IB & IGCSE Economics, English (Advanced or ESL) & Politics — Personalized Tutoring

A partir de 35.33 $ /h

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.

Acerca de mí

My name is Lauend, and I am a university student pursuing a BSc in Political Science, with a strong academic background in IGCSE and the International Baccalaureate. I tutor IB and IGCSE Economics, English (including ESL), and Politics, and I already have hands-on experience working with students at different levels and with different goals.

As a teacher, I would describe myself as structured, analytical, and student-focused. I do not believe in one-size-fits-all tutoring. Every student thinks, learns, and progresses differently, so I take the time to understand how each student works before tailoring lessons to their specific needs. Some students need clarity and structure, others need confidence, and others need to be challenged more rigorously—I adapt accordingly.

My teaching style is both holistic and exam-aware. This means I focus not only on content, but also on skills: how to structure arguments, how to write clearly and convincingly, how to evaluate rather than describe, and how to think the way examiners expect. Having completed IGCSE and IB myself, I know where students tend to struggle and how small adjustments can lead to significant improvements in grades.

I particularly enjoy working with motivated students who want to improve, whether they are aiming to catch up, consolidate their understanding, or push for top marks. I also enjoy working with ESL students, helping them gain confidence, precision, and fluency while still meeting academic expectations.

Above all, I aim to create a learning environment that is calm, supportive, and effective. Lessons are focused, clear, and purposeful but never intimidating. My goal is for students to leave each session understanding why something works, not just what the answer is.

If you are looking for a tutor who is approachable, well-prepared, and genuinely invested in your progress, I would be very happy to work with you.

I am a native Spanish speaker and a passionate english writer; this class is for young students, kids and even adults who want to learn, practice and master the Spanish language or improve their english writing.. both works. I work casually: I am open for conversational learning, as well as direct help with school/class work, a text and reading. I peer edit essays and creative pieces. I tutor on blogging and short writing too. The classes are designed specifically for the students needs, goals and projects. I take one-on-one students but also small groups if thats the case :)

Tutor in both English and Spanish. As a native English speaker, I am competent to teach any level from Grammar and written English, to causal conversation to improve practical skills. As a near-native Spanish speaker (C1/C2), I am competent to teach any age and ability. Having learnt the language myself, I have an advantage in teaching it to others, as I understand where common mistakes are made and student are confused. I specialize in teaching Spanish to English speakers or English to Spanish speakers, as I can communicate effectively in both languages and appreciate where common difficulties lie.

I have experience teaching a huge range of students, from pre-school children to adults. I use a variety of fun, effective learning tools and methods, which will be suited to each individual student. The student controls the content and the set-up of the lessons alongside constant, informal review to ensure we are always working together to meet their goals. We work at the student's pace, ability and preferred method of learning, tailoring our sessions to meet their desired outcomes. I operate in a completely honest, open environment, where there are no such things as a stupid mistake or question!

Learning a foreign language can be hard, especially in a country where it is not widely spoken. I can help with that. I am a native Spanish and English speaker with experience teaching both languages. I can help you work towards a goal or simply improve on what you already have. I can teach in person or online.

Would you like to improve your English or do you need an explanation about grammar? You've come to the right place. I did my master's degree in mechanical engineering in English and I am fluent in the English language. The teaching method depends on the student. If the student has received a teaching method from school, this teaching method will be used during the tutoring. If this is not the case, a teaching method that I have purchased will be used. During the lessons, attention is paid not only to spelling and vocabulary, but also pronunciation. The latter is missing in many courses and tutoring. I will help you improve your pronunciation!

Hello there! I am a university student at Erasmus University and would be thrilled to help others learn the languages I am comfortable and confident speaking! I am Italian and would happily teach such a dear to me! Moreover, I have always studied in a French-speaking school, making me fluent in both languages and prepared to juggle and learn languages myself. Additionally, I have been studying English since I was four and am currently studying for my bachelor's degree in English! I have certificates for all the languages I speak, and as I have, been learning multiple languages since a young age, I consider myself fit to help others understand them too! The structure of lessons would be customized to the wants and needs of my students, and therefore we would set goals together and work towards them!

Below are all my langauge certificates and grades!

italian: terza media 9/10, maturita' italiana 100/100
french: baccalaureat 18/20, in the subject french writing (17/20) speaking (20/20)
english: literature GCSE 8/9, IELTS certificate 8 (level C1)
