I am an audiovisual translator, but I love to teach languages in my spare time, I can teach Spanish since it is my native language, and English. I have experience with kids. I like to prepare my classes as if they were a game, setting small goals and objectives so we don't lose hope and actually learn something every day. I can help with conversation skills, culture, vocabulary and grammar.

Spanish working in engineering but enjoy sharing my mother tongue. If you want to improve or just practice your Spanish, let me know.
Based on my experience learning other languages, I ́ll challenge you to practice with your daily experiences

I teach all levels of english and have experience in different age groups as well as levels. Making you feel comfortable in my classroom is essential to a good student teacher relationship. I like to make my lessons as interactive as possible. Students learn from me but i also learn from my students. Learning whilst having fun is key! I give all sorts of lessons, from speaking, to grammar to vocabulary. You know the drill.

I try to use as many materials and visuals as possible, I design worksheets, stories and games for my students. Its most important to set goals throughout the proces and reflect on these goals after each lesson to know where we stand.

I already can’t wait to meet you and start our learning journey together!

I am a student from Barcelona. I speak Spanish, Catalan and English perfectly and I like to teach how to speak my own language. We can have fun and have conversations in order to learn how to speak this nice language and sometime necessary.

My classes are based on developing practical skills and providing you with the tools to tackle any conversation from business to day-to-day life. The approach is tailored to the specific needs of every student. During the first session we will define together the objectives, the time required to achieve them and we will develop a plan based on that.

As a creative copy professional and philosopher, I see every lesson as an experiment. To keep us both on the edge of our seats, I continuously explore new ways of teaching that fit your specific needs. Feel tempted? Book your first lesson and get one extra!

Doubts? Dutch might feel a little violent to a delicate mouth in the beginning. But once you get passed that, a sea of inspiring and quirky new ways to express yourself will open up. To help you move beyond that hump, I will adjust my lessons to your personal passions and interests, including your specific reasons to speak and/or write in this language right now.

Two kids that are roughly the same level can share one webcam lesson of one-hour minimum. Keep in mind that we will stay online for at least 15 minutes extra, as young ones will need at least two 5 minute breaks.

Hello to everyone! I am Manolis and I am a certified teacher in primary education. Together we can learn the language, the history and of course we can travel to Greece through the cuisine! I earned my Bachelor in the University of Ioannina as a primary teacher. I have one Master in Digital Technologies in Education and an other one in Intercultural Education.

Hey! My name is Yasmin, I was born in Denmark, mainly raised in the Netherlands, but moved more than 14 times to different countries and cities. I have always attended an international school and received my Bachelor's degree in English & Pre-Law from the University of California Santa Barbara last summer. I have decided to continue my studies and am currently studying international & European law.
I provide English tutoring where we can focus together on whatever you need, such as: writing, speaking, writing essays and creative writing. I can also help with homework or help with public speaking and giving presentations in English, of course. It is important to me that you receive enough help so that you can continue with full self-confidence.

In addition, I am also there for children whose parents want them to be able to master the English language. I do this by having fun and educational conversations with the child.

Hopefully see you soon!

Like no other, I know how difficult it can be to structure a research or project in a short time. You want to distinguish main issues from side issues and be in the final report to-the-point in communicating the results.

From MBO level 2 I went on to a doctorate in astrophysics at the University of Amsterdam. During this path, I have written hundreds of reports, published 6 scientific articles and presented my findings hundreds of times both informally and formally.

In addition, I have been a successful thesis supervisor of 3 bachelor students and 1 master's student.

I would like to help you get the best out of yourself with the help of my knowledge and experience. However, I do not want to do this with a leadership mentality, but from an advisory mentality in which we can put together as equals a nice end product that we both support. I can offer concrete support for your research/project in:
