Approaches to Learning; Mentoring, Supporting and Guiding

I am a qualified secondary teacher and have taught for 12 years in both the British and IB curriculum. I have teacher qualifications in Drama, Special Educational Needs Co ordination, and am currently working towards a qualification in Play-Therapy. Having previously taught in the UK, Hong Kong, Austria, and China, I have a great deal of experience in understanding student's needs and adapting my teaching to suit each individual. I have a clear and thorough understanding of both the IB curriculum and the British curriculum in the secondary phases. Whilst completing homework and remaining focussed in class can be easy for many students, some students find these 'softer skills' more challenging. I provide a safe space for students to work through and practice their communication skills, to-do lists and action plans, research skills; and I am able to equip them with vital organisation techniques that will help them progress throughout the year. I have 2 years of direct experience teaching these 'Approaches to Learning', as well as leading presentation workshops for students participating in the Diploma Years. I have worked one-on-one with students with ADHD, equipping them with focussing techniques and behaviour strategies. I use my background in Drama to help develop empathy using role-play, that can often make big changes in behaviour.

Extra information

You will need to ensure that you bring your school laptop and any work that you would like to complete. Usually, the best times to meet are after school so that the day is still fresh in your mind.
It is often best to find a cafe or quiet space close to school where we can meet. However, I am able to travel shorter distances if need be.

Mavi
Science and math tutoring for primary and secondary school students
I am Mavi, a physics engineer working at an aerospace company. I have been teaching private lessons at the primary, secondary, high school, and university preparatory levels for 9 years. I teach mathematics, physics, chemistry, and science. I have a good command of the curricula of IB, IGCSE, American, Hong Kong, and international schools. Additionally, I hold the position of president at the Astronomy Society, where I foster my students' interest in astronomy and science beyond the lessons. I prepare the learning environment by incorporating experiments and exploration, moving away from rote education. I often bring experimental materials to class, aiming to make learning memorable through hands-on experiments. As an educational mentor, I approach my students as if they were my siblings, valuing creativity. I have a deep passion for mathematics, physics, and science. I am dedicated to helping students understand and learn because life encompasses both SCIENCE and ART. The more people I can inspire to know, understand, and love mathematics, physics, and chemistry, the more proud I am. Are you curious about how nature works? Let's explore together!

Gamze
Experienced English Teacher (B.S.Ed.) / Gifted Education Mentor (M.S.Ed.)
Hi there! I am an English teacher with 10 years of experience. In addition to teaching at school, I give interactive and holistic English lessons to groups or individuals. My academic field is the education of gifted students. I also conduct out-of-school support activities with these students and provide counseling to parents. Before we start working together, I offer a free initial meeting to get to know you and understand your needs. I am based in Haarlem, the Netherlands but I also offer online classes all over the world. I believe that any kind of effective learning is an adventure that begins with a personal bond and ends with autonomy. Peter Drucker says, "Learning is a lifelong process of keeping abreast of change, and the most pressing task is to teach people how to learn." In this age, every paradigm is changing very fast, so the teacher must help students find out how they learn best. Instead of continuing to deliberately learn something for years, let's find this "know-how" for English and ourselves together!

Simon
Language Learning Coach- Learn how to learn a language, use it with ease and have great conversations
“I feel stuck” These words I hear again and again, from beginners to advanced. The majority of students who come to me are frustrated. They spent many years studying languages at school. They’ve spent both their time and lots of money. Only to find themselves still struggling to form a sentence. Still struggling to be able to understand a native speaker. If you’re here then I’m assuming you share some of these same struggles. You get confused trying to memorize grammar rules, remember vocabulary, and makes sentances. You don’t know how to learn every day. You get distracted and then you feel too tired to keep going. Believe it or not, I’ve been there too and to be honest, it sucks to have another language is to possess a second soul Charlemage Now, I want you to trust me on your language journey Imagine finally knowing exactly what to do when you sit at your desk to learn a language. Imagine knowing how to learn grammar, how to remember vocabulary and make it stick, how to speak, and how to write beautiful sentences. Imagine going on holiday somewhere and interacting with locals. Laughing, eating, dancing and living life in a different language.
