Over
Hello! My name is Maddison and I'm an American from California looking to share my passion for the English language and cultural exchange in Amsterdam. As a native English speaker with a Bachelor's in sociology and cultural studies, I'm excited to connect with people from diverse backgrounds and help them improve their English skills.

In my studies, I developed a strong focus on writing and cross-cultural communication. I enjoy breaking down complex topics, providing constructive feedback, and inspiring creative expression. My tutoring style is flexible and adaptive - I tailor my approach to each student's unique goals and learning style.

Whether my students want to focus on writing/grammar skills, improving conversational fluency, or simply want to explore English through a cultural lens, I'm here to support you every step of the way. Learning a new language should be a fun experience - I believe practicing through natural conversation alongside structured exercises can be a great combination for retaining new phrases. Together, we can dive into interesting discussions, refine your writing, and expand your English proficiency in a supportive and engaging environment.

I look forward to connecting with you and learning about your language journey! Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions.
Opleiding
I graduated Magna Cum Laude from high school and went on to earn my Bachelor's degree in Sociology from the University of California, Santa Barbara. During my time at UCSB, I developed a strong foundation in cultural studies, cross-cultural communication, and qualitative research methods. My coursework and extracurricular activities gave me unique insights into how language, identity, and interpersonal dynamics intersect across different societies.
Leservaring
I have previous experience as both a writing and language tutor as well as an essay editor for children and high school students. In these roles, I honed my ability to break down complex topics, provide constructive feedback, and inspire creative self-expression in my students.
