About Me

Hi! I’m April, a Licensed Professional Teacher and an experienced English tutor with around 6 years of teaching experience. I’ve taught English to learners of different ages and levels, both online and face-to-face, including students from Korea, China, and Japan.

For me, teaching is more than simply explaining grammar or correcting mistakes. I believe students learn best when they feel comfortable, respected, and confident enough to speak—even when they make mistakes.

What kind of teacher am I?

I’m a patient, supportive, and encouraging teacher. I try to understand each student’s personality, learning style, goals, and current level so I can adjust my lessons accordingly.

My classes are conversational and student-centered. I want my students to have plenty of opportunities to speak, ask questions, express their ideas, and practice using English naturally.

I also believe that mistakes are a normal and important part of learning. Instead of making students afraid of being wrong, I help them understand their mistakes and improve step by step.

My tutoring methods

Depending on the student's needs, I use conversation practice, guided questions, vocabulary building, grammar explanations, reading, pronunciation practice, role-plays, articles, and real-life situations.

For younger learners, I make lessons interactive and age-appropriate. For adults and more advanced students, I can focus more on conversation, fluency, grammar, vocabulary, Business English, writing, or practical English for everyday life.

I also provide personalized feedback so students can understand what they are doing well and what they can continue working on.

Who do I enjoy teaching?

I enjoy working with students who are willing to learn, ask questions, and practice—even if they are shy or still building their confidence.

I especially enjoy helping students who want to improve their speaking skills, become more comfortable communicating in English, expand their vocabulary, or simply have someone to practice English with regularly.

Whether you're a beginner starting from the basics or an advanced learner who wants to become more fluent and natural, I’m happy to meet you where you are and help you move forward.

What can you expect from my classes?

You can expect a friendly, comfortable learning environment, personalized lessons, patience, encouragement, and honest yet supportive feedback.

My goal isn't just for you to finish a lesson. I hope you leave each class feeling that you learned something, practiced something, and became a little more confident in English.

If you're a student or parent looking for a teacher who will genuinely listen to your needs and support your progress, I’d be happy to meet you. 😊

My name is Jonathan. I am a young teacher with already 15 years of experience in the field of academic support for primary and secondary school children up to rhetoric.

I also provide individual monitoring for your work method, more particularly in terms of understanding the instructions and the work schedule. If you need a helping hand, I'm here to listen.

I am a qualified and experienced mathematics tutor. Graduated from the Free University of Brussels in 2011, I started my career by teaching remedial courses in different schools in Brussels. I then specialized in individual academic support by following educational training at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. I have been giving private mathematics lessons daily for over ten years.

The students who follow my private lessons benefit from personalized support. The first session is devoted to an in-depth assessment of the student's mathematical knowledge. The objective is to detect its weak points and understand their origin in order to adapt my courses to its needs. I develop a tailor-made remediation program for each of my students aimed at filling each of their gaps. Over the course of the sessions, the student builds a solid foundation for learning and regains self-confidence. At the same time, I help him acquire a work methodology that allows him to gradually become autonomous in his studies.

I have a thorough knowledge of the mathematics curriculum for middle and high school (from 6th to 12th grade). I am also qualified to support students in preparing for international exams such as the SAT, the OMPT, and the International Baccalaureate (IB) in all its variations: Analysis and Approaches (AA SL/HL) and Applications and Interpretation (AI SL/HL).

Throughout my years of training, I studied and developed numerous techniques that facilitate learning mathematics. The strength of my teaching approach lies in my ability to explain, in simple terms, anything a student finds complicated. I am passionate about this profession because it offers me the opportunity to guide struggling students toward success. It is a true pleasure to see them progress and rediscover their connection with the fascinating world of mathematics.

I offer private tutoring in Paris (at the student's home) or remotely (online). My online lessons take place on an interactive whiteboard. This whiteboard is specifically designed to facilitate student/teacher interaction online. Thanks to this teaching tool, my online lessons are just as effective as in-person lessons. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to participate.

This class is about learning Tunisian Arabic to easily interact with Tunisians. Tunisian Arabic is not the first dialect you hear about when you start to learn Arabic, but it is indeed one of the most fascinating and useful, especially if you are working in Tunisia, your partner is Tunisian or you are into North African social studies.
It occurred to you to be told that Tunisian Arabic has no grammatical or syntactic rules because it's not real Arabic? Well, that's not true! I can reveal you some tips to speak and sound Tunisian even if you don't know anything about Arabic. We will talk, play, watch videos from Tunisian tv programs and learn about language and culture.

I also do transcriptions and translations of documents and videos into French and Italian for academic researchers, journalists, and entrepreneurs.

Arjen

My name is Arjen. I tutor and give exam training in math and physics for upper secondary education (Dutch HAVO/VWO, IB, or other similar programmes). As an Aerospace Engineer, I help students not only with solving problems, but especially with understanding the “why” behind the theory.

I start with a short diagnosis: where is the real difficulty? Based on this, I create a personal learning plan that I share with the student. In this way we work in a focused way on those areas where most is to be gained. During the sessions, the focus is on recognizing structure and analyzing problems step by step, so that students become more independent and their confidence gets a boost.

In my explanations, I regularly use examples from technology and engineering. By linking abstract theory to real applications, it becomes clearer where the mathematics or physics comes from and what it is needed for, and things often suddenly “click”.

I can give lessons both at home and via an online connection. In the latter case, I do this using a tablet, allowing you to follow my explanations and examples live on your screen.

After the the lessons, I create personal practice exercises when needed, tailored to the student’s level and learning goals. In this way, we work not only towards better results in the short term, but also towards a strong foundation for future studies.

Good day, my name is Mike. I come from Shanghai, China. I'm now studying at Shanghai University.
Chinese is the language of the east, connecting people from many nations.

Does Chinese scare you? The tones, the characters, such a different grammar... You might not know where to start.
Good news: With the right method, it's much less intimidating than it seems! So don't hesitate to contact me!

Before you go any further, let me introduce myself.
I come from Shanghai, China. I got 138(A+) out of 150 in English GaoKao.
I have no problem in English communication at all, and thus I ranked top 0.1% in the English contest for senior high school students in Shanghai, surpassing more than 15 contestants from the Top 4 elite high schools, which includes Shanghai High School. Surprised? That's true.
I have been teaching Chinese down-to-earth in offline training institutions for over 3 years as a professional teacher.
Besides, the HSK exam might be helpful to you(e.g. for overseas students in China/for foreigners working in China).
An organized, systematic course for HSK prep is also free to go!

I offer grammar lessons, conversation practice and/or exam preparation through dynamic and practical classes.
Moreover, if you wish to have a firm grip on this language, thinking in Chinese rather than just reciting the grammar rules is quite crucial.
Anyway, if you're looking for a friendly, patient and dedicated teacher, I'd be delighted to help you achieve your goals!

My methodology is as follows(may not all be included, as your needs go first):
1. I can show the examples of certain pronunciations/tones to you and you can read after me if you want.
2. I can provide you with vivid conversations and fulfill your curiosity by Q&A interactions.
3. I can present you the past papers of HSK and analyze them if you wish.
4. Instead of giving you homework, I hope that you can search more interesting videos and passages from the web, based on your own preference.

My approach combines teaching and mentoring, and I take a holistic approach to ensure improvements in all aspects of a student's development, so no worries at all!

It's okay and normal that my students come from all walks of life. As long as you are willing to learn, there is a way.
I believe that interest is the best teacher, so I'll try my best to prepare before classes and make them effective to students.

Through my own experiences of overcoming obstacles and achieving success, I’m passionate about helping others do the same. Let’s work together to ensure you reach your full potential, both academically and personally!

I help students build strong mathematical foundations, improve their confidence, and achieve better academic results through clear, engaging and personalised lessons.
My lessons are suitable for students who want to strengthen their understanding of Mathematics, catch up on difficult topics, or move to a higher level. I use practical examples, step-by-step explanations, guided practice and challenging questions to make Mathematics easier to understand.
Lessons can cover topics such as number and place value, fractions, decimals, percentages, algebra, geometry, measurement, problem-solving and other areas of the school curriculum. I can also support students following Cambridge and UK-style curricula.
Every lesson is adapted to the student's ability and learning needs. My goal is not just to help students get answers, but to help them understand WHY the answer is correct and become independent, confident mathematical thinkers.
