Expert English & Spanish Tutor | Native Fluency & Research-Driven Teaching
Native English and Spanish speaker with years of teaching experience across Europe.
I offer personalized lessons for all ages and learning styles — both online and in-person (based in Ghent).
Whether it’s for exams, work, school, or conversation, I adapt to your goals and pace.
I hold a BA in English Studies, a Master’s in Education, and a second Master’s (MSc) from Ghent University. I first trained as a language teacher, then specialized further in neurolinguistics through the EMCL program — a competitive Erasmus Mundus master’s focusing on how the brain processes language and how we learn it. These studies deepened my understanding of language development across different learners, including those with learning differences like dyslexia or language processing challenges. I’ve also worked with neurodivergent students, including people with autism, and I always aim to create an inclusive and flexible environment that fits individual learning needs. My path has taken me through classrooms in Spain’s Official Language Schools, one-on-one tutoring, and course creation, and all ages ranging from children to retired adults.
Expect structured lessons, a focus on real progress, and a space where you feel supported. From grammar to fluency, writing to pronunciation, we’ll tackle what matters to you. The lessons don't have to be at your home, we can be at a park or grab a coffee or tea, even just take a walk - the important part is letting you enjoy learning.
Let’s get started — message me and we’ll build a plan that works for you.

About Me
Hi!My name is Esther, I'm 27 years old and both English and Spanish are my mother tongue because I grew up in a personal Spanish context and in American schools. I'm learning Dutch and I also know French and some Italian.
I have had my academic education in countries such Finland, Belgium, The Netherlands, Denmark, and Spain; and I have lived in 8 countries, the aforementioned and Luxembourg, United Arab Emirates, Egypt, and Spain.
Due to my background and my knowledge of languages, I understand what it is to be a language learner, as well as the importance of acknowledging different cultural contexts. My main goal in my lessons (aside from the obvious objective of improving your English and/or Spanish) is for you to enjoy the actual learning process. I infuse my lessons with creativity and adaptability. We have objectives that we will certainly obtain, but we will get to them with a solid foundations that will go beyond your lessons with me. It's important to me that you learn in a positive environment that motivates you to go out into the world with your newfound language expertise.

Interactive Spanish lesson (A1-B1) with a focus on speakingHola!
Would you like to learn Spanish in an interactive way with a focus on speaking? Do you love Latin American culture as much as I do? Say no more!
We first look at where you are now and what you would like to achieve and I adjust my lesson based on that. Having lived in Ecuador, I know all too well how important it is to be truly immersed in a language. That's why I think practice is very important: talking about your interests! Because... one learns by doing :D
Not: pure theory and rules while sitting down
Do: theory and practice - we chat a lot and get to work with photos, music, cooking, etc...
The lessons are standard at my home in Ghent Center (negotiable in Aalter). Due to training, I will not be available one Thursday and Friday per month until January '25. The other weeks and on Saturdays.

Martina
Italian ↔ English conversation with chatty Italian living in BelgiumWant to impress your partner with newly discovered romantic Italian compliments? Want to showcase your wine knowledge to your in-laws during a family dinner? Want to be able to order a caffellatte macchiato con latte di soia without having your waiter scoff at you while traveling around Italy? Then starting a conversation with me will be your answer!
I will guide you through the amenities of the Italian language, coming from someone who grew up with it. I am a Bioprocess Engineer, currently employed in Gent at an industrial biotech company. I studied and lived (mostly) in Italy until I was 20 years old, then I moved to Copenhagen to continue my education. I am an Italian native speaker, and I use English in my daily personal and working life.
Talking to someone is the best way you can practice new languages. When I was a teenager I moved to Canada for six months to learn English, and even if I struggled at the beginning, pushing myself to have crooked conversation with friends was the perfect way to start mastering the language.
We can talk about current topics, family, hobbies and the like. If you have specific requirements or interests, we can indeed explore those. Let me know, a presto!
