SOME REVIEWS:
Chevaan:
Catherina is without a doubt THE best tutor we know. She is exceptionally committed and is always looking to inspire her students. She has consistently gone above and beyond the call of duty to help our son with his German. She provides excellent study material, engaging homework and follows up to ensure that her students have really grasped the subject matter.

Brian:
Catharina has been teaching our 11 year old daughter for the past few months and we are very impressed with her excellent progress in this short space of time.
Catharina has developed a very good rapport with our daughter and is patient and knowledgeable. Our daughter always looks forward to her next lesson and even hands in her homework on time! We would highly recommend Catharina to anyone who would like to learn a new language.

Afeisha:
Very professional, friendly and informative. I feel like Catharina will help me to reach where I need to. She doesn't just teach from the book, she teaches in a way that will allow you to blend in with ease. I am excited to learn more from her.

Egle:
Great tutor! Catharina adapts lessons to ones needs, gives very clear explanations and most importantly works on the pronunciation of the language. With every lesson she provides lesson material.

Teaching children is almost "an art" Not everyone is able to place him or herself in the mind of a child and that is just so important! I teach playfully and at the same time they learn without really realizing they are in a lesson! I do this with diverse lesson material such as pictures, video's, and we are also practicing songs together. Did I make you curious, come take a look and see if your child is liking my way of teaching! Greetings Carolina.

Welcome to my Maths, Physics and Science tutoring class, crafted especially for young minds preparing for IB MYP, IGCSE, and GCSE exams. As a passionate learner and dedicated tutor, I am committed to helping students not only comprehend but also develop a love for these captivating subjects. Here's what you can anticipate from my tutoring sessions

Personalised Learning: Every learner is unique, and I believe in tailoring my teaching methods to suit each student's individual needs. I don't judge; instead, I concentrate on understanding their strengths and areas for improvement to create a supportive and encouraging learning environment.

Concept Breakdown: I dissect complex topics into simpler, more manageable parts, making it easier for students to grasp challenging concepts and build a strong foundation in Physics and Science.

Student-Centred Approach: I enjoy teaching students and continually strive to ignite their curiosity and passion for learning. I aim to make each lesson engaging and enjoyable, helping students recognise the real-world applications of what they learn.

Shared Strategies: As a student who has successfully qualified for the Engineering Entrance exam test and is currently studying abroad on a fully funded scholarship, I bring my own learning strategies and study techniques to the table. These proven methods will help students achieve their academic goals.

Continuous Improvement: I am always learning and growing, just like my students. This continuous improvement mindset, which I actively promote, inspires and motivates students to strive for their best. It enables me to stay updated with the latest educational trends and techniques, ensuring that my students receive the best possible guidance.

Supportive Environment: I encourage students to ask questions, no matter how trivial they might seem. By creating a friendly and comfortable atmosphere, I ensure that students feel comfortable and open to express their doubts and curiosities, leading to a deeper understanding of the subjects.

I had a lot of difficulty learning and concentrating in school. That is why I decided to specialise in teaching kids from 4 to 16 years old, to help them learn with methods that are adapted to their needs and goals. This passion for my work inspires me to keep looking for new, innovative methods to teach.
My lessons are a mix of traditional and conversational, more entertaining, teaching methods.

Refresher training, consolidation and in-depth study, training for exams, certifications and competitions or personal projects.

Prior to the service, we will be able to...

This is the ultimate executive function and study skills coaching program that utilizes Artificial Intelligence as a personalized assistant.

Designed specifically for students with Special Educational Needs (SEN), including those with challenges in organization, focus, and information processing. This course provides real, measurable tools for academic autonomy.

We move beyond basic homework help. We treat the AI as a co-teacher to manage specific learning barriers:

The AI study buddy: Students learn to use generative AI (e.g., ChatGPT) ethically as a powerful organizational assistant. They master using it to summarize dense notes, break down complex science paragraphs into simplified concepts, or structure large projects into manageable steps.

Executive function tool integration: We focus on integrating AI-enabled planning apps and task management systems to assist with time management, scheduling, and project sequencing—skills essential for students with ADHD or organizational difficulties.

Personalized remediation: We leverage generative AI's power to create instant, personalized learning aids—for example, quickly generating visual study guides, mind maps, or specific practice quizzes tailored to the student's current school curriculum and unique learning style.

The Goal: To build confidence, independence, and accountability, allowing the student to navigate their schoolwork more effectively and rely less on parental or teaching support.

Why this program is premium: your investment covers the specialized pedagogical planning required for this complex integration:

It requires extensive preparation to tailor AI prompts and tools to the student's specific SEN profile (e.g., Dyslexia, Dyscalculia, ADHD).

It includes the creation of detailed progress reports and recommended toolkits for parents, ensuring strategies are consistent at home and school.
