Be taught in world, European or Dutch history-exam making and essay writing in English or Dutch!

History and politics have always been a passion of mine and I am very much willing to teach anyone who desires any tutoring. At times it can be very difficult and overwhelming if you need to make an exam or write an essay - I can be there to help in case you need guidance! The goal here would be to make you understand history better, organize patterns in your head and possibly make you love the subject! This should definitely help in either expanding your worldview, or enhancing your history grades. I am willing to teach history (or politics/maatschappijleer) in Dutch or English.

I have little preference in regard to eras or themes in history, but if you must know I especially enjoy political and military macro-history. The grand patterns throughout history fascinate me, with of course, attention to large events. No era or area is particularly strange to me, again, being able to process history is the goal here!

The grand goal is to get a basic, intermediate or advanced understanding in one of the subjects. I could, possibly, rehearse with you and ask you how fluent you are in the topics at hand. I am fully willing to adapt to the student his or her academic needs. In case you wish me to help you in structuring or writing a history essay, then this, too is no problem!

Extra information

If the student has a textbook him or herself and follows a specific course, then this would be more than ideal. If not, then this is not a problem if you can tolerate third-party sources.
If you do wish to be tutored by me then expect tons of maps being drawn and me going over the duration-time (just kidding), since, well I do really enjoy history.

About Me

Hello there! I am an International Relations student born in the Netherlands. Currently I live in Leiden and am very much willing to bike back and forth to your place in order to tutor you - I'd do this with great pleasure! In order to gain experience in teaching and in doing so talk about my passions, I am very much excited over the possibility to teach you.

I happen to know English fluently and I was born and raised with Dutch. History is by far my biggest passion and I study it with great love. Despite this, I know how tough those exams can be! I am fully willing to adapt to your style of learning and going with it because after all, a style of learning must be learnt but cannot be forced on someone. Because of that I will challenge you, but only in the form that suits with you.

I have studied law in Groningen for a year and am currently pursuing a Bachelor Degree at Leiden University.

Reviews (2)

Joost is a very patient and knowledgeable teacher, he has been helping me practicing my dutch! Always on time.
Joost is punctual, well mannered and knowledgeable. He is patient and has adapted the lesson to my son's specific need. He is doing a great job.
This class, specifically, is for people who are not native Dutch speakers and wish to sharpen their skills. The level you are on now does not matter, if anything, the less you know the more room there is for improvement! I have been tutoring and teaching Dutch for quite some time and have therefore gained a significant amount of experience. I am very much willing to take the time and make you grow step by step. Or, if by any chance, you need one-time help with for example an assignment then this is fine too!

Learn universal history, applying your knowledge to your environment.
Our history tells us where we come from and teaches us to understand where we are, while making us reflect on where we want to go. What our ancestors did, learned and created is now a fundamental part of who we are today.

I like to take create a comfortable environment for my students to have their mind at ease when they study with me. I believe it allows one to learn faster.

Guidance in (scientific) writing and communication.
Like no other, I know how difficult it can be to structure a research or project in a short time. You want to distinguish main issues from side issues and be in the final report to-the-point in communicating the results. From MBO level 2 I went on to a doctorate in astrophysics at the University of Amsterdam. During this path, I have written hundreds of reports, published 6 scientific articles and presented my findings hundreds of times both informally and formally. In addition, I have been a successful thesis supervisor of 3 bachelor students and 1 master's student. My most important contributions, especially (popular)-scientific, can be found on my LinkedIn page at the bottom. I would like to help you get the best out of yourself with the help of my knowledge and experience. However, I do not want to do this with a leadership mentality, but from an advisory mentality in which we can put together as equals a nice end product that we both support. I can offer concrete support for your research/project in: - Setup and planning - Doing literature study - Quality assurance - Presentation and structure/content - Popularizing the topics with catchy texts - Review with a critical look - Give layout and design input - And much more Do you think I can help you or do you want to know more? I would love to hear from you!

Francesc Xavier Torres
Private classes in History and Art History
Learning History is not complicated: the density of its syllabus can be facilitated through dynamic and conceptual teaching. Teaching an individualized methodology is essential to understand and accept it, and as such, it is present in my sessions. Whatever you are, reader, do not fall into discouragement or despair, since I will make you understand and love that subject that you now hate. In the last year of the History degree.

History, Geography and Art History for all levels
