Language lessons in Zulte

I'm taking Chinese group classes for absolute beginners in Brussels and have had 8 lessons (3hrs/lesson) so far. We're learning vocabulary and grammar, but don't speak much. I came to Stephanie especially to work on the speaking and as such, I have spoken and heard more Chinese in my first 1 hour lesson than in all those classes together I reckon. She forces me to explain things in Chinese and to focus on the important things and not get distracted by details and get ahead of myself, which is exactly what I need. It did feel like I was starting all over again from scratch. It was like hitting the reset button. In the meantime, she has been very patient with me as I have a busy work-schedule and don't have much time to practice. I would like to have more lessons per week, but unfortunately my agenda does not allow that. I can highly recommend Stephanie. -- update after 5 lessons: I still recommend Stephanie with 5 stars. I have learned a lot, not easy, definitely not boring as classroom classes can be, and a lot more helpful. Speaking is learning.

If you are looking for a French language teacher, I highly recommend Cecile 😊 One of the best things about her teaching approach is that she customizes the method to the student’s particular learning needs. She starts by assessing your level, goals, and learning preferences and then designs the lessons based on this. Something else that I appreciate about Cecile is that she uses a wide array of teaching materials, not leaving space for boredom or an incomplete understanding of a topic. She incorporates texts, videos, audio, fun quizzes, and exercises from different sources and genres, covering various aspects of the French language and culture. She also encourages to practice comprehensively - speaking, listening, reading, and writing skills in a balanced way. All in all, if you are after a comprehensive approach to learning and practicing French, this is the right tutor for you!

Kevin is a genius, who is capable of breaking down complex concepts into manageable, useful bits. If you think of a really large basket of vegetables and fruits. You know all the nutrients are good for you, but it would be tedious to try to eat it all raw. But then, you get a juicer or blender or 'Nutribullet', and juice all those vegetables and fruits into a refreshing smoothie. You can then drink that smoothie as quickly or slowly as you wish, and still get all the necessary nutrients... That's what Kevin can do - he juices all the complex intricacies of the German language into something you can understand and digest. His methods are unconventional, but very helpful in laying a proper foundation for a successful language learning journey. Very highly recommended.
