Over

Hi there,

I’m Jane. I’m Scottish and currently live by the sea in Kent in England. I believe we can all work better for our own benefit and improve our mental well being. My approach is holistic as everyone comes with their own knowledge and skills base which we build on together.

I’m currently studying for a PhD in medical history. Before this, I was an educational development tutor at a veterinary college. I’m a registered veterinary nurse who has 10 years education experience. This includes lecturing, clinical skills and assessments.

I’m a PgCert in clinical education, and a qualified coach and mentor.

Let’s work together!

After completing IB English Lang/Lit HL and receiving 7s in my HL Essays and IO, I am ready to help others achieve their highest potential when it comes to essay writing.

In my recent written university work I have received 80+/100 and this grade range is the Highest Distinction.

We will begin with a first lesson in order to get to know each other and see whether our goals align. We will discuss what exactly you need help with and make a weekly tutoring schedule. This is especially important when it comes to planning and writing HL essays and IOs. I will provide you with feedback, help you structure your work and read through it with you. I will also set deadlines for the next class that I expect you to meet. Keep in mind I pay great attention to grammar, spelling and overall clarity. IOs can be especially daunting, the idea of speaking for 10 minutes straight in essay format scared me too but I did it and received a 7, and I am here to provide you with tips and advice on how to achieve this.

I am looking for students who are open to receiving constructive criticism for their work. I promise I will approach all of our lessons with patience, kindness, motivation and support!

Hello! 안녕세요! My name is Aki and I will soon graduate with a bachelor's degree in "Korean Studies" at Leiden University, part of which I spent at Sogang University in South Korea. During my studies, I mainly focus on pronunciation and conversation. However, during my stay in Korea, I noticed a big difference between "textbook Korean" and the Korean that people speak in everyday life. In my lessons, I try to keep this difference as small as possible and make it sound as natural as possible by focusing on conversations and modern vocabulary. We work with grammar, vocabulary and conversations around an overarching theme.
Although I have a basic package for beginners, I find it very important to look at the goals of the student. If you have specific goals or suggestions such as understanding K-pop songs, K-dramas or achieving Topik level 1-2, ... then I will gladly put together a personal package with matching themes that we will cover together.
Are you a complete beginner? Don't worry! All levels are welcome! Step by step you will learn to read and write the alphabet using handy, secret tips that I and others secretly used :).
I am happy to share my knowledge that I have gained over the years, and help you discover the adventure of the Korean language together! Hwaiting! 화이팅!

*** THE COURSE: This course is designed for adults (18+) who want to learn Dutch in a structured and motivating way. We’ll use the textbook "Nederlands in Gang", a complete method that takes you up to level A2 (and beyond, see below!). It’s a very comprehensive program, which makes guided lessons with an experienced teacher the perfect way to follow it.

*** YOUR TEACHER... CHRISTIAAN: My name is Christiaan, and I’m a Dutch teacher with over 8 years of experience teaching at an international school. I was born in the Netherlands and speak both Dutch and English fluently. Besides teaching languages, I’m also a piano teacher and I am writing a Dutch children’s book. People often say that those from Haarlem speak the clearest Dutch — so you’ll be in expert hands!

*** YOUR CURRENT ABILITY: If you already have some knowledge of Dutch, we can continue with the next books in the same series (Nederlands in Actie, Nederlands op Niveau, Nederlands naar Perfectie). The method includes self-checks and progress tests so you can clearly track your improvement.

*** THE LESSONS: Lessons are held online via Microsoft Teams or Zoom. If you live near Haarlem, you’re welcome to join in person. Weekly participation is essential. Learning a language takes dedication, but with consistent effort, you’ll be amazed at your progress. Whether you can study 15 minutes a day or an hour, we’ll find a rhythm that fits your schedule! Ready to start your Dutch journey? Let’s begin!

I am a French teacher (with a degree in French and Romance languages and literatures with a focus on teaching). I support young people from across the French-speaking world (Switzerland, Belgium, France) in their academic journey to help them achieve better results in French and, above all, gain more self-confidence.

I work with both native teenagers and foreign students living in French-speaking countries.

I adapt to the curriculum, exams and assessments provided by their school.

Looking forward to meeting your children,
Regards,
Laurie

Make Mathematics your Second Language.

In high school and college I suffered from test anxiety.

But later I taught myself to get 99th percentile scores on the GMAT and SAT.

Now with more than 100 happy wizards trained in Amsterdam alone, since 2015.

No scams. Lots of patience. I came from the humanities. My math was hmm and meh in high school. Now a Wizard, with test scores to prove it.
