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 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.

Hola,
¿cómo estás?☺️
My name is Joana. I am a native Spanish teacher, with a degree in Spanish Literature and Language and a Master's degree in Spanish as a foreign language (UNED Faculty).
■ Since 2009 I have been working at the Cervantes Institute as an OFFICIAL EXAMINER of DELE diplomas (Diploma in Spanish as a Foreign Language)
(I am fluent in French, so during the course I give all the necessary explanations in French on grammatical rules or vocabulary.
Having extensive teaching experience, I prepare students/adults for all levels of the DELE Spanish Diplomas and for all official Spanish exams within Universities.
● Spanish courses for adults who intend to travel or live in a Spanish-speaking country.
● Specialized fun Spanish courses for children (6-13 years old), audiovisual material, interactive games on the internet, choice of textbooks taking into account their age. Children learn the language through experiences and experiences while having fun.
● Help with school homework/exams for French students (all levels, + preparation for BTS, CNED)
● Spanish courses for adults who use Spanish in a professional context (Business Spanish: tourism/restaurants, law, etc.)
● Spanish pronunciation/phonetics/conversation courses (exercises provided by the Cervantes Institute). During my Master's degree, I specialized in Spanish phonetics for foreigners. Students can achieve a very good level of oral production even if they are beginners* :)
● Written production, grammar, oral and written comprehension.
● Spanish civilization course.
I live in Spain, so I give all my classes on Skype.
Skype classes are very flexible and as effective as face-to-face classes! (100% success rate for all Cervantes Institute DELE diplomas and all university exams!)
■ COMPLETE learning materials provided to all my students according to their personal level/age/interests (DELE preparation manual, grammar book, pronunciation guide, notes, mp3 audios)


I will be happy to read from you.

A greeting,
Johanne :) 👩🏻‍🏫🇪🇸

Do you want to learn Chinese, whether for your child, your studies, your work, a trip, or simply out of curiosity? I offer Mandarin courses adapted for children, teenagers, and adults, from beginner to intermediate level!

Currently in my final year of a Master's degree in Chinese studies, I speak four languages (French, Dutch, English and Chinese) and I had the opportunity to live and study for a year in Beijing, at the 外交学院 (China Foreign Affairs University).

My career has also been marked by several participations in the Chinese Bridge Competition, a major international Chinese language competition. I twice achieved second place in the Belgian final and then participated in the storytelling event (故事会), where I reached the Top 50 worldwide.

My method is based on a structured progression inspired in particular by the HSK, while being adapted to the objectives and pace of each student. We can work on pronunciation and tones, vocabulary, grammar, characters, listening comprehension as well as oral and written expression.

For children and teenagers, I use an interactive approach with games, stories, pictures, dialogues, and age-appropriate activities. For adults, I can tailor the lessons more to conversation, practical Chinese, everyday situations, travel, studies, or a professional context.

I also wish to share my passion for Chinese culture, which I had the opportunity to explore in depth during my year in Beijing. Since language and culture are closely linked, the courses can also incorporate elements of traditions, festivals, history, and daily life in China.

Each lesson is therefore personalized according to the student's level, age and objectives.

Whether you are a complete beginner or wish to consolidate an intermediate level, my goal is to enable you to progress in Chinese in a serious, structured and motivating way.
