The languages that I offer are based on having lived extensively in countries where those languages are spoken - so, yes, I am able to teach you not only the 'formal' manner of speaking, but more importantly, the nuances, colloquialisms and more natural way of being able to communicate, and have you sounding like a local in no time at all! If you need further tuition in reading and writing, that is also available.

I am able to help you prepare for language tests - whether they be at school, for entrance exams or more advanced, look no further. I have extensive experience in helping foreign students obtain not only entrance into various international universities with at least partial scholarships, but also to obtain the necessary language skills to apply for international jobs.

I take the first lesson to get to know you: your likes, dislikes, hobbies, interests, as well as your current level of language understanding of the language you are wanting to learn. I also establish whether you are more of a visual, written, or spoken learner, and in what combinations you are able to best retain information.

From there, I tailor-make lessons for you, which are fluid in nature. This means that the classes are not given in a rigid manner, far from it - but you will learn. Read less
