Italian teachers, lessons and tutoring in Amsterdam

Hello! My name is Emilia and I am an experienced language tutor and translator from/to Bulgarian, Spanish, English and Dutch. My biggest passion are foreign languages and I have passed this passion to many of my students throughout the years. Despite the fact I have a Master's degree in Economics and International Business and I've worked few years as an economist, my heart always takes me back to my teaching and translation jobs. With more than 15 years of teaching experience, a great level of patience and dedication to my work, and a great number of happy students, I am here to help you learn Bulgarian, Spanish and Dutch at your own pace and convenience. Hope to hear from you soon!  Best regards, Emilia

My mother language is Dutch and I mainly teach Dutch nowadays.

However, I have a Master's degree in Spanish and I am also fluent in English.

I offer interactive classes, often focused on speaking skills. I am patient and helpful.

My students come from all over the world, all levels and ages.
I look forward to meeting you!

I prepare lessons for each student individually based on their specific needs for each language. For example: if you language need is Business English, I prepare your lesson on what you need to do your work. If your language need is to practice your speaking skills, your lesson will be based on themes that you are interested in. If your language need is to learn English from scratch, we will discuss a program to get you started from the beginning to when you can speak English with confidence.
My tutoring also focusses on the development of my students. Through my classes, I aim to stimulate creativity, analytical skills, improve business skills, understanding of different cultures, problem-solving, communication skills, enhance my student's opportunities in worldwide jobs and to expand their worlds globally. Lessons are individually prepared for each student to learn grammar, vocabulary, speaking, listening, pronunciation and reading.  
More about me:
I have been in tutoring and training for 15 years and I follow a communicative approach with interesting themes and discussions that draw on your life experiences and everyday situations. 
I was born in South Africa and live close to Cape Town.  I speak both Afrikaans and English as native languages. I studied Human Resources and specialized in training. In 2015 I added a TEFL/TESOL certificate to my qualifications. I was given a traditional African name by a student group in South Africa and they named me Noluthandu which means “a person who likes people.” This was a great honor for me. I am very much excited to walk the exciting path with you while learning a new language. Remember, it takes small steps to reach the top of the mountain of success.

Hey there,

Let me tell you quickly something about me and what I do.

I am a translator by training and a compulsive traveler by birth. I love cats and salsa music. English has always been my passion and I'm here to help other people feel confident when speaking, writing and working with this language.

My teaching method is a very personal mix made of tips and methods taken from different schools of thought, many first-hand experiences I have had in the field, all combined with my mission to help students overcome their fears and blocks when it comes to English.

In my classes you will have the advantage of feeling well looked after - my preparation in cultural and language studies allows me to listen to and understand the challenges students from different linguistic backgrounds face.

If this sounds like you, let's start working together.

With dedication,
Elisabetta

Hi there!

My name is Eva, Hispanic Philology Degree and Master's degree in Teaching Spanish, and I have taugh Spanish for 14 years in language schools and for companies and individuals who want to live and work in Spain from very diverse sectors (businessmen, psychologists, video game designers, teachers ...), and people who wanted to learn the language by pleasure or to be able to communicate on their trips as well.

I can teach general classes, but I am specialized in personalized classes according to your professional and academic needs, focused on communication, conversation and pronunciation, to which I pay a lot of attention (many of my students come to my classes because they want to 'sound' more Spanish). The cultural component is essential for effective communication.

I like to work on explanations and communicative practice in class, and let the student practice exercises at home that I advise for him between sessions. Your learning can be deeper the more time of personal study and practice you can dedicate to it.

Normally I use a basic manual (I prefer the books by Prisma, the Edelsa publishing house) and complementary books on vocabulary, grammar and pronunciation, among others (Anaya and Edelsa publishing house are my favourite).

But the best thing is to listen to you and attend to your specific case.

Before starting the classes, I propose to have an interview to listen to you and understand your case, what you need and prepare our work together adjusting to your wishes.

It will be a pleasure to help you.
