Biology, Geography and Portuguese MYP and IB tutoring

Van 35.33 $ /h

Do you want to excel in the MYP or IB program but need a little extra help? I am here to guide you every step of the way. As a former MYP and IB student, I understand the unique challenges these programs present.

Growing up in Mozambique, I didn't have access to tutors, so out of necessity, I took the initiative to form a study group with my peers. This experience helped me develop strong teaching skills and a deep understanding of the curriculum.

I specialize in teaching Biology and Geography at both standard and high levels, as well as Portuguese language instruction for MYP and IB students or language learners. My teaching methodology involves a comprehensive approach to learning, where I explain concepts in detail and encourage students to ask questions and actively participate in the learning process. I believe that everyone has the potential to succeed and I am committed to helping my students reach their full potential.

Over

I am a easy going person that has a passion for sciences, especially biology and physical geography.
I did the MYP and IB programs at AISM in Mozambique where I graduated with the IB Bilingual Diploma.
I moved to The Netherlands to study Environmental Sustainability and Conservation and Energy and Resource Management at Leiden University in The Hague.
During my schooling years, I have both been an average student to becoming one of the top of the class. This happened mainly because of the teachers I had and so I understand the importance of a good teacher that is able to explain concepts through different angles in order to target everyone's learning methods and abilities.
I want to help students because I didn't have this help and I know I would have truly benefited from it.

Oi Tudo bem? My name is Marcelo and I am from São Paulo.

I teach Portuguese and Brazilian Portuguese in The Hague and Rotterdam. Fortunately, I can combine my university studies and 23 years of practical teaching experience in such a way that the lessons are well-founded and stimulating.

I have lived and studied in Brazil and Portugal (Coimbra), so I am a native speaker, with a lot of knowledge of the associated culture. By twist of fate, I am also bilingual, so I can explain grammar in Dutch and vice versa. My training is focused on speaking skills.

For years I also gave business training at two very well-known language schools, so I know how to transfer a lot of knowledge in a short time. As a student you will feel this immediately from the first lesson.

Learning Portuguese for business or urgently (within 10 working days) is also possible. I have a Chamber of Commerce and VAT number.

I have a lot of experience teaching lessons via Teams of Whereby (Whereby is more professional and European), even before the crisis because I also teach students in other countries.

For virtual lessons, you will receive a transcript of the lesson by email after the lesson. Classes at my home are also possible with 6 feet of distance and good circulation.

My lessons are very structured and step by step. In addition, I always explain the 'why' of a grammatical topic, which creates a link that also works better for memory and makes the lesson more interesting.

Because I am so results-oriented, I try to gently guide trainees up the stairs to full speaking skills and my job is to make the lessons as educational and attractive as possible.

Abraços (kind regards)
Marcelo

Would you like to learn a new skill? You've come to the right place. I am Portuguese and I am fluent in this fantastic language. During my Portuguese lessons you will not only learn the language, but I will also enrich your knowledge about Portuguese culture: Portuguese customs and superstitions for example. I use a teaching method that covers spelling, vocabulary and pronunciation of the words. The latter is often missing in other courses and tutoring. Together we will ensure that you have a good command of the Portuguese language!

Biology, Chemistry and Mathematics B are not easy subjects in high school
Although they seem difficult, they are (if you understand the intricacies and way of thinking well) very easy to understand!
I tutor at secondary school level for biology, chemistry and mathematics B to V5.

I am currently a third year student in pre-med at Erasmus University College, and a second year in mechanical engineering at TU Delft. I am proficient in teaching in English and can explain stuff in Dutch, but at a slightly slower pace as it is my second language. I can essentially tutor all STEM subjects with a week's notice due to my coursework in almost all field but here is a list I am most comfortable with: Mathematics, Physics, Biology (not plant biology), Chemistry, Computer science (Matlab and Python), principles of engineering design (including SolidWorks) and Economics. My previous experience with teaching is both at a university level as an education and research assistant for Behavioural Economics, and as a part-time high school teacher for biology and Mathematics.
In my free time, I like to play tennis and grab a drink with my friends – I am extremely compassionate, but I value my time and hope that you can match my enthusiasm in class. I did the IB program in high school and scored a 42.

In class, we will cover all subjects related to biology and medicine that the student wants and considers important. This is of course often about the material that is tested at school, but if there is a need for my knowledge in the medical/medical field, I can also put together challenging lessons for that. For example, if there are students who feel attracted by the study of medicine, I can help them discover whether it is something for them through the lessons and help them further on their way.

Bijles voor basis- en middelbare scholieren. Ik heb het meest ervaring in het geven van bijles wiskunde en Nederlands, maar ook voor andere vakken kan je bij mij terecht.
De bijlessen worden bij voorkeur gegeven bij de leerling thuis. De leerling kan zich namelijk doorgaans beter concentreren in een vertrouwde omgeving.

Both Brazilian and European Portuguese. We will start with the basic grammar of the Portuguese language. Depending on the pace and experience of the student, conversation will gradually take place in Portuguese. You will receive useful and practical tips to make learning the language even more fun.

Biology is a fascinating and complex subject that unravels the intricacy of life, from molecular interactions within cells to disease systems and how we fight them. Whether you're preparing for IB Biology, university courses, or looking to strengthen your understanding, success requires dedication and comprehension of biological topics.

With an IB Higher Level Biology background, a Bachelor’s from the Maastricht Science Programme, and a Master of Science in Molecular Medicine from Imperial College London, I understand the challenges students face when grasping new concepts, dealing with assignments and preparing for exams. My goal is to simplify complex topics like genetics, physiology, and disease systems in an engaging, clear, and effective way.

My tutoring sessions are tailored to your needs, whether it’s exam prep, concept clarification, or advanced study. My interactive approach ensures a deeper understanding, building your confidence in biology one step at a time and at your own pace.

I look forward to helping you succeed!

Hello! 👋

My name is Rafael and I’m from Portugal! :)

I would love to help you on this adventure of learning the Portuguese language.
I’m fluent in teaching both bacalhau Portuguese and caipirinha Portuguese (PT & BR). I’m deeply involved with both cultures.

My classes are tailored to meet the needs of my students. I have the experience and skills to offer conversation lessons and/or more structured classes focused on grammar.
Whatever your reason for seeking Portuguese lessons, I’m here to listen and help you in any way I can.

FYI: I’m also a musician, so we can chat a lot about music or even incorporate it into our Portuguese lessons. Have you ever wanted to analyze the lyrics of Bossa Nova or Fado? If you love Brazilian or Portuguese music, we can definitely use it as class material.

I have been teaching at the Una Paloma Blanca language school in Rotterdam since 2020.

Here, I had the chance to really develop my teaching craft, working with many different students, each with their own needs and reasons for learning Portuguese. I had the opportunity to teach both European and Brazilian Portuguese to individual and group classes.

In addition to this work, I also provided private lessons to some students who needed preparation before moving to Brazil or Portugal.

In my classes, we set personal goals, and I help you with all the knowledge and experience I have.

My lessons are balanced with a good amount of conversation practice, grammar and exercises.

So, you want to learn Portuguese, but you’re still not sure if I’m the right person to help?

I would be delighted to do a lesson so we can introduce ourselves and discuss how I can assist you!

Let me show you how I can be a fun and efficient Portuguese tutor! :)

Thank you for your attention, and I hope to see you in class!
