I have a MSc. in Education, and I am currently a PhD candidate at Leiden University within the Humanities Faculty, as part of the Institute for History - International Studies.
My academic activities include developing special courses in order to prepare students for TOEFL, SAT, ACT, GRE, and GMAT examinations (American standardized tests required to apply to certain universities).
I am also an International Baccalaureate® (IB) and Advanced Placement proctor and tutor for the American School of The Hague.

I have many years of experience teaching English, Spanish, History, Social Studies, Psychology, MS maths and Algebra.

In addition, I have several years of experience with Mindfulness practices within educational settings in order to address procrastination, stress, anxiety, and enhanced cognitive and academic performance.

I am an Italian native speaker with a bachelor in Italian Literature and Linguistics. In Italy, I usually teach English to high school students, or adults who want to improve their skills with this language.
Usually, I tend to use a non-academic approach, by focusing on the student's interests and make him/her applying the language to their everyday life, instead of simply learning the grammar rules by heart.
In my opinion, learning a new language should be fun and easy, nothing too stressful. What you will get from is a new positive and funny way to learn a foreign language such as Italian or English.

As I am finishing my Bachelor in Comparative Philosophy at Leiden University, I am more than happy to help high school students and adults who show interest in engaging in critical thinking, whether it is for exams, tests or as personal challenge. Furthermore, I am proficient in English, French and German for students and adults interested in learning a new language or preparing for language tests.

Although I am a trained philosophy teacher for secondary students, I have shifted my focus to tutoring English and Portuguese language learners. My goal is to provide dynamic classes that allow students to use functional language in real-world ways, but each class can be tailor-made to the individual's needs. I use Cambridge materials for my English classes, in addition to real-world texts and videos, to train students on grammar, pronunciation and vocabulary. Student-centered classes are the most beneficial in my opinion, so I focus on having the student speak while also guiding them with the correct language depending on their problem areas.

Private tutoring classes for young children, teenagers, adults and seniors who would like to:
> Learn Italian, French and/or English from scratch
> Do homework with the support of a tutor
> Improve and perfect their language skills (speaking, writing, listening and reading)
> Prepare for language certifications such as PET, FIRST, TOEFL, DELF, admission exams...
> Practice their skills in fun conversations and/or for special occasions

About Francesca: I graduated as a translator and interpreter from the University of Geneva (Switzerland) and I lived in different countries where I perfected my accent and pronunciation and I also learnt about the local culture (specifically Italy, Switzerland, France, Germany, Belgium, UK, the US).
I love foreign languages and cultures and my goal is to pass this enthusiasm on to my students as they also learn "boring" grammar rules. For me it's all about helping you find a method of language learning that makes it easy for you to remember new words and correct grammar.

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Hello!
My name is Alice and I'm from Geneva. I just arrived in the Hague to study hospitality management and Business.
I would love to give French, English, or German courses (grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, discussion, reading, oral and written comprehension).

As French is my first language and I studied French until I graduated from high school, it's for me more than natural to speak French and teach it.
Having lived in Germany for a few years and having passed exams I was certified with the B2 Telc certificate in grammar. It will be a pleasure to help with the German language (grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, discussion, reading, listening, and writing) as I have been very interested in this language and German culture.

Finally, I can also offer English classes as I have the C1 level and have been living in New Zealand for a year as well.
Being trilingual has proved to me how important, and enriching is it to speak many languages at a professional level but also as a personal one to understand other cultures and meet so many people.

I can't wait to meet new students and continue to do what I like; teaching. Don't hesitate to contact if you have any questions or requests,

Kind regards,
Alice

I study International Studies at Leiden University and I attended a scientific-oriented high school in Italy. I already have experience teaching multiple subjects to students of different ages ( from 10 to 16) but I am more than able to help children in doing their homework or doing Italian and English lessons with adults. If you need any information feel free to contact me.

I am a native Spanish speaker from Argentina that is currently living in Den Haag. I can teach all levels, from beginners to experienced speakers. If you want to focus on practice conversation, I'm here to help you. We can do speaking lessons adapted to your level.
I can go to your place or, meet via webcam (zoom). Don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions!

English is a powerful tool in today's interconnected world. Coming from a country where English is predominantly spoken, I understand how important it can be to be able not just to write but also converse in English.

I am an American citizen with a strong English education background. I love teaching and have worked as a teaching assistant during my undergraduate studies. I love working with people, especially students, and I hope to use my English prowess to help others!

I'm a polyglot & passionate teacher of foreign languages with teaching certificates in all 5 languages and more than 14 years of experience in the classroom and online.

I have lived in several countries (Spain, UK, Ireland, Italy and the Netherlands) and I have taught language classes to students of all ages in groups and individually.

I offer classes in English, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese or Catalan. Also German and Swedish for beginners.

My name is Julia, I'm 25, I'm originally from the south of Spain but I lived in Madrid for the last 7 years, where I studied and worked. I am a lawyer and I am currently living in Leiden, where I study a Master's in Public International Law.

I have very extensive previous teaching experience, both teaching English and Spanish to non-Spanish speakers. During the year 2019-2020, I lived in the United States and I worked as a Spanish Teaching Assistant for university students at Skidmore College (NY). In that context, I prepared classes for big groups, as well as private tutoring sessions for students of all kinds of levels. I also have experience working with kids, and I worked as a language teacher in India for a primary school for two months in the summer some years ago.

Hello! My name is Leonor and I am a Law Student from Portugal. In the last few months, I worked as an English Teacher in a Refugee Camp and Greece and before that I worked as a Portuguese and English tutor to both middle school and high school students. I had a 8.5/9 IELTS score and have lived abroad for several years, so English is a language I'm really comfortable in speaking.

I love creating worksheets and powerpoints. Furthermore, I love summarizing the topics I'm teaching in the end of each lesson and making sure the students never leave class with questions. Creating a comfortable environment for the students to make mistakes is something I consider really important.

I would love to teach you Portuguese and English, so you can improve your legal, writing and conversational skills in both languages!

Writing can be hard work. You know what you want to say, but when you try to write down your ideas, your brain starts to hurt. Sometimes you don't know how to get started, or you get stuck. Perhaps you've toiled away, trying to capture your idea, only to realize your paragraph seems horribly dull.

Most writers wrestle with these issues but learn ways to make the writing process less painful. I can help you pick up a few tricks of the trade, so you too don't have to suffer (as much).

Learn how to take notes, make outlines, give presentations, craft clear sentences, compose focused paragraphs, draft stories and essays, and edit. Next time you are faced with a writing assignment, you’ll know the little steps you need to make for the task to be much more manageable.
