Dedicated to creating inspiring educational experiences for students across the Netherlands
With over 8 years of experience as a private tutor in Amsterdam, I specialize in creating personalized learning experiences that inspire and motivate students to reach their full potential.
After completing my Master's degree in Education at the University of Amsterdam and teaching at international schools across the Netherlands, I discovered my passion for one-on-one tutoring where I can truly make a difference in students' academic journeys.

Hear from students and parents who have experienced the difference personalized tutoring can make
Working with Emma transformed my daughter's approach to mathematics. What was once a source of anxiety became her favorite subject. The personalized attention and beautiful explanations made complex concepts accessible. Her grades improved from a 5 to an 8 within just one semester!
As an international student new to the Dutch educational system, I was struggling to adapt. Emma not only helped me with my subjects but also provided cultural context that made everything make sense. Her study skills techniques were so good that I now use them at university. I couldn't have achieved my diploma without her guidance.
I always thought I wasn't "good at languages" until I started working with Emma. Her patient approach and creative teaching methods made learning French enjoyable for the first time. The way she connected the language to real-life situations and my personal interests created such a beautiful learning experience. I'm now studying abroad in Paris!
