Many of our young ones are now learning in countries different to their home and are thus gaining an international educational.
I am here to help with this process of your child learning in a language other than their mother tongue.
They will learn oral English appropriate for their level /age through speaking, activities and games.
I can also help reinforce what they learn at school so that they feel more comfortable in their classroom environment.

About Me

I love teaching children and every day that I spend with them is just better. Children have few conditions, show them that you care and love them and they will give you their everything.
I always feel so proud when children learn something new and tell others about it...To see their smiling faces is EVERYTHING!
Recently a parent of a boy I used to teach posted a photo of him and said that he was trying to pick 'a purple lotus for Miss Dana'...He remembered my favourite colour. Another parent told me how her daughter had a dream that I went back to Shanghai to see her and stayed forever...I had a bad day but my heart was overflowing.

Hello parents! My name is Sandra. I am a native English speaker from New York State. I have a USA teaching license and a Bachelor's Degree in Childhood Inclusive Education (Grades K-6 and Students with Disabilities) from the State University of New York at Fredonia. My experiences include teaching at primary international schools in Belgrade, Serbia for 2 years and 3 years at international schools in The Hague, Netherlands. I have worked at two IB primary schools. Alongside teaching at international schools, I have 8 years of experience teaching English. I also have experience teaching grade 1 and 3 in elementary schools in New York State. I have taught children from 2-17 years old and adults. My students range in levels from beginners who are new to learning English, to fluent English speakers that need support or would like to further excel or maintain their fluency. Based on my experiences, I have learned to adjust my teaching style based on different students' needs, cultures, socioeconomic backgrounds, and learning abilities.

Lessons are provided to children and teenagers. Lessons are customized to the learning needs of your child. Whether that be learning English for the first time or practicing improvement of speaking, reading, comprehension, pronunciation, listening, writing, grammar, etc. Lessons can be aimed towards learning a topic such as food, animals, sports, emotions, and more.

For children who are fluent English speakers, tutoring can be given to further excel in particular areas. Subjects that interest the student such as science, history or world topics can be incorporated into the lesson to broaden their knowledge. Support can also be provided in learning organizational skills, research, and mini projects for older children. I am available to help with studying, homework, or school projects. For online learning, I use a variety of platforms, websites, educational games, and e-books to reach the learning goals of my students. Additional homework can be provided if requested.

Depending on the students age, lesson duration is adjusted. If you are looking for lessons for siblings, please reach out to me to discuss the best schedule for your children. My aim is to create a positive and enjoyable learning environment for all my students.

I hope you can join my English lessons! Please reach out to me if you have any questions. I can provide my resume or reference letters if requested. Looking forward to hearing from you.

English is truly a global language. It is indispensable in business, travel, and many other areas of life. Developing your ability to hold a conversation in English will open doors to meeting new people, reaching new clients or customers, and much more.

Our classes will be held either online or in person. We will engage in a conversation on a topic of your choice (or mine), after which I will provide feedback and corrections to help you refine your pronunciation, grammar, and overall conversational skills in English.

I look forward to hearing from you soon! :)

With my background in teaching English and other subjects, I tailor each lesson to your pace and level. Whether you want to improve your English speaking skills, understand grammar better, or feel more confident in English, I am here to help you every step of the way.

Curious about how I can assist you? Send me a message to organize our first session!

Hi, I'm Adele, a TEFL certified 25 year old Master's graduate. With the current lockdown, I'm looking to work some hours and love working with children. I've worked with children and studied educational sciences and bring my creativity to the table. I am native French and English, did my Bachelor's in the UK and am happy to tutor in either one of these languages. I love using music and dance or acting as mediums to learn and am an enthusiastic, using a child centred approach. I am happy to come to your house once a week to teach.

Hello!

My name's Valeria, I'm Italian and I hold an Arts, Culture and Media BA degree, which I've earned at the University of Groningen (Netherlands). Recently I've also completed the the Level 5 Certificate in Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) (TEFL Academy), thereby becoming officially qualified to professionally teach English both in an in-person and online format. My private English classes will not only cover grammar rules and vocabulary items, but they'll also be largely centred around engaging in lighthearted conversations about everyday topics. Indeed, I think it's crucial to foster in learners the confidence necessary to navigate day-to-day interactions in the outside world.

As already mentioned, I'm an Italian native speaker: I've been raised in Verona (North-Eastern Italy) and I've also completed my school path there. Similarly to my English classes, my Italian private lessons will cover grammar and vocabulary items, while also largely focusing around simple conversations about everyday topics (e.g., small talk, greeting, introducing oneself, etcetera).

I guarantee that I'll make each and every class as fun and insightful as possible! 😁😁

I'm looking forward to working with you!

I believe that learning languages should be fun and entertaining, not just a chore, so I have individual program for each student that I create based on the factors discussed before we start. After our first class I will create a program that I believe is best suitable, however it can be altered and negotiated per your request.

Spanish is second most spoken language in the world, not only is it useful it's also very beautiful and rich with unique culture. If you always wanted to visit Latin America and be able to speak with locals, love Spanish music and wish you could understand it or simply need preparation for exam or enhancing your professional skills, I can help you with that!

Scarcely had I started teaching when I was bewitched by it. With an MA in Film Directing and Screenwriting at the London College of Communication I am currently pursuing a second degree in English Literary Studies at the Utrecht University. I will be teaching with a British accent and prosody and my chief interest lies in academic and formal english. Nevertheless, i keep myself up to date with colloquial language as I travel now and then to London and New York for photography work. It will be a great pleasure to be your tutor and embark on a bipartisan learning journey. I find it just to model the teaching on the student's peculiar needs which means we will be discussing together the right path to follow. I usually proceed along the learning with the aid of Cambridge books, needless to say, according to your level. I am based in Utrecht and i do privilege on-line classes. If you please, we can set-up a first call whereby you can decide if you like me to be your teacher or else if to search further.

best,

M.D.C

No nation is free from the need for language; it is the essential tool that connects people across the globe, uniting individuals who speak different tongues. As social beings, human beings have an innate desire to connect with one another—whether by meeting new people or exploring new ideas. This curiosity is part of our fundamental nature. Language serves as the bridge for these connections, and among all languages, English stands out as one of the most important. It is often regarded as the global lingua franca, spoken and understood in nearly every corner of the world. In today’s interconnected society, English has become the de facto second official language for many countries, and is often referred to as the universal language—one that enables people from diverse cultures to communicate, collaborate, and share knowledge across borders.

I am a TEFL-certified English teacher who is excited to help you achieve all of the goals you have set for yourself on the journey of learning English. I combine elements of traditional methodologies with some less traditional methods and approaches that I have extracted from my own experience with learning, as I am someone who speaks several different languages and am therefore very familiar with this process and what it takes to get better at a new language. I look forward to showing you how simultaneously efficient and fun learning a new language can be.

I like using the CLT methond during my lessons. I have been teaching in a Gymnasium as an intern for the past 3 years and this method is the one that works best. I really like practicing the language in useful ways that the students can later on use in their daily lives.
I would provide the material for the lessons (no need for a book). I would create or print material when needed. I would also bring my laptop if something needs to be shown. It is handy for the student to have a notebook to keep track of all the work during the lessons.
