Multilingual historian with a passion for education

Goeiedag! Hello! Bonjour! I am a passionate teacher (she/her) from Belgium. My love for history started in the 4th grade, when I watched a documentary on Egypt and I've been hooked ever since. My affection for teaching has its origin in helping my younger sister with her homework. There is nothing more satisfying to me than watching the sparks of understanding being lit in my students' eyes.

I have a Bachelor's degree in History with a minor in Egyptology (magna cum laude), a Master's degree in Ancient History (summa cum laude), and a teaching degree specializing in History, Art, and Music (magna cum laude). Since graduating, I've been a teacher in a variety of subjects to students from grade 7 to seniors for 6 years. I've also taught teacher training for elementary school at a college for 3 years. In 2019, I moved to the USA to be with my husband. Since receiving my Green Card in 2020, I've been an author of school books for elementary school.

Dutch is my native language. Do you want to learn from someone who's been speaking Dutch her entire life? I'm the woman for the job!

I have a degree for teaching Art History and in an previous job, I used to explain to future teachers how to make Art History fun.

History is my specialty. I've been in love with it since I was a child and I have followed this passion throughout both my university studies and my career.

Teaching is my true love and I can't wait to help you! If you have any questions or requests, please contact me.
