Mathematics courses given by an experienced teacher

I usually teach math and economics in English to students who want to become scientists. I help write a good paper. As long as Corona is there, it is possible via Teams, Zoom, or Skype, but in principle, the lessons in my building are within walking distance of the Central Station.

Thijs really explained concepts well and broke down the essentials so I could better grasp the material in economics. He has been so helpful!

Rico (Ph.D)
Tutoring and support in science subjects at every educational level (also for deepening out of interest).
Building a good foundation for the science subjects is useful for everyone. It is especially essential that the teacher is skilled and didactic in building up the knowledge. I personally experienced that this was missing when I progressed from MBO level 2 to a PhD in physics at the University of Amsterdam. I would like to make a difference and send you on your way to the wonderful world of mathematics, physics and astronomy with a dose of self-confidence. For all secondary school levels and higher education, I can guide you with a plan to increase your knowledge and get the best out of yourself for tests, exams and examinations as well as to deepen your knowledge out of interest.

Mary

With 15 years of teaching experience in outstanding UK and international schools and a Master's degree in Primary Maths teaching, I can offer tutoring in all primary subjects for children aged 6-12. I am a patient and caring teacher who endeavors to make learning an enjoyable experience tailored to each child's specific needs. I strive to close knowledge gaps, which in turn leads to excellent progress. Additionally, I can accommodate siblings if necessary.

Diogo
Test preparation tutoring (Mathematics, physics and chemistry)
Important note: Unfortunately I am already fully booked at the moment and have no more time in the week to make new tutoring appointments. I have experience preparing students for their exams (mathematics, physics, and chemistry). Whether you are looking for a tutor to help you out with your studies and advise you throughout the year till the final exams or you are looking for some urgent classes right before the exams, you can contact me and I will help you plan your studies and projects, assist you with any exercises or content you may need assistance with and answer any questions you may have.

Sanne
Math for beginners, high school students, and calculating.
My name is Sanne and I studied math in high school on different levels. In the Netherlands, I did HAVO math a and b. Now I am studying VWO math b. I can offer help for beginners or if you need more explanation if you are in high school!

Sacha
Math tutoring for high school students (VMBO, HAVO, VWO, Gymnasium)
Update 31/10/2023: Currently there is no availability for new students. It is possible to be put on the waiting list, usually a spot becomes available within 2-3 months. During my studies in Econometrics at the University of Amsterdam (graduated in 2015, MSc.) and in addition to my job as a consultant, I have always taught mathematics and statistics to secondary school students and university students (HBO and WO) with great pleasure. Location: at home or in the public library (Amsterdam), Skype, Zoom Lessons can be taught in English or Dutch. It is possible to arrange group lessons (max 3 students).

Paul
Mathematics/ Statistics for High School english speaking students (or 1st year economics student)
This class is for english speaking students that wish to enhance their performance in mathematics (mainly for high school). Calculus, Algebra, Functions, Probabilities will be the main topics covered. Regarding the study progress, exercises will be at first solved with me and progressively I will give the student autonomy. I believe that practice makes perfect (after learning the theory), therefore the goal is cover as many exercises as possible during class.

Bibiána
Math tutoring for children: I will make your children excited about math
My perspective is that if a child enjoys learning, they are the most motivated and most successful. Therefore, I try to teach in a way that the children actually enjoy and are excited about coming to my tutoring. I really enjoy teaching and I believe that sometimes kids just need more encouraging words and playful ways to learn.

Dan
Mathematics tutoring for high school, first-year university students
As a 2nd year Bachelor's student in Mathematics, I can guide you to learn and enjoy this beautiful subject! I have experience as a Teaching Assistant at the renowned Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, I have participated and won numerous prizes at the Mathematics Olympiad in high school, and after my first year in University, I have been nominated for the Young Talent award. I am sure our tutoring lessons will be fun and interactive. I will teach you the subject in a matter tailored to your wishes and I am a calm and understanding person. You will see an improvement in the way you learn mathematics after a few sessions and you will have a deeper understanding of the science behind it. My tutoring includes: - high school level maths - first-year Bachelor's subjects including: Basic Concepts in Mathematics, Linear Algebra, Single Variable Calculus, Multivariable Calculus, Group Theory, and Mathematical Analysis. All subjects are tailored for your degree (I can teach for instance Linear Algebra for Mechanical Engineering, Econometrics, etc). I hope to hear from you soon!

Maths tutoring for students in secondary education or higher!
Mathematics is the an astonishing and wonderfully useful tool for talking about the world. Whether you want to understanding the behavior of a physical system, or predict the likelihood of an event, or just budget for your month, maths allows us to navigate the universe more easily. In this class I can help you understand maths at almost any level, whether you in high school trying to pass exams, or an adult tired of being perplex by strange symbols and ideas! We will discuss your goals for the class and I will curate a course to improve your knowledge, teaching you concepts and going through problems together, and by the end you will not only enjoy the subject, but also be better equipped to pass your exams or use maths in your everyday life.

Organizing homework, Help students become more confident about what they can (especially during exams) Math, Physics, Chemistry and History
In this class i help students to organize their homework and help they get good prepared for exams. I find it very important to help a student with understanding the course but also to help them gain more confidence about what they can. Math, Physics and Chemistry are all Beta subjects. I focus on really understanding the courses instead of learning you a trick. It’s also about a lot of practicing with those subjects. I also give History. It’s important to understanding connections between events and why people choose to act in a certain way.

Lex
Tutoring Maths / Physics / English online or in the Amsterdam / Den Helder area
Hi! My name is Lex. I have been tutoring mathematics and physics for secondary school in Den Helder for 3.5 years. Since this year I am now a bachelor's student in mathematics at the University of Amsterdam, and I am looking for a few new students to guide for tutoring. A few points that really set me apart from the rest are: - my tutoring experience, I have been giving 3.5 years of tutoring experience at many different levels - I work a lot less formally, this mainly ensures that the student is not afraid to ask questions or will feel "stupid" - I am very flexible with the times - I can explain everything in many different ways - the student can always send a WhatsApp message if something doesn't work out, and I will help him with that Online tutoring is certainly possible, and I also ensure that all notes that I make are forwarded so that they can be reviewed later. The best I recommend is a block of 2 hours in a row for tutoring, hereby I am sure that I can sufficiently help the student.

Martin
Maths, Physics, Science, Report Writing from Junior to University Level
I offer personalised tutoring to people of all ages, mainly grade schoolers, high schoolers as well as university students. As my undergraduate studies I did Electrical Engineering and Electronics at the University of Edinburgh, which I finished with 1st class honours. Therefore, I am comfortable with teaching Maths, Physics as well as other Natural Sciences necessary for A-levels or IB. Everyone can learn, but we all have different ways of learning and that's what makes us unique. Feeling lost is a natural state, which is necessary for growth. I can as well help with the application process for the UK universities. I live in Amsterdam and can teach at student's home.
