English, Grammar and Literature from fundamentals to degree level
A good grasp and understanding of key concepts in English language and literature is crucial to communicating ideas well and attaining the best grades in any subject field. Good communication skills set students up for future successes in life and in work.
I teach students English and English grammar from rudimentary to degree level, and help students learn how to analyse English texts. I can teach all abilities, from primary school age up to degree level.
I have a degree in English Literature from Newcastle University (2.1, BA (Hons)). I have used my skills in English to go on to study Law and now work in the legal sector, at an international law firm. My English skills are something that have proved invaluable in anything I've undertaken, such as job applications and completing university essays.
I use my own resources along with any material that students need to cover to thoroughly prepare them for exams and for their future.

Top-Rated Swedish course!
I am a Swedish native speaker and general language enthusiast. Besides Swedish, I speak English, German, Spanish, French, and Italian. Having learned 6 languages myself, I am 100% convinced that I will successfully teach you Swedish(in a fun and relaxed manner)!
I have been teaching since 2018 and am currently one of the most-reviewed teachers on this platform. I encourage you to pause here and have a look at my reviews. I am confident that you too will have a similar view after having had some classes with me. On top of teaching here on Apprentus, I have taught offline group classes for the Volksuniversiteit The Hague (A Volksuniversiteit (litt. folk university) is an institute for non-formal adult education in the Netherlands). I also taught for and underwent training with Berlitz, which is one of, if not THE largest language school in the world, operating in over 70 countries and 500+ locations.
I am 33 years old, have an honours degree from Leiden University, The Hague, am calm, encouraging, and, most importantly, PATIENT. My main objective in classes is to make the student feel relaxed and at ease. I encourage you to speak without fear of making mistakes. In fact, I celebrate making mistakes. "Why?", you may ask. Well, making mistakes means that you are leaving your comfort zone. You are trying something that you are not already skilled at. You don't choose the easy path! People who never make mistakes are stagnant. Therefore, making mistakes should be CELEBRATED instead of shunned! So, good on you for mispronouncing "Nachmittag (Afternoon)", or using the wrong grammar when making a sentence! Here, let me help you get it right this time! :)
Do you already have Swedish knowledge? No problem! Instead of building the basics, we can design classes that meet your personal needs and preferences. We can write essays together, you can hold presentations about topics of your interests or topics that I provide, we can discuss current events, hold debates, you can write news-paper article summaries, or we deep dive into advanced grammar. Whatever it is that you enjoy and need: We can do it together.
All my classes combine speaking, listening & grammar exercises in interaction with me. Unless you're a very advanced student, we will work with learning materials created by some of the best publishers for language learning in Sweden. These materials serve as a red thread for our course that introduces new words, grammar, and exercises in a good pace and interesting manner which keeps you engaged and motivated. Furthermore, I show you swedish food, music and places. On top of that, I introduce you to the best technological tools (homepages and applications) to boost your language learning and take it to the next level!
Another important factor for me is having a personal connection. Unless you prefer to "stick to business", which is fine as well, we typically start our classes by talking about how the weekend or preceding weekdays have been. I don't see my students as a resource to be extracted, but as people for whom I develop a genuine interest. Over the course of time, we both know what is going on in our respective lives and update each other about small or big life events. Having taught many students for multiple years, I can gladly say that I have made real friends thanks to our classes, some of which I even have met in real life.
I am extremely confident that you very soon will have the same success that I have had in learning languages!
So what are you waiting for? Get in touch now to book an initial lesson in which we can get to know each other so that I can learn about you, your needs and wishes, which will allow us to design the optimal course for you.
See you soon!
Ses snart!

Kevin
Individual German seminar for learning in turbo mode. All levels
THE PUPIL
This announcement is aimed at both pupils and adults wishing to acquire the German language. I offer tailor-made individual German seminars for levels A1 (beginner) to C2 (perfect mastery). My goal is to make my student independent as quickly as possible.
THE METHOD
Contrary to popular belief, German is a very tame language.
You are certainly familiar with the language courses at school. You are given lists to learn by heart and you are asked to do exercises completely unrelated to the reality of a speaker. We explain grammar to you by confusing French grammar and German grammar. This is why no one manages to express themselves in German having undergone this kind of method which has proven for a century that it does not work.
With me, my student has a second chance thanks to intelligent theory and pragmatic methodology. Indeed, I am currently writing a book on the acquisition of foreign languages.
THE TEACHER
I have 5 years of experience teaching German and an average rating of 5/5. German is my mother tongue, with no particular accent. I master French as if it were a mother tongue. I am fluent in English and Portuguese and have an intermediate level in Latin as well as some basics of Greek. My personal linguistic goal at the moment is to master Latin fluently orally.
To maximize the quality of the courses, the sessions take place by video call in combination with Google Drive:
- individual tailor-made course
- interactive text document
- interactive whiteboard
- photos or scans can be imported
- readable writing
- instant written feedback during speaking
- very flexible schedule
- no time-consuming trips
If you are interested, do not hesitate to contact me to arrange an appointment or to ask me your questions. I look forward to meeting you.

English Lessons for All Levels of English Students
Greetings! My name is Yves and I am here to embark on an English learning journey with you. I am living in St. Petersburg, Russia and for now, I can tutor online and at students’ locations. I am from the USA, and have two bachelor’s degrees (in Business Administration and in International Relations), two master’s degrees (in Business Administration and in Public Administration), as well as a TEFL certificate.
The class can basically be conversational or grammar oriented and it is designed for both teenagers and adults. I am aiming to help you make progress in the English language in a more laid-back environment, meaning at your own pace. From getting the basics to fully improving your English language skills for different purposes such as traveling, relocating to English speaking countries, for academic reasons or for professional development, I can customize the classes for you.
I am a multilingual who can speak among others English, French, and Spanish and my Russian is at beginner level right now. In the past, between 2011 and 2012, I taught English in Osaka, Japan and I used to really love it. Besides, I am an experienced professional who worked for three different non-profit organizations back in the United States, and I also spent a couple years in Cape Town, South Africa working as a Human Resource Specialist for an established company there.
Please do not hesitate to write me so we discuss your specific needs and aims. I am looking forward to helping you reach your English desires.
