Are you a motivated student who puts in the effort but still isn’t getting the results you want?
Do you feel overwhelmed with where to start, or unsure how to study more effectively?

You're not alone—and the solution often isn’t “working harder,” but working smarter.

My name is Noah. I’m a lecturer, programme coordinator, and student mentor at the University of Amsterdam. Over the past decade, I’ve coached hundreds of students to reach their academic potential—many of whom went on to top universities like Oxford, UCL, Leiden, and careers at international companies.

🎯 Together, We’ll:
Assess your current study habits

Introduce proven techniques for focus, retention, and motivation

Apply those tools to your assignments, essays, and exams

Build a system that works for you, not just the textbook

🎓 My Qualifications:
BA in Psychology – University of British Columbia (UBC)

Two Master’s degrees – Leiden University

Hello,
My name is Paul-Antoine and I live in Amsterdam where I am a student. I am currently studying at the University of Amsterdam in the PPLE bachelor (Politics, Psychology, Law and Economics).
From French parents, I followed all my education in the French system abroad and I speak French fluently.
In these support courses which can be academic or simply an aid to the deepening of the language, I will bring my personal culture and my recent readings which will also allow the student to discover another facet of French literature. In addition, these courses are also open to those who simply want to learn French.

Pourquoi apprendre le Français:

Le français est, avec l’anglais, la seule langue parlée sur les 5 continents
Plus de 200 millions de personnes parlent français sur les 5 continents. Le français est une grande langue de communication internationale. C’est la langue étrangère la plus largement apprise après l’anglais. Le français est aussi la deuxième langue étrangère la plus enseignée au monde après l’anglais, et sur tous les continents. La Francophonie regroupe 68 États et gouvernements. La France dispose enfin du plus grand réseau d’établissements culturels à l’étranger où sont dispensés des cours de français à plus de 750 000 personnes.

Un atout pour sa carrière professionnelle
Parler français et anglais, c’est un atout pour trouver un emploi auprès des nombreuses multinationales françaises et francophones dans des secteurs d’activités variés (distribution, automobile, luxe, aéronautique...). La France, cinquième puissance commerciale, attire des entrepreneurs, des chercheurs et les meilleurs étudiants étrangers.

La découverte d’un univers culturel incomparable
Le français est souvent considéré comme la langue de la culture. Tout cours de français s’accompagne d’un voyage culturel dans le monde de la mode, de la gastronomie, des arts, de l’architecture et de la science. Apprendre le français, c’est aussi avoir accès en version originale aux textes des grands écrivains français comme Victor Hugo ou Marcel Proust et de poètes illustres comme Charles Baudelaire ou Jacques Prévert. C’est pourvoir aussi écouter des acteurs comme Alain Delon ou Juliette Binoche... c’est enfin avoir le plaisir de comprendre et de chanter les chansons d’Édith Piaf ou de Charles Aznavour.

Who? I am a twenty-eight-year-old French and U.S. Anthropology student. I am trained in FLE (French as a Second Language) and have worked for the National French Education Ministry as a Middle School Teacher on the beautiful island of Mayotte. Following that exotic experience, I decided to change course and study Anthropology all the while teaching French as a Second Language on a freelance basis. I moved to the Netherlands just recently and have decided to continue practicing as a French tutor. I have also tutored English classes in France for five years.

What? I offer French or FLE (French as a Second Language) courses based on multiple sources and I regularly renew them because it is important to be in adequacy with today's society. As I just started learning Dutch, I teach in English all the while aiming for 90% French during the class.

Where? Normally I go to the learner's home. For the moment, online courses are also popular.

When? I work every day of the week.

En tant qu'enseignant passionné, j'adore partager mes connaissances avec mes élèves. Mon but est de fournir un enseignement de qualité, car je sais que certains sujets peuvent sembler un peu compliqués. Souvent, cela vient simplement d'une explication qui n'est pas assez claire. Avec moi, vous découvrirez un véritable intérêt pour la matière !

Nous allons travailler ensemble pour atteindre l'excellence académique, en surmontant les obstacles et les difficultés que votre enfant pourrait rencontrer. Les études deviendront une expérience agréable pour lui. En plus des cours, je peux aussi aider à l'orientation scolaire, en identifiant ses préférences et en soulignant les avantages d'une ambition éducative épanouissante.

Voici comment se déroulent généralement nos séances :

1️⃣ Lors des premières séances, nous évaluons le niveau de l'élève pour repérer les lacunes.

2️⃣ Ensuite, nous élaborons un plan personnalisé pour combler ces lacunes, en précisant le nombre d'heures nécessaires, les domaines à travailler, ainsi que des exercices d'entraînement adaptés.

3️⃣ Nous restons en contact régulier avec le professeur de l'élève pour être au courant des exigences actuelles et garantir une approche cohérente.

4️⃣ Je fournis également des examens similaires à ceux qui pourraient être posés en classe, afin de préparer l'élève de manière efficace.

5️⃣ Si besoin, je rédige un rapport régulier, généralement mensuel, pour tenir les parents informés des progrès de leur enfant tout au long de son parcours.

J'adapte ma méthode en fonction des besoins spécifiques de chaque élève, leur offrant ainsi une approche de travail sur mesure.
