Experienced math tutor with University Master. Exam training and tutoring / guidance - University, HBO, VWO, HAVO, VMBO

Experienced math tutor with University Master. Exam training and tutoring / guidance - University, HBO, VWO, HAVO, VMBO

If you are struggling with a specific subject, we can look together at what you are good at and what we can best focus on during the sessions. A few subjects that I have coached students in in the past are: mathematics, business economics, economics, arithmetic, accounting/accountancy, cost accounting, managerial accounting, financial accounting, corporate finance, risk management and investments. I give tips on which information is most important, how you can best prepare for the subject, and how you can best read test questions. This method has proven to be very effective! During my sessions I coach almost everyone! From pupils at the vmbo to (almost) graduates at the university, in all financial-economic subjects. Because of this I have developed a coaching structure that is effective, efficient, and fun. During exam training I work with old exams with a focus on the latest developments in the field. In this way I ensure that students get a good grip on the exam material and enter the exams with confidence. During the training I teach the students how an exam is structured so that they feel familiar with the final exam. Tutoring or homework support are designed in consultation. Some pupils or students benefit from doing assignments together, while others need more explanation of the theory.

Private Music Lessons for Piano, Violin and Erhu (Chinese violin)

Private Music Lessons for Piano, Violin and Erhu (Chinese violin)

As a Cambridge University graduate in the Faculty of Education, I am delighted to have settled down in the Netherlands since September 2019. I started piano at the age of 5, and music has been an important part of my life ever since. Classically trained as a violinist, I picked up another instrument named Erhu (Chinese violin) and became a professional performer. I am experienced in teaching both children and adults, from different cultural backgrounds. Also, I have been actively involved in both Western and Chinese orchestra since high school. Thanks to my years of experience in being an orchestra member and soloist, I am also familiar with orchestral music. As a humble music therapist, I am passionate about music and believe in the power of music. I trust that music is in everybody and I respect every student's individuality and thus tailor my teaching methods to develop my students' full potential. I started teaching in 2009 and most students put their trust in me when they first decided to learn an instrument. I also enjoy exploring the world of music with students with learning disabilities. I am proud to say, my students, aged from 5 to 60, are enthusiastic in playing the instrument they have chosen and keen to improve their skills following my advice. I adopt a flexible approach in teaching - I believe every student is unique and my job is to develop the strengths and improve the weaknesses. I put a lot of emphasis on a solid foundation in my teaching. For young children, I tend to use a more interactive approach to explain complicated music theories, yet strict in the fundamentals such as posture and rhythm. For adults, I am always happy to discuss with them my lesson plan and choose the best exercises and songs that suit their music interests and needs. For my students who would like to take exams, I am happy to tailor the lessons based on their progress. I believe in the quality of learning and understanding rather than the number of pieces that they learn. Many beginners and their parents have put their trusts in me and achieved distinction in their first ABRSM exam. I am fluent in English and Mandarin Chinese, and a native speaker of Cantonese Chinese. I am happy to travel and travel costs will be added on the top of the standard tuition fee. *Proof of qualifications avaliable upon requests.

Do you want to learn to play chess better? Personal chess lessons for youth and adults – KNSB ±2100

Do you want to learn to play chess better? Personal chess lessons for youth and adults – KNSB ±2100

Do you want to improve your chess skills, but aren't sure how to go about it? Or do you want to strengthen your child in a fun and effective way? I give personal chess lessons to beginners, juniors, and advanced players. With a KNSB rating of approximately 2100 and chess experience since the age of 6, I help students not only to find better moves, but above all to understand why a move is right or wrong. A higher rating does not automatically mean that someone is the best coach for every level. Especially for players between approximately 1000 and 1900, I find it important to explain chess ideas clearly, understandably, and practically. My goal is for you to be able to actually apply the knowledge you have learned independently during your own games. During the lessons, we can work on, among other things: - Tactics and combinations - Developing strategies and plans - Openings and typical middlegame ideas - Party analyses - Identifying errors and areas for improvement - Learning to think and make decisions independently The lessons are fully tailored to your level and personal goals. Whether you are just starting out, want to improve as a club player, or are serious about growing towards 1800/2000: together we will look at what you need to take the next step. The lessons can be given online or at your home. Feel free to contact me to discuss exactly what you would like to improve.

Former teacher. Primary/Secondary school tutoring.

Former teacher. Primary/Secondary school tutoring.

I’m a former primary school teacher with over eight years of private tutoring experience in Amsterdam. I’ve worked with students attending Dutch, British and other international schools, including the British School and ISA, and am familiar with the different curricula and expectations. I specialise in working with students with ADHD and other learning differences. Alongside teaching the subject, I help with the things that can make schoolwork difficult: getting started, staying focused, organising assignments and knowing what to do when you feel stuck. This might mean breaking work into smaller steps, trying a different explanation or taking a break before coming back to a problem. I take the time to get to know each student and understand what works for them. I teach maths, English and other primary school subjects, with particular experience supporting children who are learning in English as a second language. Students come to me for different reasons: some need help keeping up at school, some have lost confidence, and others enjoy a subject and want more of a challenge. I want them to feel comfortable asking questions and saying when something doesn’t make sense. Having moved between countries myself, I also understand how much students have to adjust when they enter a new school system. I can help them work through unfamiliar material and expectations while they settle in. Before moving to Amsterdam, I taught all subjects in Grades 1 and 2 at a private international school in Dubai. I’m American and a native English speaker, with a BA in Sociology from UCLA and an MSc in Medical Anthropology and Sociology from the University of Amsterdam. I also work as a writer and editor, and support secondary school and university students with essay planning, academic writing and research. Lessons are available in Amsterdam or online. Feel free to send me a message with your child’s age, school and what you’re looking for help with! An additional travel fee applies to lessons at your home if the journey is more than 20 minutes by bike.

“ Tom had given economie lessen to both my children that are on the middle bar school. My kids were lost, going very bad specially in economie and with limited understanding at school lessons. I decided to hire Tom, was difficult to find someone that give lessons to teenagers and that was knowledged. Tom has been with us the last months, my kids began understanding better, getting the point and scoring better at school. Sometimes I could overhear the online lessons or even 'live lessons' when he came home. Tom is great, with lots of patience, straight to the point, know how to explain, never lose the temper. We are very happy and will certainly recommend him. He is very professional and can motivate the students in a very good way. Thanks Tom! ”

“ I feel fortunate to have Baiba as my singing teacher. Her classes aren't just dynamic and light-hearted; they're also incredibly informative and detailed. Baiba's extensive knowledge and expertise shone through as she guided me through each lesson, building layer by layer toward a felt sense of improvement from the beginning. What sets Baiba apart is her openness and receptiveness. She creates a supportive and encouraging environment where I feel comfortable expressing myself and pushing past my insecurities. As someone who struggles with fear and insecurity around singing, I can't believe how quickly Baiba put me at ease and helped me feel safe in the process of learning. I full-heartedly recommend Baiba's lessons! ”

“ We had our first session a few days ago, with Alessandra tutoring my 8 year old son and 5 year old daughter, developing their reading and writing in English and their mathematics. Alessandra's previous experience as a teacher certainly shines through, as she definitely seems to know how children of this age learn. She provided original and exciting activities for the kids and they found it great fun; they are looking forward to seeing her again next week. Alessandra was professional to work with and I can definitely recommend her. ”
