Professional teacher and life & success coach, I've had the pleasure of helping more than 500 international students to acquire Arabic and/or French. All of them were for me a source of inspiration and continual improvement.
I deeply believe that my mission is not to produce grammar "knowers", but speakers who, when exposed to the right learning methods, are able to climb the levels up to the full mastery of the target language.
Personally, I'm interested in religion, resilience, civilization and human growth.

Ik als leerkracht
I've been intensively teaching since 2017 and had more than 5500 classes with 500+ students from all over the world.
I've helped many of them to pass the DELF and DALF exams, to be better prepared for a job interview, a trip to an Arabic or French-speaking country... or simply to become a language chameleon 🦎😉
Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
I use the Comprehensible Input method of Stephen Krashen, that focuses on comprehension-based interaction.
The main goal of each lesson being to speak 70% to 100% of the time in the target language, I gradually replace English with closed questions, draws, body language, then TPRS & storytelling.
Each lesson is prepared beforehand and tailored to the students goals & needs. From B1 and above, I systematically involve the student in class planning, by sharing preparatory homework and occasional writing productions.
Don't hesitate to book a discounted trial lesson to experience my teaching method, and see how we could collaborate to achieve your language goals.
See you in class 🙂

Keuze van de leerkracht
Leena is a wonderful and friendly teacher who focuses a lot on comprehensible input which is very helpful and means we can spend the whole session in French. However, her understanding of other languages is helpful as it enables her to give very useful feedback comparing the French approach to my native language (English) which helps me to understand the underlying perspective rather than memorising facts or phrases. Likewise, she has a large vocabulary so is often able to help me learn synonyms or different ways of articulating myself which stick better in my brain by being connected to what I already know, and subjects that I am passionate about. I remember a lot more of what we've learned this way compared to >10 years learning French in a very structured grammar-focused manner. She also does a lot of work marking and providing feedback on exercises, so I feel much better prepared for my DALF exam. I would highly recommend her, especially for those sitting DELF/DALF exams!

Arabic lesson with Leena was very good. She pushed me to think about connections between words today.
Really enjoyed the lesson!

Leena is an excellent person and teacher. My French lessons with her are fun and comprehensive. I never thought a one hour class could be so interesting. I am never tired and am constantly learning and pushing myself.
I am learning more with Leena than I have ever learned in schools or with face to face private teachers. She makes French interesting and easy. She is patient and flexible to your needs. I think her true passion and efforts for teaching and learning languages really make a difference.
If we all had the opportunity to find such a great teacher, we could all be multilingual! I cannot recommend her more!
As bonus, you will not only learn a language but loads of interesting content! She really has a lot to offer!

I looked forward to my second lesson with Lina all week and will book the next one immediately. Lina is very patient, friendly and funny, I never feel bad about making mistakes or not knowing something. She explains linguistic connections very well and writes downs the new words (with example sentences) in a google doc so I can review them during the week. Thanks so much Lina!

It has been a while since learning Arabic and Lina has always been patient with me as I brave the wilds of this language again. I appreciate her personality and attitude during the lessons. Lina is an excellent teacher.
