Italian ↔ English conversation with chatty Italian living in Belgium - Ghent - Private lessons

Italian ↔ English conversation with chatty Italian living in Belgium

From 16.97 £ /h

Want to impress your partner with newly discovered romantic Italian compliments? Want to showcase your wine knowledge to your in-laws during a family dinner? Want to be able to order a caffellatte macchiato con latte di soia without having your waiter scoff at you while traveling around Italy? Then starting a conversation with me will be your answer!

I will guide you through the amenities of the Italian language, coming from someone who grew up with it. I am a Bioprocess Engineer, currently employed in Gent at an industrial biotech company. I studied and lived (mostly) in Italy until I was 20 years old, then I moved to Copenhagen to continue my education. I am an Italian native speaker, and I use English in my daily personal and working life.

Talking to someone is the best way you can practice new languages. When I was a teenager I moved to Canada for six months to learn English, and even if I struggled at the beginning, pushing myself to have crooked conversation with friends was the perfect way to start mastering the language.

We can talk about current topics, family, hobbies and the like. If you have specific requirements or interests, we can indeed explore those. Let me know, a presto!

I am a native English speaker from USA and I specialize in teaching, exam preparation, instruction and text correction for several students and professionals residing in Belgium.

With experience in 4 different cities across Europe and Asia, I take a multidimensional approach to my classes, tutoring and assisting with both Academic and Business English, to ensure that all my students are at ease during the lessons which results in faster improvements and undeniable results. The lessons cover various topics, mainly focusing on comprehension, reading techniques, writing skills, grammar, vocabulary, and day to day conversation along with accent training and basic language skills.

My former clients include students from middle school, high school and college as well as professionals from various occupations. I have worked with them to improve their spoken and written English. I also tutor clients who want to improve their English at an academic level for exams such as the SAT, IELTs, EPSO and TOEFL. These include high school students, college students as well as professionals, ranging from engineers to young interns at the EU parliament. I assist with exam based preparation to achieve the desired results and my clients have not been disappointed so far.

I have further proofread, edited, written and improved a large amount of essays, college applications, theses, personal statements, and assignments for various clients at an academic level.

I like to make my lessons interesting, but at the same time, I make sure that they are as productive as possible. With a thorough understanding and experience of English grammar and literature, I further take care of ghost writing, proof reading and editing of academic and professional papers. Weekly and monthly rates are possible in this case.

I have no issues meeting anywhere in Brussels, or at a location or town close to the city.

Would you like to learn German from the beginning? Or just revise your already existing skills?

I would like to do that with YOU!

Tailor-made lessons and conversation classes adapted to each student or company's interests and goals. With a focus on speaking and listening, we use a wide range of activities and exercises. News articles and textbooks, as well as audiovisual materials and a friendly, professional environment, provide the basis for effective, authentic and interactive expression and communication.

I am a native German speaker from Weimar, with a lot of experience in teaching.

So don't be shy, contact me :)

Looking for a native speaker to chat about k-drama, k-pop or the in-depth of Korean culture? I am here for you!

My name is Jinha(진하) and my native language is Korean.
I can write, read and speak Korean and English fluently. I was born in South Korea and grew up in California, U.S.

Growing up with two different culture all my life I know the difficulties in learning a new language and adjusting to the new culture. We can discuss on what you would like to learn, whether it be learning the language from beginners level or just looking to improve on everyday talk!

*I find it important to only speak in Korean during the session*
(but if questions come up and you are having trouble we can speak in English or dutch/ik sprek een betje Nederlands)
*You can ask to meet at Café or group class(with friends)*

I look forward to meeting and sharing my personal knowledge in Korean!
Ik kijk ernaar uit u te ontmoeten en samen Koreaans te speken!
우리 곧 만나서 재미나게 한국어를 배워봐요!

Enjoy Korean Dramas
Korean cinema and TV culture are especially fascinating. And the quality is very high. Boong Joon Ho’s Parasite won 4 Academy Awards as proof of that. If you want to experience Korean films and Korean dramas to their full extent, speaking Korean is a must.

You’ll be able to read the subtitles and understand the characters. In fact, if you enjoy Korean entertainment, you can also substitute your language classes. Why learn Korean with boring grammar drills, when you can immerse yourself with exciting K-Dramas!?

Effortless English Language Learning

is my favourite method of teaching people USEFUL English to help them become confident English speakers fast, without studying or effort.

Here is how you will learn if you choose to take this Course:
During each session:

STEP 1: I ask you "appropriate" questions to what's most important to you in your life.

STEP 2: You reply as good as you can.

STEP 3: I correct your English where necessary, your pronunciation if needed, and help you say what you actually are trying to say (FYI: I have 18 years of experience in teaching English ).

STEP 4: Together we create a script, a piece of text, for your next 1-minute English ListeningExercise.

STEP 5: After the session I professionally record your tailor-made 1-minute English ListeningExercise.

STEP 6: Your task is to listen to that ListeningExercise for 10 minutes every day with headphones.

STEP 7: A week later (or less), you take your next session with me where you show me how well you can say your 1-minute English ListeningExercise from memory and we repeat the process.

It doesn't matter if you have a beginner or mid-intermediate English level, if you follow these steps, then there is no need to focus on English grammar or sentence structure because that will come automatically to you.

That's what I want for you:
to acquire a natural English awareness that is focused and useful to your situation in your life, not mine, so that you can become the confident English speaker you intend to become and USE the English you've learnt on a daily basis.

I'll be there for you as your English language coach and lift you up each time you need it or request it.

So if you are looking for a 5-star teacher to improve your English fast, I AM that guy.
That may sound arrogant but I strongly believe in myself and my teaching methods.
And this is what sets me apart from rest.

And if you also believe I am all of that, and you are committed to learning English and know what you want in life and where you're going, I am sure you'll give it a try.

Life is simple.

Biology, physics, chemistry and French and English. The best study results are achieved with regular study and keeping up with the study material. Lack of sufficient basis for progress can be remedied. Through years of experience I have developed a coaching method in which the pupil, student or coachee as a person is central with an eye for context and specific circumstances.

You want to improve your conversation, reading comprehension, grammar or vocabulary. This course aims to teach students the basics of Arabic(the Moroccan Darija), English language and french,enabling them to communicate in everyday situations.My courses could be given in different ways: meeting in somewhere or through webcam.

The goal of this session is to allow the learner to speak in English, to understand its principle and how it can be used at school and professional level. These are also very simple lessons.
You will learn according to your availability.
