Native New Yorker and fluent english speaker offering English lessons

From 47.97 C$ /h

I grew up in the United States and completed my studies in the US as well. I have taught English to people of all ages and skill levels.
I like to focus on communication and verbal expression from the very beginning, as I have found speaking is the quickest way to learn. I then incorporate small readings, like short news articles, so that the most useful and necessary parts of the language are learned first.

My name is Serdane and I offer English lessons to high school students and adults who find it difficult to develop a way of working that suits them. Extroverted and bubbly... and above all, full of humor!

I believe that language learning is based above all on the development of an appropriate learning method. Some learn languages intuitively by engaging in conversations. Others, on the contrary, need rigorous exposure to grammatical concepts before launching into conversations. There are as many ways to learn as there are students... That's why I adapt my lessons to everyone's needs, and above all, I try to help each student discover what works for him, so that he can continue to progress independently.

My areas of expertise:
- Enhancement
- catching up
- Grammar reviews
- Conversation course
- Work method (organization, schedule of revisions, etc.)

My price includes complete academic support (private lessons, the possibility of asking questions outside of class hours, writing and correcting questions, etc.).

I produce all of my course materials for each student. So there is no need for you to buy a learning book. However, if you are already working from a book, it is entirely possible for me to adapt to it.

Nice to meet you! :-)

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.

Method adapted to the needs of the student. Different "tools" will be used (videos, exercises, scenarios ...). The emphasis will be on practice and orality (importance of the accent to express yourself well and be understood).
I guarantee we shall have a jolly good time!

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.

Patient and attentive, I adapt to the specific needs of each student, offering them personalized support to help them progress at their own pace and with confidence.
In terms of education, I followed a Preparatory Class for the Grandes Écoles in France (literature, philosophy, history, geography and languages), and obtained a bachelor's degree in English Language, Literature and Civilization.

I had the chance to work for two years at the Lycée Français Jean Monnet in Brussels, where I acquired solid experience with students of all ages and a good understanding of the expectations of the school system.
I would be happy to discuss this with you and see how I can contribute to its success.

The course module is tailored to the student's needs.

A program overview will be presented during the first class.

I will guide you in developing your written and/or oral communication skills, adopting an approach grounded in the science of political communication, international relations, and the social sciences and humanities.

The goal is to teach you how to structure a clear, impactful, and persuasive message, while mastering various persuasion and negotiation techniques.

▪️ Political communication involves the creation and exchange of ideas and opinions among citizens, political leaders, public institutions, and related stakeholders, such as the media. It encompasses all discourse throughout the political process at the local, regional, national, and international levels, as well as how political information can be used for strategic purposes or to achieve political objectives. Those trained in political communication can work in fields such as diplomacy, public and private policy consulting, public relations, journalism, media and digital campaigns, market research, community organizing, lobbying, and other related sectors.

▪️ The techniques taught will allow you to gain confidence in both public speaking and the development of your strategic speeches and narratives.

▪️ But above all, to achieve your goals, it is essential to master the art of public speaking, that is, the ability to express yourself clearly and effectively before an audience. This generally refers to a formal, face-to-face speech in which a speaker addresses a group of people.

▪️ At the student's request, the course can also incorporate skills in marketing, promotion, digital optimization, and SEO, allowing you to acquire:
- An integrated digital marketing strategy, adapted to the context and objectives of your organization;
- The skills necessary to analyze and leverage data in order to make informed, strategic, and innovative decisions;
- A forward-looking vision of marketing, including the use of new digital channels and technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI) and chatbots; and
- The ability to anticipate challenges and seize opportunities offered by disruptive technologies in your digital marketing strategy.

My English classes are tailored to each student's level, goals, and learning pace, whether they are a young learner building foundational skills, a teenager preparing for exams, or an adult looking to improve their professional or conversational English. Having lived and studied in England for over 10 years and completed my entire university education in English, I bring an authentic and natural understanding of the language, far beyond what textbooks alone can offer.

Each session typically begins with a review of previous difficulties, followed by targeted explanations and interactive practice, including conversation, grammar exercises, writing tasks, or exam preparation, depending on the student's needs. I place particular emphasis on spoken fluency and confidence, helping students develop the ability to express themselves naturally and accurately in real-life situations.

My approach is patient, structured, and encouraging. I adapt my teaching style to suit each individual, ensuring that every student feels supported and motivated to progress. Classes are available in person in Brussels or online, making them accessible and flexible to fit any schedule.
