About Me

Hi, my name is Nika and I studied Physics for my Master and then moved to the Netherlands to do a PhD in Astrophysics. Later, I moved to the US to work at the University, then to Vienna, and now I am back in the Netherlands and therefore, able to only tutor online!

During my studies I have tutored over 50 students (majority regular throughout their school years) in Physics and Mathematics. I tutor in English or Croatian, starting from age of 5.

During my PhD and after it, I have also taught Astrophysics courses at two Universities, mentored students, and held tutoring for both students and professionals wanting to learn more.

I truly enjoy tutoring and interacting with students. Based on the feedback, I would say students enjoy it to!
Physics is fun, and my goal is for you to see it! :))

Looking forward to meeting you soon!

I specialize in tutoring English and Math for school. My goal is to keep students challenged and prepared. I assign homework after every lesson and provide periodic progress reports.

If you are a student in need of someone to help you be prepared for exams, look no further!

Mathematics is the language in which everything is explained from everyday activities to the complexity of the universe. However, one may need some help and practice to gain a deeper understanding or just to pass an upcoming examination be it to meet a requirement or for achieving good grades.

My name is Balazs Kovacs and I am currently studying physics at the University of Groningen. Because I have always loved teaching I organized a system in which tutors and students could be paired up. Needless to say that I also participated in it as a tutor myself besides successfully preparing students for school-leaving exams and ordinary exams. That's why I am offering tutoring in mathematics for those who want to study more in-depth or find math hard to pass.

Are you a high school or high school student and have difficulty understanding and solving math or physics problems? Then I am someone who would like to help you with that. I often see that in standard classroom teaching is succinctly taught. As a result, the student misses out on the whole picture, making the teaching material and the problems vague and unclear. My goal is to take the time for each student to complete the whole picture and guide them through complex problems, so that the student can not only take tests and exams with ease, but also enjoy learning the material.

Hi! Im an Astronomy student here in the Netherlands and I believe I could be able to help out anyone that might need tutoring for their kids, both in high school and in primary school. I am particularly good at both maths and physics, along with natural science, so if that is something your kids might need help with, I'm the perfect person.

In 2023, I successfully completed the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme at the same time as the Czech Baccalaureate exam at my high school. I enjoy mathematics, I had a special tutorial programme in it and as part of my extra-curricular studies I simultaneously studied mathematical analysis at the Faculty of Mathematics and Physics at Charles University in Prague. From September 2023, I am studying mathematics in English at the University of Groningen. I have 5+ years of experience in tutoring mathematics.
Despite my interest in mathematics, I know that not everyone enjoys numbers, equations, functions or derivatives and integrals and I am ready to teach you not only these areas to the best of my ability.
I try to design my tutoring sessions in a friendly atmosphere, because that is where learning is best!

As a BSc in Theoretical Physics and having completed the Physics, Mathematics and Chemistry A-Levels, I can provide tutoring to students undergoing a undergraduate-level study of Physics or a Secondary education in Physics, Mathematics and Chemistry.

My aim is to ensure students' understanding and training the applicability of their understanding such that they are able to succeed in their studies and enjoy them.

I have personally tutored Bachelor students and Middle school students. I have also worked as a Teaching Assistant giving tutorials in Classical Mechanics, Special Relativity and Linear Algebra at the University of Groningen.

Hello, I am a mathematics masters student specializing in algebra, geometry and number theory. I have graduated from the university of Groningen with a bachelor in mathematics. As such, I've spent a great deal of time studying mathematics at a higher level and have become acquainted with a broad range of mathematical disciplines such as algebra, geometry, analysis, calculus, probability, optimization and more, this of-course includes any high school mathematics. During my studies I working as a teaching assistant whenever possible so I have some experience teaching.

In mathematics there are often many ways to come to the same conclusion and it varies from person to person what they consider easiest to understand. As such I try to get to know the student first and figure out how they may learn best. Personally, I rely a lot on intuition and deep understanding of concepts and so i try to convey to students the most essential and fundamental ideas before moving on, as well as, giving them interpretations of what is happening so that they may becomes easier to imagine and more tangible. In solving any problem, I think it is important to first sit back and understand what is going on before embarking on any calculation or proofs.

In a typical class I would first survey what the student already knows and discuss the concepts with them making sure they understand them very well then we would move on to discussing examples and non-examples (this would take most of the class). Finally we would solve problems together discussing them as we go along. This of course can vary from student to student, their level and time available.

You always see people saying that maths can be a boring and hard subject, but that couldn’t be further from the truth! I can help with making things as basic as algebra 101 to integrals seem interesting all while helping your child understand them through and true. I studied mathematics at a STEM-specific academic high school, getting the highest possible grade for the subject in the Romanian Baccalaureate.

***ENGLISH BELOW***
Hello! My name is Sanne (25) and I have a Master's degree in Biochemistry. Starting in September, I will begin obtaining my first-degree teaching qualification in Biology. Besides my passion for laboratory research, I enjoy supporting students with the subject matter and sharing my enthusiasm for the subject. I have already helped more than 20 students with biology, chemistry, and mathematics. I offer tutoring in mathematics (Mathematics A, B, and C).

During the tutoring sessions, we actively work together on assignments, and I help you gain insight into the underlying concepts so that you can eventually tackle problems independently. Making mistakes is, of course, allowed; that is often where you learn the most. Additionally, it is important that you practice independently between lessons. For the lessons, you will need your own (sometimes graphing) calculator.

I offer support with:
- Clearing backlogs
- Specific chapters or topics that are difficult
- Preparation for school exams and central exams (vmbo, havo and vwo)
- VAVO, state examination, and CCVX tracks

Tutoring in pairs or small groups (for example, with classmates) is possible at a lower rate per person. Feel free to contact us for more information!

Home tutoring is available. For this, I charge a travel allowance of €1 per kilometer per session (excluding Apprentus surcharges). Please contact me before booking to discuss the options and additional costs.
