I am probably the most enthusiastic and versatile tutor in Amsterdam!

I have been tutoring students for over 10 years at various levels, though most have been middle and highschool students (the latter preparing for IB/ AP/ A-level/ IGCSC exams).

I have several relevant degrees (PhD and MSc in financial justice from University of Amsterdam, BS and MS in engineering from the University of Pennsylvania [Ivy League]).

I mainly teach math (any level, ranging from simple arithmetic to advanced university-level calculus), though have also helped students prepare for highschool level Chemistry and Economics exams.

What makes me a UNIQUE tutor (in addition to the extensive background) is my PERSONAL approach to tutoring. I customise my teaching approach to each and every student, spanning the way I present material & work through problems, the length and structure of our sessions, and the type of feedback the student needs to thrive. I also give all of my students my personal phone number so that they can contact me OUTSIDE OF HOURS at NO COST if they are struggling while studying on night(s) leading up to exams!

It's not just about covering material; I firmly believe that tutoring is about tailorizing the learning experience so that students self-develop the necessary tools to thrive in their courses and eventually DONT NEED a tutor. Read less

My standard approach is to help students reach the answers THEMSELVES rather than providing them with solutions. I typically take a long time to ask students to unpack every step in a problem (or justify every assumption made), so that even if it takes us 60 minutes to get through 1 problem, they are fully equipped to tackle 50 more problems without me there!
