About Me
Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Retired translator/journalist, father of 4 children (all university students), I have always been convinced that knowledge, like culture, is meant to be shared. It is therefore with great pleasure that I strive to share what I think I master best, namely languages.Supporter of a study of the language based on practical exercises rather than on the assimilation of sometimes somewhat tedious rules (an unfortunately essential step for good mastery of the language), I believe that homework is part of the learning process. learning, which implies a certain motivation on the part of the student.

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I'm really enjoying my lessons with Claude. My french has really improved in the months I've been studying with him. He always takes the time to explain new concepts and vocabulary carefully (and where possible in French). I'm sure I will be continuing my lessons with Claude for the foreseeable future!
Claude's lesson has been a really nice experience. He provides both a great mix of listening, speaking and practical learning activities and a very safe, supportive learning environment.
Spelling problems? Poor language skills? Does studying the rules seem tedious or even boring to you? That's understandable, but this might change your mind. Retired translator/journalist, I help you in the systematic study of grammar, with exercises, explanations and homework. Oral and written communication based on practice and exercises.
Follow-up of tutoring provided and detailed review of unmastered material.
Correction of pronunciation if necessary.
Classes can be given in English or Italian if necessary.
No very young children.

Professional & Academic English with American Instructor and JournalistI am a native American English speaking instructor, editor, journalist, and legal/policy expert from Florida specializing in instruction, interview and exam prep, consulting and text correction for a wide range of professionals & students across Belgium including in the legal, academic, policy, and other fields.
My past & present clients have included: professionals and politicians from all four major EU institutions, the Belgian government, the UNHCR, and various NGOs, alongside diplomats, doctors, journalists, and engineers, as well as a variety of other professions in addition to traditional students..I have had over 50+ repeat students on Apprentus (which recently changed their algorithm to only display the last six months).
Approaching from a true native's perspective, I instruct and assist with both educational and business English in a multi-faceted nature covering a wide range of areas including comprehension, conversation, grammar, and situational skills, in addition to working on general language skills and accent training. As well, I can provide extensive help and training with the EPSO, IELTS, and TOEFL exams.

Eléa
English courses for all levels, for children and adultsHello,
Let me introduce myself, my name is Eléa, I am 27 years old and have a master's degree in biology, specializing in ecology and biodiversity.
I teach English here for anyone who wants to learn or improve their level.
I speak fluent English, in addition to having obtained a C1 in IELTS, I studied my master's degree in English. I also lived for 6 months in South Africa, working in a South African association.
Regarding the course of my courses, everyone learns best in their own way and it is therefore important for me to know each student to know which method(s) to use during our courses (auditory, visual and/or kinesthetic learning). But also to know what the level of the student is to be able to adapt my courses to each student.
I think that the methods used at school are not necessarily the most fun and I think that the films, series and books that we like are more interesting to study in order to improve.
I therefore propose to learn or improve your level in oral and/or written comprehension,
using what interests you. Do you like reading Harry Potter, watching Star Wars for the 30th time, or do you want to finally understand the lyrics to that song you love so much? Well, that's what we'll use to help you learn without feeling like you're working.
Regarding oral expression, each session will be on a different subject, which can be chosen in advance depending on what the student wishes to improve.
If you are interested in my profile, do not hesitate to contact me,

English: pronunciation (British or American). No grammar lessons. Adults only.I have facilitated workshops and given classes throughout my career all over the world.
English pronunciation is essential these days because English is spoken everywhere and all the time.
I followed specialized training such as the verb tonal method, Feldenkrais or mental coaching.
We are therefore going to work in a slightly different way by combining articulatory techniques, movement, rhythm, intonation, warming up of the jaw and tongue, stretching of the neck, neck and shoulders to arrive to very fast results.
Elisa
English - learn by doing (from perfecting the language to teaching the basics to upgrading)In the case of tutoring, I base my lessons on the subject seen by the student by explaining to him in another way with many examples and by making him practice as much as possible.
In case of learning the basics, I have set up my own totally interactive method so that the student can practice and during which I speak almost only in English to be close to immersion during the lessons.
Do not hesitate to contact me for:
- learn the basics
- prepare for a test
- have support for your lessons
- practice the language
- ...
Whatever your needs, I take a practical and fun approach to English because, in my opinion, it is the best way to learn.

I was born and raised in Glasgow, Scotland where I have worked until today, after traveling and working in Asia and the Middle East in recent years. I have always given conversational practice lessons to students whose language I do not speak. Indeed, my mother tongue is English and I do not speak French or Dutch :) My method therefore involves a total immersion in the English language which will help you use the right tenses, the right formulas and idiomatic expressions and to perfect your fluency and your accent. I teach online or at my home in Ixelles. Looking forward to meeting you! See you soon.

Feel stuck? Let's take your English to the next levelSince I believe that the learning environment is one of the keys to successful language learning, I endeavor to make students feel comfortable and content in my lessons: to ask questions if they are unsure and keep an easy but rewarding pace of learning.
Depending on how my students feel they learn English most effectively, I adapt my lessons to use materials that give them the best results possible. For instance, some students find the continuity of a coursebook effective, while others prefer to be more flexible with articles and podcasts. I know from experience that every student is unique.
