Présentation

Hi there :)

I am Saphira and I moved from Austria to the Netherlands 1,5 years ago to do my Master’s in Astronomy at Leiden University. I started tutoring in high school, where I helped my classmates and younger students in various subjects. My main strengths have always been German and Mathematics. Since I began tutoring in high school and have continued ever since, I now have 7 years of tutoring experience with children, teenagers, and university students.

My teaching style is structured, patient, and goal-oriented: I break topics down into clear steps, explain the “why” behind methods, and help you practice until you feel confident. I’m especially good at helping students who feel stuck or think they’re “not good at languages/math”. We’ll build strong fundamentals and make steady progress.

I enjoy working with school students, and university students, whether your goal is better grades, exam preparation, improving conversation skills, or stronger writing.

Lessons are available online and in person if you’re nearby. Feel free to message me with your level, goals, and timeline, and I’ll suggest a clear plan for our first sessions!

Math Tutoring for School | Primary & High School | Homework + Exam Prep

66.46 C$ /h

As an MSc Astronomy student, I work with mathematics every day, and over the years I’ve learned how to explain it in a way that feels clear and intuitive, not overwhelming. What I would say I’m especially good at is helping students who feel like math is “not for them”: I break problems down into simpler steps, show the logic behind the method, and help you build confidence through practice.

I have been tutoring for about 7 years and have helped students improve their grades, prepare for exams, and finally understand topics they previously found confusing.

What I can help you with:
- Homework support and catching up on missed topics
- Exam preparation (practice questions + strategy)
- Building strong foundations: fractions, percentages, algebra, equations, functions, graphs, geometry
- Improving study habits and avoiding common mistakes

How lessons usually work:
- We start with your level, goals, and what your teacher expects
- I explain concepts step-by-step, then we practice together with similar exercises
- We’ll write short summaries and you'll get optional homework so you improve between sessions
- If you have a test coming up, we can do focused exam-style practice

Lessons are available online and in person if you’re nearby. Send me a message with the student’s school level/year and what you need help with, and I’ll suggest a plan for the first sessions.

Homework Help & Study Support – Math, English & German

42.15 C$ /h

I offer structured homework help and study support for students in primary school and secondary school. Many parents have busy schedules or feel that school material has changed a lot — I am happy to support your child so homework becomes less stressful.

During the sessions I help students:
• understand homework assignments
• review difficult topics from class
• prepare for upcoming tests
• develop good study habits and organization

I can help with:
• Mathematics
• English
• German (native speaker)
• general homework support

I have experience tutoring students from international schools and Austrian & German schools, and I adapt the sessions to each student’s needs.

My goal is not only to finish the homework together but also to help students gain confidence and learn how to study independently.

Joana

Hi! My name is Joana and I am originally from Luxembourg. Growing up in Luxembourg allowed me to be fluent in our three national languages: Luxembourgish, French and German (Native Proficiency).
After graduating from high school with a specialisation in modern languages and humanities, I moved to the United Kingdom to study Journalism. Living in London for over three years allowed me to perfect my written and spoken English. Since I've been 16, I have been giving private tutoring lessons both to primary and secondary school students.

I currently teach the following subjects:
•German
•French
•English

Sandi

Hi, I am Sandra, I speak German as a r language. I was born in Germany and I studied as a German teacher. I have learned several high-level speeches (French, English, Hungarian, Spanish) I can organize your tailor-made lessons, for example for an exam or for work.

Lina

I specialize in tutoring English and German grammar as well as pronunciation. I keep track of a level of progress and make sure my students get their personalized material as well as the support they need from me. I assign homework if needed / requested and will make sure my students get a fitting program to increase their language level as efficiently as possible. I am a very talkative and open-minded person and enjoy tutoring, challenging and guiding people along their journey.

Klara

Languages are not only an awesome skill to have, but they also act as a doorway into life and success. Speaking several languages enables you to connect with people worldwide. From my own experience as a trilingual, languages have helped me discover cultures and give me the feeling of truly belonging to a community even when I am far from home. Languages give you the courage to plant your roots in new soil no matter where you go.
If you want to start learning a new language, if you need motivation to continue learning a language, or if you need help with homework or other assignments in a language other than your mother tongue then I would be more than happy to guide you in your journey.
