English conversation practice with a native speaker: improve your English through conversation

From 49.99 C$ /h

I am an American student living and studying in Brussels. My teaching methods are based largely on my own experiences studying French, German and Japanese, combined with careful consideration of the interests and learning style of the student.

The primary and most important motivation in language learning is the desire to understand and take part in another culture. I therefore try to understand why my students would like to learn English, and what aspects of English-speaking culture interest them, whether it be films, literature, music, etc.

Our lessons will be primarily conversations entirely in English (or as much as possible) with corrections when needed. Using your current English level and the kinds of mistakes you make as a guide, we can look at grammar, pronunciation, and other topics to improve your level.

If desired, we can prepare topics and resources ahead of class time, such as articles, movies, books, etc. to give us a theme for the conversation.

About Me

I am always curious to learn about my students. I believe that language learning is a powerful way to understand the other people we share this planet with through cultural exchange. I try to therefore create a non-judgemental and relaxed learning environment where we discuss your interests and passions.

For my part, I am a college student in Brussels, Belgium, where I've been living for the past three years. I study music and am especially interested in Jazz, Classical, Indian, Arabic and Flamenco music. Outside of music I also enjoy reading about ancient History, running, and studying languages.

Education

I graduated from Newton North High School in 2018. After studying Philosophy briefly at Skidmore College, I am now pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Jazz Guitar from the Koninklijk Conservatorium Brussel.

Experience / Qualifications

I became interested in teaching English after helping some of my friends learn here in Brussels. Additionally, my own experience studying languages has shaped my interest. I currently speak French at a C1 level, German B2, and Japanese JLPT4.

I have a PhD in applied mathematics. My passion is teaching, and I would love to teach next to my main work. I'm teaching in English and French. Depending on your address and flexibility, we can have a useful time with each other.
I am bilingual: English and French

German-American offers its humble services to accompany you in learning its mother tongues, whether it's for exam success or just for the simple pleasure of better understanding the words of Goethe or Faulkner.
Sharing my languages through common interests, such as music, theater or film, are my favorite ways to start learning.
The learning approach is of course tailor-made, according to the desires, needs and abilities of the learner.

I will be teaching Mandarin from the beginning and start explaining how it works. It does not have an alphabet, so be ready to enjoy a whole new different way of learning a language!

You will learn pronouns, numbers, basic grammar, principal verbs, interrogation particles, time particles, and vocabulary, progressively.

I will also be sending some exercises for you to practice what we have learned and have your character writing on point.

------------------

Would you like your children to have some help with their English homework? Or do you want to practice your spoken skills in English with someone? In any case, I will be happy to help!

If there is anything you need, I’m always up for questions and clarifications!

Do not worry about schedules. We can both be flexible whenever necessary. We don’t want to add up stress, but to have a good time discovering these amazing languages!

Originally from the UK, I have been working and travelling abroad for the last few years so I understand the difficulties and beauty of learning a new language. I enjoy working with conversation practice as well as more traditional methods of learning grammer - I believe it is important to adapt to each individual's needs and areas of interest in the process of helping them achieve their goals. I have worked as an English teacher to refugees as well as teaching dance and somatic movement practices online and in person. Currently I am based in Brussels but am happy to work online or come to you! In my own creative practice I work with poetry as well as performative spoken word, however I am happy to talk about a wide range of subjects with you. I will encourage you to read and discover new vocabulary at your own speed as well as in classes in a non-judgmental and fun atmosphere.

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.

Hi!
my name is Fran, I'm a master's graduate and I'm offering English lessons for all ages and levels.

Whether you are preparing for an exam (TOEFL, IELTS, Cambridge), you need help with your homework, or just want to improve your vocabulary while having a nice conversation, I will adapt to your needs and objectives.

I'm a responsible but easygoing person, and I believe that having a good time is a fundamental factor while learning a new language. That's why I will include materials from literature, cinema, or music so we can enjoy and work on them together :)

Through my formal qualifications (C1+ TOEFL, C2 Cambridge) and years living abroad, I have gained extensive experience using English daily, and I will teach you how to navigate the language within different contexts.

Online classes can take place on any platform (Zoom, teams, etc.), and if you live in Brussels I can move to any place of your convenience.

I hope that I got your interest, and if so, don't hesitate to ask any questions!
