Over

I believe that mastering foundational concepts is essential before tackling advanced topics. My teaching approach emphasizes getting the basics right, ensuring a solid groundwork for deeper learning. I am approachable but maintain a structured environment that discourages slacking. Decisive and adaptable, I tailor the course load to match each student's learning pace. To make complex ideas more accessible, I use analogies and abstraction, breaking down difficult concepts into intuitive, understandable components.

Advanced math (from algebra, precalculus upto analysis 1): From a computer science undergrad with previous experience tutoring A level Math

55.69 $ /h

Taught by Niketha, a Computer Science undergraduate from the University of Florida (Presidential honor roll, Summa cum laude) - this class offers comprehensive instruction in mathematics. I am interested in distilling difficult concepts through abstraction and my teaching methodology is to focus on strengthening skills in foundational topics through conceptual understanding and applied problem solving (through exercises).

Math instruction ranges from algebra and precalculus to advanced topics like collegiate level real analysis (Analysis 1 & 2). I have previously tutored A level mathematics students (facilitated grade jump from C to A).

I completed the IB DP with a consistent 7/ high 6 in Higher Level History, and this has always been one of my favorite subjects. I am very good at this subject and have somewhat of a passion for it. I have a very good grasp of what is expected from the IB students as pertains to this subject, and I know the ins and outs of the criteria and the weird and wonderful little ways in which the IB expects the students to perform. I am able to help with any course work, homework, assignments, or assessments. As pertains to the DP students, I also did my EE on a History topic so I can assist there if need be. I am also a tutor in English and as comprehensive writing and legibility is a large part of what is expected from IB History students, I can offer particular insight into how to best write and get arguments across.

This private class offers an exploration into rich and complex tapestry that is Chinese culture. Based on your interest, you'll learn more about Chinese history, philosophy, traditional and modern Chinese society, literature, religion, etc.

With China's importance on the international stage growing incessantly, I believe it's very useful to understand the Chinese way of thinking, to develop awareness of cultural sensitivities and to gain some insight in the history that structures China's perspective on the world.

Originally structured as a lecture-based course, the content can also be restructured into a more interactive learning design. Whether you're interested in ancient classical philosophy, dynastic history, modern Chinese society and popculture or the economic development of China, this course has something to offer.

Classes with me is specific to each's needs.
As per the need or requirements of the student, the classes will be designed. For Example: the length of each class, the kind of sessions.

Session and the course length can be decided as per the need of the student and mutual consent

Besides the conventional theme of a language class I offer out of the box 🎁 learning experience to each student which makes learning more positive and last longer for the betterment of the receiver.

I teach and understand the concern of each student before the beginning of any session and plan a blueprint for my students individually as every case is unique. I propose to discuss this before we begin and make the necessary changes of required. I like to personalize the learning sessions and length according to the student.

Moving to a new country can be hard (having lived in Spain, I know the feeling). Let me support you in learning Dutch as well as finding your way to integrate in the Netherlands. As a cultural anthropologist, I am trained to build bridges between cultures, and I approach differences with curiosity. We will design a learning pathway fully tailored to your needs. I like to use your favorite hobbies as a guideline for the classes: let's make music or play games while your learn Dutch!

Speak with Precision, Understand with Depth: The Linguist’s Approach to Italian

Why settle for simply learning Italian when you can learn it with the insight of a linguistic expert? My unique lessons combine the practical goal of achieving native-level fluency with the intellectual depth of linguistic theory.

As both an Italian language and Linguistics specialist, I don't just teach you what to say, I teach you the underlying principles of why it is said that way. This accelerated approach allows you to master complex grammar and vocabulary faster and retain it longer, building a truly flexible and powerful command of the language.

You will master: Elegant Italian communication; sophisticated analysis of texts and discourse; and the ability to leverage linguistic principles to make language learning efficient, enjoyable, and profound.

Hi,

Ik heb ruime ervaring met het geven van bijles en het begeleiden van leerlingen bij verschillende organisaties. In de afgelopen jaren heb ik gewerkt met leerlingen van uiteenlopende niveaus, waarbij ik heb gemerkt dat ik veel energie haal uit het uitleggen van lesstof en het vergroten van zelfvertrouwen bij leerlingen.

Mijn interesse en passie liggen vooral bij de vakken geschiedenis, aardrijkskunde en maatschappijleer/burgerschap. Ik vind het belangrijk om deze vakken niet alleen inhoudelijk duidelijk uit te leggen, maar ook te laten zien hoe ze aansluiten bij de actualiteit en de belevingswereld van leerlingen. Daarbij besteed ik veel aandacht aan structuur, overzicht en het aanleren van effectieve leerstrategieën.

Op dit moment volg ik de master Bestuurskunde aan de Universiteit Leiden. Deze opleiding sluit goed aan bij mijn interesse in politiek, bestuur en maatschappelijke vraagstukken en versterkt mijn vakinhoudelijke kennis, die ik ook inzet tijdens mijn bijlessen.

Mijn manier van begeleiden is rustig, geduldig en persoonlijk. Ik neem de tijd om te achterhalen waar een leerling tegenaan loopt en pas mijn uitleg daarop aan. Het doel is niet alleen betere resultaten, maar ook meer zelfvertrouwen en motivatie.
