About Me
I was born in Egypt but I was raised around a multitude of cultures due to the fact that my family moved a lot. Being exposed to so many different people and backgrounds allowed to gain qualities such as being understanding and open minded, and being able to quickly adapt to my environment. I am a patient tutor, and I focus on the problematic parts to ensure success.
Education
I am currently a business student at KU Leuven (Brussels), graduating in 2023. I obtained my French High-school diploma (baccalauréat - filière ES) in AFLEC Dubai (2019).
Experience / Qualifications
My experience in tutoring so far is limited to friends and family, and I would love to develop this skill further, as they have consistently reported great results!

Hello! If you can understand this message without having to translate then you are ready for my help! I am from California, and have been living here in Brussels since 2012. I am 44 years old. I speak West Coast (California) English. It's the English you hear in your favorite California movies. I love to help friends who already speak "European street English" while HAVING FUN! Did you know that 70% of learning a language is learned OUTSIDE of a classroom setting? So I propose we go to the park, we cook together, we go on a bike ride, we draw, we play. And of course we will talk a lot. When I hear an error I will correct you in a fun way, writing things for you, with FUN AND REAL examples, with drawings, ALWAYS STAYING 100% in English. That's correct, I will only speak English to you, because as you and I both know, you already speak English, and you have understood everything (or maybe 70%) of everything I just wrote. What you want is to improve or perfect your spoken English (we can work on writing, too). Immersion and fun, West Coast Style. And my university degree? Yes, I have two of them, in Languages and Literature, and I speak 4 fully fluent languages (working on number five currently), but for now I want you to learn English by HAVING FUN! My friends and prior students can tell you how fun it is to learn with me. HOPE WE GET TO PLAY TOGETHER SOON! You can do it! Groups ok.

I have facilitated workshops and given classes throughout my career all over the world.

English pronunciation is essential these days because English is spoken everywhere and all the time.

I followed specialized training such as the verb tonal method, Feldenkrais or mental coaching.

We are therefore going to work in a slightly different way by combining articulatory techniques, movement, rhythm, intonation, warming up of the jaw and tongue, stretching of the neck, neck and shoulders to arrive to very fast results.

Having lived and studied abroad, I managed to acquire an excellent command of the English language as well as a deep understanding of its culture.

Students will have the opportunity to practice their English through face-to-face conversations, as well as pronunciation, reading and writing exercises. We will discuss during your first lesson to cook up a personalized approach to suit your individual needs while focusing on areas that need improvement.

In addition to this, the course also offers insight into English culture and culture, through videos, films and podcasts, which will help you understand the language better and communicate more effectively in different cultural contexts. The main objective of the course is to allow you to become more comfortable speaking and to better understand the nuances of the English language!

This course is ideal for people who want to improve their English for personal or professional reasons. With this course, I am positive that you will manage to develop your fluency in English and communicate more effectively in professional or social contexts.

I’m a native-level English speaker and have lived, studied, and worked in the UK for several years. My teaching is tailored to your needs – whether you're preparing for exams, boosting your professional communication, or building confidence in speaking, writing, or grammar.

With a patient and structured approach, I adapt each lesson to fit your goals and learning style. Lessons can take place in Brussels (Ixelles) or online, depending on what suits you best.

I see my role more as a guide or tutor, someone who creates a supportive environment where students feel comfortable to learn and making mistakes. I enjoy working with students in a collaborative way: for example, giving them exercises or homework, and then going through the corrections together, so that the focus is not only on the result but also on the learning process.

Since I have taught Italian to foreign students in the past, I have developed an approach that emphasizes patience, clarity, and adaptability. I believe it is important to meet students where they are, to understand their individual needs, and to adjust my explanations accordingly. For me, being an "instructor" means encouraging curiosity, motivating students to engage actively, and helping them build confidence step by step.

I offer tailored courses, in person or remotely, according to the needs of each student. For academic support, I adapt to the program followed by the child or adolescent, by deepening the concepts already covered, by re-explaining difficult points or by dissecting problematic themes.

For adults, I mainly teach the basics in Dutch, but I can adapt my lessons to different objectives. For example: learning the vocabulary for a new position, preparing for an exam (Selor, language certification), refreshing your knowledge before an interview, or improving your ability to communicate effectively in a professional or personal context. My approach is always flexible, student-centered, and aims to strengthen both understanding and self-confidence.
