When I was a young child, I believed I was not a mathematical person.

It wasn't until I met an amazing teacher at age 15 that I discovered my mathematical genius and my life was changed forever.

I'm eternally grateful to that teacher.

My teacher knew that self-image and self-belief is the key to unlocking your child's mathematical abilities.

Everyone is good at maths, but we all have different styles of thinking.

Bad teachers teach every child the same way.

My job is to find your child's style of mathematics and allow him to discover that for himself.

When he discovers that, he will begin to enjoy the beauty and power of mathematics...and then you will see as the grades begin to soar.

Maths is a subject that requires clarity of concepts. Sometimes it happens that our basic concepts are not clear thats why we are not able to solve questions efficiently. I'll be discussing with you where exactly you are, will come to your level, and then take you up with me from there.
I am a teacher with whom you can ask any basic silly concept to any complex one.

COURSE OUTLINE:
* Foundation of Mathematics
* Basic concepts in Mathematics
* Algebra and Trigonometry
* Elementary statistics
* Modern Geometry
* Calculus
* Differential Equations
This is an outline of the course. Apart from this, if you have any doubt on any particular topic, you can obviously clear that concept with me.

Let's start and make it fun.

I offer personalized Turkish and English language tutoring focused on real communication, confidence, and individual learning goals. My teaching style is flexible, attentive, and adapted to each student rather than strictly following a textbook structure.

I have experience working only with adult students. I have taught English to private students in a friendly and productive setting, and I currently teach Turkish to a director at International Documentary Film Festival Amsterdam (IDFA). These experiences helped me develop a teaching approach that is both structured and personal.

For every student, I:
Prepare lessons individually according to their needs, interests, and level
Keep detailed notes of recurring mistakes and areas that need improvement
Revise and adjust the course plan weekly based on progress
Focus on speaking, comprehension, grammar, pronunciation, and natural usage together
Create a comfortable and motivating learning environment

Classes take place once a week on a fixed day and time, and can be either:
1 hour
1.5 hours

Lessons can be held:
Online
In person around Amsterdam

My approach is especially suitable for students looking for a more adaptive, engaging, and needs-based learning experience rather than a rigid textbook format.

The lesson is tailored to your wishes. I can explain the theory from the *Getal & Ruimte* method (or *Moderne Mathematics*). We can go through the exercises you want to review, or simply the exercises in the book. We can review tests or prepare for exams. Together, we will strive for mathematics that you understand.

I believe children learn best when they are active participants in their education, not just listeners. My methodology relies on three things:

Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL): If your child is learning English as a second language, we will practice it through academic subjects they already study, such as Math, Science, or Geography. This makes language acquisition natural, practical, and highly engaging.

Visual Learning: I use interactive whiteboards, educational games, and colourful slides to keep students focused and excited throughout the 50-minute lesson.

Curriculum Alignment: If your child is struggling with schoolwork, I align our lessons directly with what they are learning in class to boost their grades and classroom confidence.

I am Imran, 18 years old and a student in 5 VWO (with a completed HAVO diploma). Over the past two years, I have gained experience as a peer coach for lower secondary students, guiding them in science subjects such as mathematics, physics, and chemistry. Additionally, I provide Cito training to primary school students from the age of 7, and I have experience giving private lessons at home.

Whether it concerns extra practice for the Cito test in primary school, or help with science subjects in the lower years of secondary school, I explain calmly and step by step, and align with the level and subject matter of your own school.

General English: I design the English course based on your personal needs, interests, and motivations. Based on your profile and existing level of English, the course would focus on a specific combination of grammar, vocabulary, listening, reading, writing, and speaking.

English for academic purposes: This course would cover the key aspects of English needed in higher education and academic contexts. In addition to grammar and vocabulary, the course trains the key receptive and productive skills needed in higher education. Receptive skills involve reading and listening to academic texts. Productive skills involve writing and speaking for academic purposes (e.g., research papers, research proposals, essays, presentations, and others).
