Hello everyone!
I'm Merlijn, a 30-year-old online teacher from Ghent, currently living in Hamburg. I've been teaching online for 7 years and have a lot of experience teaching and learning new languages. I'm an energetic and enthusiastic person who likes to engage his students in the subject matter. I'm very athletic and musical. A good book or a good movie are also ways I like to spend my time.
I look forward to seeing you in class!Me as a Teacher
I guide students to think critically and explore ideas thoroughly. I focus on building confidence by explaining concepts patiently and encouraging curiosity, helping each student develop their own understanding. I value questions, curiosity and making students feel comfortable and confident during my class. Interaction, gamification and individual approaches are my forte. My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are clear, structured, and adaptable. I break down concepts step by step, challenge assumptions, and foster active engagement so students can solve problems independently while enjoying the learning process.
Usually, I start with grammar learning and vocabulary acquisition, which may be tested on the spot. A lot of our time is reserved for language production with instant feedback, to guide you through the process.My teaching material
