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.

I am an enthusiastic teacher who has taught general and business English, and English for academic purposes. Having experience with both teenagers and adults, I specialize in tutoring English based on four skills: Listening, Reading, Speaking and Writing.

I plan my lessons regarding the student's needs and goals. In my lessons, I prefer using different teaching coursebooks and authentic resources (e.g. online articles, newspapers, magazines).

Since I have studied in different disciplines such as language teaching, literature and communication sciences, I could promise various lesson contents in each lesson to keep you excited during your learning process.

If you would like to learn English with me, please feel free to get in touch! I hope to hear from you soon!

Like no other, I know how difficult it can be to structure a research or project in a short time. You want to distinguish main issues from side issues and be in the final report to-the-point in communicating the results.

From MBO level 2 I went on to a doctorate in astrophysics at the University of Amsterdam. During this path, I have written hundreds of reports, published 6 scientific articles and presented my findings hundreds of times both informally and formally.

In addition, I have been a successful thesis supervisor of 3 bachelor students and 1 master's student.

I would like to help you get the best out of yourself with the help of my knowledge and experience. However, I do not want to do this with a leadership mentality, but from an advisory mentality in which we can put together as equals a nice end product that we both support. I can offer concrete support for your research/project in:

- Setup and planning

- Doing literature study

- Quality assurance

- Presentation and structure/content

- Popularizing the topics with catchy texts

- Review with a critical look

- Give layout and design input

- And much more

Do you think I can help you or do you want to know more? I would love to hear from you!

The foundation of a child’s education is a crucial step in their learning journey. In my tutoring sessions, it’s essential to assess each student’s current level to identify where they need the most support and determine the best starting point for their educational development.

I plan my lessons around the specific subjects where the student requires assistance, ensuring that each session is tailored to meet their individual needs and help them progress confidently.

I offer personalized Turkish and English language tutoring focused on real communication, confidence, and individual learning goals. My teaching style is flexible, attentive, and adapted to each student rather than strictly following a textbook structure.

I have experience working only with adult students. I have taught English to private students in a friendly and productive setting, and I currently teach Turkish to a director at International Documentary Film Festival Amsterdam (IDFA). These experiences helped me develop a teaching approach that is both structured and personal.

For every student, I:
Prepare lessons individually according to their needs, interests, and level
Keep detailed notes of recurring mistakes and areas that need improvement
Revise and adjust the course plan weekly based on progress
Focus on speaking, comprehension, grammar, pronunciation, and natural usage together
Create a comfortable and motivating learning environment

Classes take place once a week on a fixed day and time, and can be either:
1 hour
1.5 hours

Lessons can be held:
Online
In person around Amsterdam

My approach is especially suitable for students looking for a more adaptive, engaging, and needs-based learning experience rather than a rigid textbook format.

Everyone is talking about AI. Most people are still just typing into ChatGPT and hoping for the best.
This class is for professionals, creatives, and curious people who want to actually understand how AI works — and use it as a real tool in their work. Not prompt tricks. Not another subscription app. Real, practical literacy that gives you control.
I've spent 15+ years building machine learning infrastructure at scale — recommendation systems, ranking models, large-scale data pipelines — at companies including Booking.com. I now run my own AI systems locally, build agents that automate real workflows, and teach governance frameworks to organisations navigating AI adoption. I know both the engineering side and the human side of this technology.
What we cover — tailored to your situation:

How AI models actually work (without the math) — what they can and can't do, and why
How to use AI tools effectively in your specific profession or creative practice
How to evaluate AI output critically — spotting hallucinations, bias, and overconfidence
What "running your own AI" means and whether it makes sense for you
Automation: how to build simple AI workflows that save you real time
AI governance basics: what the EU AI Act means for your work, your organisation, or your clients

Who this is for:
Professionals who work with or alongside AI tools and want to understand what they're actually dealing with. Creatives, freelancers, small business owners, managers, researchers. Anyone who feels like they're falling behind and wants to get genuinely ahead.
Not for: Developers looking for a coding bootcamp. This is literacy and applied use, not engineering.
Taught in: English (Dutch available)
Format: 1-on-1, sessions structured around your actual work and questions — not a generic slide deck
You'll need: A laptop and a specific context you want to apply AI to. The more concrete your situation, the more useful the session.
