About Me

Learning a language is a great gateway to delve into the world's cultural richness, be it your own or a culture you encounter. Having spent my childhood moving from city to city and living in several countries, crossing oceans and borders for my study, this has become one of my fundamental questions: How can people from various backgrounds meet each other and live together harmoniously? As a language teacher, I encourage my students to open themselves up to embrace diverse cultural richness through active and student-led learning with the unique teaching methods I established.

We all have some kind of creativity that we want to express, but sometimes it's hard to go it alone. This class is for people who want to improve their abilities at writing in English.

If your child can use some extra support with, for example, counting, (reading) reading or writing, I would like to offer my help.

I have been giving tutoring to children of different ages for a few years now. I also have a lot of experience as a babysitter and as an au pair, so I'm used to working with children and helping them get ahead and helping them see how much they can actually do!

Whether you are struggling with your structure, your language or the cohesion of your academic piece, I am happy to help you as a sounding board, partner and guide.

My experience in academic writing spans 5 different academic pieces of writing across 3 degrees and several journal articles, with my LLM paper nominated for an award.

I am aware of all the pitfalls one can encounter in this really challenging process and am therefore transparent with regards to not only the quality of the paper but also your work ethic in order that you can then obtain the best piece of work possible.

Japanese language, Japanese culture, anime etc has been increasingly popular in many countries worldwide lately. Japanese is a difficult yet very beautiful and interesting language to learn. If you would like to learn Japanese, and learn about the life in Japan in general, you came to the right place! I give fun easy going lessons by mostly encouraging you to speak, because taking it into practice and talking is the quickest way to learn! It's a safe non judgemental space to make mistakes as much as you have to!

I grew up in-between Mexico and the Netherlands and completed a bilingual education in English and Spanish. I passed my GCSE examinations after Grade 10 and attained a final score of 42/45 points in the IB in 2021. After graduating from a United World College, I move to The Hague to study at Leiden University, where I obtained a BA in International Law (summa cum laude).

I started tutoring at 14, but only began doing it regularly four years later at the IB level. My professional experience has also included college-level student assistantships. My approach to learning is influenced by my own diverse background. I have studied under different systems in the Mexico, the Netherlands and France, which allowed me to experiment with various learning methods and discover what works and what doesn't. When it comes to the IB, I especially understand how to structure written assignments (including IAs, TOK essay and the EE) and have several tips to achieve the highest results.

I strongly believe that each student has a unique way of learning, and my objective is to discover what works best for you. Together, we can make the most of our time and make the learning process enjoyable and effective.

I’m from Hiroshima, Japan! I live in Den Haag. We can practice talking Japanese in person or online.

I am 30 years old and from Hiroshima Prefecture. I have been living in the Netherlands for two years. While living in the Netherlands, I think it can be difficult to find opportunities to practice Japanese, but I would love to create opportunities for you to practice and improve your Japanese skills.
