English is still one of the most widely spoken European languages around the world which connects people, businesses, careers and academics.
In this hyperconnected earth, learning English still needs a human connect to properly help you understand dialects, phonemes, sounds and tones.
In my class, you get a slice of my 8 years of ESL teaching in France, Canada, Norway and India, to help you navigate the terrain of L2 acquisition.
My class would be designed around your learning pace along with quick assessments to keep you on track with your goals.

L'anglais demeure l'une des langues européennes les plus parlées au monde, un lien essentiel entre les personnes, les entreprises, les carrières et le monde universitaire.
Dans ce monde hyperconnecté, l'apprentissage de l'anglais nécessite toujours un contact humain pour bien comprendre les dialectes, les phonèmes, les sons et les intonations.
Dans mon cours, vous bénéficierez de mes huit années d'expérience dans l'enseignement de l'anglais langue étrangère en France, au Canada, en Norvège et en Inde, afin de vous guider dans l'acquisition d'une langue seconde.
Mon cours sera adapté à votre rythme d'apprentissage et comprendra des évaluations rapides pour vous permettre de progresser vers vos objectifs.

English classes have become a negative obligation for many people. With my classes, I aim to make learning a new language fun. Both children and adults will find in these classes a space not only for improvement and learning, but also for confidence and positivity.
Mistakes are not something to be afraid of; without them, we could not say that we have learned.
In these classes, I will use my knowledge and tools to help you: start learning English, improve your level, or simply maintain your fluency. Of course, I will also adapt to your needs, always striving for innovation and the best approach to ensure you have a pleasant experience and associate learning with something positive.
Finally, I offer online classes from the comfort of your home, to make it even easier for you to improve or learn. I understand chaotic schedules and the difficulty of getting around, no worries!
Welcome and...
Let's begin!

English language has become more than just a language. It is a presumed matter of modern culture and a basic tool for - everything. I am offering this language part, as a person who was born in UK, with a tone of clear and precise standard British accent (Received pronunciation, King'sEnglish, Oxford English) and with a sound of British culture and history. I act therefore as an accent coach as well along with teaching grammar and conversation practice.
Since I am a Croat (and have spoken both Croatian and English since birth) I offer Croatian language classes as well and up to the very same high standards (grammar explanations, conversation practice and the standard accent guidance). So I speak Croatian using the language standard accent as spoken in the State official informing services, Universities and Institutions.
Maths is the third subject I can help you with and which I deal with (as an Architect I have studied Maths as well). There are three things I'd like to say... - Maths is a game, using brain gymnastics, a responsible discipline applied everywhere, universaly used and one of the most important ones, but still a game and with similar joy it keeps inside of itself released when one is winning or solvng a Maths problem... - the most beautiful and elegant and almost always the shortest, as so, solution is - the best one - and that is both for what I mostly seek for and teach for regarding Maths.. - and third but not less important is a message - Maths is actually more simple than one, who fears, often thinks it to be ! Along with being an optimist the best way to be free of fear is - to start learning on time and being regular with it.

Hello! My name is Najwa. Originally from Canada, where I lived and studied in English and French, I recently moved to Belgium. I am comfortable using both languages on a daily basis, which allows me to explain concepts clearly, whether in pure English or by using comparisons with French when necessary.

With a degree in social work (UQAM), I have extensive experience in providing support, whether it be tutoring children with schoolwork and homework help, or helping them learn English. I know how to adapt my approach to each individual: patience, active listening, and effective teaching methods are at the heart of my teaching style.

I offer English lessons for all ages and levels:
-Beginners who want to lay a solid foundation
-Students receiving academic support (homework, exam preparation)
-Adult language development courses (conversation, speaking confidence, professional English)

My courses take place exclusively online.

My goal: for you to progress at your own pace, in a relaxed and non-judgmental atmosphere. I adapt to your needs and objectives, whether it's passing an exam, preparing for a trip, or simply gaining confidence.

Feel free to contact me to discuss your goals!
