Reviews (11)

Very patient teacher. Uses technology well and works very structured. Highly recommended
I am able to understand all the topics that i was struggling with. He is a very well structured teacher and explains very good. With different examples and different perspectives.
I need to re-study 4 years of high school maths in only 5 months. Mahmood agreed to help me with this difficult task and thanks to his professional way of teaching I believe I can make this happen. He explains topics in detail and yet quickly enough to spare time for other topics. If you are unsure he points you to the right direction. Most important thing for me was that he made me realize that I first need to master concept #1 in order to be able to later master concept #5 and so on. You can see that he has a lot of teaching experience, he tries to understand the way YOU think and based on that he serves you clear explanation for topics you struggle to understand. I definitely recommend him as your next teacher!
Very thoughtful in his approach in teaching Dutch. He seems interested in what he is doing.
I took some classes of Physics of University level from Mahmood. The problem at my University was that the teachers assume that you know everything from basics and they start teaching immediately from high level. The thing I really liked about Mahmood's classes is that he teach every high level topic by firstly explaining all the basic concepts related to them which made it very easy to understand. Also he explained each and every topic into very much detail. Therefore I can really recommend Mahmood for beginning as well as higher level classes.

Hello! I’m Mahmood and I currently live in Gouda (South-Holland). I came to The Netherlands some time ago.

This way I can efficiently give you the help that you need. ii) Open communication I have an open way of teaching in which I encourage students to keep telling me what their difficulties are or where they would like to improve.

Spanish and English classes, evenings and weekends
For all those language enthusiasts like me, I offer private classes during the evenings and weekends. If you wish to learn some Spanish for work, school or just because it's a beautiful language why not try it! I can also teach English or Russian. As this is something I do extra, I would prefer to teach beginner or intermediate levels, however, if necessary I can do advanced. It all depends on the progress you make! I grew up and studied in Ireland and have thought English as a second language in Spain for about a year. I am currently working in an international firm and use all the languages if not on a daily, definitely on a weekly basis.

I invite motivated students to my Russian and English classes who know exactly what they want to learn the language for. Classes are held in an interactive format, so that attention is paid to all four types of communication skills: listening, speaking, reading and writing. In the case of special wishes of the student, preference is given to one aspect, for example, reading or speaking. At the beginning of each lesson, we set a goal, and at the end we sum up the results. I give my students feedback so that they could evaluate their progress.
