Over

I started teaching English one-on-one as a volunteer at an American university where foreign students were taking ESL classes. It was very fulfilling to see the students improve and become more confident. I also personally gained from every student because they were from many different countries and had different experiences. I then decided to get certificates in CELTA and Teaching Business English in order improve my own skills in teaching. I’ve studied other languages, so I know how patient I have to be in communicating with you. The lessons will be in English because my French is now only at the intermediate level and my Spanish is now only at the pre-intermediate level, my Dutch is at the Beginner level and I’ve forgotten my Japanese, Hungarian and German.

Opleiding

Bachelor of Science in Business Administration and Accountancy, and Master of Business Administration with a major in Computer Applications and Information Systems

Leservaring

My teaching certificates are CELTA, TEFLA and Teaching Business English. However, my main work experience was as an IT Business Analyst.

A qualified language coach with 25 years of experience offers intensive Dutch lessons in a small class or online.

I give many Dutch NT2 lessons to expats and in preparation for an integration exam.
Specialized in guiding for the State Exam I and II. Special exam coach.

In January 2025 I will also start with groups again. We have a great classroom in the center of Rotterdam, near metro station Beurs, lessons with small homogeneous groups (little difference in level).

We mainly go for quality and not just running a lesson. I am really involved in the progress of the student. In addition to teaching, I want to do everything to really motivate students to take the next step. That is my strength!

You can also choose the online lesson package with Whereby, Teams or Zoom in a comfortable way. Online classes are one-on-one or maximum one-on-two, for better results.

My English is fluent, as well as Portuguese and Spanish. I understand the difficulties of overcoming barriers for Latin languages and for expats in general, as I have also been an expat.

Online lessons last 75 minutes once a week for 10 weeks to reach a higher level.

This is the normal speed. Including exam training (A-2 or Staatsexamen) and exam at the end.

Intensive training ? That can also be done in five to ten full days, I am used to giving these very intensive trainings to CEOs or managers who want it faster and more intensive ... all lessons within 3 or 4 weeks. Based on the European system A-1, A-2, B-1, B-2 and C-1

As soon as students want to further improve their knowledge of Dutch, I always advise and coach them to take the State Exam I or II, the only formal Certificate in this country, recognized by employers and universities.

I will try to switch to conversation after a few lessons, to put your knowledge into practice as soon as possible. Don't get too caught up in the grammar.

Teaching is my ultimate passion and even after 25 years it feels like the first time and students always feel inspired to overcome the obstacles.

I also teach you about Dutch social culture, which is intertwined in the course and is strongly related to the language.

Are you applying for a job, study, or grant which requires a professional level of English? Then it's important that your application be error free and clearly communicate your strengths and motivations.

Over the past five years I've helped dozens of colleagues, friends, and clients improve their job and study applications (CVs, cover letters, essays), prepare for interviews, and practice presentations. By working together to edit your documents, we'll identify common mistakes and opportunities for improvement. I can also help you customize your CV and cover letter to meet specific position requirements, which can greatly improve your chance of being selected or invited for an interview.

As a working professional (I'm an engineer), I have plenty of experience applying to and interviewing with various types of companies. I also have experience on the other side of the table, scanning CVs, reading cover letters, and interviewing applicants.

I look forward to working with you!

Would you like to improve your English or do you need an explanation about grammar? You've come to the right place. I did my master's degree in mechanical engineering in English and I am fluent in the English language. The teaching method depends on the student. If the student has received a teaching method from school, this teaching method will be used during the tutoring. If this is not the case, a teaching method that I have purchased will be used. During the lessons, attention is paid not only to spelling and vocabulary, but also pronunciation. The latter is missing in many courses and tutoring. I will help you improve your pronunciation!

Underachieve?
Getting low grades and not knowing why?
No motivation to study?

It is often difficult for parents to estimate whether the child needs tutoring. And if it is certain that the child needs tutoring, 9 out of 10 times it is too late (stay put, advice too low, etc..)

to prevent this, sign up NOW for homework guidance!
for both high school and elementary school students.

I can come to the tutoring student myself (at home) or via facetime, teams and video calling.

Additionally, I have been studying English since I was four and am currently studying for my bachelor's degree in English! I have certificates for all the languages I speak, and as I have, been learning multiple languages since a young age, I consider myself fit to help others understand them too! The structure of lessons would be customized to the wants and needs of my students, and therefore we would set goals together and work towards them!

Below are all my langauge certificates and grades!

The aim of this course is to increase fluency, confidence, use of language and pronunciation in order to improve your language skills.

I offer explanations of Grammatical topics, expansion of vocabulary and tips for pronunciation in order to improve the ability to be understood!

The best way to know a language is through exposition, therefore only English will be spoken in class.

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.

My name is Mohamed from Syria, and I hold a degree in Business Administration. My journey with the English language began with a deep passion for learning it. Through dedication and hard work, I mastered the language using Cambridge curricula and other studies, achieving an advanced academic level (C1). This accomplishment inspired me to turn my passion into a mission, becoming an English teacher to support students eager to learn.

For the past three years, I have been volunteering as an English teacher in a non-profit organization, teaching both beginner-level students starting from scratch and intermediate levels (B1-B2).

My Teaching Approach:
I believe that learning English should be enjoyable and easy to apply in everyday life. My teaching method focuses on:

- Simplifying Grammar: Presenting rules in a clear and straightforward manner.
- Improving Speaking Skills: Developing conversational fluency with an emphasis on pronunciation and accent improvement.
- Interactive Activities: Using diverse educational activities to engage students.
- Practical Application: Addressing all aspects of the language that one might need in daily life, whether as a student or for other personal and professional purposes.

I am a TEFL-certified English teacher who is excited to help you achieve all of the goals you have set for yourself on the journey of learning English. I combine elements of traditional methodologies with some less traditional methods and approaches that I have extracted from my own experience with learning, as I am someone who speaks several different languages and am therefore very familiar with this process and what it takes to get better at a new language. I look forward to showing you how simultaneously efficient and fun learning a new language can be.
