Hello,

Passionate about foreign languages, I can provide your child or yourself with private lessons, whether in the context of personal learning or homework help / tutoring.

English: all levels
German: all levels
Dutch: beginner.

Profile:
I have a background in political science, I studied in France and Germany. After my studies, I worked in the European institutions. My working languages have mainly been English, French and German. I master these three languages at a professional level.

For Dutch, I learned it when I arrived in Belgium and used it in private settings. This is why I prefer to give Dutch lessons to beginners or as tutoring to carry out the exercises with the student.

Teaching experience:
To finance my studies, I gave private lessons to secondary school students in different subjects, including languages. I have a great taste for sharing knowledge and interaction.
I adapt to the needs of the student, both in the topics covered and in the exercises and the method. We can thus work on written / oral comprehension, written / oral expression. I vary the methods according to what the student likes for better learning, going from playful to more academic methods.

I can follow your child or your development on an ad hoc basis or over several months.

I am happy to go to the student's home or even take lessons by videoconference.

Do not hesitate to contact me !

French is my mother tongue.

Teaching experience:
To finance my studies, I provide private lessons to secondary school students in different subjects, including languages. I have a great taste for sharing knowledge and interaction.

In particular, I was a French teacher in Germany in a foreign language school, for beginners. So I have experience in popularizing my mother tongue to make it accessible to an audience.

I adapt to the needs of the student, both in the subjects discussed and in the exercises and the method. We can thus work on written/oral comprehension, written/oral expression. I vary the methods according to what the student likes for better learning, going from fun to more academic methods.

I can monitor your child or your progress on an occasional basis or over several months.

I am happy to come to the student's home or teach by videoconference.

Since I believe that the learning environment is one of the keys to successful language learning, I endeavor to make students feel comfortable and content in my lessons: to ask questions if they are unsure and keep an easy but rewarding pace of learning.

Depending on how my students feel they learn English most effectively, I adapt my lessons to use materials that give them the best results possible. For instance, some students find the continuity of a coursebook effective, while others prefer to be more flexible with articles and podcasts. I know from experience that every student is unique.

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.

Bachelor in English/Spanish Translation, and holder of a CAP diploma (Certificate of Teaching Aptitudes) I give private English lessons for pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, style, etc. through conversation. I taught English to groups of children in private schools, teenagers in remediation, then adults in the French Community of Belgium for 15 years. Belgian-American, I am native. I have traveled to London many times to visit art galleries and concerts with friends. I have stayed in the USA a large number of times because my family on my father's side lives there and family is important to me.

I provide teaching materials if necessary but a financial contribution for copies is required at the start of the course in addition to the amount of each lesson. I correct the errors by proposing one or more alternatives to the erroneous version but I do not cut the person off while they are speaking, I wait for the end of the sentence, the end of the paragraph, so as not to cut them off. fluidity. I also work by theme by providing copies with texts to read or grammar exercises to do, either at the moment or the next time. I give homework if it suits the student, otherwise, all the work is done in class, and the student reviews between sessions, for faster improvement in their level. We can also work on songs based on song lyrics. Texts based on press articles. It is necessary to be curious, to dare to ask questions, to dare to have a thirst for knowledge and a desire to learn, through trial and error. I use innovative methods. If I don't know how to answer a question, I write it down and answer it in the next class.

Dutch is a fun language with a rich history. You will master the basics very quickly! Would you like to speak the language a little more fluently? Then things quickly become a bit more challenging. Our Dutch course focuses on the acquisition of basic grammar and vocabulary. Then we move on to more advanced topics, tailored to your needs. This will help prepare you for your professional and academic challenges.

Many expats in Brussels live within the bilingual region or on the outskirts of Brussels. Often the choose to enrol their children in Dutch-speaking schools. Next to Brussels, Flanders is the economic hub of the country, with the most employment opportunities. In Belgium, it is therefore almost indispensable to speak this language to find work and settle in your (new) community.

Would you like to discover together which opportunities Dutch can offer you? We tailor this course to your needs, and we'll be sure to cover the most essential professional communication skills, cultural peculiarities you might encounter and all the much-needed topical vocabulary.

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.

Dutch can become natural for you too.

I have spoken Dutch since I was 2 years old.
Over time, I have not only kept this language: I have worked on it, perfected it and mastered it until it became a real asset.

This journey has allowed me to understand one essential thing:
👉 Dutch is learned much better when you experience it, rather than when you endure it.


A method that really works

I have helped many people learn Dutch, even those who thought they would "never succeed".
Thanks to a clear, progressive and effective teaching method, my students quickly gain confidence and fluency.

No unnecessary theory here:
We talk, we understand, we practice from the start.


For who ?

✔️ Beginners or false beginners
✔️ Students and professionals
✔️ Anyone who wants to learn without stress and with results


My objective

To show you that Dutch is not complicated, and to help you learn it simply, effectively and sustainably.
