Thinking in Numbers: Algebra and Geometry for Problem Solvers”It highlights both subjects you teach and your philosophy of building thinking

Van 34.62 € /h

My Mathematics Classroom and Teaching Philosophy

My classroom is a world filled with numbers and shapes. I teach Algebra and Geometry—subjects that combine the rigor of logical reasoning with the creativity of spatial imagination. In Algebra, we explore equation solving and the behavior of functions; in Geometry, we tell stories through shapes and uncover patterns through theorems.

I believe that mathematics is not just a subject, but a way of thinking. My teaching philosophy is to help students learn by understanding, think through problem-solving, and gain confidence from their progress. I encourage students to ask questions and try different approaches without fear of making mistakes, because mistakes are often the starting point of real learning.

In class, I use examples from everyday life to make abstract concepts more relatable—like explaining parabolas through the arc of a ball in motion or demonstrating symmetry with paper folding. I want students to realize that mathematics is not merely a tool for exams, but a key to observing and understanding the world.

For me, the ultimate goal of math education is not to have students memorize countless formulas, but to help them develop the analytical mindset and problem-solving courage to face challenges. That is the reason I walk into my classroom each day—to guide them to not only “do math,” but to truly “think mathematically.”

Foundations to Excellence: Math & Chinese Tutoring Program

44.38 € /h

I offer middle school and high school tutoring in Mathematics and Chinese, designed to support students at different academic levels and learning paces. My teaching approach emphasizes building strong foundations, developing logical thinking, and improving language comprehension, rather than short-term memorization.

From a parent’s perspective, I understand the importance of both academic progress and long-term learning habits. Each student receives personalized instruction based on their strengths, challenges, and school curriculum. Lessons focus on clarifying difficult concepts, strengthening problem-solving skills, and improving confidence in both subjects.

For Mathematics, I help students develop structured thinking, accuracy, and exam readiness. For Chinese, instruction includes reading comprehension, writing skills, vocabulary development, and cultural understanding, supporting both native and heritage learners.

Whether the goal is to keep up with school coursework, prepare for exams, or achieve long-term academic growth, I provide patient, consistent, and results-oriented guidance. I maintain clear communication with parents and adjust teaching strategies as students progress, ensuring that learning outcomes are measurable and meaningful.

Math, calculus and physics can sometimes be overwhelming, especially when the theory or solving method is unclear. I am a cum laude Aerospace Engineering graduate from TU Delft and have helped other pupils with their problems since 2017. With my calm and stepwise explanation, a second view of the solution procedure is given, which is often what is missing. I tutor a variety of math and physics courses on both secondary and high school levels, but also at a scientific bachelor level. These can either be theory/exercise-based, but also exam preparation.

Ik ben gespecialiseerd in het geven van wiskunde. Ik geef wiskunde aan alle klassen en niveau’s van het VO. Mijn doel is om de lestof zo begrijpelijk te maken dat leerlingen geen moeite meer hebben met hun struikelblokken. Ik bespreek altijd eerst de lesstof en daarna laat ik leerlingen zelf de opgaven maken en spring in als leerlingen ergens op vastlopen. Ik probeer de uitleg zo duidelijk mogelijk te maken zodat het kwartje bij de leerling valt.

In deze les wiskunde B leer je hoe je met behulp van differentiaalrekening de helling van een functie en het raaklijnvoorschrift bepaalt. We beginnen met het begrijpen van wat een afgeleide betekent en hoe deze samenhangt met de grafiek van een functie.

Vervolgens oefenen we met het berekenen van afgeleiden van veelvoorkomende functies, zoals veeltermen en eenvoudige samengestelde functies. Daarna passen we dit toe door de helling in een specifiek punt te bepalen en het bijbehorende raaklijnvoorschrift op te stellen.

De les is praktisch en stap-voor-stap opgebouwd, met duidelijke uitleg en gerichte oefenopgaven. Er is veel aandacht voor veelgemaakte fouten en examenvalkuilen, zodat je deze leert herkennen en vermijden.

Deze les is geschikt voor leerlingen die moeite hebben met differentiëren, hun begrip willen verdiepen of zich voorbereiden op toetsen en examens wiskunde B.
