Career Services for students, Employees, job seekers and over 50

From 37.51 £ /h

Whether you are leaving school, seeking promotion or looking for a job. Career services is a subject undervalued and yet so important. I teach personal development for individuals or groups, cv writing, presentation skills, communication, networking, and marketing yourself, using social media plus much more. Have you ever had to give a speech in front of an audience and felt ever so nervous, do you need to write better letters for internships or jobs, this is where I take you through the process with all the skills required to make you feel more comfortable, positive and dynamic than previously, easier said than done you may think. Class groups contain interactive lively activities whereas 1-1 consultations are a deeper focus on your personal goals. If you need a motivational speech on video or need to know how to start a business up with minimum funds then these are all areas we can help you with. A 1-hour consultation will go over the time slightly however any extra time is all free.

English Conversation lessons, be prepared to talk .

26.8 £ /h

Many people can struggle or feel uncomfortable when learning a new language. I teach English conversation and use exercises to highlight the basics to get through a conversation. There can be nothing worse than having t go through grammar tables after a day at work. I work on speed of delivery, pronunciation, simplicity. If you need to give a speech in business English then this can be daunting for many people, there is no need to be afraid, take the first step and contact me. The lesson usually overruns by 10 minutes.

Hey! My name’s Lena and I’m a Graphic Design University student from Spain. I’m moving to the Netherlands this summer and thought it would be a good idea to use my spare time to teach Spanish! My lessons would be based on conversation, no boring textbooks or anything like that. I also don’t mind what your current Spanish level is! Even if you don’t speak a word it can be fun to learn little by little! I’ve also tutored English before, but never Spanish so I think this would be a good opportunity to teach others my mother tongue and show you my culture !! I have a part time job, so we can schedule our meetings around them, also we can just work it out so it suits you as well.
(lessons can be online or in person)
