If learning the English language has been a challenge in the past, you have come to the right person. I am incredibly patient and skilled in clear and concise explanations. I will think with you collaboratively on how to build your vocabulary, solidify your sentence structure, and help you feel comfortable in reading, writing, and speaking English. For students and working professionals I can also provide proof-reading and written English support (e.g. essays, emails) I grew up in the United states for 20 years with a Dutch parent and have been living in Nederland for three years. Here I am a special education teacher specializing in autism and adhd. My background is in psychology with courses on memory and learning. If it seems like no matter how hard you try the language just doesn't stick, we'll explore new options and work on slowly building up a successful structure for learning.
