About Me

I was born and raised in London and then at the age of 10 I moved to Egypt. I finished the remaining years of my studies in Cairo where I did various tutoring and teaching jobs. In the 11th grade I tutored a group of children in grade 3. I carried on doing so for the rest of high school, along with tutoring students between the 6th and 10th grade. After I graduated I decided to take a gap year to work and learn a new language. So that's what I did. For the first three months I learnt french here in Brussels. Soon after I moved back to Cairo for a teaching job where I worked with students with mental and behavioral issues at a local British school. Throughout that time I gave some tutoring lessons to adults who wanted to learn English as a second language. I tend to treat my students as friends rather than just pupils. Research has shown by giving the student more comfort and a voice in the classroom, he/she is more likely to succeed. I believe the best way for a student to learn is through Flipped Classroom mechanisms and visuals.

Education

American High School Diploma received in an international school in Cairo, Advanced Placement (AP), Montessori Foundation, and currently doing my first years Ba in Political Science.

I have tutored many students while I was in high school for about a year and a half. I have also worked at a school as a Shadow Teacher.

Need a boost in languages? I am at your disposal for private lessons in Dutch and English.
I was a scientific research assistant (in England and VUB) at the university for 10 years. Having lived abroad, I have good knowledge of languages and I have a certificate of educational aptitude. I propose an individualized pedagogy, a help with the preparation of interrogations or exams. My goal is to advance the student without overloading him and give him tools to improve his methodology.

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.

As a child of diplomates, my entire life has been colored with a variety of languages, places, cultures. In the process, having learned the importance of languages, I have made it my mission to help those who want to learn, regardless of their age.

My goal is to help everyone who is eager to learn! This includes guidance and mentorship in all areas, including spoken English and Croatian/Serbian/Montenegrin as well as grammar.
I believe that my teaching methods are very easy to grasp, not overwhelming, and most importantly, efficient!

I offer my services to help your children achieve their academic goals, whether it is for the little ones who are discovering reading and writing, or for teenagers in the middle of preparing for exams. I also have experience with university students who needed a helping hand in certain subjects.
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 then continued with a master's degree in British and American translation 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.

I offer English lessons focused on reading, writing, and speaking skills, immersion in the culture and history of the language and English-speaking peoples, and I use methods tailored to each student to ensure the fastest and most lasting progress. To achieve this, I utilize a variety of resources: traditional exercises (grammar, spelling), oral and audio exercises for pronunciation and comprehension, music and games, educational videos, and more.
I place great importance on writing by hand and not just typing on a computer, as well as on non-traditional learning methods (films, music with lyrics, games) because this engages different parts of the brain more deeply and makes it easier to learn and retain information.
I guarantee personalized learning methods and support for each student, as well as a significant improvement in level in less time than it takes via traditional platforms.
