English - Conversation & Education lessons for Basic, Intermediate and Advanced students

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Want to expand and improve your knowledge of the English language and gain more self-confidence? Which can! With my varied conversation lessons, alternating with reading, listening and short tests, we playfully build on better pronunciation and understanding. The lessons are adapted to your needs and we can certainly work on specific goals.
I have more than 40 years of experience with the English language, have lived in South West England for > 16 years and worked for many years in business in both the UK and the Netherlands. With a lot of hands-on experience with the language and internally improving the language use of international colleagues (Thailand, Philippines, Dutch, etc.), I now also have a TEFL/TESOL Teaching Certificate and have now focused on teaching.

I also enjoy teaching and tutoring in the Dutch language for non-native speakers and am happy to help you broaden your knowledge of not only the language but also Dutch customs and traditions.

About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I teach lessons that are varied in content and therefore certainly remain interesting; with a touch of humor here and there because that is certainly part of the English language. After having lived in various countries, including Portugal, France and the United Kingdom, I now live close to Alkmaar (NH). My knowledge of the English language in particular, but certainly also other languages, has always contributed to good contact with people locally and in the business world, as you always have 'added value'. Now I would also like to teach locally in people's homes and online. By being open to the knowledge, language and customs of other nationalities, I have enriched my life and I would like to pass on this inspiration to others.

I am very happy with Petra's lessons. She responds well to my wishes and what I want to work on, and she is also very understanding. Due to my health, I cannot always follow the lessons. I find it very valuable that Petra takes this into account and that I can then follow lessons at another time.

Petra has been great helping me gain confidence in Dutch and teaching me Dutch grammar. She prepares great lessons, with interesting material and is able to explain things in a calm and friendly manner. I am looking forward to continuing my studies with Petra.
