Teaching experience
2011 - 2012
English and French teacherI worked as a language teacher with Italian students, which allowed me to get a better view on why Italian students make certain mistakes while learning a foreign language in general and especially when learning English and French.
2017 - 2020
English, French and Italian teacherIn this position I taught groups of students and one-to-one classes and I decided myself how to conduct my lessons, which gave me ample opportunity to adapt my lessons to my students: I made my own material, selected interesting videos, songs, articles and games.
2016 - 2017
English, French, Italian and Dutch teacherAs a language teacher I gained a better understanding of the main problems that Spanish speaking people have while learning a language and more particularly when learning English, French, Italian or Dutch and could develop my own strategies to help my students reach their goals faster and easier, while taking into consideration every single student needs and interests.
2021 - 2024
Multilingual language teacher and coachI have taught about 5,000 lessons online over the past 3 years to about 300 different students from over 40 different countries.

I've been practicing French and Dutch with Kenny for several months now, and it's been an enriching experience. Kenny is composed, always punctual, prepared, polite, and knowledgeable.
His composed demeanor creates a conducive learning environment, while their punctuality and preparedness ensure efficient sessions tailored to my needs. Kenny is unfailingly polite, fostering a positive rapport, and their expertise in French and Dutch shines through in every lesson.
In short, Kenny is an exceptional language teacher. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking to improve their French or Dutch skills.

More than just a language teacher, Kenny is a language coach. I remember when I first started taking Italian lessons with him about two years ago I'd feel super nervous before and exhausted (in a good way) after. After over 100 lessons I feel confident and look forward to our weekly hour together. As language learners we are all striving towards fluency, but gaining confidence in your own ability is just as important. That's what you'll get when you work with Kenny. Also, it is fantastic to work with a polyglot because he can guide you in multiple languages at once. He has inspired me to learn French, and now I'm learning French through Italian thanks to his encouragement.

I've been learning French with Kenny for quite some time now. This is the tutor who I strongly recommend to those trying to learn how to speak le Français (and any other of the multiple languages that Kenny speaks).
Just a few reasons why I think so:
- Kenny is patient, so you're not afraid to speak with mistakes in the beginning. On top of that, Kenny is just an interesting person to talk to, which makes lessons feel less boring/formal. This greatly helps you to set the wheel in motion when you're starting off
- My program/ study plan with Kenny is personalized into a mix of exercises (drilling) and entertaining materials (like videos/audios). This way it is balanced and you don't feel bored of "just doing stuff".
- Importantly, Kenny leaves notes for each of the lessons which you can come back to after the lesson to go over the material and thus learn it better.

After nearly a year apart (due to wife being on maternity leave), it was great to discover Kenny has lost none of his passion for both languages and being a teacher!
