English(Improve Academic/Language skills, Terminology, Proofreading Thesis/Papers ): Beginner/Intermediate/AdvancedEnglish as a language is not only widely spoken but also, has made itself a prerequisite to the international world. Even if it is academic or just a beginner learning it for the first time, I will be helping you learn and master the English language just as I did until I achieved my dream of attending a university in English. Reading, Listening, Writing, and Speaking are essential fundamentals to truly master a language so we will have a lot of experience during our sessions in all of them depending on the student's needs.

English course/English course/academic support: onlineAs soon as you book your session, don't worry about your child's homework.
Fun lessons led by educational games, to learn grammatical rules, verb conjugation and especially communication.
Ahmed Hassan
English for primary and intermediate levels (tenses)Knowing the differences between tenses and applying some tests on tenses in a very simple and easy way for children will help them a lot later on. This lesson is one of the most important topics that must be well established because all sentences are dependent on it later on and it helps in understanding sentences and helps in speaking and knowing the required tense for each sentence.
I have more than two years of experience in explaining such lessons. I studied child psychology, which helps me understand the student’s brain and deliver information in a way that is very appropriate for each student. This is what distinguishes me from others.

German lessons in language & culture with a native speaker, learn online and with joy, exam preparationAs a German teacher with many years of experience, I teach both beginners and advanced learners, and accompany students from different countries in literature, history, reading comprehension and language skills. In my Language and Culture course, I combine learning a foreign language with getting to know German traditions, holidays, history and society, because all of this is part of learning German.
I really enjoy observing the progress of my students and I have accompanied many of them on their journey for many months or even years, which creates a close and trusting relationship between students and teachers and allows them to learn with joy in a relaxed atmosphere!

Memorizing the Holy Quran and teaching Arabic and EnglishIn the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to God. The Arabic language and Islamic sciences are worldly sciences, and a Muslim must be familiar with them and know them so that his life can be straightened out by memorizing the Holy Qur’an and learning the Arabic language. I am also good at teaching Arabic to foreigners and teaching English to beginners.

Erika
Spanish & English Lessons with Erika in Belgium :)Teaching is my passion, and as a native speaker, I've had the pleasure of connecting with students worldwide, starting from my experiences in the Czech Republic where I used to teach English to children.
We can delve into the intricacies of communication, focusing on what matters to you. I prepare students for tests like DELE and SIELE, tailoring my approach to your unique goals—whether it's acing an exam, exploring the world, or simply diving into language and culture.
My lessons take a casual twist—we might stroll around, grab a coffee or tea, and make learning an enjoyable experience. The best part for me is when students express gratitude for our time together. I believe language is more than just words, and I look forward to sharing my perspective with you.
Can't wait to meet you and start this language journey together!
