Reviews (19)

Smart, knowledgeable, entertaining and very practical. You cant wish for a better teacher.
Melissa is clear, friendly, humorous and she really passes on the feeling of wanting to get better to me. It's my first experience learning this way, but it certainly works well for me! Teaching is a profession and Melissa has absolutely mastered this! In short, Melissa is top class for me!
Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Melissa is a very intelligent and bright person. She's lively and just generally a positive person. She's patient in teaching, but also very accurate. She makes herself easy to understand and goes out of her way to make sure you understand all the material. Also the conversations and exercises in Spanish are never boring, so that really helps! I love the lessons and I'd recommend any person who wishes to learn the language to consider taking lessons from her.
I'd like to say that I had my first ever Spanish class with Melissa and I loved it! She's very kind and knowledgeable, combine this with a good doze of humour and your Spanish class is going to be so enjoyable (= I'm a total newby regarding the Spanish language and was a bit nervous but she made me feel super comfortable. She also provides the les materials herself and I can't wait for my next Spanish class! I highly recommend her, she's great and very patient as well (;
Super nice teacher!

SPANISH APPENDICES FOR BEGINNERS AND / OR ADVANCED PERSONS
In my lessons I will teach you Spanish. We adjust the lessons depending on your goal, level and pace. I teach in English, but my mother tongue is Spanish. In the lessons we deal with grammar and vocabulary. And several practical exercises. Students who need tutoring, just like adults who want to learn fluent Spanish, can come to me. For more information, send me a message :)

Marcelo
Learn Portuguese 10 weeks - private or group lessons -- professional with teaching qualification - 23 years of experience - online or hybrid
Oi Tudo bem? My name is Marcelo and I am from São Paulo. I teach Portuguese and Brazilian Portuguese in The Hague and Rotterdam. Fortunately, I can combine my university studies and 23 years of practical teaching experience in such a way that the lessons are well-founded and stimulating. I have lived and studied in Brazil and Portugal (Coimbra), so I am a native speaker, with a lot of knowledge of the associated culture. By twist of fate, I am also bilingual, so I can explain grammar in Dutch and vice versa. My training is focused on speaking skills. For years I also gave business training at two very well-known language schools, so I know how to transfer a lot of knowledge in a short time. As a student you will feel this immediately from the first lesson. Learning Portuguese for business or urgently (within 10 working days) is also possible. I have a Chamber of Commerce and VAT number. I have a lot of experience teaching lessons via Teams of Whereby (Whereby is more professional and European), even before the crisis because I also teach students in other countries. For virtual lessons, you will receive a transcript of the lesson by email after the lesson. Classes at my home are also possible with 6 feet of distance and good circulation. My lessons are very structured and step by step. In addition, I always explain the 'why' of a grammatical topic, which creates a link that also works better for memory and makes the lesson more interesting. Because I am so results-oriented, I try to gently guide trainees up the stairs to full speaking skills and my job is to make the lessons as educational and attractive as possible. Abraços (kind regards) Marcelo

Learn Italian from a Roman artist in Rotterdam - order your coffee like a pro
Ciao! I have been teaching Italian for the past twelve years. I have taught privately and at language schools like La Scuola Italiana del Greenwich Village in New York and ItalCultura, the school of the Italian Cultural Institute of Chicago. During the first few lessons I will make sure you have the tools to pronounce and identify all the sounds of the Italian language. This step is essential! And it will make everything easier afterwards. When I teach Italian I try to avoid all the things that I hated as a language student. We will use real songs, real literature, do real conversation and storytelling. When you are engaging all your senses it is easier to keep your mind relaxed and to remember new words. I will customize my materials to your interests, needs and desired pace. And because you are learning from a native Italian you will also learn about Italian culture and history. You will absorb a way of thinking, not just grammar rules. I speak a bunch of languages so I know a thing or two about how tedious language classes can be. My terrifying French teacher in middle school made us repeat the same fake dialogue from a really bad book ad nauseam, over and over and over again. Some of those dialogues are carved in my brain: “Bonjour, je m’appelle Richard Drapeau, je viens du Canada, je suis Canadien...” When I teach Italian I try to avoid all the things that I hated as a language student. We will use real songs, real literature, do real conversation and storytelling and we will go on “talking walks” because when you are engaging all your senses it is easier to keep your mind relaxed and to remember new words. I hold a degree in Lingue e Letterature Straniere (Foreign Languages and Literatures) from Università Roma Tre (equivalent to an American MA) and a Master’s of Fine Arts in Interdisciplinary Arts and Media from Columbia College Chicago. I wrote a thesis about translating a long epic poem by W. H. Auden and I tried to ride a horse across America.

Spanish lessons in Rotterdam: all levels! Conversation based
As a native Spanish, I offer lessons based on speaking -with the necessary amount of grammar, of course- adapting to all levels. For everyone who is willing to be able to understand and communicate themselves in the language, whatever the reason is. I do not offer preparation for official exams though, as I do not own the material right now. My mother tongues are Spanish and Catalan, and during the lesson we would use English as the side vechicle. I have been helping students as a private tutor for around 6 years now, and would be very happy to help more people interested in learning! Do not hesitate to contact me.

SPANISH LESSONS THROUGH TRAVEL AND ACCENTS
I present to you my Spanish lessons which are accessible to all, simple, effective and fun. Work on pronunciation, verbs, tenses in writing as well as orally. Learning an idiom is not just words, it's understanding a whole way of thinking, and an art of expressing one's thoughts in order to refine these relationships through conversation, in a language that is not there. OUR . Hoping to transmit to you my passion that I cultivate for this language. Thanking you for your interest Distinguished greetings. See you soon Jason

Italian Lessons for Beginners, High School Students, University Students and Enthusiasts
Do you want to learn Italian from scratch? Are you already familiar with the basics, but you want to bring your knowledge to the next level? Do you need help for an exam? For these or similar needs I have very structured methods that might be just perfect for you. The assignments or tasks are always based on the main goal which is becoming confident with speaking, writing and reading in real life situations. I'm originally trained as an educator for children and I love teaching trough games and creativity. This is of course also applicable for adults or students on a higher level. To have fun during the learning process is the most important thing for me.

Vuoi parlare l'italiano? Italiano con Rob per tutti
Ciao, my name is Roberto :) 
I graduated in Political and Economic Science at the University of Milan. After working for a year for an American company in Milan, I moved to Australia, where I have worked, studied and traveled for two years.
It has been an incredible experience! I had the opportunity of visiting beautiful places, discovering so many different cultures and developed myself from a personal and professional point of view.
Since two years, I have been living in Haarlem - a wonderful city close to Amsterdam - and to the coast 🌊 - in the Netherlands. I love teaching and helping people to find out more about Italian culture, history, and arts. I would love to use all the modern techniques of teaching that I learned and practiced them with you. Teaching is an extraordinary passion! Parliamo italiano!
