I am a native American English speaking instructor, editor, journalist, and legal/policy expert from Florida specializing in instruction, interview and exam prep, consulting and text correction for a wide range of professionals & students across Belgium including in the legal, academic, policy, and other fields. I am available to meet in both Brussels.

My past & present clients have included: professionals and politicians from all four major EU institutions, the Belgian government, the UNHCR, and various NGOs, alongside diplomats, doctors, journalists, and engineers, as well as a variety of other professions in addition to traditional students..I have had over 35+ repeat students on Apprentus (which recently changed their algorithm to only display the last six months).

Approaching from a true native's perspective, I instruct and assist with both educational and business English in a multi-faceted nature covering a wide range of areas including comprehension, conversation, grammar, and situational skills, in addition to working on general language skills and accent training. As well, I can provide extensive help and training with the EPSO, IELTS, and TOEFL exams.

I have also written, edited or proofread a variety of academic papers, theses, applications, CVs, and other documents for numerous satisfied academic and professional clients.

I have spent my entire childhood and adult life in the United States before completing a master's degree in Political Science and European Politics at KU Leuven. Additionally, I also possess Bachelor's degrees in Political Science and History. I have an extensive knowledge and experience of English grammar and literature, as well as current and past working experience in journalism (Anti-Competition Law and European Policy at the Policy and Regulatory Report) and both European and American politics.

I have no problem meeting anywhere in Brussels or further afield within the region. I also handle correction of text, editing, proofreading and ghostwriting, with weekly and monthly rates possible. My transportation costs are included.

Hi! If you’ve always wanted to improve your English but don’t know where to start, or if you understand English but struggle to speak it, my classes are a good place to begin!

I want to make learning English feel easy, comfortable and, most importantly, enjoyable. You don’t have to worry about making mistakes or asking questions. That’s all part of learning! My goal is to help you feel more confident using English in everyday situations, one step at a time.

How will our lessons work?

Before we start, I’d like to get to know your current level and what you’d like to improve. Everyone learns differently, so I’ll adapt our lessons to your needs instead of following the exact same method with everyone.

We’ll work on:

* Vocabulary: Learning new words and expressions that you can actually use in everyday conversations.
* Grammar: Understanding grammar rules through simple explanations and examples, without making things unnecessarily complicated.
* Speaking: Practicing conversations, expressing your thoughts and becoming more comfortable speaking English.
* Pronunciation: Working on how words are pronounced and helping you speak more clearly.
* Reading and writing: Reading short texts, building sentences and learning how to express yourself in writing.

My teaching plan

We’ll start with the basics and gradually move forward as you improve. Each lesson will include a little explanation, practical exercises and time to actually use what you’ve learned. We’ll also go back to previous lessons whenever needed so you don’t feel lost or overwhelmed.

I especially enjoy helping beginners because I believe everyone can learn a new language with the right guidance, patience and practice.

You don’t need to know everything before joining my classes. Just bring your curiosity and willingness to learn, and we’ll take it from there!

I look forward to meeting you and helping you on your English-learning journey!
