I’m a native English business professional with over 40 years of international experience. During my career I’ve lived and worked in the United States, Scotland and Belgium while doing business in all regions of the world. I have worked at all lèves of management and in addition to running a business for a private company have also owned and started two other businesses on my own.

I offer the opportunity for professionals to use me as a sounding board for their activities while simultaneously fine-tuning their use of English. I’ve been doing this activity for over ten years and can provide references on request. My clients have been diverse who work in the fields of law, medicine, science, government, manufacturing, services, etc. My diverse professional and educational background gives me the ability to converse on virtually any subject that my clients require.

My course is for those who need an upgrade of their English in general (re-visit the basics to better understand and assimilate) or more targeted (for those who need specific concepts at work). My course is for both professionals and students.

I am currently a student, I have already given courses of support in English and can afford it because I have behind me two years of faculties in literature and culture of English-speaking countries. So English, that knows me!

Before the first session, I would just like to know what we could work on (just to prepare myself and prepare you for excercises).

(For students, you can bring homework where you block or your lists of irregular verbs if you wish).

I am a Pharmacy student who has been practicing spoken and written English for 17 years, with an advanced C1/C2 level (proficient user/fluent)
I offer help with the understanding and realization of homework to secondary, but also the translation of all types of texts (en / en or en / fr).
I also help to learn the language through various media, to achieve a complete mastery (oral, written, accent).

I would like to share my knowledge and mastery of English for the first time, during one-off or unique lessons. I have already taught high school and university students, which allowed them to pass their end-of-year exam.
Whatever your age, I propose to help you improve your level of English.

Hello everyone and welcome to my English and or German lessons taught in group. I organise English and German lessons for children and teenagers and separately adult English group lessons (beginners to advanced). For children and teenagers, interactive activities are used as a way to motivate them, help them remember what they have learned in class and make sure they will be able to apply their language skills in real life context.
For the adults lessons, depending on what the students are willing to learn, we can have discussions based on the news, some grammar, writing... I am open to any suggestions, just tell me your needs and I am going to adapt the next lessons for you. If you wish to invite your friends and make a group with them, just let me know and I will allocate you a time slot.

For private English lessons, please have a look at my other advertisements. The German lessons are usually for beginners/ intermediate (exceptionally advanced levels in German can be organised only if there is a high-demand).

Don't hesitate to contact me should you have further questions. It would be a huge pleasure to integrate you in one of my classes. :-) Lessons usually last 50 minutes.

Having given lessons in the three languages, I put myself very easily at the level of the student in order to give him all the tools necessary for learning the desired language. The first meeting will be used to determine the strengths and weaknesses of the student in order to find the best remedy to correct the weak points.

I also help with the writing of any document in one of the three languages (end-of-study work, essays, etc.).

Graduated with a Master's degree in management sciences, financial orientation, I have given many courses for several years.
I adapt to the level of the student by taking the time to make the subject that is causing difficulties understood.
I obviously help with the preparation of questions or exams. I also give exercises to prepare for the next course, so as to take stock of the material seen together during the course.

Learning a language is a daily, lifelong process. English is spoken everywhere, Spanish is also widely spoken.

Having studied Spanish and English in secondary school, I then perfected it during my university studies. Today, I can interpret and translate easily.

The goal of learning a language, besides respecting grammatical forms, is above all to be able to express oneself in everyday life, or even to have elaborate conversations with people of a higher level. Everything is equal.

With my background, I can teach you how to express yourself more easily. I also just came back from a long trip to Mexico and Europe, especially Italy and Spain. So I'm very sharp.

For languages, it is also about respecting the person's pace and interests. It is in a good mood that we do things well.

English courses for all ages and levels.

Is your child having difficulty following the language of Shakespeare and you are no further ahead than them?

Are you an adult and want to add a new language to your skills or specialize in a particular field?
A graduate in conference interpreting and a Dutch/English > French translator with over 10 years of experience, I offer support/improvement courses for all ages and levels. Together, we will determine the learner's needs and I will create a personalized program to help achieve the set goals. I adapt my method according to what best suits the learner.
Result: a gain in skills and confidence!

I am ready to adapt to everyone's needs to make the course entertaining and, above all, to make you want to learn.
I am available to answer your questions during the week, even outside of class, and I hope to be able to help you understand better in class!
I obtained a bilingual baccalaureate, so I speak English fluently and am therefore able to teach you this language in a less "academic" way.
I am currently studying to become a midwife, but previously completed a year of a degree in mathematics, physics, and chemistry, and am therefore perfectly ready to give you lessons in these subjects!

Developing a solid grasp of English is a key asset on your CV. Whether you're preparing for an internationally recognized official certification exam, an exam in an academic or school setting, or simply a trip to London, I offer rich and varied course modules to help you learn this beautiful language while focusing on what truly matters: no longer being afraid to engage in conversation with Shakespeare!

I hold a recently renewed C2 certificate, I have published some of my texts in English-language literary journals and, most importantly, I have been working in English for almost 25 years.

I can support you in your language ambitions at home or via webcam, depending on your availability.
