English as a Foreign Language and translation classes

English is the language spoken by the most speakers in the world. It is the main language of communication in many industries and even when traveling the world, many excursions are only available in English.
I have 6 years experience of teaching English to all levels from beginners to advanced learners. I am also fluent in Spanish and French and I have extensive experience of teaching English to beginners in either Spanish or French until the student has the level required for the class to be conducted in English. The class is tailor made to each student's needs as I believe no two students are the same, for example; we can do preparation for IELTS or Cambridge English exams, translation, English literature study or conversation for either work or travel.
I have experience of teaching English to both Spanish and French students for the notoriously difficult teacher exams in both countries (las opposiciones in Spain and l'agregation in France).
I have also prepared students for all levels of the IELTS exams from A1-C2.

About Me

I am a native English speaker with a BA Honours Degree in Language Studies (French and Spanish) from the Open University. I am fluent in Spanish to level C2 on the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages; I am fluent in French to level C1 on the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages and I am fluent in Italian to level A1 on the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages.

I teach English via online platforms to Spanish and French students. At beginner level I teach the students in their native language until they are able to fully conduct the class in English. I have taught a variety of levels from complete beginners to doctors and teachers sitting the high-level Spanish state exams which involve translation skills and an in-depth knowledge of English literature therefore I also have extensive experience in the linguistics and construction of languages.

I am also a freelance translator and transcriber. I have experience of translating and transcribing in the field of immigration and business in the languages of Spanish and English. I undertake work for Translators Without Borders on a voluntary basis therefore I have experience of translating from Spanish to English and French to English in the Humanitarian Aid Sector. I also have a wealth of experience doing revision and proofreading tasks on their platform. Humanitarian Aid and anything to do with the environment is my passion. I have translated a number of sensitive topics and my motivation comes from the thought that I have possibly helped someone somewhere to feel safe or to see a way out of a difficult situation. I am passionate about any topics to do with the environment, immigration, humanitarian aid, science and education.


Soy nativa inglesa y tengo una licenciatura de los idiomas español y francés con matrícula de honor. Hablo español con fluidez de nivel C1/2, hablo francés con fluidez de nivel C1 en el Marco Común Europeo de Referencia para las lenguas y hablo italiano con fluidez de nivel A1 en el Marco Común Europeo de Referencia para las lenguas.

Hago el trabajo voluntario por la empresa los Traductores Sin Fronteras así tengo experiencia de la traducción español al inglés y francés al inglés en el sector de los derechos humanitarios. Finalicé una cantidad de tareas de traducción y revisión que disfruto mucho.

Además del trabajo voluntario, tengo la experiencia amplia de la transcripción y traducción española en el sector del negocio, la cultura e inmigración.
Desde 2018 enseño el inglés a los nativos españoles y franceses a través de las plataformas en línea. Al nivel principiante enseño el inglés a los estudiantes en su lengua nativa hasta que tenían un nivel suficiente para dar la clase entera en inglés. Enseño estudiantes que tenían distintos niveles del inglés de los principiantes a ellos que estudian por las oposiciones de pedagogía.

También trabajaba en una escuela con el currículo nacional y en el papel de una asistente de idiomas enseñé el francés a los niños que tenían entre 9 y 11 años. Un requerimiento clave del papel era mejorar los estudiantes que tenían un nivel más alto del idioma francesa para que logren las notas altas.


Je suis originaire d’Angleterre y j’ai une licence des langues l’espagnole et le français avec spécialité. Je parle l’espagnol couramment au niveau C1/2, je parle le français couramment au niveau C1 et je parle l'italien couramment au niveau A1sur le Cadre Commun Européen de Référence pour les langues.
Je fais le travail bénévole chez les Traducteurs Sans Frontières cependant j’ai expérience de la traduction français/anglais et espagnole/anglais dans le secteur de l’aide humanitaire. J’ai achevé plusieurs tâches de la traduction y la relecture que j’ai aimée beaucoup.
En plus du travail bénévole j’ai l’expérience approfondie de la transcription et la traduction espagnole/anglais dans le secteur du commerce, la culture et l’immigration.
Depuis 2018 j’enseigne l’anglais à travers des tribunes en ligne aux personnes natives de l’Espagne et la France. Au niveau débutant j’enseigne les étudiants en sa langue native jusqu’à ils ont un niveau suffisant pour donner le cours entier en anglais.
Aussi je travaillais dans une école avec le programme national y dans le rôle d’une assistante des langues j’enseignais le français aux enfants qui avaient entre 9 et 11 ans. Un prérequis clé du rôle était améliorer les étudiants qui avaient un niveau plus haut de la langue française pourvu qu’ils réussissent aux bonnes notes.

Private French lessons for adults and teenagers with native French speaker in Co. Mayo
For the past two decades, I've had the privilege of tutoring in both French and English. My students have ranged in age, background, and origin, spanning children, teenagers, adults, professionals, and even seniors aged 85 and above. You might wonder why I teach both languages. Well, I am bilingual, with American and Swiss/French roots, and I currently reside in Ireland. This unique blend of experiences equips me with a strong and relevant teaching approach. I possess an intimate understanding of both cultures, enabling me to tailor my classes to the specific needs of my students. My teaching journey began during my time studying social work in French-speaking Switzerland. I started offering private French and English lessons to supplement my income, and I quickly discovered my passion for it. Even after graduating and embarking on a full-time career, I couldn't bear to give up this rewarding activity. I cherished the opportunity to connect with diverse individuals and assist them in achieving their language goals. In my teaching methodology, interactivity takes center stage. I employ a variety of engaging learning tools, including photos, newspaper articles, music, videos, and more. My approach is highly adaptable, with a focus on addressing each student's unique priorities. Some seek to refine their pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary, while others require assistance with presentations or speeches for school or work. Some simply aspire to acquire a new language to enrich their general knowledge. I also specialize in teaching younger children, a testament to my educational background and experience. What you will gain from my courses extends beyond impeccable pronunciation and enhanced vocabulary and grammar. You'll also acquire a profound understanding of the culture associated with each language. When speaking a language, it's essential to appreciate the lifestyle, traditions, and heritage of the nations where it thrives. French and English are spoken as primary languages in numerous countries worldwide, each with its own unique accent and cultural nuances. The learning process is limitless! In addition to my language instruction, I'm a genealogist and host spiritual (non-religious) seminars in the beautiful West of Ireland. My passion for vegetarian and vegan cuisine adds a flavorful dimension to my life. Furthermore, I hold a degree in Early Childhood Education and have operated a private "Before & Afterschool" facility along with Summer Camps catering to children aged 4 to 12 for many years. I am genuinely excited about the prospect of meeting and working with you!

Giorgia
Italian language lessons from a native speaker - any level
Hello everyone! I'm Giorgia and I come from Torino, Italy. I offer my native knowledge of Italian to any of you, who wants to discover this beautiful language. I teach for all levels, from very beginners to advanced speakers, passing through amateurs or simply curious of any age. I can also help with university exams and school works/assignments. Being a pianist and a piano teacher, I already have lots of experience with teaching and pedagogical approach with the whole range of ages. The lesson is intended to meet the student needs: the focus can be on the grammar, conversation or literature. In case of a middle-level speaker, the lesson will cover all four language's abilities: listening, speaking, writing and reading. My suggestion of a well planned lesson is, for any level, to divide it into two parts: grammar first and then conversation (covering all the abilities mentioned above). Thank you for your attention and looking forward to meeting you !!

Kevin
Non-academic Latin lessons. Multilingual teacher with 9 years of experience. Pronunciation, historical linguistics, conceptual semantics.
Contrary to popular belief, learning Latin is not like learning the phone book by heart. I offer you Latin lessons that are unlike any other. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches: If you take the train back and forth every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options: 1) Learn the schedules by heart. 2) Note that the train arrives every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m. In school pedagogy, in study notebooks and in ordinary courses, it is the first approach which is adopted - in the courses that I offer you, it is the second because it is more economical and faster. My offer is aimed at both students and adults who want to learn the Latin language or deepen their knowledge without time-consuming detours through the insanities of school methods which do not produce results. Learning is easy but unlearning what has become a bad habit is extremely difficult. All the more important it is to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. With my tailor-made teaching you will accelerate your learning in a positive state of mind. I offer individual or group Latin lessons (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive sciences and in particular historical linguistics. What will not be the subject of the course: learn lists of verbs; learn lists of nouns with their gender; learn words with their translations; memory card game; doing school exercises; follow the program in a notebook; impose French grammar on the Latin language. What matters to me in particular: motivate my student and give him a learning rhythm; encourage creativity; make friends with language; letters and their sounds strengthen your memory by working on the phonological loop; teach construction plans instead of having people learn sentences by heart; explain how the language works to make my student independent as quickly as possible; breaking preconceived ideas such as the gammatical gender would have a link with the biological gender, the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, the verbs would be irregular, the declension would be random and therefore to be learned with each verb... ; place practice at the center and articulate grammar around practice. In the context of a first course, you can get a well-founded idea of my pedagogy. I look forward to meeting you.

Arianit
German Language for Beginners (Deutsch - A1 und A2)
German as a foreign language can be hard, especially regarding the grammar part. Always focusing on the structures of the sentences can be challenging and demotivating when trying to connect the sentences in a communication environment. That is why with the help of this class, you'll get more confident in building strong sentences without the stress usually involved. As a foreign speaker of German of over 3 years, there's no other person that understands the struggles better than I do. We will cover all the fundamentals with the background of grammar and syntax so that we are able to create a strong base for future advanced levels.

Improve Your Use of English in a Fun and Simple Way
A common excuse that people for whom English is not their first language use to dismiss their inability to speak and use the language well is, 'After all, it's not my language.' Well, it is, if your successfully getting by from day to day depends on it! The English language is unarguably a universal means of communication and the ability to speak and write it well will always give you an advantage in almost every field of endeavour in life - work, school, with your children and at their school; interacting with neighbours or at the shops and so on. You do not, necessarily have to speak with a crisp British accent, but you do need to be able to speak and write with your tenses, verb-subject agreement, spelling, punctuation etc. in place. My class is designed to help you with this and also, get you beyond just the basics of the use of English, by teaching you about and showing you how to use the different parts of speech, language registers and so on. You will also learn how to pronounce words properly. And all of this in a fun and exciting way! The result will be a better command of the English language and greater self-confidence.
