Bahasa Indonesia (Indonesian) Course For Kids and Beginners by Native Tutor

From 18.76 £ /h

This class is tailored for people who have zero or limited knowledge in Indonesian. The focus will be on reading and speaking as I believe to be the most crucial parts in learning a language. Listening and writing are also possible if desired.

If you are an absolute beginner, don't worry, I have been told that I am quite a good talker and a patient teacher. Studying with me will be fun and not as strict as in the other institutions (unless you want it to be, of course). If you are looking for a tutor for your children, I can accommodate it by teaching it in a fun way; mixing it in interactive games throughout the lesson. If you have any other preference in studying, I am open to suggestions and I will try my best to apply it in my teaching method.

About Me

Hello! My name is Saras. I am an Indonesian citizen, born and bred in Jakarta. I have a bachelor's degree in Law and I am studying Human Rights Law at Leiden University at the moment.
Indonesian is my native language and I speak fluent English (8 on IELTS, 630 on TOEFL PBT, and 8 on TOEFL iBT). I passed all three tests by learning on my own using free materials I could find on the internet without taking any special classes. Thus, I am familiar in making studying languages easier and in a more approachable manner.

Education

Bachelor of Laws, University of Indonesia. Graduated in 2016.
Master's Candidate of International Human Rights Law, Leiden University. Enrolled since 2019 and expected to graduate in 2020.

Experience / Qualifications

My teaching experience includes three years as an English tutor for high school students in Indonesia; three months as an English teacher in a private Polish high school in Szczecin, Poland; and six months as an Indonesian tutor for expats in Jakarta.

This class is for anyone who would like to know more about the Russian language. If you're simply curious, I guarantee a stress-free introduction, and if you are really committed we're going to have a great journey!

Tired of your italian friends mocking you for your "bad" cooking skills? Bored of using the same old italian phrases while on vacation? Want to give your second-generation kids the chance to fluently communicate with their grandparents? This class is for you, and for whoever fell in love with italian culture and its chaotic people.

We will address all language skills (speaking, writing, listening and reading) in a relaxed one-to-one environment, while alternating the necessary grammar and vocabulary learning with language games, music and interactive discussions on news. My class will be held in Italian and English, and it will be tailored to the needs of the student. Assignments will be given after every class.

In this course you will learn Modern Greek (with some mentioning on Ancient Greek roots of the words, for anyone that is interested), grammar, spelling, vocabulary, punctuation and sentence formation.

I will provide the learning materials and together we will come up with fun activities to incorporate in our classes to turn learning into fun!

*Greek is a very challenging language, thus the classes will be personalized depending on each student's goals, capabilities and knowledge*

I am a native Greek speaker with a University Degree in Psychology and Humanitarian Science. I have experience with helping children with their homework and a patient tutor.

I am a native English speaker from Ireland currently studying MSc Psychology at Leiden University. I received a grade A1 in my Leaving Certificate English studies and my BA degree includes a specialisation in English. I also have experience teaching English as a second language in both Spain and Zambia. I am available for lessons after lectures and during weekends. The lessons can be held in a location that suits you or via Skype, etc. if necessary.
These lessons can be for students of any level who want extra support in English acquisition or improvement. As the student you can choose which areas you would most like to focus on and I can structure the lessons with this in mind. This can include areas such as grammar, conversation, vocabulary, and much more. We can discuss together how best I can help you to improve your language skills based on your needs, for example through help with homework or setting additional homework.
If the hours shown do not suit you let me know as my lecture hours vary slightly each week and I may be able to fit you in. If you have any questions at all don't hesitate to message me.

Many are already aware of the uniqueness of Italy — its rich history, beautiful architecture, and delicious food make it one of the world’s most sought-after tourist destinations. But perhaps even more intriguing is the Italian language itself.
Italian is the 5th most studied language in the US, the official language of classical music, with more than 85 million speakers globally. Based on your requirements, in this class you will learn how to speak the language fluently as a local, combined with a detailed and practical focus on the grammar and the lexicon.

Writing can be hard work. You know what you want to say, but when you try to write down your ideas, your brain starts to hurt. Sometimes you don't know how to get started, or you get stuck. Perhaps you've toiled away, trying to capture your idea, only to realize your paragraph seems horribly dull.

Most writers wrestle with these issues but learn ways to make the writing process less painful. I can help you pick up a few tricks of the trade, so you too don't have to suffer (as much).

Learn how to take notes, make outlines, give presentations, craft clear sentences, compose focused paragraphs, draft stories and essays, and edit. Next time you are faced with a writing assignment, you’ll know the little steps you need to make for the task to be much more manageable.
