Online English and Spanish Classes with a Native Speaker!
Hello! Everyone would describe me as an enthusiastic person, and I do have a very cheerful personality, and I’ll reflect this in my classes as a way to encourage you to express yourself in any of these languages and lose your fears. I love teaching my students and exposing them to diverse cultural aspects and also learning about other places with them. I like to teach my students some standard English or Spanish content through writing and reading activities, but my favorite part is giving you access to conversational everyday language, so your vocabulary and other competencies can expand and you can become a fluent and confident speaker. I am here to personalize my teaching methods according to your learning style, expectations and goals. Whether it is Conversational, professional English, or if you want to improve your grammar and reading skills. I cannot wait to see you in class soon.

Are you trying to level up quickly to beat your peers in chess? You just found recently the game exciting and wanna learn more about it? Or are you preparing for a company or informal/formal chess tournament? I've got your back. With my personalized training, you will be able to improve your game in a few weeks. I will provide you with the tactics, strategies, openings, material, and a training plan so you can study on your own and become a better player in no time. What is in the training lessons: - Measure of your current level - Finding your playing style - Personalized training plan (openings, middle game, end game, tactics, strategy, time management) - Level up your skill and depth of thought (being able to think many moves beyond your opponent) - If you want to improve your blitz/bullet level I can also help you with that! About me: As a seasoned chess player with over 15 years of experience, I have honed my skills and competed in various international tournaments, showcasing my love for the game. However, my passion for chess has transcended competition, and in 2018, I made the decision to transition into a career as a professional chess tutor. Now, I find great joy in sharing the intricacies and beauty of chess with my students, and helping them to develop their own strategies and techniques. It's incredibly fulfilling to see my students grow in their understanding of the game and to watch their progress over time. We can even try an online lesson if you don't want to spend time commuting. I know how difficult is to find the right mentor and therefore I offer you this option to help you. Looking forward to meeting you and helping you improve your chess skills soon. Talk to you soon, Leo

Santiago
Conversational virtual classes in English for young people and adults
Hi, My name is Santiago and I am offering individual and personalized virtual English classes to improve both your oral and written communication. The main focus of my classes is on developing English language communication in a fluid and structured way, whether to prepare for international exams, including the TOEFL and the FCE, or to be able to communicate adequately in the professional field, or to reinforce and maintain prior knowledge of this language. I have a degree, graduated from Florida Gulf Coast University in the USA. Having learned English since I was a child at the Ivy Thomas Memorial School and lived for a year and a half in Thailand, followed by 4 years in the USA, I acquired great knowledge and fluency in the English language. In Thailand I spent a year and a half studying communication arts and this helped me prepare for my studies in the US I had several communication classes, learning techniques on how to speak better using not only our words, but also our body to help us speak in a way more natural, calm and without getting nervous if we get stuck or forget what we wanted to say. During my career in the US I was constantly writing essays for my classes, in addition to having to present projects in front of my teachers and classmates. At the same time, I was working at university and after graduating I worked for a year, mainly having long conversations on the phone with people from all over the country. Nowadays the ability to communicate in English is essential and I will prepare you so that you can meet your objectives. It could be studying abroad, going to live in an English-speaking country, improving communication in the professional field or practicing so as not to lose the level previously acquired. If what you are looking for is to improve your knowledge of the English language, I am going to help you. My methodology is simple. Each person is different and I adapt the content of my classes to the needs and interests of my students. We all learn in different ways and at different times, that is why I design my classes individually.

English as a foreign language, helping you to build confidence to use your skills
Dear client, Since I decided to follow my passion in languages & people, which in turn led me on this incredible journey of teaching English as a foreign language, I have never looked back. As a young man I moved abroad with my family which put me in sometimes difficult situations until I was comfortable with the new language (Spanish). Therefore I know how it feels to be on the other side, to lack confidence, to not understand everything. This is why I have patience, allow my students to feel comfortable and instill them with the confidence to make mistakes as they go on their own journey learning a new language. In the last four years, I have been lucky enough to experience teaching students from all classes, backgrounds, ages and levels. Also, from modern classrooms to public schools & kindergartens, with either minimal or high tech materials. In the end, none of those things are important as long as the teacher possesses the confidence, energy, patience and flexibility to use whatever they have at their disposal to make a fun & engaging lesson for their students. This is why I believe I would be an asset to your company, after teaching in Vietnam & Spain I am now ready for my next challenge as I hope to settle in Berlin for some time to come.

English, French lessons for all levels/Arabic for beginners
I can help you improve your writing and get rid of the grammatical errors. I can also help you ameliorate your speaking as we can practice and discuss several different topics. In the French and English class, depending on your level, we can work on whichever area you wish to work on. I can also prepare lessons depending on what you’d like to do or if you do not have a specific plan in mind, I can create the schedule for the classes. In the Arabic class, I can help you with the more basic details and the tutoring would be more of an introduction to the language.
