-Prepare yourself optimally for your tests or final exams (VMBO to VWO)

-Practice difficult topics (genetics, redox reactions, and polymerization)

-Take your tests or exams with confidence

My name is Maarten, and I have been tutoring biology and chemistry for a year at VMBO to VWO level, mainly through Bijles aan Huis. I enjoy helping students grow and, with a few extra lessons, giving them confidence in the subject again.

In recent times I have successfully guided about 60 students.

My approach is patient, precise and together with the student. I don't rattle off the material for an hour, but let the students explain as much as possible, repeat and answer questions. That's how you learn best!

I have a Bachelor of Science in Pharmacy, with a lot of biology and chemistry. The tutoring is also online and preferably lasts 60 minutes.

In my free time I like to do sports – you can often find me in the gym, on the volleyball court or playing padel. I also play guitar and enjoy crime films, with Heat as my absolute favorite.

If desired, we will make a plan together so that you can start your exam with confidence.

Reviews
Ginger - "Thanks to the clear explanation, patience and personal approach, I have understood the material much better. Maarten really takes the time to answer questions and prepare the tutoring. He adapts the lessons to my level and learning needs, which is very pleasant. I really notice progress and feel more confident in the subject. Definitely recommended!"

About Me

🇳🇱 (English below) Hoi! Ik ben Michiel, 38 jaar en ik kom oorspronkelijk uit Baarn (Utrecht). Mijn middelbare school heb ik daar ook gedaan (Het Baarnsch Lyceum). Ik vond sportles, geschiedenis en aardrijkskunde de leuke vakken. Scheikunde en biologie gingen mij makkelijk af.

Naast een studie farmacie op de Rijksuniversiteit Groningen (dit gaat over medicijnen, en hoe deze in je lichaam werken), heb ik mij een paar jaar verdiept in persoonlijke ontwikkeling. Ik heb geleerd met druk om te gaan, en motivatie te vinden voor saaie of moeilijke dingen. Hiermee kan ik jou ook goed helpen!

Ik geef biologie en scheikunde. Mijn aanpak is geduldig en ondersteunend. School is al lastig genoeg!

Stuur gerust een berichtje en dan maken we even kennis, zonder ergens aan vast te zitten!😃

🇬🇧 Hi! I’m Michiel, 38 years old, originally from Baarn (Utrecht). I attended high school there as well (Het Baarnsch Lyceum). My favorite subjects were P.E., history, and geography. Chemistry, biology, and math came easily to me.

In addition to studying pharmacy at the university of Groningen (which is about medicines and how they work in your body), I spent a few years focusing on personal development. I learned how to manage pressure and find motivation for boring or challenging tasks. I can help you with these too!

I can assist with the material and help you learn more effectively—whether it’s practical strategies or motivation.

Feel free to send me a message, and we can get to know each other without any obligations! 😃

I am a MSc in Civil Engineering, M.Sc in Finance and Economics, and an MBA graduate with over 14 years of experience teaching Mathematics up to the undergraduate level. Over the years, I have worked with a wide range of students and have successfully helped them excel in their studies. In addition to my extensive teaching background, I have more than 7 years of experience guiding students through standardized tests such as the GRE and SAT. My goal is to help you master these tests with effective strategies and a clear understanding of the subject matter.

If you're looking for an organised and professional teacher to help you achieve your academic goals, look no further! The IB science subjects can be extremely difficult to go through on your own, and I'll be glad to use my experience to help you out.

A couple of things I like to do:

- Initial test or interview to assess your level.
- Use Notion as a platform to share all my resources.
- Use mock papers that lay out the exercises JUST like in the real exams, so you will feel really prepared.
- I give homework when appropriate.
- I provide any kind of mentoring and college counseling. People who study Biology and Chemistry usually want to pursue a clinical career-- and that is a complex process!
