Are you looking for a qualified native English teacher (British) with extensive teaching and business experience? If so, I would love to help you!

I have a very simple teaching philosophy. Every single lesson must be challenging, rewarding, and fun – as the best way to learn is with a smile on your face. I adapt our lessons together to your unique needs and goals, including:

• improving your accent and pronunciation;
• helping you avoid steenkool English and typical ‘Dunglish’ words;
• broadening your vocabulary; and
• perfecting your use of tenses.

Most important of all, I can help improve your confidence, which is the key to learning any language.

A speciality of mine is Business English, so I can also help with everything from preparing for an interview or speaking in meetings, to giving a presentation.

While my classes are 100% in English, I can also speak Dutch and Spanish. This gives me a real insight as to why students make certain mistakes, and how to best avoid them.

The content of the lesson depends on what the student / pupil needs.

I also like to give writing advice for an essay or story written by the student / pupil.

1. What is the TOEIC?

The TOEIC (Test of English for International Communication) is a language test developed by the Educational Testing Service (Princeton, USA). It measures/demonstrates the language skills that everyone in today's multinational work environment needs to communicate successfully in a foreign language.

2. Who uses the TOEIC?

The TOEIC test is one of the most widely used English-language tests in the world, with more than 14,000 organizations and universities in more than 160 countries relying on TOEIC scores to make important decisions.

3. What is the TOEIC used for?

The TOEIC is used to help organisations to:
• Select, hire, and/or promote their employees based on their level of English
• Select employees with adequate English language skills to participate in English language programs or training.
• Standardize the level of English language proficiency within the company.
Universities and other higher education institutions use this test to:

• Measure their students’ progress

• I will provide you with a lot of exercises and materials, and we will practice a lot
• Depending on your needs, we can focus on the Listening and Reading Test, the Speaking and Writing Tests, or both

Are you struggling with one of the components of the Dutch language? Dyslexia? Then you can now quickly and in a fun way improve your language skills. Research shows that 95% of dyslexic people benefit from good language education. Spelling and grammar in particular are not that difficult to learn. It is mainly about good explanation, and a lot of practice. I have a lot of experience in helping students who experience problems with language use.
Reading skills, writing skills, style, creative language use. Everything is possible and allowed in the lessons. Because of my Montessori background I have experience in customized lessons. Book a trial lesson now!

Hello! My name is Sten Mulder Gaton, 23 years old and a Spanish Teacher HBO student.
I started giving Spanish tutoring in 2022, and that's when I discovered that I really enjoy it!

By now, I have tutored all kinds of students, from first-year high school students to retirees, from the unemployed to investors, from Indonesians to Americans (this means I can also teach in English). What the students enjoy most about the lessons is the energy I put into them, which motivates them and, of course, leads to good results.

From the age of one to eight, I lived in various parts of Spain, which means I speak the language fluently and recognize the differences well. You will not only receive help with the Spanish language, but also learn a bit of history and the connection between Spanish and other languages; these are taught using mnemonics that are guaranteed to help you make tremendous progress in learning Spanish!

I am a very friendly, helpful, and social person; I have always enjoyed interacting with people. This also creates a good atmosphere during the lesson, which I find very important.

My teaching style is unique compared to the teachers I have worked with. I focus purely on your learning goal, without difficult grammar exercises. I also teach you handy reading methods and use 'psychological' tricks so that you learn Spanish at a rapid pace!

In my experience, a 2-hour lesson is the maximum duration. After 2 hours of lessons, your concentration decreases. I try to teach you as many different aspects of the Spanish language (and appropriately, the History and Geography of Spain) as possible within that time.

What really motivates me about tutoring is the joy I see in the students and the progress they make. This makes me incredibly proud and determined to continue teaching the Spanish language. I am also taking Module C (highest level) at the Instituto Cervantes, which provides me with tips on teaching and conveying the material. This module provides me with a certificate as compensation.

So what are you waiting for? You are guaranteed not to find cheaper and better tutoring anywhere else! Send me a message :)

Cheers!

General English: I design the English course based on your personal needs, interests, and motivations. Based on your profile and existing level of English, the course would focus on a specific combination of grammar, vocabulary, listening, reading, writing, and speaking.

English for academic purposes: This course would cover the key aspects of English needed in higher education and academic contexts. In addition to grammar and vocabulary, the course trains the key receptive and productive skills needed in higher education. Receptive skills involve reading and listening to academic texts. Productive skills involve writing and speaking for academic purposes (e.g., research papers, research proposals, essays, presentations, and others).
