About Me

Creative entrepeneur, passionate about - digital - arts, like drawing with illustrator. I was a pioneer and started learning this program in 1997 and it was really hard...took me a while, because there where no courses, no internet or anyone to ask questions. So practice do make perfect and I overtimee I started to learn others this amazing programm. Teaching is in my blood and try to explain everything in a simple clear way, step by step I will guide you through the programm.
I have been working in the fashion industry for 25+ years as a footwear designer / Head design and travelled from China/Hong Kong to south Europe for production. Now I focus on teaching and try to do this with tons of energy and have my own style, which is fun and engaging.
No matter you are a beginner or a pro, I will try to help you.

The course is cutom made and I will totally adjust the information to your needs, whether you're a fashion designer, graphic designer, just interested in learning this. And even if you are a pro, I probably can learn you some new tricks.

And i love coffee - and dogs, I'm a positive person and like people, so hopefully we can have a great time together during this course. Check out the feedback from former students and you can always ask me questions.

She is very experience and she explained very well ,I enjoyed my class with her.
Always wanted to learn how to draw by hand? I'll take you step-by-step through the art of drawing. We will work in Black & White with materials you can find at home. No experience needed or expensive materials. We look at examples in art history and drawing techniques will be explained. You will be working on different exercises and it will be fun. Also for more experienced students, this is an excellent course: you will be surprised by what you can learn! Module 1 = 10 classes (45 min)
Are you a (fashion) designer and still drawing by hand? Then now it's time to go digital! Learn how to draw CADs or become a pro in illustrator. It has a lot of advantages for beginners and for (semi)professionals who already started a business aswell. Looking for a job as a fashion designer? Most big fashion companies work with Adobe Illustrator nowadays. Now you can too! First you'll learn the basics of this program in an efficient and fun way. You'll learn all the tools that you need and will get practical expert advice during the course! So after this course you will have the skills and confidence to start working your dreamjob! No experience needed, we start from scratch - step by step I'll guide you through this amazing program! After attending the basic course, you can specialize in: - Graphic Design _ Illustrations/Animated characters or: - Shoe designs - Bags design - Apparel design I'm a professional fashion & graphic designer, + 20 years - been working with major (international) leading brands in the industry. As a teacher, been working with a lot of (fashion) companies, where I teached illustrator at design departments, aswell as private tutoring to (young)professionals and students in Europe/China. For information, or if you have questions, don't hesitate to contact me! Lessons are in dutch or english.
This class is suitable for (absolute) beginners, mediate users or advanced users of Illustrator. I will customize all classes to your level and objectives so you'll learn all you need in a short time, compared to groups lessons who have a more generic approach. If you work on a marketing department and just want to learn basics or you are a graphic designer and want to learn more tips/tricks or you're just interested and want to refresh your knowledge. All is possible, drop me a line and I'm sure we'll find the right approach for you!

Kevin
Polyglot specialist with 9 years of experience. German in speed mode. Level A1 to C2. No school teaching.
I offer you a German course that is not like the others. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches: If you travel back and forth by train every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options: 1) Memorise the timetable. 2) Realise that the train comes every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m. In school pedagogy, in textbooks and in normal lessons, the first approach is used - in the course I am offering you, it is the second approach because it is more economical and faster. My offer is aimed at both pupils and adults who want to learn the German language without time-consuming detours through the madness of fruitless school methods. Learning is easy, but unlearning things that have become bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, with my customised lessons you will greatly accelerate the learning process while having a positive attitude. I offer German lessons for individuals or groups (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive science and historical linguistics in particular. My modular programme can be adapted on a case-by-case basis. The converging point of these modules is your independence in spontaneous conversations in real life. What will not be covered in the course: learning lists of verbs; learning lists of nouns with articles; learning words with their translations; flashcards; doing school exercises; following the syllabus of a booklet; imposing the English grammar on the German language. What is particularly important to me: to motivate my student and to give him a learning rhythm; to encourage his creativity; to befriend him with the language; the letters and their sounds; to strengthen the memory by training the phonological loop; to teach blueprints instead of memorising sentences; to explain how the language works in order to make my student independent as quickly as possible; to eliminate common preconceptions, such as that 'der' would mean masculine and 'die' feminine, that the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, that verbs would be irregular, that declension would be random and therefore would have to be learnt with each verb...; to put practice at the centre and only deal with grammar where necessary. A first lesson will give you a sound idea of my pedagogy.

✨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 !

Albanian/"Shqip"(Improve Academic/Language skills, Proofreading): Beginner/Intermediate/Advanced
Albanian as a language is very distinguishable as it has its own branch in the Indo-Europian language tree. It is an ancient language transferred from the Illyrians who lived in the Balkan peninsula. As it is my native language, I have always helped and tutored people who are ethnically Albanian but have been raised outside of Kosovo or Albania and do not have a complete understanding of their mother tongue. Together, we will focus on all fundamentals, including the core bases of Reading, Listening, Writing, and Speaking. Throughout lessons, we will practice together with additional homework. I am looking forward to meeting you soon. "Jeni të mirëseardhur!".
