Italian ↔ English conversation with chatty Italian living in Belgium

From 31.75 C$ /h

Want to impress your partner with newly discovered romantic Italian compliments? Want to showcase your wine knowledge to your in-laws during a family dinner? Want to be able to order a caffellatte macchiato con latte di soia without having your waiter scoff at you while traveling around Italy? Then starting a conversation with me will be your answer!

I will guide you through the amenities of the Italian language, coming from someone who grew up with it. I am a Bioprocess Engineer, currently employed in Gent at an industrial biotech company. I studied and lived (mostly) in Italy until I was 20 years old, then I moved to Copenhagen to continue my education. I am an Italian native speaker, and I use English in my daily personal and working life.

Talking to someone is the best way you can practice new languages. When I was a teenager I moved to Canada for six months to learn English, and even if I struggled at the beginning, pushing myself to have crooked conversation with friends was the perfect way to start mastering the language.

We can talk about current topics, family, hobbies and the like. If you have specific requirements or interests, we can indeed explore those. Let me know, a presto!

Looking for a native speaker to chat about k-drama, k-pop or the in-depth of Korean culture? I am here for you!

My name is Jinha(진하) and my native language is Korean.
I can write, read and speak Korean and English fluently. I was born in South Korea and grew up in California, U.S.

(but if questions come up and you are having trouble we can speak in English or dutch/ik sprek een betje Nederlands)

Do you struggle with English? Do you want to improve your grammar, strengthen your speaking skills, get help with school, or prepare for an exam? Then I would be happy to help you!

As a Master's student in English and French Language and Literature with over 4.5 years of tutoring experience, I offer personal guidance to students and adults of various levels.

Whether you need support for school, want to improve your English for work, or want to gain more confidence during conversations, I will help you move forward step by step.

I believe it is important that students feel at ease and are not afraid to make mistakes. Therefore, I create a positive and motivating learning environment where asking questions is encouraged and personal growth is central.

Effortless English Language Learning

is my favourite method of teaching people USEFUL English to help them become confident English speakers fast, without studying or effort.

Here is how you will learn if you choose to take this Course:
During each session:

STEP 1: I ask you "appropriate" questions to what's most important to you in your life.

STEP 2: You reply as good as you can.

STEP 3: I correct your English where necessary, your pronunciation if needed, and help you say what you actually are trying to say (FYI: I have 18 years of experience in teaching English ).

STEP 4: Together we create a script, a piece of text, for your next 1-minute English ListeningExercise.

STEP 5: After the session I professionally record your tailor-made 1-minute English ListeningExercise.

STEP 6: Your task is to listen to that ListeningExercise for 10 minutes every day with headphones.

STEP 7: A week later (or less), you take your next session with me where you show me how well you can say your 1-minute English ListeningExercise from memory and we repeat the process.

It doesn't matter if you have a beginner or mid-intermediate English level, if you follow these steps, then there is no need to focus on English grammar or sentence structure because that will come automatically to you.

That's what I want for you:
to acquire a natural English awareness that is focused and useful to your situation in your life, not mine, so that you can become the confident English speaker you intend to become and USE the English you've learnt on a daily basis.

I'll be there for you as your English language coach and lift you up each time you need it or request it.

So if you are looking for a 5-star teacher to improve your English fast, I AM that guy.
That may sound arrogant but I strongly believe in myself and my teaching methods.
And this is what sets me apart from rest.

And if you also believe I am all of that, and you are committed to learning English and know what you want in life and where you're going, I am sure you'll give it a try.

Life is simple.

Biology, physics, chemistry and French and English. The best study results are achieved with regular study and keeping up with the study material. Lack of sufficient basis for progress can be remedied. Through years of experience I have developed a coaching method in which the pupil, student or coachee as a person is central with an eye for context and specific circumstances.

In this class, you will learn spoken and/or written Hungarian according to your needs and interests. The classes are conducted in English. As a native Hungarian speaker with experience in translation and proofreading, I can give an authentic and in-depth class about Hungarian language.

I like to use creative exercises and recommend ways in which you can practice on your own. E.g. films, books, exercises. (-:

Hi! I’m a triplelingual Korean–Japanese–English instructor with years of experience in teaching, translation, and interpretation.

Every class is fully personalised to your needs: whether you’re preparing for an exam, a daily conversation, or professional use, etc.

What you’ll get:
1. Step-by-step grammar practice: Solid knowledge of grammar is key to understanding a language.
2. Choose your preferred accent: British accent vs. American accent.
As I am from both backgrounds, you can choose and see the difference.

I especially enjoy working with students who:
1. Are curious about learning new things
2. Want to sound more natural
3. Prefer patient, encouraging guidance rather than pressure

Let’s start where you are and grow from there!

Conversation lessons focus on real exchange:
- discussing topics that interest you
- improving fluency and natural phrasing
- refining pronunciation and vocabulary
- targeted exercises based on your objectives

Academic writing support is based on your own texts (essays, papers, theses, dissertations):
- improving clarity, structure, and coherence
- refining style and tone
- correcting grammar and idiomatic usage
- developing a more professional, natural written voice

Lessons can take place online, in a public space, or at the student’s home in Ghent, Brussels, and nearby areas.

As a native English speaker and a published author with over five years of teaching experience, I offer structured, supportive lessons tailored to each student’s goals. I hold a Master’s degree from the University of California, Berkeley and bring particular attention to pronunciation, written voice and spoken fluency.

Feel free to contact me with any questions or to schedule a first lesson.

My lessons are interactive and fully tailored. No classic lessons where you only listen, but active use of the language from the very beginning.

We work on what you need, such as:

* Speaking skills and pronunciation

Confidence in conversations and presentations
* Support for school, work or daily

You will find a safe and relaxed environment where making mistakes is normal and actually helps you move forward.

Together, we work on your English, whether you are a beginner or want to improve your level. We build a solid foundation and ensure that you can actually use it in practice.
