Would you like to speak Dutch more fluent and with more confidence?

Maybe I can help you!
I teach in a flexible way and there is always a possibility to bring your own ideas. But first of all, we'll have an intake, so we can talk about your goals, expectations, way of learning and the methods/ books we can use.

We will work together to put your Dutch to a higher level. I will also give you homework which can contain several skills like watching Dutch tv, speaking with the neighbors, reading an article you're interested in and so on. Above all, I hope to make the lessons interesting, fun and informative.

Tot ziens!

My name is Marija and I've recently moved from Germany where I have been an English teacher in a private language school and Volkshochschule, and a private tutor.
I am a passionate linguist who lives the languages. I teach all levels and prepare kids and young adults for exams and help them expand their knowledge. Languages are the most beautiful thing in the world and I always try to make language closer to the student, no need for pressure and stress, everything can be learned with little bit of patience and will :) I work with individuals and groups.

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.

If your child can use some extra support with, for example, counting, (reading) reading or writing, I would like to offer my help.

I have been giving tutoring to children of different ages for a few years now. I also have a lot of experience as a babysitter and as an au pair, so I'm used to working with children and helping them get ahead and helping them see how much they can actually do!

I'll help you learn English. We'll practice written and spoken English and work on grammar. I'll help you start learning the language from scratch. I'll also help you with the curriculum and homework for school-age children.

I can also help you prepare for both state exams (the Unified State Exam) and international exams, such as IELTS, TOEFL, and SAT (I've experienced passing each of these exams).
Since the written portion of the exams is so important, we'll expand our vocabulary and learn to logically argue your case.

We'll focus on conversational English, discussing various topics, which will also help expand your vocabulary, and watching videos in English and discussing them. I'll help you learn English.

To live and reside in the Netherlands a certain level of Dutch is not only handy but also necessary if you want to have a job. As part of the process to become a Dutch national, you need a basic level of Dutch, being A1 to B2.

I am a certified Dutch teacher with 8 years of teaching experience. Besides teaching Dutch to Dutch high -school students in the years 1- 4 mavo/ havo/ vwo, I also have extensive experience teaching Dutch to expats/ foreigners.
I am therefore familiar with the “inburgeringsexamen” and the NT2 curriculum (Dutch for foreigners) for those who want to reside in the Netherlands.

I am very knowledgeable and teach with passion, creativity and enthousiasm. I love the Dutch language and teaching it to others, as well as interacting with all types of cultures and age ranges.

💬 I'm Tom, and I've been teaching English since 2013. Originally I'm from the south of England, and I've been happily living in the Hague since 2021. Before this I lived in Taiwan and mainland China. I speak a bunch of languages besides English, like Mandarin, Finnish, some French, and a little Japanese – and now of course I'm learning Dutch!

❗ 45-minute lessons are via Zoom only.

I’ve helped more than 100 students get 6 and above. Are you taking the IELTS test for university? Do you need IELTS for a job application? I will happily help you. I am a total IELTS nerd — I have taken the test myself and I have created my own expert study guidebooks, which I am happy to share with you. I can answer any of your questions about IELTS and help you get the score you need. Let's go! 💪

⭐Prepare for the IELTS test with an experienced, friendly and professional native English teacher

TEACHING STYLE:

Although I take the IELTS test seriously, and I want you to as well, my classes are also light-hearted and warm. People learn best when they’re enjoying themselves and feeling deeply interested, and that is my promise to you. I will correct your mistakes, but I will never shame or embarrass you for making them. My class is a place where people come to feel good and grow confidence.

My classes are focused completely on test skills. You will learn how to answer questions much faster with me.

👂 LISTENING: The IELTS listening test is full of DISTRACTIONS. It is designed to make you not sure about the answer. Usually, there is not just one simple answer, but there are two or three possible answers, and only one is completely correct. I will teach you to pay attention to the correct keywords and reject the distractions. SPELLING is also very important for this test. English spelling is complicated, but there are RULES and patterns that I will teach you.

📚 READING: I will teach you how to increase your reading SPEED, quickly find key information and reject distractions. You will learn how to answer all question types including multiple choice, matching information, true/false/not given, filling in blanks, and labelling diagrams.

🖊️ WRITING: You will learn about all the Task 1 question types including graphs, charts, maps and diagrams, plus all the Task 2 essay types. My COMPLETE WRITING GUIDE will give you all of the sentence patterns and structures you need to answer any question type. Even if you don't normally write well, you will be PREPARED for the test. I will also teach you to write QUICKLY, as it is essential to finish both tasks and reach the minimum number of words within one hour.

👄 SPEAKING: I will help you answer FLUENTLY and CLEARLY without hesitation in Part 1, make short speeches in Part 2, and give long and confident answers to all types of difficult questions in Part 3. I will help you with improve your fluency, pronunciation and confidence.

I have a double master's degree in Linguistics and English, and my research focus was how to teach English pronunciation and speaking skills. I won't let you down. 🫡

❗ 45-minute lessons are via Zoom only.

I explain the grammar by giving you the rules and examples from everyday life and from pop music.
We will make exercises from your own workbook to see if you understand it and you can learn from mistakes so that you don't make them again on your test.
We will also practice reading texts from old exams because that will be your final exam later on.
Usually the grades of my tutors go up quickly.
I come to the student's home to give tutoring at the table in the afternoon.

English is a language which is growing in In importance and is widely accepted as a key skill to have. As well as this, learning a new language can be one of the most fun activities you can do and I would be really happy to help you with this!
My name is Louis, I am a 23 years old and am a native English speaker. Before The Netherlands, I have lived in the UK for 16+ years; all of my school education has been in the English taught British school system. This has helped clients in particular, with children in a British school here.

I have designed my classes with the aim of building the basic skills required in holding conversations, succeeding in an English speaking environment but also teaching students who have an advanced level but require extra help (often with the technical side, for example the rules surrounding tenses and other grammatical points).

The classes are best performed on a one to one basis but I have taught small group sessions (less than 5) before.
I hope for my lessons to be fun, informative and practical.

ENGLISH: I have been teaching Turkish and Dutch to local and international adults and their children living in the Netherlands since 2020.
My main motivation for teaching my mother language is to contribute to Turkish children’s bilingual achievement and help Dutch-Turkish people close the cultural gap in their families.
My lessons are based on the needs of the individuals such as communication in daily life, reading business or project management documents and enjoying their time while exploring Turkish culture and cuisine.
*******************************
NEDERLANDS: Sinds 2020 geef ik Turkse en Nederlandse lessen aan lokale en internationale volwassenen en hun kinderen die in Nederland wonen.
Mijn belangrijkste motivatie om mijn moedertaal te onderwijzen, is om bij te dragen aan de tweetalige prestaties van Turkse kinderen en om Nederlands-Turkse mensen te helpen de culturele kloof in hun gezin te dichten.
Mijn lessen zijn gebaseerd op de behoeften van de individuen, zoals communicatie in het dagelijks leven, het lezen van zakelijke of projectmanagementdocumenten en genieten van hun tijd tijdens het verkennen van de Turkse cultuur en keuken.
*******************************
TÜRKÇE: 2020 yılından beri Hollanda'da yaşayan Türklere, yabancılara ve onların çocuklarına Türkçe ve Hollandaca öğretiyorum.
Anadilimi öğretmekteki temel motivasyonum, Türk çocuklarının iki dilde iletişimine katkıda bulunmak ve Hollandalı-Türk aile bireyleri arasındaki kültürel uçurumu kapatmalarına yardımcı olmaktır.
Derslerim, günlük yaşamda iletişim, iş veya proje yönetimi belgelerini okumak ve Türk kültürü ile mutfağını keşfederek keyifli vakit geçirmek gibi bireylerin ihtiyaçlarına yöneliktir.

Hello there!

Do you need help with IB or IGCSE Economics, English or Politics? Are teachers just not enough? Well then, let me help you!

My name is Lauend, a student pursuing a BSc in Political Science. I am an experienced tutor specializing in IB and IGCSE Economics, English, and Politics, with a strong academic background and a student-centred teaching approach.

Having completed both IGCSE and the International Baccalaureate, I understand these curricula from the inside—not just in terms of content, but in how examiners think, how mark schemes are structured, and where students commonly lose marks. This allows me to teach strategically, with a clear focus on exam performance, conceptual understanding, and long-term academic confidence.

I already have hands-on tutoring experience with students at different ability levels, ranging from those aiming to consolidate core knowledge to high-achievers targeting top grades. Each student receives a curated learning plan, adapted to their strengths, weaknesses, pace, and academic goals. I have taught and supported IGCSE and IB DP students at schools such as the Amsterdam International Community School and the Rotterdam International Secondary School.

Through my holistic, tailor-made tutoring for each student, I can help you not only achieve higher marks in IB and IGCSE, but also (and more importantly) understand and apply these subjects in the real world, a useful skill that will become increasingly valuable throughout life.

Whether you’re aiming to boost your grades, sharpen your essays, or finally feel confident walking into exams, I’m here to help make the process clearer, calmer, and more effective.
