Sandra
Hello parents! My name is Sandra. I am a native English speaker from New York State. I have a USA teaching license and a Bachelor's Degree in Childhood Inclusive Education (Grades K-6 and Students with Disabilities) from the State University of New York at Fredonia. My experiences include teaching at primary international schools in Belgrade, Serbia for 2 years and 3 years at international schools in The Hague, Netherlands. I have worked at two IB primary schools. Alongside teaching at international schools, I have 8 years of experience teaching English. I also have experience teaching grade 1 and 3 in elementary schools in New York State. I have taught children from 2-17 years old and adults. My students range in levels from beginners who are new to learning English, to fluent English speakers that need support or would like to further excel or maintain their fluency. Based on my experiences, I have learned to adjust my teaching style based on different students' needs, cultures, socioeconomic backgrounds, and learning abilities.

Lessons are provided to children and teenagers. Lessons are customized to the learning needs of your child. Whether that be learning English for the first time or practicing improvement of speaking, reading, comprehension, pronunciation, listening, writing, grammar, etc. Lessons can be aimed towards learning a topic such as food, animals, sports, emotions, and more.

For children who are fluent English speakers, tutoring can be given to further excel in particular areas. Subjects that interest the student such as science, history or world topics can be incorporated into the lesson to broaden their knowledge. Support can also be provided in learning organizational skills, research, and mini projects for older children. I am available to help with studying, homework, or school projects. For online learning, I use a variety of platforms, websites, educational games, and e-books to reach the learning goals of my students. Additional homework can be provided if requested.

Depending on the students age, lesson duration is adjusted. If you are looking for lessons for siblings, please reach out to me to discuss the best schedule for your children. My aim is to create a positive and enjoyable learning environment for all my students.

I hope you can join my English lessons! Please reach out to me if you have any questions. I can provide my resume or reference letters if requested. Looking forward to hearing from you.

English has become the Lingua Franca of our times. It's a valuable skill to possess, beneficial for everyone. It comes handy in the ever-developing world that we live in and opens doors to many places, also in the mind. Additionally, bilingualism enhances the cognitive skills.

Whether you'd like to improve your speaking skills and break the language barrier or you wish to prepare better for an English exam, I come to an aid.

In 2023, I've obtained a Master degree in Linguistics at the University of Amsterdam. I've achieved the C1+ levels in English, on the CEFR scale. I have 2 years of experience living in London, where I acquired RP (received pronunciation) and 7 years of experience in the International Academia (Amsterdam). My linguistic background gives me the capacity to explain the sounds and various processes of the language, from a perspective many natives do not know. In teaching, I practice the holistic approach. It is my belief that language is for people of every age and education, but I'm aware that everyone deserves a personal approach. In the first session, we always do a needs analysis and become acquainted, to make sure we click as people and will enjoy working away at your personal language goals.

Over the years, my classes, have proven to raise the confidence levels of students. We practice knowledge in English, on 4 levels of proficiency: Speaking, Listening, Reading and Writing.

I will focus on your strengths and guide you to how to use those to your advantage in learning. We will elicit your potential. With a little help, I am sure you will achieve the goals you set for yourself.

I offer various types of lessons, fully tailored to your level and learning style. Whether you want to improve your speaking, prepare for an exam, or simply gain more confidence, we'll create a plan together that suits you. Every lesson focuses on practical language use and, above all, speaking a lot.

Study guidance/Tutoring

English doesn't have to be a stumbling block. With a little extra help, you can make much faster progress. In my coaching, I work with students from university (Master's and Bachelor's), universities of applied sciences, intermediate vocational education (MBO), pre-university education (VWO), senior general secondary education (HAVO), and pre-vocational secondary education (VMBO) who face challenges with grammar, reading, listening, writing, and speaking. We address exactly where you struggle—so you truly understand the material and get better grades.

Exam preparation

Prepare for your final English exam (VMBO, HAVO, or VWO) with confidence. Together, we'll practice past exams, discuss common mistakes, and I'll teach you smart strategies to better understand texts and formulate sharper answers. This way, you'll know exactly what to expect and you'll feel confident about your exam.

To speak

Many people know the rules of English quite well, but find it difficult to translate that knowledge into a fluent conversation. In my lessons, you'll practice exactly that. We'll work on pronunciation, sentence structure, and fluency, but above all, on having the courage to speak. With targeted feedback, I'll help you speak English with greater ease and confidence—in any situation.

Pronunciation

Want your English to sound more natural? With a few practical adjustments, you can significantly improve your pronunciation and intonation. In these lessons, you'll learn how to form sounds correctly, use natural rhythm, and avoid typical "Dutch" mistakes. You'll soon notice that your English sounds much more natural.

Grammar

Once you understand how it works, English actually becomes much easier. In my lessons, you'll learn the rules in a comprehensible way and immediately apply them in conversations and exercises. This way, you'll learn not only what's correct, but also why—and that makes all the difference in how natural your English sounds.
