A language is the key to communication and in the interconnected, globalized world that we find ourselves in, a language can really broaden your horizons and extend your web. In addition, a new language also brings culture with it and a vast array of new traveling opportunities.
However, despite all of these advantages, learning a language can be challenging and demotivating, in particular when it is studied without being in touch with native speakers and the corresponding culture that a language brings with it.
The language tutoring provided will be personalized to the student's needs and will provide the cultural context that comes with a language, allowing for a more enjoyable and interactive language acquisition process.
If you are looking to improve your conversational skills or even written proficiency, This is the class for you.
Extra information
I am from Uruguay and speak the corresponding regional dialect. This is irrelevant for students who are in need of written tutoring however, for students willing to learn to speak Spanish as it is spoken in Spain, it might be a problem as there are certain differences. It is important to add that all dialects are valid in a professional and academic setting and that dialects have no hierarchy.

About Me
Dear future student,

My name is Bernardo and I am an international university student, currently finishing my Bachelor's degree in International Studies at Leiden University. Being born in Uruguay and having lived in Kenya, Germany, and the Netherlands I had the privilege to learn multiple languages and experience the corresponding cultures. Learning a language goes beyond learning the precise grammatical structure of it, learning a language means getting to know new cultural customs and traditions. The cultural aspect is what makes a new language attractive as it opens doors to an unexplored world.
Education
- IB diploma at the International School of Kenya.
- Currently in my third year of my Bachelor in International Studies at Leiden University.
- Completing a minor in Philosophy.
Experience / Qualifications
I speak Spanish fluently as it is my mother tongue, English C2 level and German C1 level. Experience with Kids from coaching to babysitting but eager to also work with adults.

Sandra
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.

Lauend
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.

Tom
If you want to improve your English grammar, vocabulary, fluency and pronunciation, you might want a tutor! I am available for you, your relative or your friend online and in Den Haag. I teach adults of all levels and ages, including seniors.

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!


⭐ English for Adults of All Levels and Ages

My classes are light-hearted, relaxed and always interactive. 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.


You can decide what you want to do in our class. Tell me in advance, and I'll spend time preparing interesting materials. For example:

• conversations with feedback and corrections (grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation)
• help with reading and writing
• understand and practise grammar
• learn idioms and natural language with context
• prepare you for visits abroad or conversations with foreigners
• creative activities like games

I'll teach you the differences between formal and informal phrases so that you use them in the right situations. For example, some Dutch people don't know this, but when you want to say "moeten", in English we usually don't say "must". That meaning of "must" is very formal and uncommon in modern spoken English. Instead, say "have to". In 1965, the Queen said "I must go to the lavatory". Everyone else in the 21st century said "I have to go to the toilet."


❗ Very importantly, I will also show you how to study on your own.

I know you won't be my student forever, so I want to prepare you for the future. If you hope to get good at English, it's not enough just to have a tutor once a week – the more time you put into learning English, the better and faster you'll get. I can show you how to easily make digital flashcards, write memorable notes, and use AI properly to teach you English. This way you can also keep learning after our course ends.
