Gamze
Experienced English Teacher (B.S.Ed.) / Gifted Education Mentor (M.S.Ed.)
Hi there! I am an English teacher with 10 years of experience. In addition to teaching at school, I give interactive and holistic English lessons to groups or individuals. My academic field is the education of gifted students. I also conduct out-of-school support activities with these students and provide counseling to parents. Before we start working together, I offer a free initial meeting to get to know you and understand your needs. I am based in Haarlem, the Netherlands but I also offer online classes all over the world. I believe that any kind of effective learning is an adventure that begins with a personal bond and ends with autonomy. Peter Drucker says, "Learning is a lifelong process of keeping abreast of change, and the most pressing task is to teach people how to learn." In this age, every paradigm is changing very fast, so the teacher must help students find out how they learn best. Instead of continuing to deliberately learn something for years, let's find this "know-how" for English and ourselves together!

A question I would love to answer with you in one of our tutoring sessions. I can work with younger children to establish basics, right the way through to adults wishing to perfect their speaking skills. In addition, I have a plethora of English texts to work with for students wishing to focus on English Literature. I have an A-level and GCSE qualification in English. I will tailor lessons to your needs/ability and age. I provide speaking, listening and writing activities. For children, I will work with a shared document, where I will keep a record of your child’s progress, the actives we did and their homework. Parents are welcome to be present. For adults I will provide a shared document of your homework and progress. I am happy to offer online or in person sessions for children/adults. I can also offer help with university applications in the United Kingdom and English examination preparation and application. We can also discuss intensive lessons (every-day for 5 days) includes speaking, listening and writing.

French language classes for beginners who want to speak French.
French is spoken by 220 million in 5 continents or more speakers. It is the 2nd most commonly learned language after English, and it comes 6th for the number of people who speak it. It is one of the most preferably spoken languages in the world. It is very important to learn French because you will increase your chances of communicating in a non-English speaking country. In my French language classes, you will learn how to communicate in french. We will start with ; Greetings. You can begin with simples expressions as : Bonjour (hello), Au revoir (good bye), Comment allez vous ? (how are you?), Je m'appelle... ... Numbers, weather expressions, alphabet, how to tell time... ... The 6 possible french pronouns. ... Verbs and conjugation. ... Common nouns and adjectives.
