Tutoring in Research Methods and Essay Writing for university students
I offer tutoring in qualitative and quantitative research methods for the Social Sciences, as well as essay and academic writing support. Drawing on my academic background and professional experience, I can assist students with:
- Learning and applying different research methods effectively
- Understanding and using SPSS for statistical analysis
- Improving essay writing and academic communication skills
- Writing, structuring, and reviewing their theses
With a Bachelor’s degree in International Relations (cum laude) from Leiden University and two Research Master’s degrees—one in Political Communication and one in Political Science—I have a strong foundation in research and academic writing. As a current Teaching Assistant at the University of Amsterdam, I have hands-on experience guiding university students in these areas. Additionally, my work as an Honours Ambassador and Information Officer at Leiden University honed my skills in supporting students at various academic levels.
Offro ripetizioni per studenti universitari sui metodi di ricerca e sulla scrittura di saggi e testi accademici. Grazie alla mia esperienza accademica e professionale, posso offrire supporto nei seguenti ambiti:
- Metodi di ricerca qualitativi e quantitativi
- Statistica e utilizzo di SPSS
- Scrittura di saggi e altri testi accademici
- Strutturazione, scrittura e revisione della tesi
Ho conseguito una laurea triennale in Relazioni Internazionali presso l'Università di Leiden (cum laude) e sto concludendo due Master di Ricerca: uno in Comunicazione Politica e uno in Scienze Politiche. Attualmente lavoro come Assistente Didattica presso l'Università di Amsterdam, dove ho acquisito esperienza diretta nell'assistenza agli studenti universitari. Inoltre, il mio ruolo come Ambasciatrice dell'Honours College e Information Officer all'Università di Leiden mi ha permesso di sviluppare competenze nel supportare studenti in vari percorsi accademici.

I worked with Francesca for improving my ancient Greek reading and I find the lessons useful and fun. She is flexible to different types of learning styles and has a structured way of tutoring. She prepares nice exercises and motivates me to achieve more in my self-study. I recommend Francesca!
I am tutoring university students and adults in English and help them prepare for any test they might have to take (for example, a university test that is required to go in exchange). Among the official English test, I am qualified to help prepare students for the IELTS test.
As I am both Italian both British and I have done all of my bachelor degree in English I am qualified to teach english.
I can tutor kids and students on different academic subjects:
1) for kids in elementary and middle school I can help them doing homework in almost all subjects
2) for students of high school I can give them lessons of Italian, English and History
I have been tutoring middle school and high school students for some time now and, as I like it very much, I would love to continue doing so.
Offro ripetizioni e aiuto con i compiti per bambini delle scuole elementari e medie.

Thesis supervision and support (University, HBO/WO)During my studies in Econometrics at the University of Amsterdam (graduated in 2015, MSc.) and in addition to my job as a consultant, I have always taught mathematics and statistics to secondary school students and university students (HBO and WO) with great pleasure. Since 2017 I have assisted students from different study backgrounds (from civil engineering to psychology) with writing their thesis and since 2022 I work parttime as a math teacher and educational advisor in the Emma Children's Hospital in Amsterdam and I teach private students.
Lessons can be taught in English or Dutch and face-to-face or online, depending on the location.

English lessons: tutoring & language lessons & homework helpHey! My name is Yasmin, I was born in Denmark, mainly raised in the Netherlands, but moved more than 14 times to different countries and cities. I have always attended an international school and received my Bachelor's degree in English & Pre-Law from the University of California Santa Barbara last summer. I have decided to continue my studies and am currently studying international & European law.
I provide English tutoring where we can focus together on whatever you need, such as: writing, speaking, writing essays and creative writing. I can also help with homework or help with public speaking and giving presentations in English, of course. It is important to me that you receive enough help so that you can continue with full self-confidence.
In addition, I am also there for children whose parents want them to be able to master the English language. I do this by having fun and educational conversations with the child.
Hopefully see you soon!

Rico (Ph.D)
Guidance in (scientific) writing and communication.Like no other, I know how difficult it can be to structure a research or project in a short time. You want to distinguish main issues from side issues and be in the final report to-the-point in communicating the results.
From MBO level 2 I went on to a doctorate in astrophysics at the University of Amsterdam. During this path, I have written hundreds of reports, published 6 scientific articles and presented my findings hundreds of times both informally and formally.
In addition, I have been a successful thesis supervisor of 3 bachelor students and 1 master's student.
I would like to help you get the best out of yourself with the help of my knowledge and experience. However, I do not want to do this with a leadership mentality, but from an advisory mentality in which we can put together as equals a nice end product that we both support. I can offer concrete support for your research/project in:
- Setup and planning
- Doing literature study
- Quality assurance
- Presentation and structure/content
- Popularizing the topics with catchy texts
- Review with a critical look
- Give layout and design input
- And much more
Do you think I can help you or do you want to know more? I would love to hear from you!
