About Me

I am a mathematician based in the Netherlands (Amsterdam area), holding a PhD at Vrije Universiteit, with a significant academic experience (both research and teaching).

I also have experience with private tutoring. I can cover a wide range of high level math (related) topics (at BSc and MSc level), as well as assisting Master students in applying mathematical / statistical research methods and tools in their master projects in full compliance with the academic standards.

My primary focus is to help students overcome their math anxiety - which is one of the main reasons for students' lack of self confidence/initiative - and put them "on track" for individual study. For the more advanced students, I am looking to stimulate investigation skills required for a thorough understanding of the study subject.

When I was a young child, I believed I was not a mathematical person.

It wasn't until I met an amazing teacher at age 15 that I discovered my mathematical genius and my life was changed forever.

I'm eternally grateful to that teacher.

My teacher knew that self-image and self-belief is the key to unlocking your child's mathematical abilities.

Everyone is good at maths, but we all have different styles of thinking.

Bad teachers teach every child the same way.

My job is to find your child's style of mathematics and allow him to discover that for himself.

When he discovers that, he will begin to enjoy the beauty and power of mathematics...and then you will see as the grades begin to soar.

Maths is a subject that requires clarity of concepts. Sometimes it happens that our basic concepts are not clear thats why we are not able to solve questions efficiently. I'll be discussing with you where exactly you are, will come to your level, and then take you up with me from there.
I am a teacher with whom you can ask any basic silly concept to any complex one.

COURSE OUTLINE:
* Foundation of Mathematics
* Basic concepts in Mathematics
* Algebra and Trigonometry
* Elementary statistics
* Modern Geometry
* Calculus
* Differential Equations
This is an outline of the course. Apart from this, if you have any doubt on any particular topic, you can obviously clear that concept with me.

Let's start and make it fun.

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. Since 2022 I work parttime as a math teacher and educational advisor in the Emma Children's Hospital in Amsterdam and besides I teach private students.

Lessons can be taught in English or Dutch and face-to-face or online, depending on the location.

Location face-to-face classes: Citizen M Amsterdam, at your home or in the public library.

It is possible to arrange group lessons (max 3 students).

Welcome Student,

As a graduate of the Bachelor's program in Mathematics and Computer Science and the Master's program in Mathematics, I've noticed that many students struggle with many subjects. These are often also the most crucial for their progress, as many future courses build on them. If you're a Bachelor's student facing the same challenge, you've come to the right place. We'll review the material together and work towards your exams, so you can confidently take them.

From a 'birds-eye view', many of these courses clearly have specific types of assignments that you must be able to pass your exam. We pick out these kinds of assignments and we will train you together in order to master them. In addition, we will counteract your weaknesses by going through assignments and theory about it.

To give you a clear idea of which courses I've taken and how I can help you, I've included a list of my completed university courses below (all with a grade of 7 or higher). Note that I studied in Utrecht myself, so your courses may be titled differently.

I believe anyone can learn math. And with an average rating of 8.5 for my exam training at, among others, lyceo, I have experienced a lot of others doing the same.

We usually start with some (simple) exercises around the subject to gauge your understanding. This way I can construct a tailor-made approach that guarantees you will see the light. There are, of course, no real guarantees in education. But I can guarantee that after every hour of tutoring, you will be a little closer to the math genius that you really are.

In addition, in the past two years, I have gained a lot of experience in online education. I now have a drawing tablet, an iPad, and an external microphone (worth 300 euros) to be able to deliver the best experience online.

All levels are welcome, all ages. bring it on!

Mathematics, physics and arithmetic are subjects that many people have difficulty with. I believe that with good guidance, anyone can get a good grade for these subjects. During the lessons we look at what the stumbling points are, which I will then explain in the best possible way what is clearest for the student. Exact subjects can be made much easier by applying handy tricks. During the lessons I will convey this in the clearest possible way. Everyone thinks differently and I take that into account. Together we will see what works best for you!

Working with numbers can be a lot of fun and I would like to pass that on to others!

If you have trouble with business statistics or statistics, I can help you! First, we determine together what we can best focus on and how we shape the guidance

I give tips on what information is most important, how to best prepare for an exam, and how to best read exam questions. This method proves to be very effective!

I have been tutoring for over five years; both young students and adults who are following a master's program. I understand that everyone learns in a different way and I adapt my guidance to that. I am also well informed about the changing curriculum and exam requirements and the changing assessment methods. In online guidance I use apps to ensure the quality of the lessons.

I obtained my Master's degree in Finance & Investments at Erasmus University and I am happy to share my enthusiasm and knowledge of subjects such as statistics, economics, business economics, finance and accounting with everyone I supervise!

Hey! I'm a university student in Amsterdam and I give tutoring in Math, Statistics, Calculus, Operations Research, and even a bit of Programming. I’ve taken both IB and EHL-level Math, so I can help high school students too — not just uni-level stuff! Whether you're struggling with formulas, confused by probability, or just need someone to explain things in a simpler way, I’ve got you. My style is relaxed but focused, we’ll go at your pace, with examples that actually make sense.

I recently finished two masters in clinical and work/organisational psychology. I can tutor students in psychology/sociology/anthropology courses. I know most people struggle with statistics. I can increase your grade with 2-3 classes. If you also need help with a thesis, I can either help write it or supervise your journey.
