My approach varies depending on the student’s needs and learning style. I push my students to think independently and to apply abstract concepts to real-world scenarios. I start with topics that the student is fairly comfortable with, progressing slowly to new and more complex areas as their understanding grows. I tend to use past exam paper questions on a particular topic to check understanding as we're going through the topic. Once a student has grasped a topic, I shift my focus to exam technique: what to look for in exam questions, common pitfalls, and how to start tackling the more challenging questions. I believe that a clear and systematic approach is essential when tacking exams in the sciences.

Over
I am a 23-year-old Belgian-Irish student who has just started a 4 year PhD at Imperial College London in the research area "The Molecular and Cellular Basis of Infection” with a focus on viruses.

I grew up a little all over the world having been born in South Africa and having lived in Swaziland, Poland, Bosnia, Belgium, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Timor Leste, and Singapore where I completed my International Baccalaureate at the United World College. After completing my IB in 2014, I moved to Oxford to attend a 4 year-integrated Master’s course in Biochemistry at the University of Oxford. After graduating from Oxford in the summer of 2018, I moved to Munich Germany for a virology internship at the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich. In February 2019 I began tutoring full time before the start of my PhD in October 2019.

I am an extremely active person and enjoy a variety of sports. I used to sail competitively internationally in the Laser 4.7 and Laser Radial Classes, and still sail during the holidays. Since being at university my love for rugby has also grown. However given my susceptibility to injury and clumsiness, I now only stick to Touch Rugby. I also boulder/rock climb as often as I can.

I have experience teaching and tutoring students aged 10-19 and I am comfortable with the iGCSE, GCSE, IB, A-Level, and EB (European Baccalaureate) syllabuses. I have in-depth experience tutoring both the iGCSE and IB in Maths, Chemistry, Physics, Biology, and Geography. My approach varies depending on the student’s needs and learning style. I push my students to think independently and to apply abstract concepts to real-world scenarios. I start with topics that the student is fairly comfortable with, progressing quickly to new and more complex areas as their understanding grows. I tend to use past exam paper questions on a particular topic to check understanding as we're going through the topic. For IB and the IGCSE, I have made summary notes on each unit topic and have compiled past exam paper questions on that topic with answers. Once a student has grasped a topic, I shift my focus to exam technique: what to look for in exam questions, common pitfalls, and how to start tackling the more challenging questions. I believe that a clear and systematic approach is essential when studying for exams in the sciences.

I am currently doing a PhD in infectious disease at Imperial College London. I graduated from the University of Oxford with a Masters degree in Biochemistry in June 2018 and a bachelor degree in June 2017. I completed my IB diploma in 2014 receiving 7/7 in Higher Level Maths, Physics, and Chemistry and Standard Level Geography and French.
Leservaring
Tutoring Experience:
I have over 5 years of tutoring experience in Maths, Chemistry, Physics, Biology, and Geography. I tutored part time during my undergraduate years at university, and I tutored full time post-graduation from February 2019-September 2019. During my time in Munich, I built up an international tutoring network of over 15 full time students. Many of my students attend international schools and I have tutored the following subjects: IB HL and SL Chemistry, IB HL Physics, IB HL and SL Biology, IB HL and SL Maths, IB SL Maths Studies, iGCSE double and triple science, iGCSE 0580 and 0607 Maths, iGCSE Geography, and iGCSE French. I have also tutored several students who follow the European Baccalaureate programme in Maths, Chemistry, and Biology. I have had 2 students under the age of 14, to help support them in Maths and general sciences.

Teaching Experience:
I worked as a teacher at Oxford Royale Academy in Oxford immediately after graduation. I taught Chemistry, Physics and Academic writing to classes of students aged 16-19. The class sizes were between 5-25 students. I really enjoy teaching a classroom of students, but I prefer the more personalised teaching approaches I can use with smaller groups of students.

I am specialized (>5 years of experience) in tutoring math for school (any level, but preferably higher level), including competitive exams such as the SAT, GRE, GMAT, and the IIT-JEE.

This class is aimed to train
1) high-school students undergoing VWO or an IB curriculum, who are having problems following math at school or university,
2) Anyone who wishes to take the VWO Math-A/B/C entrance examinations by Boswell or CCVX and wants to train for that.

Personally, I am currently working as a Quantitative Researcher of stock markets, and therefore analytical math is also a part of my job.

The classes could be rigorous or lenient depending on the student. There will be periodic homework and I'll make sure that the student achieves her/his desired goals.

Your child has difficulty with math, physics, chemistry or natural sciences. It cannot process the subject matter and you want to do something about it.

As a teacher (engineer with a certificate of pedagogical competence), I have been teaching mathematics, physics, chemistry and natural sciences in secondary education for 25 years.
I am an independent teacher in secondary occupation and recognized by the Flemish Community.
Because of my experience and empathy I can make the abstract terminology and exercises that your child does not understand anything understandable.

I tutor students from secondary education to higher education students. From Pythagoras to quadratic equations, logarithmic and exponential functions, limits, derivatives, integrals, ... Everything is possible!

Students preparing for the examination board often experience problems in the subjects of mathematics, chemistry or physics. Through intensive guidance I can greatly increase the chances of success. I have a lot of experience with the online course of "Inzicht", Geogebra, interpreting subject sheets, ... The tutoring can take place both on weekdays and in the weekend.

Students with dyscalculia are remedied by practicing the subject matter, using tips, mnemonics and a lot of patience. Experience shows that the way of mathematical thinking in dyscalculia is different and therefore requires a more structured, step-by-step approach.

References are available.

The tutoring sessions are given online every day via Zoom. Zoom has a handy online board where we can write at the same time. It is as if we are sitting next to each other and writing on the same sheet of paper.
If you would like tutoring, please download the Zoom app and send me the email address you linked to it.

The emphasis during tutor sessions is placed on the student being able to apply the material, so that the student goes to class and to exams with confidence.

My friendly, understanding nature allows me to create a comfortable environment where students feel free to ask as many questions as needed.


A few (translated) reviews:
________

"My daughter Lisa received 5 physics tutoring sessions from Timen, which were very helpful to her. Timen is very good at painting an overall picture of a task which made the material much more comprehensible to her. Initially she had a 6.8 for her VWO school exam, in the end she got an 8.8 for her central written exam!"
- Yvonne

________

"I took 6 lessons with Timen and in that time he taught me the basic rules of mathematics, the subject I had to pass for my pre-master. And I succeeded. Timen is able to explain clearly and comes up with a lot of good and simple examples, so that you can understand the basics and then move on. Also, he is often available, so I could get 2 extra lessons just before my exam for the last questions I had."
- Jens

________

"I had tutoring for my pre-master's at the University of Groningen. Timen is very patient and can explain well. I completed the subject with a passing grade, and am very happy with that! I only had a few lessons, but this helped a lot."
- A.

________

"I am pursuing a pre-master's degree at RUG and received tutor sessions from Timen on average twice a week and eventually completed the course with a nine. Timen is very patient and very knowledgeable. He adapted well to the teaching style that suited me best. In addition, he respected the fact that I was still a real beginner in math. He indicates well his limits in what he can/can't help in. Highly recommended!"

"We were at our wit's end..... Our son Jason was always our math prodigy in elementary school and all of a sudden in high school (havo/mavo) things went completely wrong. He had always worked hard, studied a lot and still only got poor grades. His self-confidence had already plummeted. Then we went looking for someone for math tutoring, we wanted to try to pull out all the stops. We ended up (fortunately) with Timen. Jason has so far had 8x tutoring sessions with Timen and see there......of grades like 4.1/2.9/4.3 today Jason came home with 9 (!!!!) Timen can explain very well in a very calm, clear way. Their have a good click with each other and Jason has completely regained his confidence thanks Timen. We are going to give it an extra push again before the final test and we have full confidence that Timen will prepare him well for it. THANK YOU TIMEN"

Hello students! My name is Remco, I have been working in technology for several years and I enjoy helping students and making them enthusiastic about various subjects. Since the beginning of this year I have been doing one-on-one homework supervision and exam preparation for secondary school students at all levels. My specialty is in the technical subjects, but I have a broad interest so that I can also help with other subjects, only in the field of languages I stick to Dutch and English. Let me know if you want to meet up sometime!

About me:
I am a mechanical engineer with about 8 years of work experience in the offshore and aerospace industry. During my studies I had many part-time jobs where I helped students with tutorials and I always enjoyed that very much.

That is why I have picked up teaching a bit again and have been teaching various subjects at all levels of secondary school for six months. I find it very interesting to see what works well with students and like to use animations to convey knowledge when possible. In addition, I think humor is very important because school is serious enough!

My name is Arjen. I tutor and give exam training in math and physics for upper secondary education (Dutch HAVO/VWO, IB, or other similar programmes). As an Aerospace Engineer, I help students not only with solving problems, but especially with understanding the “why” behind the theory.

I start with a short diagnosis: where is the real difficulty? Based on this, I create a personal learning plan that I share with the student. In this way we work in a focused way on those areas where most is to be gained. During the sessions, the focus is on recognizing structure and analyzing problems step by step, so that students become more independent and their confidence gets a boost.

In my explanations, I regularly use examples from technology and engineering. By linking abstract theory to real applications, it becomes clearer where the mathematics or physics comes from and what it is needed for, and things often suddenly “click”.

I can give lessons both at home and via an online connection. In the latter case, I do this using a tablet, allowing you to follow my explanations and examples live on your screen.

After the the lessons, I create personal practice exercises when needed, tailored to the student’s level and learning goals. In this way, we work not only towards better results in the short term, but also towards a strong foundation for future studies.

Math
I tutor mathematics to students who want extra support or want to improve their results. During the lessons, I explain difficult topics step by step in a clear and calm manner. We work together on understanding, exercises, and efficient solution methods so that you gain more confidence and become stronger in the subject.

Physics
Physics becomes much simpler when you understand the logic behind the formulas. During my lessons, you will learn not only how to apply theory and formulas, but above all how to solve problems in a structured way. We practice together with examples and exam questions so that you truly understand the material and are better prepared for tests and exams.

Economy
I help students clearly understand economic concepts and theories and apply them correctly. During the lessons, we work on gaining insight into themes such as supply and demand, markets, inflation, enterprises, and financial analysis. Through practical examples and exercises, economics becomes clearer and easier to apply.

To play chess
These chess lessons are suitable for beginners and advanced players who want to improve their level. You will learn important principles such as opening techniques, tactics, strategy, endgames, and positional awareness. During the lessons, we analyze games and practice practical situations so that you learn to play stronger and more confidently.

"We were at our wit's end..... Our son Jason was always our math prodigy in elementary school and all of a sudden in high school (havo/mavo) things went completely wrong. He had always worked hard, studied a lot and still only got poor grades. His self-confidence had already plummeted. Then we went looking for someone for math tutoring, we wanted to try to pull out all the stops. We ended up (fortunately) with Timen. Jason has so far had 8x tutoring sessions with Timen and see there......of grades like 4.1/2.9/4.3 today Jason came home with 9 (!!!!) Timen can explain very well in a very calm, clear way. Their have a good click with each other and Jason has completely regained his confidence thanks Timen. We are going to give it an extra push again before the final test and we have full confidence that Timen will prepare him well for it. THANK YOU TIMEN"

Hello students! My name is Remco, I have been working in technology for several years and I enjoy helping students and making them enthusiastic about various subjects. Since the beginning of this year I have been doing one-on-one homework supervision and exam preparation for secondary school students at all levels. My specialty is in the technical subjects, but I have a broad interest so that I can also help with other subjects, only in the field of languages I stick to Dutch and English. Let me know if you want to meet up sometime!

About me:
I am a mechanical engineer with about 8 years of work experience in the offshore and aerospace industry. During my studies I had many part-time jobs where I helped students with tutorials and I always enjoyed that very much.

That is why I have picked up teaching a bit again and have been teaching various subjects at all levels of secondary school for six months. I find it very interesting to see what works well with students and like to use animations to convey knowledge when possible. In addition, I think humor is very important because school is serious enough!

My name is Arjen. I tutor and give exam training in math and physics for upper secondary education (Dutch HAVO/VWO, IB, or other similar programmes). As an Aerospace Engineer, I help students not only with solving problems, but especially with understanding the “why” behind the theory.

I start with a short diagnosis: where is the real difficulty? Based on this, I create a personal learning plan that I share with the student. In this way we work in a focused way on those areas where most is to be gained. During the sessions, the focus is on recognizing structure and analyzing problems step by step, so that students become more independent and their confidence gets a boost.

In my explanations, I regularly use examples from technology and engineering. By linking abstract theory to real applications, it becomes clearer where the mathematics or physics comes from and what it is needed for, and things often suddenly “click”.

I can give lessons both at home and via an online connection. In the latter case, I do this using a tablet, allowing you to follow my explanations and examples live on your screen.

After the the lessons, I create personal practice exercises when needed, tailored to the student’s level and learning goals. In this way, we work not only towards better results in the short term, but also towards a strong foundation for future studies.
