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.

Lessons are tailored to each student depending on their age, level and interests. I teach piano and basic guitar, combining classical training with music theory, composing and pop music, so there’s always a mix rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. For younger students who are learning to read music, I also introduce basic composing. Writing their own simple pieces makes the notes more meaningful and keeps them engaged. Before booking, please check the schedule to confirm availability and read through the listing details before confirming your first lesson.

Have you been interested in learning to make delicious and filling meals without animal products, but not sure where to start? Well, I am here to help! I trained as a professional chef in Los Angeles and ran kitchens for 12 years, both on the west coast of the states and in Amsterdam. Throughout my career I was invested in making vegetarian and vegan cooking a staple of every restaurant I worked in, and showing people how nutritious and delicious this ethical diet can be. I have also spent years working with farmers and market gardeners as well as in supermarkets focussing on understanding where food comes from. Additionally, as a flexitarian for almost 20 years ( I eat animal products a few times a year) I am well-versed in how to build a healthy diet and save money and time! I'd love to work with you to feel confident about using new products and expanding your understanding of nutrition and cooking techniques from the vegan and vegetarian kitchen. I can also give group lessons and family classes

This is what a lesson with me looks like. As a student at the TU, I tutor mathematics (all levels and all profiles — Mathematics A, B, C, and D) and physics to students in VMBO, HAVO, and VWO. Whether you are stuck on a single topic, want to improve your grade, or are preparing for your final exams: I tailor the lesson to your needs. A typical one-hour lesson looks like this. We start with a short check-in: what did you cover in class this week, what did you struggle with, and what homework or test is coming up? Based on that, we determine the focus of the lesson together. Then we get to the material. I explain the topic again, but in a way that resonates with you — with examples, diagrams, or by going through a problem step by step together. I think it's important that you know not only the answer but also why something works. That makes a huge difference during tests, because you can then apply the material to problems you haven't seen before. Next, you will practice on your own while I observe. If you get stuck, I will provide guidance; if things are going well, I will move on to a more difficult variation. We will conclude with a brief summary of what we have done and agree on what you will work on independently until the next lesson. Between classes, you can always send me a message with a question or a photo of a problem you can't figure out — that's part of it. What I can help you with Explanation of difficult topics: algebra, functions, trigonometry, differentiation and integration, probability, vectors, mechanics, electricity, and everything related. Homework assistance and test preparation Exam training Mathematics A/B/C/D and Physics (HAVO and VWO) Catch up if you have just moved to a higher level or chosen a new profile Approach Mathematics and physics are subjects that you only truly understand once you have worked with them yourself. My role is to clarify the material, give you the confidence to persevere, and teach you how to tackle a problem independently — so that you are no longer dependent on me during the test. Lessons can take place at home or online via video call, whichever suits you best.

With my background in social work and international studies, I pride myself on being an empathetic and effective communicator.

Hi I'm Daniel, an enthusiastic and dedicated guitar teacher who loves meeting his students' own goals. By combining my 6 years of experience in teaching guitar with my students' own interests, I help my students make progress in the most engaging way possible. I provide my students with a grounding in the basics of technique and theory to make sure they develop good habits, enabling them to make use of the near-infinite resources online when they want to play and learn more in their free time and later in life. I believe a good teacher is one who makes their students able to go on independently and with joy and passion for their instrument. Learn your favourite songs, demystify music theory, learn how songs are written (and get help writing your own), learn to play songs by ear, explore a range of genres... I look forward to helping you with your own musical journey!
