About Me

Hi! My name is Elyse, and I recently graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Economics and Business Economics at the University of Amsterdam.

What makes me different from other tutors is how I have very recently graduated sixth form, and university, allowing me to be up to date with teaching methods and syllabi.

My ideal students are those who are motivated but are not performing the way they expected. I have personal experience with improving my grades by a significant percentage.

I am also very knowledgable of the UK university application process, UCAS and personal statement writing.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me!

Reviews (1)

She prepared all the materials in advance and was very professional, she always comes on time and never missed any lessons. She is very punctual and gave very good and clear explanations and made sure along the way I could apply what I have learned. Within 5 lessons with her, I understood all the topics we had to cover and I feel more than ready for my test. Elyse has a lot of patients to explain again until I understand what I am learning and she is very motivating. I highly recommend this tutor and I will continue to study with her in the future. Thank you, Elyse

Sandra
American Native English Teacher - English Lessons for Children and Teenagers
Hello parents! My name is Sandra. I am a native English speaker from New York State. I have a USA teaching license and a Bachelor's Degree in Childhood Inclusive Education (Grades K-6 and Students with Disabilities) from the State University of New York at Fredonia. My experiences include teaching at primary international schools in Belgrade, Serbia for 2 years and 3 years at international schools in The Hague, Netherlands. I have worked at two IB primary schools. Alongside teaching at international schools, I have 8 years of experience teaching English. I also have experience teaching grade 1 and 3 in elementary schools in New York State. I have taught children from 2-17 years old and adults. My students range in levels from beginners who are new to learning English, to fluent English speakers that need support or would like to further excel or maintain their fluency. Based on my experiences, I have learned to adjust my teaching style based on different students' needs, cultures, socioeconomic backgrounds, and learning abilities. Lessons are provided to children and teenagers. Lessons are customized to the learning needs of your child. Whether that be learning English for the first time or practicing improvement of speaking, reading, comprehension, pronunciation, listening, writing, grammar, etc. Lessons can be aimed towards learning a topic such as food, animals, sports, emotions, and more. For children who are fluent English speakers, tutoring can be given to further excel in particular areas. Subjects that interest the student such as science, history or world topics can be incorporated into the lesson to broaden their knowledge. Support can also be provided in learning organizational skills, research, and mini projects for older children. I am available to help with studying, homework, or school projects. For online learning, I use a variety of platforms, websites, educational games, and e-books to reach the learning goals of my students. Additional homework can be provided if requested. Depending on the students age, lesson duration is adjusted. If you are looking for lessons for siblings, please reach out to me to discuss the best schedule for your children. My aim is to create a positive and enjoyable learning environment for all my students. I hope you can join my English lessons! Please reach out to me if you have any questions. I can provide my resume or reference letters if requested. Looking forward to hearing from you.

English Tutoring with Holistic Approach for All Levels
English has become the Lingua Franca of our times. It's a valuable skill to possess, beneficial for everyone. It comes handy in the ever-developing world that we live in and opens doors to many places, also in the mind. Additionally, bilingualism enhances the cognitive skills. Whether you'd like to improve your speaking skills and break the language barrier or you wish to prepare better for an English exam, I come to an aid. I'm a 3-year Linguistic student, I've achieved the C1+ levels in English, on the CEFR scale. I have 2 years of experience living in London, where I acquired RP (received pronunciation) and 3 years of experience in the International Academia (Amsterdam). My linguistic background gives me the capacity to explain the sounds and various processes of the language, from a perspective many natives do not know. In teaching, I practice the holistic approach. It is my belief that language is for people of every age and education, but I'm aware that everyone deserves a personal approach. That's why I offer the first meeting unpaid, so we can get acquainted and discuss the expectations of both sides. In classes, I will try to raise your confidence and knowledge in English, on 4 levels of proficiency: Speaking, Listening, Reading and Writing. I will focus on your strengths and teach you how to use those to your advantage in learning. We will elicit your potential and together achieve the goals you set for yourself.

If you, -have an interest in learning English -require a passable level of English in order to attend a college or to get a job -want to improve your competency with the English language then this class is ideal for your needs. I can cater to teaching any level of English from beginner to advanced. Teaching has always been a passion for me and I'm sure you will see results if you put the work in. I am a native English speaker from Ireland now studying Business in the Netherlands. I am a fully qualified to teach English as a foreign language. I believe that a supportive, safe environment is ideal for learning a language. I teach through a combination of spoken and written work. In my class I like to focus on usable effective spoken skills over written competency but this balance can be adjusted for any student. All classes will be taught through English

Primary school language, especially children aged 6, 7 and 8.
I immerse myself in the material that a student has difficulty with, in this case a language and/or a math problem. It is true that I am currently guiding a girl from secondary education with beginners French and German. But the majority of my tutoring children come from groups 6, 7 and 8 of primary school.

From Sorbonne to Amsterdam! English Immersion & Conversation Course: Culture, News, Politics
Bonjour, I'm of mixed French and Polish origins and I've been living in Paris for many years. I hold a PhD degree in French Literature from Sorbonne University and I've been teaching French and English since 2013. During my class, you will learn how to communicate effectively - and in order to speak, you'll need to practice! I have a passion for French culture, literature, music, film and theatre, and I believe that it's through culture and experiencing the language directly in everyday life that you really immerse yourself in a language. I train also for exams and DELF/DALF. Apart from this, I work as a tour guide specialised in French medieval architecture and a week-end trip to Paris (sightseeing included!) can be planned during the course to immerse in French language, cinema, food and beautiful Parisian museums. Practicing French in French boulangeries, restaurants and bookshops in Amsterdam can be planned as well. If you're interested in more than practicing speaking and pronunciation skills, we can alternate the grammar/writing classes (held at home) and conversation classes (held anywhere!). We'll use news, social media, Netflix and much more. À bientôt !

Presentation Skills - Speaking, Interview, and Presentation Preparation
Do you have to give a presentation in English but are struggling with anxiety on how to deliver something exciting? Many people benefit from confidence boosters when giving a presentation, be it for work, school, or even an interview. My lessons focus on building confident delivery and coherent presentations, delivering and responding to interview questions, and general public speaking for work or school. I have a PhD from Leiden University in The Netherlands, and over the course of my years there I gave presentations all over the world on my research to crowds ranging from 20 to 1000 people. I have also worked in a theatre setting as a producer for almost 10 years, and these two worlds combined have allowed to come up with a formula to help you shake off any nerves and get excited about standing up in front of an engaged audience.

Interactive tutoring for English or English as a second language
Speak and write English in a pleasant and convenient language. Do you want English tutoring as a second language, or as a student? Then I can really help you with that. In this lesson you will learn communication skills to learn the English language in a fun, fast and innovative way. As an English teacher I teach different ages and levels. You will use fun tools or games to learn specific topics. Do you want to know more about Grammar or Literature? As a learning coach, I help you learn the English language by helping you step by step.

Joseph
Learn how to get into a highly selective university from a Cambridge Graduata
If you're looking to apply to a prestigious university with a very rigorous selection process, I can help coach you for your interviews and provide feedback for the work you'll be presenting to them. I intend my coaching to leave you feeling confident that you'll be able to do your best when you have to prove yourself to the university interviewers! I'm Joseph, and I graduated from the University of Cambridge in 2019. I'm the first member of my family to ever go to that prestigious university, and I come from rural France, where the number of students at my schools who went to Oxbridge could be counted on the fingers of one hand. My help is therefore catered both to those who've aimed to go to such universities for years, and those who don't know where to start to make it possible!

Spanish classes. Basic, intermediate and advanced levels. Conversation and grammar, all ages
I specialize in helping students maintain a fluent conversation in Spanish using class time to improve pronunciation and fluency. At the same time, the student is provided with a practical guide where grammar will be explained and they will be able to do infinite practical exercises that help them improve their understanding and analysis of text. We also work with images, sounds and videos so that the student can recognize, interpret for themselves and improve their hearing ability. At the basic and intermediate levels I use a system where the student can listen, copy and repeat information similar to the beginning of learning their native language. I assign homework after each lesson and report student progress month by month.

English, test prep, personal requests, ESL (experienced teacher)
I will make a personalized study plan for your goals, big or small, typical or unusual. I teach general English, and prepare students for TOEFL, IELTS, SAT, AP and other exams. However, I also love working with very specific requests, like preparing a person for a job on international trains, explaining the US university culture, understanding a book or learning to speak without an accent. At my lessons, we play games, watch videos, chat, etc. I want to use things that you enjoy. At 14, I left Russia to study in New York. Now I use English in professional academia in Amsterdam. I have taught teens and adults of all levels at an ESL school; now I give private/group online lessons.
