About Me

I am a creative and enthusiastic Master's graduate with experience in scientific research, science communication and developing teaching materials for science education. I have strong interpersonal skills and hold a dedicated approach when performing any task.

I am currently looking for an opportunity to share my knowledge, and help anyone to improve not only their maths and science knowledge but provide tips and ticks that will help you with any future learning!

Education

Bachelors in Science - Cell and Molecular Biology, Newcastle University, UK - 2:1
Masters in Science - Cancer, Stem cells and Developmental Biology, Utrecht University, NL

Experience / Qualifications

My mother tutors English language to primary and secondary students in Hong Kong. I have assisted her with private tutoring as well as prepare lessons and mark homework set for students.

Moreover, I have taken several courses about how to communicate science, designing educational material for science subjects and have internship experience in developing an educational product for secondary school students about the plastic pollution problem.
Want to brush up on your science and/or maths? Need some extra explanation on those harder problems? Looking for someone who will patiently explain and go through concepts? I will take a patient approach when tutoring and encourage active participation. Include fun active learning material that will engage the student and apply science and mathematical concepts into real life situations; to stimulate their conceptual knowledge and set them problems to apply their new skills.

Sandra
American Native English Teacher - English Lessons for Children and Teenagers
Hello parents! My name is Sandra. I am a native English speaker from New York State. I have a USA teaching license and a Bachelor's Degree in Childhood Inclusive Education (Grades K-6 and Students with Disabilities) from the State University of New York at Fredonia. My experiences include teaching at primary international schools in Belgrade, Serbia for 2 years and 3 years at international schools in The Hague, Netherlands. I have worked at two IB primary schools. Alongside teaching at international schools, I have 8 years of experience teaching English. I also have experience teaching grade 1 and 3 in elementary schools in New York State. I have taught children from 2-17 years old and adults. My students range in levels from beginners who are new to learning English, to fluent English speakers that need support or would like to further excel or maintain their fluency. Based on my experiences, I have learned to adjust my teaching style based on different students' needs, cultures, socioeconomic backgrounds, and learning abilities. Lessons are provided to children and teenagers. Lessons are customized to the learning needs of your child. Whether that be learning English for the first time or practicing improvement of speaking, reading, comprehension, pronunciation, listening, writing, grammar, etc. Lessons can be aimed towards learning a topic such as food, animals, sports, emotions, and more. For children who are fluent English speakers, tutoring can be given to further excel in particular areas. Subjects that interest the student such as science, history or world topics can be incorporated into the lesson to broaden their knowledge. Support can also be provided in learning organizational skills, research, and mini projects for older children. I am available to help with studying, homework, or school projects. For online learning, I use a variety of platforms, websites, educational games, and e-books to reach the learning goals of my students. Additional homework can be provided if requested. Depending on the students age, lesson duration is adjusted. If you are looking for lessons for siblings, please reach out to me to discuss the best schedule for your children. My aim is to create a positive and enjoyable learning environment for all my students. I hope you can join my English lessons! Please reach out to me if you have any questions. I can provide my resume or reference letters if requested. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Vuoi parlare l'italiano? Italiano con Rob per tutti
Ciao, my name is Roberto :) 
I graduated in Political and Economic Science at the University of Milan. After working for a year for an American company in Milan, I moved to Australia, where I have worked, studied and traveled for two years.
It has been an incredible experience! I had the opportunity of visiting beautiful places, discovering so many different cultures and developed myself from a personal and professional point of view.
Since two years, I have been living in Haarlem - a wonderful city close to Amsterdam - and to the coast 🌊 - in the Netherlands. I love teaching and helping people to find out more about Italian culture, history, and arts. I would love to use all the modern techniques of teaching that I learned and practiced them with you. Teaching is an extraordinary passion! Parliamo italiano!

Karina
Spanish classes from beginner to advanced by a native speaker
I believe that learning languages should be fun and entertaining, not just a chore, so I have individual program for each student that I create based on the factors discussed before we start. After our first class I will create a program that I believe is best suitable, however it can be altered and negotiated per your request. Spanish is second most spoken language in the world, not only is it useful it's also very beautiful and rich with unique culture. If you always wanted to visit Latin America and be able to speak with locals, love Spanish music and wish you could understand it or simply need preparation for exam or enhancing your professional skills, I can help you with that!

Math or Physics Tutoring with a dose of fun (Online or in Utrecht)
Hey! Do you have troubles with homework/school or just understanding basic concepts? Or your kids need some extra training to be the best of the best? I would love to be of help. In my online classes, we have discussions and watch videos to figure out what exactly is the missing link to supreme confidence in the subject. And ofcourse, solving problems is taken seriously to gain mastery. Usually my classes are in advance of what is going on in school. This helps the student be prepared in advance for the class. Normal routine can also be followed on the other hand.

Joanna

Each class can be tailored to the students individual needs. This class is for anybody who just wants to improve speaking/writing, as well as for those just starting out. Lessons can be given online, or in person. Greek is a language that is increasingly spoken, and is useful in many aspects of life, including but not limited to: biology, geometry, medical terminology, etc. With Greece's economy growing, it is an ideal destination to move either as an expat, digital nomad, or as a startup company. I look forward to helping you on your journey of acquiring this language!
