English tutoring at home for lower-level pre-vocational secondary education (MAVO), senior general secondary education (HAVO), and pre-university education (VWO) students in The Hague and surrounding areas by an experienced and qualified English teacher.

From 29 € /h

I explain the grammar by giving you the rules and examples from everyday life and from pop music.
We will make exercises from your own workbook to see if you understand it and you can learn from mistakes so that you don't make them again on your test.
We will also practice reading texts from old exams because that will be your final exam later on.
Usually the grades of my tutors go up quickly.
I come to the student's home to give tutoring at the table in the afternoon.

Extra information

Bring an A4 notebook with you for all notes I give you about grammar and idiom so that you can use them to do exercises and look back on how it went later. When you get a test you can go through everything again so that you know how to do it again.

About Me

I have taught English for years at the lower levels of the mavo, havo and vwo.
I explain the grammar on the blackboard or on paper the old-fashioned way and let the student apply it themselves if it is understood.
We read reading texts together and we then answer the multiple choice questions by searching carefully in the text where the answer is exactly.

My name is Marija and I've recently moved from Germany where I have been an English teacher in a private language school and Volkshochschule, and a private tutor.
I am a passionate linguist who lives the languages. I teach all levels and prepare kids and young adults for exams and help them expand their knowledge. Languages are the most beautiful thing in the world and I always try to make language closer to the student, no need for pressure and stress, everything can be learned with little bit of patience and will :) I work with individuals and groups.

Hello parents! My name is Sandra. I am a native English speaker from New York State. I have a USA teaching license and a Bachelor's Degree in Childhood Inclusive Education (Grades K-6 and Students with Disabilities) from the State University of New York at Fredonia. My experiences include teaching at primary international schools in Belgrade, Serbia for 2 years and 3 years at international schools in The Hague, Netherlands. I have worked at two IB primary schools. Alongside teaching at international schools, I have 8 years of experience teaching English. I also have experience teaching grade 1 and 3 in elementary schools in New York State. I have taught children from 2-17 years old and adults. My students range in levels from beginners who are new to learning English, to fluent English speakers that need support or would like to further excel or maintain their fluency. Based on my experiences, I have learned to adjust my teaching style based on different students' needs, cultures, socioeconomic backgrounds, and learning abilities.

Lessons are provided to children and teenagers. Lessons are customized to the learning needs of your child. Whether that be learning English for the first time or practicing improvement of speaking, reading, comprehension, pronunciation, listening, writing, grammar, etc. Lessons can be aimed towards learning a topic such as food, animals, sports, emotions, and more.

For children who are fluent English speakers, tutoring can be given to further excel in particular areas. Subjects that interest the student such as science, history or world topics can be incorporated into the lesson to broaden their knowledge. Support can also be provided in learning organizational skills, research, and mini projects for older children. I am available to help with studying, homework, or school projects. For online learning, I use a variety of platforms, websites, educational games, and e-books to reach the learning goals of my students. Additional homework can be provided if requested.

Depending on the students age, lesson duration is adjusted. If you are looking for lessons for siblings, please reach out to me to discuss the best schedule for your children. My aim is to create a positive and enjoyable learning environment for all my students.

I hope you can join my English lessons! Please reach out to me if you have any questions. I can provide my resume or reference letters if requested. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Помогу в изучении английского языка. Будем практиковать письменный и устный английский, работать над грамматикой. Помогу начать изучение языка с нуля. Также для ребят, учащихся в школе, буду помогать со школьной программой и с домашними заданиями.
Также могу помочь с подготовкой к экзаменам как к государственным (ЕГЭ), так и к международным, таким как IELTS, TOEFL, SAT (имела опыт по сдаче каждого из перечисленных экзаменов).
Так как большое внимание уделяется при сдаче экзаменов на письменную часть, будем расширять глоссарий, учиться логично аргументировать свою позицию.
Большое внимание будем уделять разговорному английскому, общаться на разные темы, что поможет также расширить словарный запас, смотреть видеоролики на английском, обсуждать их.

I am Claudia, an Italian student who studies International Studies in The Hague. I lived in Luxembourg where I attended the European School of Luxembourg II where I studied French, Spanish, English, and Italian as well as Economics for four years. Living in Luxembourg gave me the opportunity to learn and speak many different languages fluently since it is a multicultural country.

I grew up in New Zealand and lived there for 6 years. Additionally, I received a one-year scholarship to study in the USA, which means I speak English as good as a native speaker. I have taken English classes in primary, middle, and high school. I have also taken English Literature classes and Presentation Speaking classes in English. During my final year of high school, taking the International Baccalaureate Program and English B at Higher Level, I received a 7 (highest grade) on my final oral exam and a 7 on my final written exam. I am able to tutor in holding conversations, meaning learning through having discussions with a native speaker. I may also teach literature, the analysis of texts, prepare for exams such as International Baccalaureate, SAT, or basic standardized testing.

I believe English is the international language of the world and is a basic tool of the 21st century. However, at times, it may seem complex. I believe teaching through having discussions is the best way to learn. I would prepare structured classes that would enable you to learn effectively and repeat the previously acquired knowledge in order to memorize it and successfully become more fluent and comfortable in the language.

Please reach out if any further information is needed.

Hola,

My name is Ashley! I've had many experiences tutoring and working with children of different age groups and backgrounds, because I'm especially passionate about helping people overcome their learning barriers and achieve their potential. I am a native English and Chinese speaker, who have also grown up speaking Bahasa Indonesian. I am comfortable teaching Maths up to High School advanced level (depending on the syllabus eg. GCSE, International Baccalaureate), and English and Literature for both second-language and first-language speakers.
Essentially, I am interested to help you according to your needs, whether that is after-school homework, extra classes about a difficult concept, proofreading your essay, or learning a new language. If you have any questions or would like to discuss this a bit further, just reach out!

Arabic is my mother tongue and I am graduated in English literature. I use the Mastering Arabic methodology from Jane Wightwick and Mahmoud Mahmood Gaafar. This method can fit for multiple purposes, school & homework help, professional or leisure usage of the language.
I can adapt and customize the lessons depending on the need of the student.

💬 A customised English pronunciation training course with a dedicated native-speaking coach will enhance your communication skills, boost your confidence, and ensure you can be easily understood in English conversations, presentations and meetings.

WHAT WILL I LEARN?
🗣️ Pronunciation for Public Speaking and Conversation is a course that identifies and resolves the issues that make people struggle to understand you. Common issues include:

• speaking too fast or slow
• having a confusing or flat intonation
• missing or overemphasising weak sounds
• stressing the wrong parts of words or sentences
• not linking sounds together
• talking with a rhythm that isn't natural to English

We will use a mix of techniques from shadowing and repetition exercises to dramatic readings and real-time speaking practice. We will also use specialist software called Praat so that you can visualise your speech, hear yourself back and make immediate changes to your pronunciation. It's highly effective and pretty fun too!

Our goal: make your speech clearer, more expressive, more enjoyable to listen to and easier to follow.

WHAT MAKES YOUR LESSONS STAND OUT?
First, they’re accessible. In this industry, professional pronunciation training sessions are often priced at €100 an hour or more. That model leaves many people without support. I believe quality teaching shouldn’t be a luxury.

Second, they’re personal. Too many pronunciation courses recycle the same generic materials for everyone. I design each lesson around your needs and issues so the time you spend actually moves you forward.

Finally, they’re research-based. A lot of pronunciation teaching still relies on outdated methods that don’t reflect what we know about how languages are learned. I use approaches grounded in linguistics and pedagogy, so your effort translates into lasting progress.

WHO SIGNS UP FOR AN ENGLISH PRONUNCIATION COURSE?
The Pronunciation for Public Speaking and Conversation course is ideal for people who engage in presentations, lectures, speeches or moderating, or simply for people who want to be more confident in everyday conversation.

Pronunciation training benefits professionals from a variety of sectors. My clients include consultants, creatives, therapists, lecturers, teachers, performers, bankers, estate agents, hosts, broadcasters, corporate trainers, small business owners, international executives, and facilitators.

⭐ If you are looking for a more comprehensive pronunciation coaching that goes into all the sounds of your accent, please check out my other course on Apprentus, "English Pronunciation and Accent Coaching / Training with a Native Teacher".

ABOUT ME
My name’s Tom and I’m an English teacher from Southeast England. Now I live in the Hague, Netherlands. I teach English learners how to communicate more clearly.

I have taught for various schools and agencies in the Netherlands and been frustrated by the lack of high-quality materials and expertise in the pronunciation teaching field. So in 2021 I set up my freelance teaching business to change the situation.

I have over 12 years of teaching experience, and I have a master's degree in Linguistics from Leiden University, with a specialisation in English Linguistics. I am trained in speech analysis software, which is a highly effective (and fun!) tool that helps learners not only hear but also visualise their mistakes.

I speak Finnish (my mum's side is from Finland), Mandarin Chinese (I lived in Taiwan for six years) and French (because I love the sound of it). I also know smatterings of other languages like Dutch, Spanish and Japanese. I am also an English language nerd and will happily talk your head off about why British people say "wa'er", what “muscles” have to do with mice, or why English spelling is so beautifully bizarre.

Hi I am 21 years old and am currently a student at Leiden University doing a bachelor of sciences in environmental sustainability. I completed my A levels in Maths, Physics and Biology with grades A in Maths and Biology. I also did an AS level in Chemistry from the British School in the Netherlands.

I love science and geography and did my primary education in English and got all grade 9s in my science and geography GCSEs and a grade 8 in Maths. I have some prior tutoring experiences as well so I hope I will be able to use it all to help you get your target grades for any exam. I am able to provide lessons in any sciences, geography, English or Maths topics that are at GCSE level or below! I can also help with any subject such as Drama, Food tech or History!
