Learning a new language can feel like trying to read IKEA instructions—backwards. But don’t worry, I’m here to make it simple, practical, and even a little fun (yes, even grammar!). Whether you’re just starting or you’ve been ghosting Duolingo for months (we’ve all been there), this class is for real people who want to actually speak Chinese or English in daily life. 🗣️ What you’ll get: • Real conversation practice – no robot-sounding textbook stuff • Useful words and phrases (like how to say “I’m lost” and “Where’s the bathroom?”—top priorities!) • Pronunciation help so people actually understand you • Cultural tips so you don’t accidentally insult someone’s grandmother • 1-on-1 lessons, so it’s all about you Whether you’re trying to order hotpot in Mandarin without burning your tongue 🔥, or finally want to say something in English other than “Hello, my name is...” – this class is your safe, supportive space. 🧠 Bonus: We’ll laugh through the mistakes (yes, tones in Chinese can betray you 😅), celebrate the wins (you ordered coffee in English and it wasn’t a disaster!), and help you feel like a language legend in no time. 🌱 Build Real Progress One lesson is a great start — but you’ll see real, lasting progress after a few sessions. That’s when you’ll start surprising yourself with how much you can understand and say. Think of it like planting a language seed — let’s water it together and watch it grow! 🌿 Ready? Bring your curiosity (and maybe a snack), and let’s start speaking!

Trusted teacher: Hello students! Are you ready to learn English? Then let's get started! The classes will combine entertainment and hard work. We talk in English from the very first lesson and tailor our lessons to suit your needs. All levels and ages, both online and in person! Our lessons are adapted to your needs. We can focus on basic grammar and vocabulary, or start from scratch. On the other hand, we can also work together to prepare for official exams and deal with more complicated situations. Improving business English is also a possibility, as I have previous experience in that area. During our lessons we will mainly use online resources, personalized activities and powerpoint. You will get some homework every lesson, so that you can further internalize what we have seen in class. The lessons can last 1 to 2 hours, depending on personal preference and availability. They are held once or twice a week. I graduated in English Studies, where we studied General English, Morphology, Culture and Literature. In addition, I also have a Master's degree in Language Teaching, which gave me all the tools necessary to teach. I am currently studying a PhD in English Literature at the University of Lleida. I have over 10 years of experience teaching English, plus experience teaching Spanish. I have had both face-to-face and online lessons, both in large and small groups and for individual students. I have taught from kindergarten to older students and have adapted the lessons to their levels and needs. I have also taught business English, conversation courses and exam-oriented lessons.

Very clear as to what his teaching methods and goals are, how he'll help you get there - then jumps right in and gets you started with no fuss. I found myself speaking sentences in Wolof by the end of the lesson, and really appreciate the additional written material he supplied as well. As someone who has taught and learned various other languages I can tell that Dembane has a really sound methodology. I'll add to this review in a few months time, but so far I am impressed. Also glad that he is pointing out regional differences between Senegal and Gambia usage to me, as it's relevant to my learning needs. He does personalise the content for the individual student, which is good to see.
