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.

I adapt my course according to my student and what he wants to work on or deepen: grammar exercises, reading or pronunciation, listening comprehension. I lived in Great Britain for 7 years and in particular taught French as a foreign language at the University of Edinburgh. I also have several years of experience as an English teacher in Belgium. My course materials come from several teaching methods but I am also ready to create new lessons according to 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.

Hello! I'm a native speaker with 10 years of experience in teaching English as a Second Language and Business English. I also offer proof-reading of essays, dissertations and business documents.

My speciality is particularly with Europeans who are attempting to improve their level for commercial, educational or career reasons.

A little about me: I'm Irish and recently moved back to Brussels - with my partner Filipa from Dublin and we are based in Uccle.

I'm looking forward to meeting new students and can meet either in person in Brussels e.g. at ULB (University Libre de Bruxelles), or in the comfort of your home - to be discussed. As a backup online through Zoom, but much prefer in-person, as it achieves better results.

Thanks and hope to hear from you soon. Kevin

I see my role more as a guide or tutor, someone who creates a supportive environment where students feel comfortable to learn and making mistakes. I enjoy working with students in a collaborative way: for example, giving them exercises or homework, and then going through the corrections together, so that the focus is not only on the result but also on the learning process.

Since I have taught Italian to foreign students in the past, I have developed an approach that emphasizes patience, clarity, and adaptability. I believe it is important to meet students where they are, to understand their individual needs, and to adjust my explanations accordingly. For me, being an "instructor" means encouraging curiosity, motivating students to engage actively, and helping them build confidence step by step.

Hello, I’m Samira . I specialize in helping high school students succeed in English and Physics through personalized one-on-one lessons.
• In English, I focus on improving grammar, writing, and comprehension, ensuring students gain the skills they need for academic success.
• In Physics, I simplify complex concepts and guide students through problem-solving techniques to build confidence and improve exam performance.

Each session is tailored to the student’s needs, learning style, and academic goals. My aim is not only to improve grades but also to foster long-term understanding and independent learning skills.

If you’re looking for reliable, supportive, and effective tutoring for your child, I’d be happy to help.

I offer tailored courses, in person or remotely, according to the needs of each student. For academic support, I adapt to the program followed by the child or adolescent, by deepening the concepts already covered, by re-explaining difficult points or by dissecting problematic themes.

For adults, I mainly teach the basics in Dutch, but I can adapt my lessons to different objectives. For example: learning the vocabulary for a new position, preparing for an exam (Selor, language certification), refreshing your knowledge before an interview, or improving your ability to communicate effectively in a professional or personal context. My approach is always flexible, student-centered, and aims to strengthen both understanding and self-confidence.

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.
