This class is for everyone who wants to improve his/her English and German skills. I do not specifically specialise on tutoring for specific exams (I can obviously do that as well) but I want to offer a class that is customised to the students needs. I always try to teach in a fun and engaging manner with real-life context. People learn best by having a positive attitude towards a subject, therefore, I see it as important to establish a positive rapport with my students and spark their interest in the English and German language.

After five years of teaching at international schools as the homeroom teacher, I understand how the school subjests are organized and the tests SAT, GED, GRE, and GMAT exams are focused.

I hope to create a classroom for the students to explore and discover the world around them. Whether it's science, math, or music, the students will learn through the channel of English. Experiments, discussions and art-work are involved in the class while the subject goals assigned from the school are reached at the same time.

English is more than a language skill to master, but a media to all the knowledge the world has to offer.

I am an expat in the Netherlands, with a bachelor’s degree from Honours College in University College Utrecht in Psychology and Neuroscience as well as Linguistics and now doing my Master’s in Artificial Intelligence! I have lived in many different places while growing up, thus it helped me master my English skills to a native level. I would love to help you improve your language skills - by improving your reading and conversational as well as written English.

School cancelled? Kids bored at home? Looking for someone to help keep your child's English skills up to scratch while in lockdown? Or, perhaps you want to use this time to practice and perfect your own English skills?
Well look no further!
I am an Australian native English speaker offering assistance to those learning the language.
I received top grades for Advanced and Extension English studies in Australia, and continued onto University to study Science and Psychology.
I have experience in tutoring students in English, Biology and History, and am able to draw upon teaching resources to help extend lessons and your knowledge of the English language.

Are you looking for a qualified native English teacher (British) with extensive teaching and business experience? If so, I would love to help you!

I have a very simple teaching philosophy. Every single lesson must be challenging, rewarding, and fun – as the best way to learn is with a smile on your face. I adapt our lessons together to your unique needs and goals, including:

• improving your accent and pronunciation;
• helping you avoid steenkool English and typical ‘Dunglish’ words;
• broadening your vocabulary; and
• perfecting your use of tenses.

Most important of all, I can help improve your confidence, which is the key to learning any language.

A speciality of mine is Business English, so I can also help with everything from preparing for an interview or speaking in meetings, to giving a presentation.

While my classes are 100% in English, I can also speak Dutch and Spanish. This gives me a real insight as to why students make certain mistakes, and how to best avoid them.

My name is Sam and i'm a 28 year old Irish man living in Amsterdam! I have a CELTA certificate in English teaching and over three years of experience giving courses online and privately, both to individual students and groups. My students have been both beginners and advanced learners, with very different reasons for learning the language! I also have a speaking level of the French language!

To begin, we can find your needs and objectives for learning English and from there we can progress in our work together! I have a degree in Criminal Justice studies and another diploma in Social studies, so if you're needs are specific to law/humanities I can meet any needs - I have also taught tech English and business English with many of my students.

Personally, I am a writer, currently working on my first book I hope to publish! I love creativity and anything to do with languages, which helps me to create courses that are interesting for any student - I have a patient, kind and understanding approach to learning English that helps my students to feel relaxed enough to make those extra steps necessary to improve! If you are interested, send me a message and we can discuss your needs and see if we would be a good team together! I

I’m a native English speaker from the US and a former international school teacher with over eight years of private tutoring experience in Amsterdam. I teach adults and children, from complete beginners to people who already speak English but want to feel more comfortable using it. I’ve also completed additional training in teaching English as a second language.

I especially enjoy teaching adults. You might want to feel more comfortable speaking with your child’s teachers, meeting new people, making appointments or using English at work. We’ll talk about what you need English for and build our lessons around that, with time for conversation as well as grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation and writing.

Having moved countries myself, I understand how tiring it can be to settle somewhere new when everyday conversations take extra effort. Lessons are a place to practise, ask questions and work through things you find difficult without feeling rushed. You’re welcome to bring along an email you need to write, something you’ve heard but didn’t understand, or a situation you’d like to practise for. I’m also happy to share what I’ve learned from living in Amsterdam over the years.

For children and teenagers, I combine English teaching with their schoolwork, helping them develop the language they need to understand lessons, complete assignments and participate in class. I’ve worked with students in Dutch, British and other international schools, and have particular experience supporting children who are new to learning in English. I also specialise in working with students with ADHD and other learning differences.

Before moving to Amsterdam, I taught Grades 1 and 2 at the International School of Choueifat in Dubai. Alongside tutoring, I now work as a writer and editor. I hold a BA from UCLA and an MSc from the University of Amsterdam.

Lessons are available in person in Amsterdam or online. Feel free to send me a message about your current level and what you’d like help with!

With English being a world language it has become an integral part of our society, especially in work and study related areas. Taking on English lessons with me will help you prepare for any language obstacles you have had up until now. My teaching methods vary from client to client and depend on their current language skills; writing essay type reports for school, reading and understanding the book all your friends talk about, or just to be able to have a fluent conversation, whatever the problem we can work through it together.

Are you tired of understanding English but not being able to speak it confidently?
Do you want to work abroad, change countries, or grow your career, but feel your English is holding you back?
Do meetings, emails, or small talk in English still make you nervous?

In my English classes, we focus on real-life and professional English you actually need for speaking, confidence, and clear communication.
With my international business experience for over 9 years, I help you use English naturally for work, travel, and everyday life in a supportive and practical way.
I am also a very chatty friend, so you will practice your speaking a lot.

I cannot wait to talk with you in a common language ! :)
