumstances.

In the case of tutoring, I base my lessons on the subject seen by the student by explaining to him in another way with many examples and by making him practice as much as possible.

In case of learning the basics, I have set up my own totally interactive method so that the student can practice and during which I speak almost only in English to be close to immersion during the lessons.

Do not hesitate to contact me for:
- learn the basics
- prepare for a test
- have support for your lessons
- practice the language
- ...

Whatever your needs, I take a practical and fun approach to English because, in my opinion, it is the best way to learn.

The best way to learn a language is to practice it, listen to it and read it! This is why, as far as possible, the lessons will be given IN English, in order to train both your ear and to push you to answer/think in English.

A large part of the learning will go through the oral practice of the language: you will be invited to express yourself on various subjects that interest you.

Depending on your interests, we can practice English through different activities: cooking, music, cinema, etc.

Do not hesitate to call on me, if your objective is:
- To acquire a more fluent English / to converse
- Work on your pronunciation/accent
- To rework a written text / train your written expression
- Learn the basics of the language

I am used to working with children and can adapt to all audiences.
I also offer lessons for the little ones, for a fun initiation with games and small activities (cooking, crafts, walks, drawing, etc.).
I can also address an adult audience seeking to acquire fluent English, a developed vocabulary, and ease in specific contexts.
