Chinese (Mandarin) / English homework support / English conversations / English tutoring

I will be teaching Mandarin from the beginning and start explaining how it works. It does not have an alphabet, so be ready to enjoy a whole new different way of learning a language!

You will learn pronouns, numbers, basic grammar, principal verbs, interrogation particles, time particles, and vocabulary, progressively.

I will also be sending some exercises for you to practice what we have learned and have your character writing on point.

------------------

Would you like your children to have some help with their English homework? Or do you want to practice your spoken skills in English with someone? In any case, I will be happy to help!

If there is anything you need, I’m always up for questions and clarifications!

Do not worry about schedules. We can both be flexible whenever necessary. We don’t want to add up stress, but to have a good time discovering these amazing languages!

Extra information

Do not forget to bring a pen/pencil and a notebook.

About Me

I have a passion for languages, but I am also all about people.

This is why I decided to start teaching and tutoring. I enjoy sharing with others what I know, giving explanations, and helping them understand something better through different learning techniques.

Teaching is a very motivating and gratifying activity. There is no better feeling than to see someone else progress with their efforts and your support.

Education

I studied Portuguese, English, and Mandarin in Ecuador during High School for 6 years. My native language is Spanish and the latest language I’ve learned is French.

I did my Bachelor’s Degree on International Applied Management in Universidad de Navarra, in Spain. Then continued to France to do an Erasmus Programme in International Business, to finally do my internship as a Junior Project Manager in Brussels.

Experience / Qualifications

I was a full scholarship grantee to go to Beijing to learn the language in the China University of Petroleum (北京中国石油大学)for one year.

I also got a scholarship to study in the Instituto Brasileiro Equatoriano de Cultura (IBEC) where I completed all the levels.

I started learning French at university during the whole 4 years of the degree and I continued my studies in France. I continue learning the language now in Belgium.

Laura
English Conversation Adults, oral expression, grammar, vocabulary, English expressions
Bachelor in English/Spanish Translation, and holder of a CAP diploma (Certificate of Teaching Aptitudes) I give private English lessons for pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, style, etc. through conversation. I taught English to groups of children in private schools, teenagers in remediation, then adults in the French Community of Belgium for 15 years. Belgian-American, I am native. I have traveled to London many times to visit art galleries and concerts with friends. I have stayed in the USA a large number of times because my family on my father's side lives there and family is important to me. I provide teaching materials if necessary but a financial contribution for copies is required at the start of the course in addition to the amount of each lesson. I correct the errors by proposing one or more alternatives to the erroneous version but I do not cut the person off while they are speaking, I wait for the end of the sentence, the end of the paragraph, so as not to cut them off. fluidity. I also work by theme by providing copies with texts to read or grammar exercises to do, either at the moment or the next time. I give homework if it suits the student, otherwise, all the work is done in class, and the student reviews between sessions, for faster improvement in their level. We can also work on songs based on song lyrics. Texts based on press articles. It is necessary to be curious, to dare to ask questions, to dare to have a thirst for knowledge and a desire to learn, through trial and error. I use innovative methods. If I don't know how to answer a question, I write it down and answer it in the next class.

Practice and improve your English effectively
Having followed an English training from kindergarten to high school, I want to share the bilingualism that was offered to me. Because English is linguistically a major tool and it opens many doors, I want to teach the student how to master it at best. To do this, a course divided into two equal parts, the first to learn grammar and vocabulary and the second to practice.

I know you speak it. I WILL FIX IT! West Coast (California) English. We walk, we talk, I correct! FUN! Learn by playing !
Hello! If you can understand this message without having to translate then you are ready for my help! I am from California, and have been living here in Brussels since 2012. I am 39 years old. I speak West Coast (California) English. It's the English you hear in your favorite California movies. I love to help friends who already speak "european street English" while HAVING FUN! Did you know that 70% of learning a language is learned OUTSIDE of a classroom setting? So I propose we go to the park, we cook together, we go on a bike ride, we draw, we play. And of course we will talk a lot. When I hear an error I will correct you in a fun way, writing things for you, with FUN AND REAL examples, with drawings, ALWAYS STAYING 100% in English. That's correct, I will only speak English to you, because as you and I both know, you already speak English, and you have understood everything (or maybe 70%) of everything I just wrote. What you want is to improve or perfect your spoken English (we can work on writing, too). Immersion and fun, West Coast Style. And my university degree? Yes, I have two of them, in Languages and Literatures, and I speak 4 fully fluent languages, but for now I want you to learn by HAVING FUN! My friends can tell you how fun it is to learn with me. HOPE WE GET TO PLAY TOGETHER SOON! You can do it! Groups ok.

Conversational English - focus: dialogue, vocabulary and pronunciation
I am proposing a conversational class, meant to approach any kind of subject in a calm and relaxed manner; a certain grammar input is obvious, but the goal is to focus on the dialogue, vocabulary and pronunciation. I possess a Cambridge CAE Certificate, the equivalent of C1 level.
