Over

Hi there!

My name is Petra and I'm an English for Academic Purposes teacher. I've lived in Scotland for over 12 years - dividing my time here between the Highlands and Glasgow. Since I completed my entire higher education in Scotland (from college to Postgraduate studies), I have first-hand experinece of studying at British universities as well as a deep understanding of how higher education works in the UK.
As a language educator, I draw heavily on the skills and knowledge I gained during my master's degree in TESOL (teaching English to speakers of other languages) to ensure that I provide high-quality services to my students. I am also double TEFL certified (General English and Academic English). As a teacher, I always aim to create a safe learning environment for my students, where they feel supported and encouraged along their learning journey.

As an individual, I am deeply passionate about learning languages and exploring different cultures. I'm multilingual and a huge believer of lifelong learning. Besides fluent English and Hungarian, I also speak intermediate Swedish. Other things that bring me joy besides learning and teaching languages include travelling, cooking, taking care of my dog and going to the cinema.

I am very happy to answer any questions you may have so please feel free to contact me. I hope to hear from you!

Academic English and Study Skills for international students

41.54 € /h

English is the common language of international academia. For current or aspiring international students, being able to understand and use Academic English is an essential skill. Mastering this specific type of English would not only make your student experience a lot smoother, but it would also allow you to focus more on your main subject and increase your chances of obtaining your desired grades. Learning about university-level study skills and discussing the challenges of studying an English-language course abroad could be instrumental to your success as an international student.

In my lessons, you will learn how to communicate with lecturers and fellow students; how to structure essays/dissertations; practise academic reading and note taking; grow your general academic vocabulary; become more confident in creating and giving presentations in English; learn how to participate in seminars and group projects; learn about different teaching styles and certain expectations some universities may have of students and much more.

I tailor every session accordingly, specifically for customers who wish to learn French or English very fast for university exams, prepare for DELF exams/TCF or meet a family member, or for young children, even starting from age 2.
I have time available and can adapt to either way of doing sessions. Skype, Teams, zoom, at my place or yours. I am also flexible in regard to your schedules and your specificities and will be happy to make a program made to measure for you :)

I like to use different methods to teach French to students. It can be through songs, drama, role play or videos. I also very often use situations close to the student's experience, such as describing places they have been or talking about what they have experienced. At the same time, I teach the grammar rules to the student. I now live in regions where French has been spoken for over 30 years. Because I have learned French myself (and I am still learning other languages), I can easily put myself in a student's shoes. I can teach in French, Dutch, English, German and Russian.

Chevaan:
Catherina is without a doubt THE best tutor we know. She is exceptionally committed and is always looking to inspire her students. She has consistently gone above and beyond the call of duty to help our son with his German. She provides excellent study material, engaging homework and follows up to ensure that her students have really grasped the subject matter.

Brian:
Catharina has been teaching our 11-year-old daughter for the past few months, and we are very impressed with her excellent progress in this short space of time.
Catharina has developed a very good rapport with our daughter and is patient and knowledgeable. Our daughter always looks forward to her next lesson and even hands in her homework on time! We would highly recommend Catharina to anyone who would like to learn a new language.

Afeisha:
Very professional, friendly and informative. I feel like Catharina will help me to reach where I need to. She doesn't just teach from the book, she teaches in a way that will allow you to blend in with ease. I am excited to learn more from her.

Egle:
Great tutor! Catharina adapts lessons to one's needs, gives very clear explanations and most importantly works on the pronunciation of the language. With every lesson she provides lesson material.

Hello there!

Do you need help with IB or IGCSE Economics, English or Politics? Are teachers just not enough? Well then, let me help you!

My name is Lauend, a student pursuing a BSc in Political Science. I am an experienced tutor specializing in IB and IGCSE Economics, English, and Politics, with a strong academic background and a student-centred teaching approach.

Having completed both IGCSE and the International Baccalaureate, I understand these curricula from the inside—not just in terms of content, but in how examiners think, how mark schemes are structured, and where students commonly lose marks. This allows me to teach strategically, with a clear focus on exam performance, conceptual understanding, and long-term academic confidence.

I already have hands-on tutoring experience with students at different ability levels, ranging from those aiming to consolidate core knowledge to high-achievers targeting top grades. Each student receives a curated learning plan, adapted to their strengths, weaknesses, pace, and academic goals. I have taught and supported IGCSE and IB DP students at schools such as the Amsterdam International Community School and the Rotterdam International Secondary School.

Through my holistic, tailor-made tutoring for each student, I can help you not only achieve higher marks in IB and IGCSE, but also (and more importantly) understand and apply these subjects in the real world, a useful skill that will become increasingly valuable throughout life.

Whether you’re aiming to boost your grades, sharpen your essays, or finally feel confident walking into exams, I’m here to help make the process clearer, calmer, and more effective.

My name is Ron, a dedicated Dutch tutor based in Suriname. Originally trained as an HVAC engineer with the intention of continuing my father’s legacy, I transitioned into teaching during the pandemic after discovering my passion for language education. This shift allowed me to embrace remote work while connecting with learners globally.

Outside of teaching, I take pride in my family life as a happily married professional who finds fulfillment in helping others achieve their language goals.
