    Highly qualified and experienced native English speaking Dyslexic and Learning Difficulties Specialist

    I am a native english speaker and have had significant experience in tutoring children, teenagers and adults with a vast range of learning challenges, including various levels of aspergers and autism, dyspraxia, ADD/ADHD, dyslexia, dyspraxia, auditory processing weakness, sensory integration struggles, as well many children with no specific diagnosis, but who seem to simply struggle generally with reading, writing and spelling. I also trained and qualified in Sensory Integration through Therapeeds and completed the Neuroscience Approach to Reading Intervention. I am also fully certified in the Wilson Reading Method, the Orton-Gillingham Dyslexic Training method and the The Nancibell - Visualizing and Verbalizing Program for Cognative development, comprehension and thinking.

    I believe the combination of all my hands on experience and training, as well as my additional courses of Sensory Integration Training etc., has truly given me a unique knowledge and experience base which I use to add an extra level of understanding when tutoring my students.
    I do particularly enjoy, and have been very successful in working with, students that might be regarded as extra challenging. I have a genuine love of what I do, as well as a high level of curiosity which I believe makes me that much more effective as a teacher.

    I am Senegalese, Professor, Linguist and Specialist in the Wolof language. Learn and speak Wolof easily with me.
    My methodology is to base myself on the courses in a structural and clear way, accessible to my learners to give them quality teaching and a total understanding of the courses in a cordial and satisfying atmosphere. My method is very simple, I start by teaching you the most common and most used words and expressions. Then slowly the formation of sentences, conjugation, grammar but also how to pronounce each word well and know their positions in the sentence. Thanks to my very simple and effective teaching methodology, the student can form sentences in Wolof very easily from our first lesson. Wolof is the most spoken language in Senegal, Gambia where it has been enriched with contributions from other dialects, Arabic and French, which remains the official language. It is experiencing cultural expansion in the country and is also present in Gambia and Mauritania. So to facilitate your integration into Senegalese society; it is essential to use this language because it is the vernacular language although there are several beautiful local Senegalese languages but Wolof remains the most used language. This is why I offer myself to teach the beauty of this language which is my specialty and my mother tongue, I also teach Senegalese and Gambian culture and civilization. Learning Wolof offers anyone who wishes to know Senegal, in a professional, cultural or tourist context, the opportunity to establish privileged contact with its population. I would also like to inform my learners that apart from online courses, I organize language visits and tours in Senegal; for those who wish to travel to practice and discover Senegal with special packages. DON'T HESITATE TO BOOK A COURSE DIRECTLY SO THAT I CAN EXPLAIN AND INTRODUCE YOU TO THE WOLOF LANGUAGE.

    Spanish online lessons with native spanish teacher for adults and teenagers
    I am a native Spanish speaker and a general language enthusiast. In addition to Spanish, I speak German and English. I am 100% confident that I will successfully teach you Spanish (while having fun and relaxing)! I've been teaching spanish for 15 years. I am 41 years old, graduated with honors from the University of Salamanca. My main goal in teaching is to make students feel relaxed and comfortable while studying. Do you already know Spanish? No problem! Rather than building the basics, we can design courses to suit your personal needs and preferences. We can write essays together, you can give presentations on topics that interest you or that I present to you, we can discuss current events, engage in debates, you can write summaries of newspaper articles, or we can delve into advanced grammar. Whatever you enjoy and need, we can do it together. All my courses combine speaking, listening and grammar practice in interaction with me. Unless you are a very advanced student, we work with learning materials created by some of the best language learning publishers in Germany. These materials serve as a common thread for our course, introducing new words, grammar and exercises at a good pace and in an interesting way, keeping you engaged and motivated. I also show you German food, music and places. In addition, I will introduce you to the best technological tools (homepages and applications) to boost your language learning and take it to the next level. Another important factor for me is the personal connection. We usually start our lessons with how the weekend or previous weekdays were like. Contact me now to arrange a first lesson in which we can get to know each other so that I can learn more about you, your needs and desires and thus design the optimal course for you.

    Teaching interactively and combining fun and knowledge is my style I have already had 3 years of teaching experience with various ages: from teenagers to adults, so you don't need to think that age is an obstacle for you. I have also completed a seminar and a university course on teaching Greek as a Second/Foreign language. The lessons are structured, and we will practice all the language skills during the lessons. I would not like my students to be just listeners but to participate actively and always discover new things, giving us the desired result. Working with various materials in Greek, we will focus on the difficulties and weaknesses. We will also use Greek in the lesson so that you can become familiar with the language more quickly and begin to use it effectively. Last but not least, I prepare students for certifications.
