Special Education math tutor - Individualized support (ages 8 - 16)

From 152 C$ /h

I'm a qualified special education teacher with a math background, and I design every lesson around how your child learns best. Sessions are adapted in real time — whether that means visual supports, concrete materials, extra processing time, or breaking problems into smaller steps. I have experience supporting students with autism, ADHD, and dyscalculia, and I adjust my approach to fit each student's needs rather than following a fixed lesson plan.

Math Foundations and confidence building (Ages 10–16)

144 C$ /h

Personalized math tutoring for students ages 10–16, taught by a special education teacher with 6 years of classroom experience.

Whether your child needs to fill in gaps and rebuild confidence, or wants to push ahead and go deeper into challenging material, I tailor every session to where they actually are — not where a standard curriculum assumes they should be. My background in special education means I'm skilled at breaking down concepts, adapting to different learning styles, and figuring out exactly where a student is struggling in their understanding and how help.

I work with students from a range of school systems and curriculums, including strong experience with the IB program, so lessons can connect directly to what students are covering in class. I'm patient, easy to talk to, and focused on building both math skills and genuine confidence.

Who this is for: Students ages 10–16 who want steady, individualized support — whether that means catching up, staying on track, or getting ahead. Open to students from any school or curriculum.

IB Math tutoring support for MYP students to succeed

152 C$ /h

IB math moves fast, and one confusing unit can snowball into a semester of stress. MYP math builds the foundation for everything that comes in the Diploma Programme, so gaps here compound fast. I work directly from your child's MYP criteria (A–D) and unit content — breaking down command terms, practicing the investigation and problem-solving style MYP assessments expect, and connecting concepts across strands so math starts to make sense as a whole, not just isolated topics.

I have the curiosity and eagerness to learn. It gives me a natural ability to teach because I believe only a good student can be a good teacher. I have tutoring experience in the past.

I have completed my graduation in engineering. On the professional front, I am a banker. I moved to the Netherlands and am currently on a break. I would love to indulge in my passion for teaching.

I can teach school level Math and Science. My goal is to keep students challenged to learn new things. I will be tutoring whatever is required for the school syllabus along with extra information or facts to make learning fun. Test preparation and tutoring for exams can also be done.I cook Indian dishes on a regular basis and would love to teach Indian-style cooking to people who are interested.

Every student is different and I will take extra care to have tailor-made classes for each person. I create presentations, use assignments, and prepare before each class. Time is important and I do not want to waste yours.

You can message me regarding the classes or your needs. I will make sure to do my best.

After tutoring for over 6 years in the Amsterdam area, I am very familiar with the various school curriculums. Having moved around quite a bit, I understand the stress students undergo adapting to new schooling systems. I enjoy working privately with students to build their confidence. I previously was a primary school teacher of all subjects (Grades 1&2) for a private international school in Dubai. I am familiar with international school curriculum and challenges faced by students when moving to a new country.

I have extensive experience with students of all learning levels. I have been privately tutoring for over 10 years now. English is my first language (I am American). I also have experience tutoring at a higher age (as well as university level). I am an excellent writer, editor, and researcher and work part time in UVA's graduate school in the sociology department. I completed my MSc at UVA and undergraduate at UCLA.

Currently, the majority of my students are primary school students who attend the British school or ISA. However, I teach a large number of international school students or older students. I also tutor many students, of various ages, in the Dutch schooling system. I am very comfortable with international school curriculums, however, I also have a good grasp on the Dutch schooling system. While I teach students of various ages and backgrounds, I would consider myself a specialist in primary school students whose second language is English.

Mathematics is often a difficult subject for many students in high school. What I have noticed while learning math is that it is about the fun you have while learning to understand math.
I will happily work with my students to ensure that they understand mathematics, enjoy it, and come home with great grades!
At home, in the library, or online. As long as the lesson ends with a smile, I'm happy!

Welcome to my Foundation Course in Science and Maths, specially designed for primary, secondary, and high school students in Amsterdam. This course aims to build a strong foundation in these critical subjects, ensuring students excel academically and develop a genuine love for learning.

My teaching approach is focused on making learning enjoyable and engaging. I incorporate interactive activities and hands-on experiments to bring Science and Maths concepts to life. By involving students in these dynamic learning experiences, I aim to transform abstract concepts into tangible understanding. Each session is thoughtfully designed to keep students interested and motivated, minimizing fatigue and maximizing retention.

I believe in simplifying complex topics, breaking them down into easy-to-understand segments. This approach helps students grasp and retain challenging concepts with ease. Techniques such as mnemonic devices, visual aids, and real-life examples are integral to my method, ensuring that formulas and concepts are not just memorized, but truly understood.

Regular assessments are conducted to track student progress and identify areas needing improvement. These tests also prepare students for their school exams, ultimately boosting their confidence. I understand the importance of keeping parents informed and involved in their child’s academic journey. That's why I provide weekly reports detailing their child’s progress, strengths, and areas for improvement. This continuous feedback loop ensures that parents are aware of their child’s development and can support their learning at home.

Encouraging words and positive feedback are integral to my teaching method. I strive to build students' self-confidence and to instill a love for learning through positive reinforcement. Setting achievable goals for each student, I celebrate their successes and motivate them to strive for excellence. This goal-setting approach not only drives academic success but also fosters a sense of accomplishment and self-worth.

As a tutor, my satisfaction comes from seeing my students excel and reach their full potential. My ultimate goal is to empower students with the knowledge and skills they need to succeed in Science and Maths. I am always available to support my students, offering additional help and resources as needed to ensure their success.

I foster an open environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, no matter how simple they may seem. This curiosity drives deeper understanding and encourages a proactive approach to learning. By incorporating games, puzzles, and interesting activities, I ensure that learning remains fun and engaging, keeping students excited about the subjects.

Join my Foundation Course in Science and Maths and watch your child develop a strong foundation, confidence, and a genuine love for these essential subjects. Let’s work together to achieve academic excellence and make learning a fun and rewarding experience. “Excel in Subjects, Soar in Confidence!”

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.

Make Mathematics your Second Language.

In high school and college I suffered from test anxiety.

But later I taught myself to get 99th percentile scores on the GMAT and SAT.

Now with more than 100 happy wizards trained in Amsterdam alone, since 2015.

No scams. Lots of patience. I came from the humanities. My math was hmm and meh in high school. Now a Wizard, with test scores to prove it.

Do you want to improve your Mathematics A in a structured way?

I would be happy to help you with this. For me, it is a passion, but for others sometimes (not yet).
My art is to make it interesting and easy to understand.

Please let me know how I can help you with this.
I create lessons myself, but I can also adapt them to specific subject matter or exam preparation.
