English Reading to young learners and business communicating & negotiating skills for adults

From 29 £ /h

1) I specialise in tutoring reading lessons for young learners. My goal is to keep them occupied, leading them through the lesson by asking questions and to understand what they are reading in a Story Book.
I will communicate with them throughout the class, focusing on the fact that they must do most of the reading/talking and having fun while doing it. I assign homework after every lesson and provide progress reports.
2) With adults I will talk about my business experiences of being a Sales Consultant for over 30 years communicating with clients to improve your business relationships and other related topics to improve their English communicating and negotiating skills.

I teach Dutch to children, adapted to the level of the child, the age and the goals that wish to be achieved. The lessons can be given entirely in Dutch, or with explanations and translations in English where necessary (if the child speaks English). With young children I often use cheerful images, games and songs to learn the language in a playful way. From experience, this also works fine online, via video calls.
If you send me a message, we can discuss the options together.

At the moment, I only have time available on weekdays in the morning or early afternoon, for which I have lowered the rate.

Arabic becomes much easier when speaking, listening, reading, writing, grammar, and vocabulary are developed as connected skills rather than taught as isolated rules.

I am a native Arabic speaker, PhD-qualified engineer, university professor, researcher, and multidisciplinary tutor with more than 30 years of experience in teaching, training, mentoring, academic work, and personalized learning.

This class is designed for children, teenagers, university students, professionals, heritage learners, and adult learners who want to build a clear and confident command of Arabic. Lessons can be taught in Arabic, English, or French, allowing explanations to be adapted to the learner’s linguistic background and level.

Depending on your objectives, we can focus on one specific pathway or combine several skills into a structured learning program.

• Developing formal and academic Arabic
• Personalized progression for learners raised outside the Arab world

My teaching approach follows a clear progression:
understand → hear → pronounce → read → use → write → analyze → communicate independently

I do not teach Arabic as a disconnected collection of vocabulary lists and grammar rules. I connect language structure to meaningful texts, conversation, writing, and real communication. Depending on the learner’s age and level, lessons may include guided dialogues, fully vocalized texts, visual explanations, reading passages, grammar analysis, structured exercises, dictation, storytelling, writing tasks, and personalized practice.

We can work with your school curriculum, university course, textbook, reading difficulties, grammar questions, writing samples, professional objectives, heritage-language needs, or personal learning goals.

Whether you are learning your first Arabic letters, improving conversation, strengthening reading, mastering grammar, developing academic writing, or reconnecting with Arabic as a heritage language, I will adapt the sessions to your level, objectives, pace, and preferred learning style.

My goal is to help you understand Arabic as a living, structured, and expressive language—and to use it with increasing accuracy, confidence, and independence.
