English for young learners and adults

We all learn best when we enjoy the process and have fun.
With children we watch educational cartoons, talk, write, laugh and learn. It’s really rewarding to see them getting more and more confident in their skills. I can teach your child to speak with a beautiful British accent.
With adults we read different articles and texts, watch videos or vlogs, discuss interesting topics and do various exercises. I’m good at teaching pronunciation and can explain how to produce English sounds.
I can help you prepare a CV, get ready for an interview or help you make a presentation in English since I’ve got over 20 years of experience at senior positions in International retail (worked with both British and American companies).

Very good
Excellent teacher! Irina is professional as a teacher and also a very nice person. I am a beginner excel user and I needed to improve my skills for work. Irina has helped me a lot very fast and efficiently explaining clearly every detail and using clear examples. I highly recommend choosing Irina, it is a pleasure being her student.
Excel can be a powerful tool and a reliable assistant. I can teach you how to use formulas and functions, how to make tables and analyse the data, how to make pivot tables and how to get data from one table to another based on different criteria. Please note: I don't teach macros and most of financial formulas. Knowing how to use PowerPoint will help you to enhance your presentations and give you the ability to choose the best way to showcase your ideas and report the results of your work. Word will help you to make your reports, essays or contracts look professional. I'll be happy to teach you how.

The more detail, the better.

Younes
give courses in languages and applied biochemistry
My name is Younes and I give language lessons, for me teaching means learning twice so my learning method is based on simplicity and above all you have to move forward according to the student's rhythm to allow him to learn. improve and acquire new bases and be able to assimilate new information without ever becoming saturated. Sometimes it's better to go slowly but surely.

Kevin
Non-formal Latin classes. Multilingual teacher with 10 years of experience. Pronunciation, historical linguistics, semantics.
Contrary to popular belief, learning Latin is not like learning the phone book by heart. I offer you Latin lessons that are unlike any other. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches: If you take the train back and forth every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options: 1) Learn the schedules by heart. 2) Note that the train arrives every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m. In school pedagogy, in study notebooks and in ordinary courses, it is the first approach which is adopted - in the courses that I offer you, it is the second because it is more economical and faster. My offer is aimed at both students and adults who want to learn the Latin language or deepen their knowledge without time-consuming detours through the insanities of school methods which do not produce results. Learning is easy but unlearning what has become a bad habit is extremely difficult. All the more important it is to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. With my tailor-made teaching you will accelerate your learning in a positive state of mind. I offer individual or group Latin lessons (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive sciences and in particular historical linguistics. What will not be the subject of the course: learn lists of verbs; learn lists of nouns with their gender; learn words with their translations; memory card game; doing school exercises; follow the program in a notebook; impose French grammar on the Latin language. What matters to me in particular: motivate my student and give him a learning rhythm; encourage creativity; make friends with language; letters and their sounds strengthen your memory by working on the phonological loop; teach construction plans instead of having people learn sentences by heart; explain how the language works to make my student independent as quickly as possible; breaking preconceived ideas such as the gammatical gender would have a link with the biological gender, the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, the verbs would be irregular, the declension would be random and therefore to be learned with each verb... ; place practice at the center and articulate grammar around practice. In the context of a first course, you can get a well-founded idea of my pedagogy. I look forward to meeting you.

Spanish & English Lessons with Erika in Belgium :)
Teaching is my passion, and as a native speaker, I've had the pleasure of connecting with students worldwide, starting from my experiences in the Czech Republic where I used to teach English to children. We can delve into the intricacies of communication, focusing on what matters to you. I prepare students for tests like DELE and SIELE, tailoring my approach to your unique goals—whether it's acing an exam, exploring the world, or simply diving into language and culture. My lessons take a casual twist—we might stroll around, grab a coffee or tea, and make learning an enjoyable experience. The best part for me is when students express gratitude for our time together. I believe language is more than just words, and I look forward to sharing my perspective with you. Can't wait to meet you and start this language journey together!
