I have a MSc. in Education, and I am currently a PhD candidate at Leiden University within the Humanities Faculty, as part of the Institute for History - International Studies.
My academic activities include developing special courses in order to prepare students for TOEFL, SAT, ACT, GRE, and GMAT examinations (American standardized tests required to apply to certain universities).
I am also an International Baccalaureate® (IB) and Advanced Placement proctor and tutor for the American School of The Hague.

I have many years of experience teaching English, Spanish, History, Social Studies, Psychology, MS maths and Algebra.

In addition, I have several years of experience with Mindfulness practices within educational settings in order to address procrastination, stress, anxiety, and enhanced cognitive and academic performance.

A qualified language coach with 25 years of experience offers intensive Dutch lessons in a small class or online.

I give many Dutch NT2 lessons to expats and in preparation for an integration exam.
Specialized in guiding for the State Exam I and II. Special exam coach.

In January 2025 I will also start with groups again. We have a great classroom in the center of Rotterdam, near metro station Beurs, lessons with small homogeneous groups (little difference in level).

We mainly go for quality and not just running a lesson. I am really involved in the progress of the student. In addition to teaching, I want to do everything to really motivate students to take the next step. That is my strength!

You can also choose the online lesson package with Whereby, Teams or Zoom in a comfortable way. Online classes are one-on-one or maximum one-on-two, for better results.

My English is fluent, as well as Portuguese and Spanish. I understand the difficulties of overcoming barriers for Latin languages and for expats in general, as I have also been an expat.

Online lessons last 75 minutes once a week for 10 weeks to reach a higher level.

This is the normal speed. Including exam training (A-2 or Staatsexamen) and exam at the end.

Intensive training ? That can also be done in five to ten full days, I am used to giving these very intensive trainings to CEOs or managers who want it faster and more intensive ... all lessons within 3 or 4 weeks. Based on the European system A-1, A-2, B-1, B-2 and C-1

As soon as students want to further improve their knowledge of Dutch, I always advise and coach them to take the State Exam I or II, the only formal Certificate in this country, recognized by employers and universities.

I will try to switch to conversation after a few lessons, to put your knowledge into practice as soon as possible. Don't get too caught up in the grammar.

Teaching is my ultimate passion and even after 25 years it feels like the first time and students always feel inspired to overcome the obstacles.

I also teach you about Dutch social culture, which is intertwined in the course and is strongly related to the language.

I am an Italian native speaker with a bachelor in Italian Literature and Linguistics. In Italy, I usually teach English to high school students, or adults who want to improve their skills with this language.
Usually, I tend to use a non-academic approach, by focusing on the student's interests and make him/her applying the language to their everyday life, instead of simply learning the grammar rules by heart.
In my opinion, learning a new language should be fun and easy, nothing too stressful. What you will get from is a new positive and funny way to learn a foreign language such as Italian or English.

I offer help in learning to read, write, and speak the English language for beginners and also help with proofreading and constructing professional correspondence, university papers etc.

For Beginners:
I understand that learning a new language can be discouraging for many. Class is once a week in the home, and then 2x a week we will communicate through assignments remotely in a 20 minute interval refresher. This will be done on WhatsApp.

Because every student's needs are different, I will provide a constructive feedback reports.

> Improve and perfect their language skills (speaking, writing, listening and reading)
> Prepare for language certifications such as PET, FIRST, TOEFL, DELF, admission exams...

About Francesca: I graduated as a translator and interpreter from the University of Geneva (Switzerland) and I lived in different countries where I perfected my accent and pronunciation and I also learnt about the local culture (specifically Italy, Switzerland, France, Germany, Belgium, UK, the US).
I love foreign languages and cultures and my goal is to pass this enthusiasm on to my students as they also learn "boring" grammar rules. For me it's all about helping you find a method of language learning that makes it easy for you to remember new words and correct grammar.

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Hello! My name is Leonor and I am a Law Student from Portugal. In the last few months, I worked as an English Teacher in a Refugee Camp and Greece and before that I worked as a Portuguese and English tutor to both middle school and high school students. I had a 8.5/9 IELTS score and have lived abroad for several years, so English is a language I'm really comfortable in speaking.

I love creating worksheets and powerpoints. Furthermore, I love summarizing the topics I'm teaching in the end of each lesson and making sure the students never leave class with questions. Creating a comfortable environment for the students to make mistakes is something I consider really important.

I would love to teach you Portuguese and English, so you can improve your legal, writing and conversational skills in both languages!

A different way to learn!

Writing can be hard work. You know what you want to say, but when you try to write down your ideas, your brain starts to hurt. Sometimes you don't know how to get started, or you get stuck. Perhaps you've toiled away, trying to capture your idea, only to realize your paragraph seems horribly dull.

Most writers wrestle with these issues but learn ways to make the writing process less painful. I can help you pick up a few tricks of the trade, so you too don't have to suffer (as much).

Learn how to take notes, make outlines, give presentations, craft clear sentences, compose focused paragraphs, draft stories and essays, and edit. Next time you are faced with a writing assignment, you’ll know the little steps you need to make for the task to be much more manageable.
