Hello,
I am an American Student currently studying International Affairs in Brussels. While in high school I partook in a program in which I taught local German children learn English. English was one of my best subjects while in high school and my skills have only gotten better since. My goal is to teach my students English the way the would hear and see it if they were in the United States. Personally I feel this approach is the best seeing as this is how I learned German and how I am learning French and Dutch. I could help with English assignments and or create lessons on a range of topics.

About Me
I am an American student currently living and studying in Brussels. I have lived in Europe for six years going on seven now. The first four years I was living in Europe I learned German. During the learning process I found myself wishing there was a tutor that spoke everyday German and not just "book" German. I found that I learned best when faced with scenarios in which I had to speak the language. My goal is to teach English in a way that sounds natural as well as clean.

Since I believe that the learning environment is one of the keys to successful language learning, I endeavor to make students feel comfortable and content in my lessons: to ask questions if they are unsure and keep an easy but rewarding pace of learning.

Depending on how my students feel they learn English most effectively, I adapt my lessons to use materials that give them the best results possible. For instance, some students find the continuity of a coursebook effective, while others prefer to be more flexible with articles and podcasts. I know from experience that every student is unique.

I offer secondary school level language courses for French, English and Russian.

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.

Academic support in various subjects: French, mathematics, history-geography, languages (French, English, Spanish), as needed.

Organization and work methodology: learn to plan, summarize effectively, and revise methodically.

Regarding the course structure, the goal is to adapt to the student and their needs. It is entirely possible to:

-help the student with his homework by providing educational support
- review lessons for a test/exam
- explore a concept seen in class in more depth
- work on a working/learning methodology

Of course, this can also be defined by the time of the school year (holidays, approaching exams, etc.)
