Hi! I’m Molly, and I bring over 5 years of experience working with children in both primary and secondary private, international schools, specializing in the IB and British curriculum. Currently, I work as a Learning Diversity Specialist at an international school, where I support children with various learning needs.

About Me

I’m passionate about reading, English, and phonics, and I truly believe in making learning fun through games and interactive activities. I’ve always known that working with children is where my heart lies, and seeing the moment when a subject or explanation finally clicks for a child brings me so much joy—it’s one of the most rewarding experiences for me.

I moved to the Netherlands six years ago to pursue my Master’s degree, and during my time here, I fell in love with Amsterdam. It didn’t take long for me to decide to stay, find a job, and continue my journey in this beautiful city. My passion for education has only grown since then, and I’m lucky to now have a wealth of qualifications and experience to support my work.

Having worked in both primary and secondary schools, including with students who have special needs, I feel incredibly fortunate to be able to support young people in finding their confidence and success. I’m thrilled to continue learning and growing alongside my students and help them discover the joy of learning along the way.

After tutoring for over 6 years in the Amsterdam area, I am very familiar with the various school curriculums. Having moved around quite a bit, I understand the stress students undergo adapting to new schooling systems. I enjoy working privately with students to build their confidence. I previously was a primary school teacher of all subjects (Grades 1&2) for a private international school in Dubai. I am familiar with international school curriculum and challenges faced by students when moving to a new country.

I have extensive experience with students of all learning levels. I have been privately tutoring for over 10 years now. English is my first language (I am American). I also have experience tutoring at a higher age (as well as university level). I am an excellent writer, editor, and researcher and work part time in UVA's graduate school in the sociology department. I completed my MSc at UVA and undergraduate at UCLA.

Currently, the majority of my students are primary school students who attend the British school or ISA. However, I teach a large number of international school students or older students. I also tutor many students, of various ages, in the Dutch schooling system. I am very comfortable with international school curriculums, however, I also have a good grasp on the Dutch schooling system. While I teach students of various ages and backgrounds, I would consider myself a specialist in primary school students whose second language is English.

I am a MSc student of Environmental Governance (in the department of Human Geography) at the University of Oxford, currently studying (remotely) for exams and based in Amsterdam-West. I graduated with a 1st degree Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy in 2015 and have tutored English Literature, Language, History and Philosophy & Ethics. I also have a qualification to teach English as a foreign language (TEFL), and spent a year teaching English to refugees of war in Greece.

My teaching methodology is very much student dependent. I have previously taught A Level (16-18 years) and GCSE (15-16 years) students, and also one younger student with learning difficulties. My lessons have previously been based on the exam guidelines and specific school syllabi, but have also often taken different directions dependent on student needs. Often this involves recapping more basic topics and concepts, before building upon these new foundations.

The students will receive homework -- often this will be to finish work done in class, or a separate assignment based on that lesson which will allow be to assess how you respond to the class content without my supervision.

I can teach in different areas. Just discuss which area is needed! Keeping an overview when you are taking a test or studying can be difficult, let me help you improve this. Does that sound like something for you? Send me a message

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.

Hi, I'm Caitlin, I was raised bilingually and grew up in Amsterdam. Half my family is from the Netherlands and the other half from South-Africa. Therefore I'm a native speaker in both Dutch and English. Let me help you prepare for your new job, your children with learning English for the first time or if you just feel like becoming a more fluent speaker of English! Let's look at your interests together and I will design our classes so that we discuss topics, articles and other items that are of interest to you! Besides teaching English I have a lot of experience in teaching private violin lessons to both children and adults. I'm a patient teacher that will take the time to walk you through all the steps!

Hallo, ik ben Caitlin, ik ben opgegroeid in Amsterdam en tweetalig opgevoed. De helft van mijn familie komt uit Nederland en de andere helft uit Zuid-Afrika. Daarom spreek ik vloeiend Nederlands en Engels. Laat me je helpen om je voor te bereiden op jouw nieuwe baan, om je kinderen Engels te leren of als het je gewoon leuk lijkt om vloeiender te worden in het Engels! Laten we samen kijken naar jouw interesses zodat we de lessen kunnen inrichten naar jouw wensen! Naast engelse les geven heb ik ook veel ervaring in het geven van privé-lessen in viool zowel aan kinderen als volwassenen. Ik ben een geduldige docent die de tijd zal nemen om je stap voor stap te begeleiden!

We are going to practice your conversation skills and work on your fluency to then focus on the area of vocabulary you are most interested in according to the circumstances. I am a native Italian speaker who lived in the U.K. for over a year. I have a Bachelor’s degree in languages, foreign literatures and techniques of interpreting and translation as well as a C1 proficiency Cambridge certification.

Interactive courses in total immersion or with a little help in French.
Normally I give classes that are more conversation-oriented but depending on the level I can also help with learning writing, grammar, etc.

Learning languages are always more fun when involving an interaction based on personal interests! That's why I could take a more conventional approach to teaching but I prefer an interactive engaging type of class. We can start with basic daily life based conversations to delving into more detailed and specific contexts, to a level where any types of topics can be covered. Please message me for further info!◡̈

(I can also teach in either French or English, although I will try to speak only in Korean during the class!)

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.

As a professionally qualified teacher of Physics and Mathematics, I can assist any student taking pre-University level courses and exams. I have been a specialist in teaching GCSE and A Level Physics at an international school in Amsterdam for around a decade and have a wealth of experience to help students achieve top grades in these courses.

Previous to this I lectured in Physics and Mathematics at a large UK college. I was also a private tutor in the UK for students aged between 8 and 21. I have been a professionally qualified teacher for 10 years (PGCE - UK teaching qualification)

I have a great deal of experience teaching students with a wide range of interests and talents and I am able to make students see the fun in learning the subjects I teach and push the value of being skilful in these fields. Many of my students have gone on to top Universities around the world and it makes me very proud to see my students develop and become passionate about Physics and Mathematics.

I can offer tuition towards specific courses (GCSE, A level, IB) or I can make a custom curricula which addresses any specific needs you feel you may have.
