Kickstart your Korean! 1 to 1 tutoring online or in-person (+ bring your friend for a group discount!)
여러분, 안녕하세요?
🇰🇷 Do you want to start learning Korean and do you want to do it in an organised way?
🇰🇷 Did you already get started on learning but you got stuck on a particular grammar?
🇰🇷 Are you aiming for a TOPIK 1-2 language exam and do you want to get prepared in as short and effective a time as possible?
As a language tutor with over 10 years of didactic experience and a TOPIK level 5 language exam, I can help you overcome difficulties and reach your goals.
My love with Korean language and culture started more than 10 years ago thanks to my amazing Korean friends that I made during my first exchange year in Japan. Fast forward to 2016, I spent one semester in Korea as part of my individual research trip abroad to collect materials for my PhD which later turned into another semester of working holiday as an English tutor. This year spent in Korea was my real motivation to start learning the language properly so that I could connect more to the locals. For me this was a very enjoyable, but at the same time challenging process. As a result, I can completely relate to your struggles. That is why I like to make sure that I teach my students in the way that I wish I had learned when I was a beginner.
I can assist you with grammar, pronunciation, and script (but also hanja and cultural notes) up to a TOPIK level 1-2. If you have a favourite vlogger, comedian or song that you want to translate in class, that is also no problem: my classes are very open to your input to turn your progress into a really personal experience.
- I will create a Google Classroom for our classes where you can keep track of all the materials, whiteboards and homeworks. Here you will always receive customised feedback from me on your homework before the next class
- Learning with me pretty much includes a 24hrs Korean hotline for all kinds of urgent questions about homework, grammar, culture and more :)

About Me
I am a friendly, enthusiastic and encouraging teacher with 12 years of professional teaching experience.Among the six languages I speak, Japanese is definitely my speciality since it has a very special place in my life. Starting from Bachelors up to completing the coursework of a Ph.D. in Japanese Studies, I have devoted more than ten years to learn more about the language and culture of this incredible people.
During this time, not only did I get a chance to work and study in Japan for two years, but also to open my eyes to other exciting cultures as well. This is how I found myself on a year-long working holiday in Korea where I was volunteering on farms and teaching English, and spending a month in a Taiwanese Buddhist monastery. These episodes have given me a lot of experiences and insights that I love to share and discuss with others.
Being a polyglot and great linguistic nerd myself, I design my classes in such a fashion that I would also enjoy taking part in them. I use lots of real-life materials (books, comics, movies, music, podcasts, you name it) that I maximally tailor to my student's needs and first-hand stories that put these into perspective. Last but not least, I like to keep the classes informal and informative at the same time.

With him we found the best match for my half Hungarian/half Dutch teen-daughter. She is happy with Akos and stays motivated week by week :)
I have nothing but good things to say about Akos. He is kind, patient and has a huge passion for everything Japan. I hope to learn from him for a long time to come!

Great teacher, he's patient and supportive. Lessons are fun, interesting and he has a great knowledge about Japan, which he likes to share.
Akos makes the classes a fun learning experience. It's very casual and easy paced. He also shares additional knowledge about the geography, culture and history.
° sympathetic, joy to listen to
° good and interesting explanations
° at ease, no pressure, very patient person
° personal follow-up, own pace and interests
° I took several classes, cannot else but highly recommend this teacher !!!

No one: ...
Hungarians: “Megszentségteleníthetetlenségeskedéseitekért!“
The fact that you have found my profile means that you are intrigued by Hungarian to some extent. Me as a polyglot linguist who is also a native speaker of this exciting and colourful language do share your appreciation.
- Are you planning a vacation (or even moving) to Hungary and want to make the most of your experience with being able to communicate with the locals? (Believe me, they will really appreciate it!)
- Are you interested because you want to speak to your significant other in their native language, or perhaps to rediscover your own roots?
- Do you want to pick up a new challenge and learn a language that is known for its complexity?
Whatever your goal, we can reach it together! Despite its notorious reputation among linguists and non-linguists alike, I can help you tame the beast and show you that the language of the Magyars in fact is way more systematic than many (including Hungarians) would like to admit ;)
I have tutored over a dozen students in Hungarian from various nationality backgrounds across 3 continents, and I have a proven set of methods/materials for each of the 6 CEFR levels. The class contents are tailored to your own goals, pace and interests. As a rule of thumb, I like to start out with easy-paced classes for which no previous linguistic knowledge is necessary, so you can feel at ease while warming up to Hungarian. But since I am familiar with various layers of the language, we can also take a step forward and dive into more spicy topics such as etymology, descriptive grammar, poetry (you name it) if you are interested. In any case, you can expect a structured approach with clear and doable aims, lots of first-hand cultural notes and personalised home assignments that help your progress.
If you want to start to learn Hungarian, don’t hesitate to send me a mail!
Whatever your Japanese level, whatever your goals with learning, I am more than sure we can achieve them together. For example:
- Are you planning to take a JLPT exam anywhere from N5 to N1?
- Need a quick brush-up for your job or scholarship interview?
- Upcoming trip to Japan and you wish you could break the ice with locals in their language?
- Do you want to understand what they are talking about in your favourite TV show without subtitles?
- Or... you simply fell in love with this incredible language and want to start learning it from scratch in a structured way?
If you answered yes to any of the above questions, then you can already rest assured that you have found the right tutor. On top of these, the range of possible directions our classes can take is even broader: I can introduce you to Japanese interpretation prepping, help you to improve your understanding of written Japanese in a more structured way, or if you’re a kanji nerd like I am, talk about their history for hours.
I have been a Japanologist *slash* lover-of-all-things-Japanese for more than 17 years and as such I am familiar with a very broad range of linguistic and cultural layers of the country (oh, and if there is one that I am not, then I will most definitely be more than happy to look into it). So do not hesitate to leave a message if you want to learn with me.

Private online mathematics lessons - Qualified and experienced teacherI am a qualified and experienced mathematics tutor. Graduated from the Free University of Brussels in 2011, I started my career by teaching remedial courses in different schools in Brussels. I then specialized in individual academic support by following educational training at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. I have been giving private mathematics lessons daily for over ten years.
The students who follow my private lessons benefit from personalized support. The first session is devoted to an in-depth assessment of the student's mathematical knowledge. The objective is to detect its weak points and understand their origin in order to adapt my courses to its needs. I develop a tailor-made remediation program for each of my students aimed at filling each of their gaps. Over the course of the sessions, the student builds a solid foundation for learning and regains self-confidence. At the same time, I help him acquire a work methodology that allows him to gradually become autonomous in his studies.
I have a perfect knowledge of the mathematics program of the College and the High School (from the Sixth to the Terminale). During my formative years, I studied and developed many techniques that make it easier to learn math. The strength of my pedagogical approach lies in my ability to explain in a simple way everything that the student finds complicated. I am passionate about this job because it gives me the opportunity to guide dropout students on the path to success. It is a real pleasure to see them evolve and come to terms with the fantastic world of mathematics.
I provide my private lessons in Limoges (at the student's home) or remotely (online via the internet). My distance learning courses take place on an interactive online whiteboard. This board is specially designed to promote student/teacher interaction on the internet. Thanks to this educational tool, my online courses are as effective as home courses. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to take advantage of it.

✨French teacher - Pass the DELF or DALF (French diploma) - Individual or group session. ✨Hello, I am Majda, French language teacher. I have been giving private lessons online since 2018.
I offer special sessions that meet your needs and objectives to successfully complete your DELF (Diplôme d'Etudes en Langue Française) or DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language), including the TCF (French Knowledge Test). I have been supporting many interested people of different nationalities thanks to online courses since 2018; For me, helping enthusiasts to practice the French language is a very good experience because I understand that success is a capital objective in the life of ambitious people.
I speak Arabic, French, Spanish, and also English. I explain my lessons in the language of your choice. And at the end of each session, I give lessons with exercises to do as homework to examine your gaps and monitor your progress.
Here are some things to know about the DELF and DALF:
The DELF (Diploma of Studies in French Language) and the DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language) are two official and quality diplomas. They are harmonized on the levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. They include the following six levels, in ascending order: A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2. These two diplomas are suitable for all ages and all audiences.
In addition, the DELF B2, and increasingly the DALF C1, allow students to enter French, European or French-speaking universities, and certain Grandes Ecoles.
Will you have DELF or DALF exams to pass? Do you need to follow specific sessions with me to improve your level?
Don't hesitate to book your sessions so that we can start the preparation.
I am available !

Authentic Korean lessons by an experienced native tutor, with summary noteHello, I'm Yeon, a native Korean tutor with 4 years of experience.
In my lessons, you'll learn authentic and respectful Korean that goes beyond textbooks. I'll help you communicate naturally and confidently, while also gaining insights into Korean culture, society, and history to understand the language in its true context.
Who I am:
I spent my entire life living and working in Korea, giving me a deep understanding of Korean society and culture. I have a deep love for the Korean language and have enjoyed improving and polishing Korean sentences since childhood, which naturally led me to teaching Korean. I also enjoy visiting historical sites, hiking in the outdoors, and digging for clams in summer. I’d love to share my insights and experiences with you.
What you'll get in the lessons:
- Personalized lessons for all levels, from beginner to advanced
- Practice forming and using correct sentences in speaking, writing, listening, and reading with a focus on accurate pronunciation
- Learn polite and natural expressions that native speakers use, many phrases in Korean textbooks for foreigners aren't appropriately polite
- A summary note after each lesson to review and practice
- Anytime, via Zoom at your locaton
How to improve your Korean:
People often get so caught up in the methodology of learning another language, but it's not about what method you use. It's about how much input you get and how often you practice it.
Lesson Details:
I'm in Korea, in the Korea Standard Time (KST) zone. Punctuality is important, so I expect students to be on time and stick to the schedule. My English is at an intermediate level and I have a Korean accent.
Thank you,
Yeon

English lessons for all levels and all purposes (Progress guaranteed)I give English lessons in Tunis or online to all levels varying from beginner to advanced individually or for a group. The lesson can be done in the customers house depending on their preference. Lessons will generally last between 90 to 120 minutes depending on what the student wants. The way I teach is not a conventional way. I usually try to involve my students as much as possible in my lessons and try to make them independent so that they continue progressing even after we are done with the lessons. I can guarantee your progress during these English lessons in exchange I only ask for your motivation and your willingness to progress
