I have a BA in Political Science and an MA in North American Studies, both from the University of Leiden, located in the the Netherlands. I tutored in ESL for two years while I attended university. I taught in a classroom setting to adults of varying levels of English fluency. Many of the students I taught were preparing for their IELTs exams. I also conducted one on one tutoring sessions with a student who was preparing for his IELTS exam. With my help, he successfully passed the exam and I continued to tutor him for fluency.
I have provided proofreading and copyediting services for graduate students and amateur authors. This included coaching one student for a presentation he needed to give to secure a research grant. The student secured the grant and I continued to help him with his research paper.
Although I attended university in the Netherlands, I also applied in my home country, England, and the United States. Through this process I became familiar with writing personal essays. I have also taken the SAT and applied to US colleges through the Common App, receiving admission to all five of the UCs I applied to, including UCLA and Berkeley. I am able to help students with personal statements and college prep. I can also offer help to American students applying for schools in Europe and European students applying to US colleges.
I am passionate about education. I have always enjoyed my experiences tutoring and teaching. I like to make my lessons informative and engaging and ensure that I help my students to reach their goals.
